I know that, but why would you need simulated weight?

 

 

If the weight of the vehicle is going to be changed, it would be beneficial to know how it will effect the vehicle, before they start producing it. Higher ground pressure, lower acceleration / max speed, center of gravity / mass; all these things are important to know in a vehicle, and will effect how the vehicle performs. The effects are much more pronounced in ships and aircraft, but do effect ground vehicles, too.

TsAMTO, August 19. In the Far East, the re-equipment of motorized rifle formations of the Eastern Military District with new T-80BV tanks was completed.
   The final party entered the military district in the Jewish Autonomy (EAO).

   Thus, the tank units of the four motorized rifle formations deployed in the Khabarovsk Territory, the Jewish Autonomy, Amur Region, Sakhalin Island, are 100% equipped with T-80BV tanks.

How much did Cyprus payed for the T-80U:
- The 1994 contract 41 units of T-80U (of which 14 UK) - 175 million in dollars (about 130.42 mln. Euro).

- Contract 2010 41 units of T-80U and 4 assembled from scratch BREM-80U - 105 ml. Euro.

The price does not include modernization, repair and adaptation.

   Not sure how accurate, but i don't remember seeing such info on Cyprus T-80s. About 3 mln Euro for each T-80 in first contract and ~2.5 for 2010 one.
