Things Get Real as Russia's T-14 Armata Tanks Start Battle Tests

Russia's 21st century T-14 Armata battle tanks have commenced combat tests displaying their unique features on firing ranges.

The T-14 Armata, rolled out for the first time during the 2015 Victory Parade in Moscow, brandishes a constellation of characteristics which make it an author of a new chapter in the battle tank industry.

Thanks to stealth technology, the machine is practically invisible in infrared and other spectrums. It is equipped with an active electronically scanned array (AESA, or active phased array radar, APAR) similar to the one designed for Russia's T-50 PAK FA 5thgeneration aircraft.
