The Russian Army curtailed T-90 orders beginning in 2012 to prepare for the arrival of the new tank. The study resulted in the Object 148 based on the T-95 (itself based on the Object 187). History Īfter the cancellation of the T-95 in 2010, Uralvagonzavod began the OKR Armata (Armament) design study. In December 2021 the Russian state conglomerate Rostec stated that serial production had commenced, with 'more than 40' Armata tanks anticipated to be delivered to Russian troops after 2023. The tanks are planned to only be officially transferred following completion of all state tests. However, as of 2021, the Russian state-owned TASS media agency claimed the Armata had been expected to begin serial production in 2022, with delivery of a test batch of 100 to the 2nd Guards Tamanskaya Motor Rifle Division expected to begin in 2022. By 2018, production and fiscal shortfalls delayed this to 2025, before Russia announced the apparent cancellation of the main production run on 30 July 2018. The Russian Army initially planned to acquire 2,300 T-14s between 20. The T-14 Armata (Russian: Т-14 «Армата» industrial designation Russian: Объект 148, romanized: Ob'yekt 148, lit.'Object 148') is a Russian main battle tank (MBT) based on the Armata Universal Combat Platform.
