i said T-95 is not a dead project.

In the Sverdlovsk region in the framework of the exhibition "Defense and Security" was held for the first time private screening of the T-95

YEKATERINBURG, July 14. / Corr. ITAR-TASS Olga Erachina. In the Sverdlovsk region today as part of the VI International exhibition of technical means "Defense and Security" was first held private screening of the T-95.

"In the last time was under development of this tank. But this time it was decided not to hold a demonstration of its capabilities in public. So show closed. List of persons entitled to access to the event, defined" Rosoboronexport ", - said at a news conference Deputy Director of the Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation of Russia Konstantin Biryulin.

T-95 - promising Russian tank of the fourth generation, developed by designers in the scientific-industrial corporation Uralvagonzavod / Nizhniy Tagil. This radical new battle tank, the main feature of which is to change the layout. The crew is located in a special armored capsule is separated from the tower and automatic charging of the reservation. The gun is located in a small tower without crew. This concept allows to significantly reduce the silhouette of the tank, making it less noticeable on the battlefield. Also significantly improves the security of the crew separated from the crew compartment bronestenkoy.

The exhibition "Defense and Security" held in Nizhny Tagil every two years, alternating with the International exhibition of arms. This year it is attended by over 250 Russian and foreign companies. As part of the exhibition presents more than two thousand full-scale exhibits.

Let me explain what has happened if you didn't pick it up already. What we know, A) the Russian state has stopped funding of this project since last year and B) the Russian Army will not buy T-95 as long as Popovkin is running the show. From this article there are two nouns that need to be observed... Rosboronexport and Military Technical Cooperation. That means this private showing was for foreign investors to try to get this back up for export. Most likely countries that watched it were India and SKA representatives as we know that is who they have been pitching it to for years. It is a last ditch effort to revive it and the actions of Popovkin have more than just damaged the project, but literally killed it. No one wants to fund a Russian project that isn't backed by the state. The fact it wasn't publicly unveiled shows just how uncertain this last ditch effort is.

The T-95 was nearly ready. Maybe they are trying to revive the program under a different name. It is not an uncommon practice. If they secure funding from other sources, perhaps they will finish the development for export.

Defense and Protection "will be a closed tank displaying a new generation Tank

Tonight, July 14, at the site "Miner" in Nizhny Tagil will be closed to demonstrate a new generation of tank T-95.

As the correspondent of "UralPolit.Ru"from the scene, told a briefing the Deputy Director of the Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation of Russia Konstantin Biryulin.

He clarified that the decision to open the demonstration of new models of weapons may take only the president, but a developer tank - Uralvagonzavod - with such a request in the presidential administration has not approached.

Better not be!
Even IA top officers talk abt things like " No Country can survive a long war without the resources inside" in other word encouraging Homemade stuff ..
It will be more like the Indo-Polish light tank, Just the gun and the size of the vehicle is bigger..

There is a big difference between being completed for running around a tank course and an actual production model. The Black Eagle was ready to run around the course, but it was not even close to "completed." Russia withdrew from Objekt 195 not because it isn't a good idea, but for the fact they don't have the technology to make it modern. This meeting might have also included French industrialists to see if they would provide system components to make it so. The funding they were looking for to finish development is in the billions of dollars, someone else will have to bankroll it.

Tank ghost starve financial starvation

Presumably because the future looks like a tank T-95
The designers say: the Ministry of Defense decision to close the project "Object 195" was premature. The new tank will be in demand by customers


Strange stories were happening with the Russian "tank of the future": about it long rumored as superzasekrechennom "object 195. Army wags nicknamed this machine "ghost" - supposedly, all about her talk, but no one has ever seen. And while some media (including the "KP") have repeatedly appeared scheme mysterious items, and received a second formal name - the T-95, some representatives of the Defense Ministry flatly refused his existence, and even reproached journalists for the "fairy tale". Apparently, so tried to cover up the secret, and from foreign intelligence services.

