It's just a toy, a dummy. No one will give the newest technology.
It'll soon show Armata tank - so it will be a combat unit, not a publicity stunt.

Russian tanks are best since 1940's.
people who have the choice buying Russian tanks. Only those who have no choice, who is ordered from the West - they take expensive and inefficiency in fighting Western tanks (does not apply to the German tanks, because the Germans, like the Russian is a good school).

Americans can fight only with the natives, which helps no one. If they intermeddle somewhere where there is help, they quickly kicking a$s.
Their tanks are good in Hollywood films. On the streets of their quenched with an RPG-7. They can not shoot missiles from the muzzle and do not have dynamic armor, it's just a coffin on wheels.
Leopard - is another matter. And even despite the fact that Americans learned to build tanks from the Germans - still build crap. Crap of radioactive elements.

It looks 'great' but how it will actually do in the battlefield, that's something else.

you are typical russian

 

[That Guy]

Not going to lie, I was skeptical at first, but this video just made me change my opinion.

 

[azfar]

nice design but looks like a toy

 

[vostok]

Yes. I am.
Russian defeated Napoleon and watered their horses in the Seine. Russian defeated Hitler and hung the Red flag on the Reichstag. And destroyed a dozen smaller conquerors.
What do Americans so adored by you? Dropped an atomic bomb on women and children? Continue to bomb peaceful cities around the planet? What a heroism!!!
