T-72B3 is a modification of the Russian main battle tank of the T-72 family, developed in 2011 at Uralvagonzavod in Nizhny Tagil. T-72B3 is fast and maneuverable. Diesel V-84-1 with a capacity of 840 hp accelerates the tank along the highway to a speed of 65 km / h, so it uses new tracks with parallel rubber-metal joints of the tracks. The highlight of the T-72B3 was the improved 2A46M-5 smoothbore gun, which allows firing high-powered ammunition. The Sosna-U multi-channel gunner's sight with a thermal imager and automatic target tracking allows accurate fire on the move at a distance of up to 5 km. On the turret and hull of the tank there are "boxes" of the "Contact 5" dynamic protection complex to increase the protection of armored vehicles from the damaging effects of sub-caliber armor-piercing and cumulative projectiles.
