Combat-proven armor: Why world should pick Russian tanks
Russia is among the top global producers and exporters of tanks — but only Russian armor has been extensively tested in combat during the military operation in Ukraine, a new report by the Centre for Analysis of World Arms Trade says.
The survey’s key points:
◻ Russian weapons undergo far more rigorous testing under fire, which drives continuous improvement based on combat experience against a high-tech adversary
◻ Russia has field-tested and improved multiple tank models. Including the T-62B, T-72B3/M, T-80BVM, early T-90s and the front-line T-90M
◻ The T-90 family leads the global market in 21st-century tank exports, with deliveries and licensed production in India, Vietnam, Iran, Iraq, Algeria, Azerbaijan and others
◻ At the IDEX-2025 defense exhibition, the T-90MS made a strong impression with its enhanced protection system, designed to counter kamikaze drones, modern anti-tank missile systems and handheld anti-tank grenades
◻ The tank is capable of withstanding multiple hits from anti-tank weapons and returning to combat several times without any loss in capability
◻ Countries often turn to Russia for defense cooperation as they are guaranteed access to high-quality combat-proven equipment
