    It's good that in other countries light tanks are not called "tank destroyers".
    The thing is that some people believe that Sprut was made for destroying MBTs, but it wasn't (this fact is mentioned in the article I quoted).

    They used stocks of avaliable ammunition to fire just for this show. We should be glad they used something real instead of some kind of training round.
     
       So Russian army will fight and were fighting only in Syrias? Only against modern MBTs? Are you sure that HEAT rounds are as accurate at 4+ km as GL-ATGMs?
     
    "They" are working on 4th gen ATGM, called VTRK.
     
       Well, if we already have stocks of those things why not to use them? Especially if they can extend effective range against most probable types of tanks that our army may meet.
     
       Shtora is not exactly "new".
     
       Exactly same as on T-90MS from many years ago.
     
       Nothing new here. Even T-72B1U for Nicaragua had them, it is kind of standart equipment now.
     
       This is show for people with "housewife" level of knowledge of military tech. Sometimes it feels like you are posting while drunk, i'm too lazy to find again an old Soviet training video showing T-64A gunner's station and ammunition selection system.
     
       Yes, original contract stated for this (article was posted in this thread), known information for many months by now.

    And all real “MBTs” have turrets, right? 
     

     
    The Swedes classified their Strv 103 as an “MBT”, but it has no turret. 
     
    Different nations can have different classifications for their tanks, regardless of form or function. If the Russians want to classify the 2S25(M) as a tank destroyer, or a gun carrier, or a light amphibious tank, or a god damn attack helicopter with tracks, they can do that. It can LOOK LIKE a vehicle that we would classify as something else, but to the nation that uses said vehicle, it is whatever they classify it. 
     
     
    The original 2S25s were created before the T-90A entered production (from what I’ve read), so they probably use the old loader. The 2S25M was made after the T-90A, so it wouldn’t be impossible that it has the updated loader. Of course, with the Russian military budget cuts, it wouldn’t be too crazy to assume they didn’t update the loader.

    Not only T-90A.
     
    Yes, same with King Tiger vs M10 or SU-100, for example.

    On french military themed discord channel we were "discussing" T-72B3 mod.2016 sideskirts and i posted this:
    http://zakupki.gov.ru/223/purchase/public/purchase/info/documents.html?lotId=4498123&purchaseId=3264240&purchaseMethodType=EP
    State order for T-72B3 modification, it derectly says that side skirts have Relikt ERA. T-80BVM and T-90M have exactly the same skirts.
     
    Also, T-90MS had exactly same sideskirts. Here is UVZ PR material that again states that it have ERA in them.

    I'm really going to start sending people to Gulags for this. Those sideskirts are Relikt ERA modules (there are proofs that i posted on discort recently when this question was asked and i had to find a fucking state order wich directly said that those sideskrts are ERA). Where are you got an idea that those things are NOT ERA?
