The T-72B3 is the latest Russian version of the T-72 tank, which features a new engine, 1,130 horsepower and a more advanced fire control system. The tank also received onboard screens with a set of removable modular protection.

The tank began to hit targets more accurately due to the introduction of the multi-channel gunner sight Sosna-U, developed in Belarus, a digital ballistic computer with a set of weather sensors, and a target tracking machine.

The tank received a new 125-mm gun 2A46M-5 with increased survivability of the trunk and a new set of guided weapons, which guarantees a high probability of destroying the target from a place and in motion at a range of up to five kilometers.

Also, the T-72B3 was equipped with new fire-fighting equipment and VHF radio station R-168-25U-2 "Aqueduct". It is planned that these machines will participate in tank biathlon, which will be held in August this year.