Secret is out in April this year: while in heavy, like armor, cloak of secrecy Urals tank-builders for the first time showed overgrown with legends of the car is very narrow circle of ministers and generals. Publish your impressions of strictly forbidden. And now - another one that has broader premiere:
in Nizhny Tagil in the exhibition "Defence Expo 2010" held another private screening prospective main battle tank - the same T-95, the same "object 195". This was officially announced the deputy director of the Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation Konstantin Biryulin.

According to him, a list of persons granted access to confidential screening of new technology, was determined Rosoboronexport (the organization that is engaged in exports and imports).

What was known about the Russian armored miracle Judaic?

Development of T-95 does the company Uralvagonzavod. T-95 differs from that currently adopted T-90 lower silhouette, remote-controlled turret and location of the crew in a special armored capsule.

Designers machine boast: thanks to the fact that "living compartment" separated from the tank's turret gun and automatic loader and special armor, could improve the safety of the crew. In addition, the machine became a "squat" (as it were, sprawled on the ground), which reduces its visibility on the battlefield - it can disguise even in low bushes.

For the most confidence for our readers to report: the weight of the new tank - about 55 tons. It can reach speeds of up to 80 kilometers per hour. Armament: 152-millimeter gun, anti-aircraft missiles and machine guns - caliber 7,62 and 14,5 mm. It is possible that armor T-95 would be combined with the use of armor - CLE (at our other tanks, it was a "bill"). It is said that the new machine should appear and a new system to fight with shells and "smart" missiles, bombs, the enemy, which rises above target. Above this and fight our design engineers. Moreover, for free.

Even three months ago the first deputy defense minister of Russia Vladimir Popovkin said that the War Department stopped funding the development of T-95 and close it. Not so long ago the Minister of Industry and Science, Sverdlovsk region, Alexander Petrov said that URALVAGONZAVOD "soon finalize a T-95," to conduct themselves.


According to Petrov, the Defense Ministry decision to close the project "Object 195" was premature and the new tank will be in demand by customers.

The question arises: if the project wipe out, then why hold private screenings? The fact is that the Urals are extremely interested to bring begun before the end (the more so that the product they vbuhali quite a few of their millions - from the factory treasury). And now try to prove the ministers and generals, that the machine would be one of the best in the world. And then, as luck would have suddenly vanished from the Ministry of Defense "appetite" for tanks: some generals have to say that the tank - it is weapons of yesterday. While many of the most powerful army the world, do not reject it, but on the contrary, improve and create new designs. What would have happened strategic mistakes ...

In Russia, held a private screening of the T-95

In Russia in the exhibition Defence Expo 2010 held the first indoor running battle tank T-95, also known as the object 195.

According to the source of the Deputy Director of the Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation Konstantin Biryulin, a list of persons granted access to the show of the new technology, has been identified Rosoboronexport.

The development of the new tank does the company Uralvagonzavod. T-95 differs from its predecessor T-90 lower silhouette, remote-controlled turret and the location of the crew in a special armored capsule.

Also, the new tank is different in that residential car compartment is separated from the tower and autoloader special armor, which led to improve the safety of the crew.

Moreover, this constructive solution has reduced the silhouette of the tank, a positive impact on its invisibility on the battlefield. More details about the technical characteristics of machines are not reported.

According to the source, the mass of the new tank will be about 55 tons, it can reach speeds of up to 80 kilometers per hour. Armament machines will be presented to 152-mm gun, anti-aircraft guided missiles and machine guns 7,62 and 14,5 mm. It is possible that armor T-95 would be combined with the use of armor.

Today, the fate of the T-95 remains unclear. While his private screening was held, in April 2010.

"War Department stopped funding the development of T-95 and close it," - said Deputy Defense Minister of Russia Vladimir Popovkin.

As stated, the Minister of Industry and Science of the Sverdlovsk region, Alexander Petrov, Uralvagonzavod soon finalize a T-95, conducted independently.

