Good video. Russian tank designers seems to be ahead of other counterparts with Armata. Although for a long time Russia will have no need to use these for themselves there would be many customers that would need this especially for urban warfare conditions threatening them or already under this new version of war.
Syrian war T72s and later T90 tanks should give enough lessons for improving this platform even further. Such as the T90 hit video by tow missile showed that situational awareness and crew training is first line of defense if it is breached others come into scene. New atgms overcome jammers like shotra so active defense would be a preferrable option covering 360 degrees. The last line of defense is the armor and in this field we have already seen its effectiveness.
-For situational awareness the drivers need to have high quality training and through knowledge about tanks passive and active sensors and especially hands on experience to dispense fog,evade atgms and other tanks by first simulators and then a limited live excersize for elite troops with training dummy atgms launched at the tank. Live fire data can also be used to improve the simulators. It needs to have more than a drivers licence for previous tanks. It is also good that Armata employs a mini military drone to detect threats from above obstacles as well. https://www.rt.com/news/340142-super-tank-armata-robot/
-Active defense needs to be continiously tested with evolving threats like top down attack atgms and similar. All can be validated by atgms without explosive warheads launched at the tank. Armor can be validated as well for evolving threats by simulations and durability test of a piece of armor to explosives,tandem warheads and kinetic shots.
Lets see the equipment on 9 May parades soon have further analysis and discussion to improve and tailor the equipment according to us customers needs.
