The first photos of Russia’s top-secret tank have appeared on the Internet. Moreover, the all-new T-14 Armata tanks were captured as they were being transported by rail to a range outside Moscow ahead of the May 9 Victory Day parade on Red Square.
Even though the tanks were partially camouflaged to hide their silhouette and size, the seven-track design was clearly visible.

The tanks apparently feature a new generation 125mm extended-length smoothbore gun.
Also taking part in the May 9 parade in Moscow will be advanced Kurganets 25 and Bumerang tracked armored vehicles, Taifun-U armored cars, Coalitsia-SV self-propelled artillery pieces and Kornet-D missile complexes.

After five years of development, the Uralvagonzavod Research and Production Corporation finalized manufacture of the first batch of Armata tanks and heavy personnel carriers. They have been included in Russia’s 2015 defense order.

I noticed two things:

The armata looks big it has 7 wheels instead of 6 also it looks high compared to the T's tanks.

also I cant believe Russian army still use the UAZ car which is decades old.

But also look the new stuff.

So they make some new stuff I don't no why they keep using the ugly ones.

That UAZ jeep maybe looks old fashioned , but it is a newer production.

Why change something if it works?

GAZ Tigr and UAZ jeep are two different classes , UAZ-469 is cheap and reliable off road vehicle , just like Lada Niva or Land Rover Defender.

The Armata seems to be very large or at least closer to size to western tanks. I looks like it could be the first Russian tank to be in the ~60+ ton range.
