Now APS are getting mounted on T72B3 too. New tanks are too computerised to be produced in large numbers. French processors used to be mounted on Armata, but with sanctions cant buy them. Sad.
@YusufFurther explanation: Russian ERA usually consists of an explosive sandwitched between two (or more) steel plates (a prime example being Kontakt 1). When a projectile hits, the explosive is detonated, and the two metal plates are pushed apart. The plate facing the projectile is pushed toward said projectile, creating more resistance against it and making the armor harder to pen. Of course, ERA works better against HEAT warheads such as missiles, which explode on contact with a surface and release a jetstream to pierce the armor. Spaced layers of armor are a good counter to this projectile (hence why panzers had sideskirts), but ERA works better in that the explosive force generates even more empty space for the jetstream to have to go through by pushing the metal plates apart.
The Russians did not fight the Taliban. The Taliban where founded in the early 90s when the Russians already have left Afghanistan. The Russians fought the Mujahedin.

One even smaller detail .. no T-14 tank exists and will not exist for a number of reasons. These are technical problems, the lack of many technologies, low engineering culture, the lowest production culture and the low level of training of Russian tankers, as well as an elementary lack of money. This is sad, but the situation cannot be quickly reversed. Russia is not yet able to create and build a tank of at least the level of the American M1A1. It will not work !!!

Cool video and animation! I just wanted to clarify a couple of points, the T-64 and T-72 are related tanks that were only made at different factories, the T64 was completely innovative, they wanted to make everything new at once, and because of this there were a lot of problems during manufacture, and the T72 followed the path of gradual modernization and debugging of production because of this, it significantly simplified and reduced the cost of the design, so the T-72A, T-72B, T-72B1, T72M ..... The T-10 is the last heavy tank, and then we thought, Why do we need two different classes of tanks, they are similar in armor, the guns are the same, let's combine medium and heavy tanks, take speed and cross-country ability from medium, and from heavy armor and a gun, so the main battle tank (MBT) was made There was an IT-1 tank (tank destroyer-1) in the 60s, it was armed only with missiles, and after some deliberation, they decided to combine the MBT, which had a rifled weapon with the IT-1, hence the 125 mm smoothbore cannon for firing missiles.
No they really aren't, other than the gun possibly, there is very little that could be swapped from one tank to the other, unlike the T72 and T90 its pimped out descendent.

This tank was a badass there is a story (ni fakt chek so it might not be true) that one of thus tanks held a road for three days with out getting destroyed
Were there ammunition or weapons inside those tanks? I always wonder what happens to the tank ammo and the self defense weapons for the tank crew when the tank gets destroyed
@@borisslavk01nolastname91 That depends. If it's just knocked out and can't be towed back, the crew should attempt to demolish the thing, but if unsuccessful -- it may be pretty intact. If that was a catastrophic destruction, however, there would remain no ammuntion or weapons inside (maybe like some misshapen pieces of metal).
It's ~50 years early for him. His force succeeded not because the good always wins, but because they saw an opportunity when tsarist oppression was already gone and newborn fascism of Kerensky was still feeble enough. And of course, without simple people being pushed well over the edge by these two menaces, bolsheviks would not be able to do anything at all.
It was perfect for the vast, open terrain of Russia/Eastern Europe. Christie tried selling his tanks to the US Army, but they basically told him "Boy we in the middle of a depression, do you think we can afford tanks!?", so he went to the Soviets, and the rest is history. The BT series was really impressive for the time. They were the fastest tanks around at that point, and had one of the better tank guns of the inter-war era (When most tanks were rocking 20mm autocannons or 37mm anti-tank cannons, the Soviets standardized on a whopping 45mm cannon) Their performance during the war was a little disappointing, but they were designed as offensive weapons, to exploit breakthroughs in enemy lines. Instead they found themselves fighting a defensive war where none of the BT's advantages could be used (Though they did kick the crap out of the Japanese during their border conflicts in Manchuria)
@@Branflakes143 I always thought the Christie suspension was chosen because you can drive it without tracks, and due to the very low track resourse Soviets tanks had in the 30s
Not only Christie, Garand also had influence. Kalashnikov's weapons were somewhat inspired by Garand M1's system. And people still believe Germans influenced AK... Also, barely anyone heard of Czech's self-loading rifle that inspired a lot of other designs. It's name is ZH-29.

