Description
The T-72BM "Rogatka" is the newest version of the T-72. First shown at the 2006 Russian Arms Expo, it is upgraded with new fire control system including a gunner's thermal sight, "Nakidka" camouflage kit, new 125 mm 2A46M-5 main gun with muzzle reference system, V-92S2 1,000 hp diesel engine and new "Relikt" 3rd generation explosive reactive armour which is claimed to be twice as effective as Kontakt-5.
So this is basically the "T-90 conservation package for third world country's?"
PS: Am I the only one who thinks that the only reason this upgrade package is introduce is because not many people have shown interested in buying the T-90?
i wouldnt mind buying a couple you know for those long trips when im on holiday LOL
fun fact T72BV is the T90.New designation due to poor showing in Iraq war, as no one wouldwant t72s that woul get stomped easily, would they? T90 builds off of t72 with T80 FCS and turret. T72BM is basicly comparable to the original T90 or T90A in terms of capability, maybe even better due to Relikit ERA.
It's T72BU not BV.
