@12JK4FFG yes. I'm not trying to make Russia look good. Also if it's the incident I'm thinking of it was a parade rehearsal that it got stuck. My source is a Task & Purpose video.
A former German tank designer interviewed on the channel of Panzermuseum Munster said that the idea of unmanned turrets was well researched, but western engineers never liked it much (outside a few ill-fated attempts like the concepts leading up to the M60 Starship). It had too many practical issues for simple things, like no longer having the option to stick your head out of the turret to look at something that's at a bad angle for a camera. The designer also emphasised that Armata's size is now much more comparable to western tanks than the former Soviet designs.
@@alexburke1899 It's the same old story. The Russians crow about their new being more advanced than their Western counterpart. Then they can only afford to produce 4 or 5 of them, same as our military industrial complex's technology demonstrators.
Russia initially embarked on a massive program to equip its forces with this tank but never got beyond the production of a few prototype tanks and then changed its tune, saying that its current tanks were competitive with NATO tanks and that it would just modernize its existing tanks. This is strikingly similar to the hype about the Su-57 and then Russia's backtracking that the Su-35 was good enough for its defense needs but then has come out now saying that its going to develop its latest and greatest Su-75. I think what we are seeing with this country is an attempt to create halo weapon systems with which to dazzle unwary potential arms customers in the international market. We've seen its overhyped and underperforming missile defense systems that get defeated by Western technology when operated by Russia's customers. Russia is like an international used car salesman, let the buyer beware.
Main problem with all the new systems is that Russia, while a huge country, has an economy on par with say, Spain in size. They have the skill and tech to put them together, but then the money bags are empty so back to the old stuff... again.
I live in California. Even our economy is bigger than Russia. If we were a nation, we would be have the sixth largest economy in the world. Ironically, the video showed a large number of T-72. The tank that Russia can really afford. They are even putting a large number of more advanced T-80 and T-90 in storage. Only the armored units in the Western Military District facing NATO have all T-80 and T-90. All other armored units in the rest of Russia are mostly upgraded T-72, ex. T-72B3.
They have tech probably more advance than Nato by now cuz nato almost abolished all military due to peace and no needed intervetionsm althoug Russia has problems with mass producing stuff if they do they will overtrun power to their side
The answer is no for three reasons. Reason 1: the Russian military can't afford to buy very many of them, so it's highly unlikely that they'd play a decisive role. Reason 2: the Russian military has clearly demonstrated that they do not understand armored or aerial combat in the least and, as such, any vehicle they deploy is going to be significantly less effective. Reason 3: the Armata has very good crew safety, but it's even more prone to a mission kill by shooting the turret than even older Soviet tanks or NATO tanks.

@Skawei oi, russian bot, looks like you really don't know much about anti tank ammunitions. You can destroy any kind of tank in a single hit, the thing is where you hit it and how strong the projectile is
Honestly its hard to feel threatened by this tank when they cant produce enough of them to even equip a brigade. Tbh i think its going to take them at least 10 years to make it in large enough numbers for it to be their mbt and by that time its going to be obsolete.
It's possible the T-14 is just an example of what Russia usually does. Take a concept, like an unmanned turret, and push it as far as it can possibly go, then pare it down to something practical. What that would mean is that the Armata family is going to be used as a platform from which Russia will build a more practical tank with things like an unmanned turret and a hard kill APS
@@filmandfirearms I agree. Create the ultimate tank then make it affordable through sacrificing some design elements, all the while dovetailing it’s capabilities with your overall doctrine. It is the ultimate armor fighting vehicle.
@@philipgates988 no. This is a common myth. American troops carried bazookas and would often either wait for the panzer to stop or they would ambush the panzer from the sides. The panzer was also not feared by the Sherman as it was able to easily outmaneuver the panzer and hit it from the side since the panzer's only 2 strengths are heavy frontal armor and a big gun. Everything else about the tank is a result of being hyped up by Wehraboos and hollywood movies, and in reality is actually completely garbage.
@Ozymandias Nullifidian Well that's hardly true. Russia has only owned Crimea since 1783. That's a shorter time than the U.S has existed. The fact that Russia has decided to "Take back" Crimea is simple politics. Sevastopol has a massive warm water port, something Russia has always desired. So to get this warm water port they wrongfully invaded an independent country. Russia is in the wrong here. And always will be.
Gaius Wyrden I can only imagine what American heavy drones will do to Russian military equipment (Predator C1, MQ reaper 9, 25, X47, etc), I think the world saw the ineffectiveness of Russian anti aircraft weapons in 2020 ( Syria, Libya and now Azerbaijan) a 50k drone missile destroys 115 million S300 or 13 million Pantsir S1
23:50 "It's cost seems to be precluding its production in very high numbers." If you think that was a problem before Feb 2022, it's going to become an even bigger problem going forward. Tell me, can they build this without western microprocessors? China doesn't make microprocessors, you know. And I'm not sure it will be a good idea to load the Russian military with Chinese electronics. Every system will have excellent back doors you never find until China decides to turn off the entire Russian military.
I was thinking the same thing. Russia has only produced about 20 T-14s to date. And given the financial and technological sanctions caused by Russia's invasion of Ukraine, they may not be able to produce very many, if any, for the next decade. Meanwhile Russia's actions will have boosted NATOs military spending by another 1% of GDP or so for the next decade. And since NATOs GDP is much higher than Russia's (and will be relatively less affected by the war and sanctions) the existing spending disparity (NATO spent 12x more than Russia in 2016, so will probably outspend Russia by 20x-25x each year for the next decade) will only increase. Looks like Putin's war will trigger a repeat of how Reagan's military spending v. USSR essentially bankrupted the USSR at the end of the cold war.

