    Incorrect turret

    5 M8 prototypes were made under 1992 contract.

    No, it's not official, but there were such ideas in past.

    Maybe in some conception they were, but this was not comparable level of study as 1990-1991 Morozov's project (and not 490B) http://btvt.info/2futureprojects/490_21vek.htm They (the US 1968 project) just made a brief essay with only basic rudimentary study. For example the same - Questionmark III.

    On November 27, 1984, the MBT T-80U tank was officially accepted for service in Soviet army by order № 1184-301 of Central committee of Communist party of USSR and council of ministers. http://btvt.info/1inservice/t-80u.htm Also this day by the order № №П83-300сс of Central committee of Communist party of USSR and council of ministers T-72B was officially accepted for service in Soviet army. http://btvt.info/1inservice/t-72B.htm

    about the “Oplot”, I think this is a “triumph” of the T-64 series ... and its followers. But this is not a 21st century tank. Morozov’s followers on both sides of the border sawn the old concept, time showed how far ahead of time it was. But sometimes it is worth stopping and thinking about something new (I’m not talking about Armata and not even about T-95).

    This was 490A from late 1984 which was intended to use the variable shape propellant charge. It was also intended for 152 mm 477.

    Hi! yes, very interesting

    Hard to say - MLRS dispenses 28 AT-2 antitank mines a round.

    490A Rebel - competitor of 490 Poplar http://btvt.info/2futureprojects/490a.htm
  19. Andrei_bt
    History repeats - in 1984 it was finally decided to chose 152 mm (490 and 490A were equiped with improoved 125 mm gun, like on Armata). Then they returned to 125 mm and will soon go to 152 mm.

    Partially survived - only the hull which was used to test molot engine. The turret was used for fire trials, so it has obj 476 turret and add onn plate to imitate weight.
  21. Andrei_bt
    490A has crew separated from ammo, but has no blow off panels. late variant of 490A had also autoloader separated from crew only by a steel case.
  22. Andrei_bt
    You are talking about obj 490, not 490A. Both 490, but completely different.
  23. Andrei_bt
    The first version had "big ass turret bustle " for 1400 mm long round and charge, but then they - On subsequent version with a double-flow automatic loader with separate loading rounds was proposed. The projectile and charge were placed in turret bustle and hull sequentially (… round-charge-round …). http://btvt.info/7english/490_eng.htm This made loading a bit longer, but the turret bustle length was 2 times shorter.

    Development of future Soviet tank in 80-s and was a continuation of works started in 1970-s under designation “Project 101”. Necessity for development was grounded by the development of next generation tank in US and NATO. The importance of this task was well realized by Nikolay Shomin, a new chief designer of Kharkov design bureau, who replaced Alexander Morozov after he retired in 1976. The development of the tank had two main directions – conventional layout with 3-man crew and unmanned turret, which was known under designation “Object 490A” and later “Object 477” and unconventional 2-man design known as “Object 490”. The project “490” developed in the 80s was under development by Eugenie Morozov, son of the famous designer of tanks T-34, T-54, T-64 Alexander Morozov. The main features of the “Object 490” were: - crew consisting of two people - commander-gunner and driver. Reduce the crew to two people and place them in a compact, well-protected capsule. Depending on the specific layout, this gives a volume saving of up to 1.2 m3. - the use of hydro pneumatic suspension. In addition to solving the main problem - increasing average speeds by improving running smoothness, it allows to control the clearance of the tank, which increases maneuverability and survivability in battle. In addition, controlled hydro pneumatic suspension by changing the hull angle allows to increase the pointing angles of the gun in the vertical plane. - Creation of a special armored refueling and reloading vehicle capable of accompanying the tank in the same formation, overcoming hard natural and artificial obstacles, passing through nuclear contaminated areas of the terrain, and operating under conditions of use of nuclear weapons. In layout no. 1 and 2, it was supposed to implement the replenishment of ammunition and refueling the tank without leaving the crews of the tank and refueling-loading machine. Object 490 "Poplar". Unknown Soviet future tank of 80s http://btvt.info/7english/490_eng.htm

    Suppose it will be possible to publish drawing in a next book