Well, T-IV was initially planned as an infantry support vehicle. Here comes it's short barrelled 75 mm gun. The reason it got long barrel was of absence of any other platforms for such gun at that time, as T-III could not stand such torture.
If i recall corectly, T-26 production stopped by the time the Panzer 4 entered service. If I recall corectly, complete t-26 production stoppen in either 1938 or early 1939
About the T-64: the armor thickness was measured in the effectiveness of different shells because composite armor was introduced, which was more effective against HEAT rounds. It was measured in the equivalent protection in steel.

No matter the design, every single tank the Soviet's and Russian's made had the "Special Turret Ejection System" when hit, truly a one of a kind feature.
@Not_Ambrose I mean it had the same burn rate as ANY OTHER TANK because you know... They get hit? And was less likely to get it's turret popped off and give the crew a chance to escape And with the ammo moved and with new wet ammo stowage the Sherman was actually one of the tanks less likely to burn when hit... Unlike some designs **ahem** T-34 **ahem** who's turret just makes it's own space program.
@Not_Ambrose yep that's why I said they moved it, it had a good chance to be set on fire, but the room inside and well placed escape hatches gave the crew a chance to escape, and yeah the T-34 had fuel in it's fighting compartment so when it gets hit, either the turret is gone or the ammo cooks off, that's why there so many pictures of T-34s with no turret or burnt, and it's cramped space doesn't help.
@Not_Ambrose No, they were pictures from the allies and from the USSR themselves, and yeah with the tight space I doubt the crew could survive a hit, let alone the driver, cause you see, the T-34 was over heat treated making the armor quite sturdy but EXTREMELY brittle, that's why even the 37mm AT guns, so called the "Door Knocker" because on paper the T-34, was able to withstand the hit... Which didn't happen in early designs, the moment the tank got hit, the armor shatters both outside and inside, flinging extremely hot and sharp metal debris at very fast speeds ricocheting inside the tank turning it into a human blender, also the fuel inside the fighting compartment either burns or explode, and guess what happens? The crew dies. Also, many tanks had a driver's hatch, the Shermans? Yep, the panzers? Yep(some panzer models didn't but still, most models had one) British tanks? Yep, how the hell would the driver get in without a hatch?
@Not_Ambrose if you still don't believe me with the crew survivability thing, the T-34 suffered thousands of crew deaths reaching up to 300,000 compared to the Sherman's 1,500 (half outside the tank) and people still call the Sherman a deathtrap even though the T-34 who they praised to be rugged, cheap(even though it costed as much as the Sherman), "reliable" (the T-34 had the biggest fail rate during the war, constant breakdowns, cheaply manufactured ect) Was one of the most deadly tanks to be in (80% crew survivability).
Nice video. Here are some minor errors I could pick: - when talking about WW2 NVD a Thermal sight is shown instead of a IR Night vision. - T72B3 is said to be still found, implying that it's old but still used (although 2016 is mentioned, which is also contradicting the info implied). In fact it's the latest modernization meant to update old versions of tanks to modern standards. By 2021 T-72B3 is the most common MBT in their arsenal. - When talking about T-80U, the text comments are misplaced, ERA text shown on the engine compartment, and the new engine being shown where ERA is. -T-28 is categorised as a medium tank, not a heavy tank. - KV-2 was a behemoth, but a very inefficient tank. It was primarily designed to fight Finish defensive buildings, not tanks. It had a lot of room for failure, starting with gun buffer jams and turret jams (when shot ate some angles, so it was ok to shoot forward, but not ok to shoot sideways) and topping with it being stuck and abandoned most of the times. - When showing the IS-1 on the blueprint font, it's actually still KV-85. A major error is that the author uses the old categorization when talking about modern tanks. Modern tanks are somewhat a trade between heavy and medium tanks carrying features from both categories, and they are categorized as Main Battle Tanks (MBT). If i remember it right, the last medium tank in USSR was T-62. T-64 already being an MBT carrying a significantly upgraded armour and gun while maintaining its speed. So when saying "our last medium tank" and "MBT" in the same paragraph (T-14) is contradictive and partially wrong. As i said, it's very nice video, but i see a lot of room for improvement. Starting with editing the errors, and restructuring the video by showing light and medium tanks evolution, then heavy tank evolution, and finishing with the combined solutions of the previous concepts that emerged in the MBT category.
