T-120 "Moskva" (Moscow) MBT by Prokhor Zakharov, on Flickr

T-120 "Moskva" (Moscow) MBT

-------------------

The T-120 Moskva MBT is a state of the art tank equipped with the latest gadgets the world can provide in 2020.

Armed with a large calibre main gun and guided ATGMs on either side. Employs a SAM if air units are too pesky, and the newest AI controlled 20mm autocannon and machinegun turret mounted on top of the tank.

As with most UT tanks, it features a three-tier protection system.

The first tier is the composite armour. It consists of basic armour shell with an insert of alternating layers of aluminum and plastics and a controlled deformation section.

The second tier is the Kontakt-5 ERA (explosive reactive armor). It severely reduces the blow from kinetic projectiles. They are in the form of blocks on the turret and body or as ERA plates underneath steel outer covering. It results in much better protection than simple steel armour as featured on many other non-UT tanks.

The third tier is a Shtora countermeasures suite. This system includes two IR "dazzlers" on the front/top of the turret in the shape of blocks, four Laser warning receivers, two 3D6 aerosol grenade discharging systems and a computerized control system. The Shtora-1 warns the tank's crew when the tank has been 'painted' by a weapon-guidance laser and automatically activates the aerosol grenade launchers, effectively jamming the incoming missile. The aerosol grenades are used to mask the tank from laser rangefinders and designators as well as the optics of other weapons systems.

For passive guidance rocket systems, IR dazzlers create a blinding field of infrared light, "blinding" the rocket as it's IR isn't visible anymore.

The Arena active countermeasures suite consist of a computer, incoming projectile warning sensors, and shrapnel launchers all around the tank hull. It detects an incoming projectile, and sends out a stream of shrapnel to meet the incoming projectile. It destroys the projectile while leaving the armour intact.

Powered by a hybrid diesel/electric engine. Fast, has good suspension, and is able to submerge completely into water without leaks. Employs an autoloader.

It has it's own air search radar, allowing it to use SAMs standalone. 3 kilometer range.

The tanks are also fitted with nuclear, biological and chemical (NBC) protection equipment. It includes a mine disabling kit. The EMT-7 electromagnetic-counter mine system is installed: the EMT-7 emits an electromagnetic pulse to disable magnetic mines and disrupt electronics before the tank reaches them. The Nakidka signature reduction suite is also equipped. Nakidka is designed to reduce the probabilities of an object to be detected by Infrared, Thermal, Radar-Thermal, and Radar bands.

All tanks are installed with night vision and infrared cameras, with direct feed into screens inside the tank.

It boasts an MRL system as it's main weapon. This is not an artillery piece, but rather a main assault weapon. These are used right behind MBTs. Loaded with a variety of missiles, they can be used for clearing out buildings, destroying light and heavy armour, and blowing humans up.

Their range is quite short, as it's missiles can only go about 5 miles. It uses an advanced targeting computer and a hybrid electrical/gasoline engine. It has an HMG to fend off pesky infantry units who stray too close.

It's advanced computers allow it to mesh in with the intel networks, which is essentially a map created from soldier feed, satellite images, UAVs, planes, etc. This virtual map includes enemy locations. If a UT or allied soldier with Enforcer Suit is in the area, he will be able to guide the missile in with deadly accuracy, using only his presence (His computers will take visual data, send it to the command center, which will interpret the data and make sense of it. It will mark out enemy soldiers and send the info back to the Enforcer, the whole process takes only microseconds, so it is essentially real time.)

Runs on a diesel/electric engine.

The tanks are also fitted with nuclear, biological and chemical (NBC) protection equipment. The EMT-7 electromagnetic-counter mine system is installed: the EMT-7 emits an electromagnetic pulse to disable magnetic mines and disrupt electronics before the tank reaches them.

The Shtora-1 warns the tank's crew when the tank has been 'painted' by a weapon-guidance laser and automatically activates the aerosol grenade launchers, effectively jamming the incoming missile. The aerosol grenades are used to mask the tank from laser rangefinders and designators as well as the optics of other weapons systems.

For passive guidance rocket systems, IR dazzlers create a blinding field of infrared light, "blinding" the rocket as it's IR isn't visible anymore.

The Arena active countermeasures suite consist of a computer, incoming projectile warning sensors, and shrapnel launchers all around the tank hull. It detects an incoming projectile, and sends out a stream of shrapnel to meet the incoming projectile. It destroys the projectile while leaving the armour intact.

Powered by a hybrid diesel/electric engine. Fast, has good suspension, and is able to submerge completely into water without leaks.

The tanks are also fitted with nuclear, biological and chemical (NBC) protection equipment. It includes a mine disabling kit. The EMT-7 electromagnetic-counter mine system is installed: the EMT-7 emits an electromagnetic pulse to disable magnetic mines and disrupt electronics before the tank reaches them. The Nakidka signature reduction suite is also equipped. Nakidka is designed to reduce the probabilities of an object to be detected by Infrared, Thermal, Radar-Thermal, and Radar bands.

All tanks are installed with night vision and infrared cameras, with direct feed into screens inside the tank.

T-83 Suvorov Assault Vehicle

Heavy Assault Vehicle

$40,000

An extremely heavy monster. It is a 4x24 VLS system, filled with 96 missiles. Two types of missiles are inside this vehicle: Anti-ground and Anti-air.

Anti-Ground: AG-34, 60 mile range

Anti-Air: SA-902, 75 mile range

These very rarely actually see combat, due to the range of missiles. Therefore it is only armed with an HMG.

It is also equipped with it's own air-search radar, and employs a BELKA-22T UAV launcher for reconnaisance.

The original will now be terminated.