According to Petrov, the Defense Ministry decision to close the project object 195 was premature, and the new tank will be in demand by customers.

Earlier Boeing Company has introduced a new unmanned spy plane Phantom Eye, running on hydrogen fuel. Aircraft created division of Boeing Phantom Works. The creators claim that it can fly at an altitude of 20 km and stay in the air about four days.

another artcle about T-95

She Says trouble.


For the distinguished Figurants and other information of interest from an eyewitness and participant.
Yesterday, 14.07. the first day of the exhibition "Defence and Security" in Nizhny Tagil at the end of the official exhibition events actually took place the so-called "private show" BTT development UKBTM. Rumors about him reached the ears of a young and kind of not too knowledgeable in tank affairs journalist, who as they say "heard the sound but does not know where he is." VIF and Silas Russia, he obviously did not read, but vypulit something "roast" him see briskly like. For this purpose, at a press conference with the organizers of the exhibition they were asked whether or not such a display will take place and whether it will show "T-95". However, due to the fact that pressuhe there was no organizer of this show, the question was addressed ... Mayor of Nizhny Tagil, Valentina Pavlovna Isaeva. She has of course a very good relationship with the new leadership UVZ, but not so to keep abreast of work on promising topics and modernization, and the upcoming "closed" event, she had absolutely no relationship. Is it any wonder that the response was very streamlined, ambiguous and "politically correct". Sitting on the podium next to her "guys" representing some VTSovskie structure and administration of the test site, having come to "help" her even more caught up with "muti". At the same time that the question that the answer is, in fact looking forward to talented members pressuhi summoned almost fit of laughter - to restrain himself while listening as she and other party whip blatant nonsense it was very difficult. Here's the real background of the emergence of information about "T-95". Once again, with regret, and it is regrettable that our journalist's body in the bulk of its acts by the rule "that I hear, that I sing, he did not hear - invent" and not specifically allege a brain-work, or at least to the elementary fact checking.

Regarding the actual show, then how to say this dear BAURIS and PQ on it to display some members of the RF Government and Defense modernized version of the T-90. The main feature - the new CD. These things mean a new OMS under construction around the panorama with the matrix Catherine-XP (3 party and special) (today the representatives of Thales and Peleng confirmed the actual real existence of this sight). In addition to the panorama of the OMS is implemented ASC and some other unknown to me (so far) freaks. New gun, increased BK leaving the main part of non-motorized kits handed out CD. Remote-controlled machine gun. The device registration bending of the trunk. Blind without lighting. Helm, Ann. Kondishen.Zaschita Relic + something else (heard the word Cerberus). Screens as BMPT + lattice + skirt "triangles" of type "Chinese". In general, it's all still called the layout and its specific configuration will depend on the wishes and financial possibilities of the customer. (I do not know, Kostya, where did you get that-90M will be some more radical redesign with the case of type ob.187 - this question is not it!) Also upgraded the tank in the same show BMPT participated.
Why show was closed? It is very simple - this version of the modernization initiative was created UKBTM for proposals for export. However, in connection with the closing Burlaka (or its failure - who as you like), this option was no alternative to the native MO. A Ministry of Defense as we know does not like publicity (for some reason, especially in BTT) on samples prepared to the adoption. Also in connection with participation in the show the highest ranks - it was the only form to ensure the safety of the event. However, I think that despite the positive assessment of the tank MoD did not buy and 2011godu we see in all its glory on the REA-2011 as a new option for the proposals over the hill.
Fun for: the exhibit was one more "modernized" T-90S. His modernization of the was to install the blue glass on all front headlamps. Some representatives KB interrogated me about this said that this has a strictly scientific basis, to clarify which still refused. Wednesday appealed to this feature attention tank nicknamed "Sineglazka":)))

Shl. Photo-90M is, but wait until the publication;)
ZY2. When you try to enter the indoor show Sat FSE NTIIM was arrested and expelled from the landfill respected here VIM - he reacted to the incident with humor, insight, as well as its inherent hlodnokroviem and endurance :))))