He's actually not wrong about T-14 being medium tank. USSR and Russia never adopted MBT class so in official documentation T-14 is called "medium tank". It's a little confusing but interesting fact.
@@lKeKeKel interesting, if you can come with some proof, because knowing Russian I find myself slightly skeptical. I never heard it being called medium. I'd assume your source might have a translation error, otherwise I'm genuinely curious.
В видео очень много неточностей даже в изображении модификаций танков,таких как Т-55М и Т-55АМ.Но и в тексте нет большой полезной информации,всё поверхностно и иногда не правильно.Например Т-14 имеет не только 125мм орудие,есть модификации и со 152мм орудием.Ни слово про газотурбинный двигатель у Т-80,на сколько я понял,ни разу не сказано о карусели досылателя снарядов,где не нужен заряжающий и многое другое.В том числе то,что Т-64 был первым ОБТ в мире,именно ОБТ,никакой не средний танк.
@@shrek6608 The Wehrmacht did capture more than a few, and rather than put them to anti-position duty they were made into coastal artillery assets. Worked, too.
Honestly, while your other videos seem to be well researched and done, this one just feels like barely any research actually went into it. For one, the in the part about the T-34 1940, a 1941 model is instead shown, along with misstating the T-14 production numbers, failing to explain how ERA works (the early ERA detonates, providing more of a air gap between a projectile and the actual armor, NOT destroying the projectile), stating the A-30 and A-20 as “production tanks” when in reality they were only prototypes, stating that the USSR was fighting the taliban in Afghanistan (they weren’t), calling the BT-2 a B-2, and showing a late model IS-2 hull on the IS-1. In all, this video just feels like a poorly researched script with a fancy thumbnail and animation glued over it to make it seem “acceptable”. (Also budgetary constraints stopped you from talking about the T-26? BUDGETARY CONSTRAINTS? You aren’t making a movie, it’s not that hard to draw a T-26 and voice over it)
To be fair, there is almost No diffrence between the mujahideen and the Taliban in respect to the fighting tactics used. So saying Taliban is way more understandable for the average viewer without having to explain what the mujahideen was.
7:22 That is a later T-34, either the 1941 T-34-76 or plausibly a 1941 -34-57, as the L-11 cannon has a rounder mantlet that has the gun more towards the bottom.
12:54 Very important to note; the Taliban did not exist in any sort of major capacity during the Soviet-Afghan war. They were fighting the Mujahideen and a handful of other groups but not the Taliban.
the T-72 probably is one of my favorite if by far the nicest looking MBT in my standards, its sleek and smooth with alot of curves, just something i really like to see in tanks
@@kritwot141 There’s enough videos of Russian designed tanks launching their turrets into the stratosphere. I wouldn’t call that propaganda at this point.
@@winchesterchua3311 technically it was more of an SPG than anything else. It was armoured and armed like a darned heavy tank, but it wasn’t really meant for upfront combat and more of an SPG role.
You forgot to mention the introduction of an innovative automatic gun loader in T-64. That allowed to make the turret smaller and reduce the crew from 4 to 3.
Argubly no. The amount of T-34s was limited until the end of 1942, compared to other tanks. Infact, in the famous tank battle at Prohorovka, a good number of the soviet tanks were T-60 and T-70 light tanks.
What stoped the Germans before Moscow was the fact that they had lost over half of their tanks, many infantry divisions were hundreds of kilometers from the front and the Russians were able to scrape together an army to hold the line.
Soviet tanks were so ferocious and so formidable in battle by numbers and by power that the even the fuhrer Adolf Hitler himself was extremely frustrated as captured in the only personal voice recording in a conversation with Finland's Mannerheim
It's the thing about them. They were excellent in numbers. But by themselves, they generally sucked. Because of how rushed Russian tanks were, lot of them had different armor potentials. Some had weaker armor, some had stronger armor. Like. Optimally, a T-34 would have 80% of the armor it was supposed to be designed with, but because of quality of metal and how rushed it was, some T34s had only like 20 to 40% armor quality
@@admiraljetro8783 cite your sources. I don't believe they could be fielded with amour with as low as *20 percent* of their original value. Even 40 percent sound too low too, but that's more optimistic.

