T-95 Main Battle Tank Designed to fill the role of primary main battle tank in the Russian Ground Forces and export market, the T-95 emphasizes survivability, mobility and communications. Noteworthy features include an unmanned turret, with all crew in the lower hull of the tank sealed off from the turret by an armored hatch. The turret is armored, and carries IR and other sensors, the autoloader, and a magazine of 24 rounds. While the crew compartment is roomier than in the T-90S, the tank is still cramped by western standards. The tank includes advanced communications and network systems, allowing multiple T-95s to coordinate with one another to a degree not possible with earlier Russian tanks. This tank will begin testing in 2011, and be ready for service by 2014, at a unit cost of $5.2 million. A cheaper export version, without the Shtora-1, Arena and EMT-7 systems will be available for $4.4 million. Armament * 2A64M 125mm smoothbore gun (42 shells, 4 ATGM carried) * RC 12.7mm KORD (1200 rounds) * Coaxial 7.62mm PKT (3000 rounds) Stats * Weight: 49.3 tonnes * Length: 11.1 m * Width: 4.0 m * Height: 2.0 m * Crew: 3 * Speed: 54 km/h * Range: 520 km (additional fuel can be carried externally) * Engine: 1250 hp V-96 12 cylinder diesel * Power/weight ratio: 23.5 hp/tonne Armor and Defenses * 4th generation composite armor * Relikt ERA on turret and bow * NERA kit available for external mounting * Shtora-1 anti-missile system * Arena defensive system * EMT-7 EMP device

S-500 The S-500 is a new generation surface-to-air missile system, designed for intercepting short- and intermediate-range ballistic missiles with ranges up to 3,500 km (2,175 mi) and for defense against Airborne Early Warning and Control, Airborne Warning and Control System, and jamming aircraft. It is not an upgraded version of the S-400. With a planned range of 600 km (373 mi), the S-500 will be able to detect and simultaneously engage up to 10 ballistic supersonic targets flying at a speed of 5 km/s. As of 2009, the system is currently under design stage development at Almaz-Antey, and is planned to be completed in 2012 The S-500 incorporates improvements to the detection system of the S-400, designed to detect low-RCS targets. * Maximum detection range: 800 km * Setup time: 3 minutes * Target maximum altitude: 32,000 m * Target maximum speed: 5 km/s * Target minimum altitude: 10 m * Weapon maximum range: 600 km * Weapon minimum range: 2 km An S-500 fire unit typically includes the following: * Mobile command and guidance system * 8-12 mobile launchers, either self-propelled or towed, with 4 launch tubes each * Several support vehicles * 32-48 missiles Cost varies from a minimum of $380 million for a fire unit with 8 towed launchers to $600 million for a fire unit with 12 self-propelled launchers. The S-500 will be available for production by the start of 2013. |