In the Urals, removed the veil from a secret Russian T-95

The main sensation of the international exhibition Russian Defence Expo-2010, taking place July 14-18 at Nizhny Tagil, was closed showing the T-95, developed by the Ural Transport Engineering Design Bureau (part of the JSC "SPC Uralvagonzavod). Workings of quality news, delivered to the military training ground under cover, were demonstrated to the Minister of Industry Minister Viktor Khristenko, the representatives of the Defense Ministry and Rosoboronexport.
From standing in the Russian Army T-90 new tank has a more low-slung, quality armor, better protection of the crew, the new chassis and fire control system. According to sources "RusBiznesNyus" in Rosoboronexport, the first T-95 was shown to the Russian Defense Minister Igor Sergeyev in the early 2000's. Then the marshal told the journalists that the new car is already on the move and on the head than the T-80 tanks and T-90.
Statement I. Sergeyev nearly wrecked a contract to supply a large batch of T-90 of the Indian Army. Delhi demanded to sell them with modern tanks. Indians had a hard time persuading that the T-95 exists only on paper and in the metal will be embodied not soon. However, a prototype has not yet been embodied in production vehicles.
Experts still can not understand why the Ministry of Defence in May 2010 decided to close the project. Tank, according to sources at Rosoboronexport, in some respects superior to the Israeli Merkava, and the German "Leopard". By their firepower, armor protection, mobility and range of the vehicle is quite competitive with foreign analogues. Experts say that all the technical specifications issued by the military, have been implemented. In their view, if the tank does not comply with the requirements, it means that in the military working incompetent people. In this case T-95 and continue to be a secret weapon: he could become a base for developing a more forward-looking tank.

i thought that project is being cancelled by Russia government.
here is a quote from a poster named "Damian" on the tanknet -

Posted 15 July 2010 - 0714 AM

My sources (Russian friends of a man that I know, and he is very well informed on Russian military issues etc.) say that there was no Object-195/T-95 shown on that closed exposition, only Object-188M/T-90M.

This post has been edited by Damian: 15 July 2010 - 0714 AM

Posted 15 July 2010 - 1138 AM

The man I talking about claims that his Russian friends were in the closed part, and they didn't see famous Object-195.
FWIW it seems the screening was for T-90M and they need funding for it too!!!! :happy_2:

First Look, Russia's T-95 Tank











The T-95 was a future main battle tank, in development at the Russian Federation's Uralvagonzavod plant (designers of the T-72 and T-90 series, and the largest Russian facility producing tanks, leaving JSC KBTM Omsktransmash the transport machine and military factory in Russian city Omsk at the second place.). It was first reported by Jane's Defence Weekly in 1995, and announced by Russian official sources in 2000, but the tank had never been seen or photographed, and no concrete data had been released. It was due to be introduced in 2009, but was perpetually delayed. The Russian government terminated its involvement in the project in May 2010 and withdrew all funding[1].


Characteristics

Most information about this tank was speculative. The design was presumably a significant departure from the Soviet-era tanks currently in service. In particular, according to Moscow Defense Brief, it was expected to have a new hydropneumatic suspension with adaptive features, and the entire crew was apparently going to be placed in a sealed compartment inside the hull, isolated from other tank components.

Development and deployment

T-95 was a name given to the tank by media; it was not an official name.[2] According to published sources, development of a new tank called "Item 195" began at the Uralvagonzavod design bureau in the early 1990s.[2]

The prototype tank was announced by the Russian Minister of Defense in 2000. On July 10, 2008 the Russian government announced that the Russian armed forces would start receiving new-generation tanks superior to the T-90 main battle tank after 2010. "The T-90 MBT will be the backbone of the armored units until 2025. T-72's and T-80's will not be modernized and will be eventually replaced by new-generation tanks, which will start entering service after 2010," Sergei Mayev, head of the Federal Service for Defense Contracts Rosoboronzakaz told a news conference.[3]