Your video states that reactive armor was added to the T55s in the 90s, I think your dates are off by about 5-7 years. When I faced GSFG forces in the 80s, we were monitoring their implementation of reactive armor on T64s and T72s (I don't recall any reports of reactive armor being deployed to any older models). During this time, we considered T64s as outdated, mainly used for export, and the T72s as the main Soviet battle tank. GSFG armies converted from T64s to T72s during the 80s. [Source: My service time in the US Second Armored Division.] (GSFG - Group of Soviet Forces in Germany.)
T-55 got upgrades in 1980s. In 1990s Russian army had other things to do than upgrading outdated tanks. In 1993 it finally decided to write off outdated models including things like JS-2 and other weaponary of questionable combat value. I suppose that on 01 Jan 2000 Russian army had no operational T-54/55. T-62 still remained and it happened that they were in 42th division which participated in 08.08.08 war. I guess the government was surprised that such relicts are still in use and soon they were transferred to conservation. If you was in Germany you should see mostly 1st-line tanks like T-64 and T-80 may be T-72. Outdated models considered not suitable to fight new Western weaponary were transferred to internal regions. F. e. Soviet 40th army which fought in Afghanistan had a lot of junk not only tanks but old MiG-21 fighters made in 1960s (MiG-21bis from 1972 was much more advanced) and etc and T-54 variants (T-62 in fact version of T-54 too) were it's main tank for the whole war. I guess because of very small tank losses (~100 tanks for near 10 years long war)

Cool video and animation!
I just wanted to clarify a couple of points, the T-64 and T-72 are related tanks that were only made at different factories, the T64 was completely innovative, they wanted to make everything new at once, and because of this there were a lot of problems during manufacture, and the T72 followed the path of gradual modernization and debugging of production
because of this, it significantly simplified and reduced the cost of the design, so the T-72A, T-72B, T-72B1, T72M .....
The T-10 is the last heavy tank, and then we thought,
Why do we need two different classes of tanks, they are similar in armor, the guns are the same, let's combine medium and heavy tanks, take speed and cross-country ability from medium, and from heavy armor and a gun, so the main battle tank (MBT) was made
There was an IT-1 tank (tank destroyer-1) in the 60s, it was armed only with missiles, and after some deliberation, they decided to combine the MBT, which had a rifled weapon with the IT-1, hence the 125 mm smoothbore cannon for firing missiles.

You know what wasnt Russian? The Soviet Union.
I didn't realize the American, Christie had such an influence on Soviet tank design
It was perfect for the vast, open terrain of Russia/Eastern Europe. Christie tried selling his tanks to the US Army, but they basically told him "Boy we in the middle of a depression, do you think we can afford tanks!?", so he went to the Soviets, and the rest is history. The BT series was really impressive for the time. They were the fastest tanks around at that point, and had one of the better tank guns of the inter-war era (When most tanks were rocking 20mm autocannons or 37mm anti-tank cannons, the Soviets standardized on a whopping 45mm cannon)
Their performance during the war was a little disappointing, but they were designed as offensive weapons, to exploit breakthroughs in enemy lines. Instead they found themselves fighting a defensive war where none of the BT's advantages could be used (Though they did kick the crap out of the Japanese during their border conflicts in Manchuria)
@@Branflakes143 I always thought the Christie suspension was chosen because you can drive it without tracks, and due to the very low track resourse Soviets tanks had in the 30s

No matter the design, every single tank the Soviet's and Russian's made had the "Special Turret Ejection System" when hit, truly a one of a kind feature.
@Not_Ambrose I mean it had the same burn rate as ANY OTHER TANK because you know... They get hit? And was less likely to get it's turret popped off and give the crew a chance to escape And with the ammo moved and with new wet ammo stowage the Sherman was actually one of the tanks less likely to burn when hit... Unlike some designs **ahem** T-34 **ahem** who's turret just makes it's own space program.
@Not_Ambrose yep that's why I said they moved it, it had a good chance to be set on fire, but the room inside and well placed escape hatches gave the crew a chance to escape, and yeah the T-34 had fuel in it's fighting compartment so when it gets hit, either the turret is gone or the ammo cooks off, that's why there so many pictures of T-34s with no turret or burnt, and it's cramped space doesn't help.
Thankfully west design MBTs since the 80s prevented such problem
@Not_Ambrose No, they were pictures from the allies and from the USSR themselves, and yeah with the tight space I doubt the crew could survive a hit, let alone the driver, cause you see, the T-34 was over heat treated making the armor quite sturdy but EXTREMELY brittle, that's why even the 37mm AT guns, so called the "Door Knocker" because on paper the T-34, was able to withstand the hit... Which didn't happen in early designs, the moment the tank got hit, the armor shatters both outside and inside, flinging extremely hot and sharp metal debris at very fast speeds ricocheting inside the tank turning it into a human blender, also the fuel inside the fighting compartment either burns or explode, and guess what happens? The crew dies.
Also, many tanks had a driver's hatch, the Shermans? Yep, the panzers? Yep(some panzer models didn't but still, most models had one) British tanks? Yep, how the hell would the driver get in without a hatch?
@Not_Ambrose if you still don't believe me with the crew survivability thing, the T-34 suffered thousands of crew deaths reaching up to 300,000 compared to the Sherman's 1,500 (half outside the tank) and people still call the Sherman a deathtrap even though the T-34 who they praised to be rugged, cheap(even though it costed as much as the Sherman), "reliable" (the T-34 had the biggest fail rate during the war, constant breakdowns, cheaply manufactured ect)
Was one of the most deadly tanks to be in (80% crew survivability).

@@PatriotAnimates Spain without the s
Nice video. Here are some minor errors I could pick:
- when talking about WW2 NVD a Thermal sight is shown instead of a IR Night vision.
- T72B3 is said to be still found, implying that it's old but still used (although 2016 is mentioned, which is also contradicting the info implied). In fact it's the latest modernization meant to update old versions of tanks to modern standards. By 2021 T-72B3 is the most common MBT in their arsenal.
- When talking about T-80U, the text comments are misplaced, ERA text shown on the engine compartment, and the new engine being shown where ERA is.
-T-28 is categorised as a medium tank, not a heavy tank.
- KV-2 was a behemoth, but a very inefficient tank. It was primarily designed to fight Finish defensive buildings, not tanks. It had a lot of room for failure, starting with gun buffer jams and turret jams (when shot ate some angles, so it was ok to shoot forward, but not ok to shoot sideways) and topping with it being stuck and abandoned most of the times.
- When showing the IS-1 on the blueprint font, it's actually still KV-85.
A major error is that the author uses the old categorization when talking about modern tanks. Modern tanks are somewhat a trade between heavy and medium tanks carrying features from both categories, and they are categorized as Main Battle Tanks (MBT). If i remember it right, the last medium tank in USSR was T-62. T-64 already being an MBT carrying a significantly upgraded armour and gun while maintaining its speed. So when saying "our last medium tank" and "MBT" in the same paragraph (T-14) is contradictive and partially wrong.
As i said, it's very nice video, but i see a lot of room for improvement. Starting with editing the errors, and restructuring the video by showing light and medium tanks evolution, then heavy tank evolution, and finishing with the combined solutions of the previous concepts that emerged in the MBT category.
Is this a hobby of yours? Because I feel like you have experience critiquing with how well you wrote your comment.
Your remarks are correct and to the point. Hopefully, the author will take them into consideration. Well done.
He's actually not wrong about T-14 being medium tank. USSR and Russia never adopted MBT class so in official documentation T-14 is called "medium tank". It's a little confusing but interesting fact.
@@lKeKeKel interesting, if you can come with some proof, because knowing Russian I find myself slightly skeptical. I never heard it being called medium. I'd assume your source might have a translation error, otherwise I'm genuinely curious.

For one, the in the part about the T-34 1940, a 1941 model is instead shown, along with misstating the T-14 production numbers, failing to explain how ERA works (the early ERA detonates, providing more of a air gap between a projectile and the actual armor, NOT destroying the projectile), stating the A-30 and A-20 as “production tanks” when in reality they were only prototypes, stating that the USSR was fighting the taliban in Afghanistan (they weren’t), calling the BT-2 a B-2, and showing a late model IS-2 hull on the IS-1. In all, this video just feels like a poorly researched script with a fancy thumbnail and animation glued over it to make it seem “acceptable”. (Also budgetary constraints stopped you from talking about the T-26? BUDGETARY CONSTRAINTS? You aren’t making a movie, it’s not that hard to draw a T-26 and voice over it)

Heavy Tank.
@@winchesterchua3311 technically it was more of an SPG than anything else. It was armoured and armed like a darned heavy tank, but it wasn’t really meant for upfront combat and more of an SPG role.

Every video feels like a 1 hour long documentary produced by a 30 man team, keep up the good work
I watched the whole sponsor and my brain was like

Ага. Вот бы еще русские субтитры.

You forgot to mention the introduction of an innovative automatic gun loader in T-64. That allowed to make the turret smaller and reduce the crew from 4 to 3.
That rich guy never learned to park his car somewhere else 🤣
Good share,very

t-34 and kv-1 were a game changer on the Eastern Front; and helped stopped the Germans before Moscow
Argubly no. The amount of T-34s was limited until the end of 1942, compared to other tanks. Infact, in the famous tank battle at Prohorovka, a good number of the soviet tanks were T-60 and T-70 light tanks.
What stoped the Germans before Moscow was the fact that they had lost over half of their tanks, many infantry divisions were hundreds of kilometers from the front and the Russians were able to scrape together an army to hold the line.
Soviet tanks were so ferocious and so formidable in battle by numbers and by power that the even the fuhrer Adolf Hitler himself was extremely frustrated as captured in the only personal voice recording in a conversation with Finland's Mannerheim
It's the thing about them. They were excellent in numbers. But by themselves, they generally sucked. Because of how rushed Russian tanks were, lot of them had different armor potentials. Some had weaker armor, some had stronger armor. Like. Optimally, a T-34 would have 80% of the armor it was supposed to be designed with, but because of quality of metal and how rushed it was, some T34s had only like 20 to 40% armor quality
@@admiraljetro8783 cite your sources. I don't believe they could be fielded with amour with as low as *20 percent* of their original value. Even 40 percent sound too low too, but that's more optimistic.
@@admiraljetro8783 however I could be totally wrong in my suspicion. Please cite the source we both benefit from that.
@@admiraljetro8783 also they had a lot of problems like how sometimes water during rain was able to hit electronics and damage them due to some armor issues
@@admiraljetro8783 I guess in 1941 they ALSO were "excellent in NUMBERS".

Kinda sad you did not mention the IS-7. Only 2 prototypes where built but it was truly a masterpiece of a tank.
IS-7 produced 7 prototypes and several pre-production models
How come the soviet didn't finished them??, was it because of mechanical issues or is it something else??

7:00 the depiction of the T-34 1940 has the later F34 cannon, this makes it a T-34 1941, the L11 has a distinctive mounting
22:25 ‘pike nose turret’. I think you guys got the turret and hull mixed up.
Your video states that reactive armor was added to the T55s in the 90s, I think your dates are off by about 5-7 years. When I faced GSFG forces in the 80s, we were monitoring their implementation of reactive armor on T64s and T72s (I don't recall any reports of reactive armor being deployed to any older models). During this time, we considered T64s as outdated, mainly used for export, and the T72s as the main Soviet battle tank. GSFG armies converted from T64s to T72s during the 80s. [Source: My service time in the US Second Armored Division.] (GSFG - Group of Soviet Forces in Germany.)
The T-64 has never been exported, unlike the T-72, and the T-64 will be somewhat more perfect.
T-55 got upgrades in 1980s. In 1990s Russian army had other things to do than upgrading outdated tanks. In 1993 it finally decided to write off outdated models including things like JS-2 and other weaponary of questionable combat value. I suppose that on 01 Jan 2000 Russian army had no operational T-54/55. T-62 still remained and it happened that they were in 42th division which participated in 08.08.08 war. I guess the government was surprised that such relicts are still in use and soon they were transferred to conservation.
If you was in Germany you should see mostly 1st-line tanks like T-64 and T-80 may be T-72. Outdated models considered not suitable to fight new Western weaponary were transferred to internal regions. F. e. Soviet 40th army which fought in Afghanistan had a lot of junk not only tanks but old MiG-21 fighters made in 1960s (MiG-21bis from 1972 was much more advanced) and etc and T-54 variants (T-62 in fact version of T-54 too) were it's main tank for the whole war. I guess because of very small tank losses (~100 tanks for near 10 years long war)
T-72 is a downgraded T-64. And the t-64 was never exported what are you talking about
Wtf they haven’t made 2300 t-14s. They have maybe 19.
Edit: Looks like you just pulled your info from Wikipedia. Sad.
Wikipedia said that it doesn't even reach 1000 yet
It's probably the number of tanks the Ministry of Defence ordered