@@giovanni-ed7zq There's a difference between taking ground and keeping it - tanks are for the second-wave once the air-battle's been won to comb out any remaining hostile forces with less losses than you would get with pure infantry. Or, they should be at least *looks at Russia...* As for defence, a tank is significantly easier to hide than a jet (which normally needs an airstrip+hangars+all the equpiment needed to re-arm, repair and refuel it) - as all you need to do is drive to a position with a decent view and some foiliage, throw a camo net and drape some shrubbery over it - wait a week or so when the airstrikes have died down and the enemy convoys are coming in and then clean off and jump into the tank, fire off a few HE shells to decimate an incoming enemy convoy at many times the range of standard infantry anti-tank weapons - then relocate (while being entirely safe from any small-scale retaliation), cover up the tank and take cover in the 10 or so minutes it'll probably take for the enemy to scramble an airstrike. Also, don't forget that active defence systems exist and can be mounted on tanks now - so it'll take a lot more than a single missile to kill a modern western tank. Throw in the fact that countries like Germany have developed armour which can emulate different heat signitures to throw off enemy targeting/identification and they're far from irrelevent - they just have a lesser role now within combined arms doctrine than they did in previous conflicts.
@@giovanni-ed7zq Not many countries can perform that sort of air dominance. Even for the USAF, which considers it a specialty of theirs, it's something that takes immense planning and concentration of resources and is even then only possible due to being a truly world class force.

If you think that's propaganda and T-90M don't have 3rd Gen for the commander you should know that T-90M uses a French made (and latter licensed built) Thales thermal viewer.

The Armata won't be standard with the Guards Motorized rifle regiments/tank regiments until the late 2020s-2035. I'd say by 2035. They would have to phase out all the t-90s, 72BMs, and whatever 80Us they have left to make room.
They don't have to phase them out at all, they'll supply them on the cheap to Syria, Armenia, Iran, Egypt to further push their influence there without direct involvement.
@Antoine Lachapelle They could export them but they would be in service with other countries even if those countries are in Russia's sphere of influence. Or the Russians would supply the leftover vehicles to the reservists or Cat B formations if those still exist (Cat B and C formations did during Soviet times).
In Desert Storm Americans proved that ground army is a sitting duck without Air Superiority. As long as T-14 enjoys safe from air strike battleground then yeah why not.
You’re still buying into the brochure as if all these systems work flawlessly. In such a corrupt culture as modern Russia, problems with complex systems are hidden or downplayed so that everyone can report a positive result to their immediate superior. The design is impressive at arm’s length but the reality is that most Russian weapons are the products of cutting corners. Then consider who crews these tanks? the quality of Russian forces has been catastrophically overestimated against the obvious facts that they are very poorly paid and training is obviously deficient. If the T14 goes into battle as poorly protected by infantry as the T-72s, T-80s and T-90s in Ukraine, they’ll be handled in the popular manner.
NATO tank: exist in operation T14: does not exist in operation So this is not even a competition. T14 is a nice concept on paper, but Russia does not have the financial power to go from concept to operational use
I like these arguments when people say the SU-57 is better than XXXX or the T-14 is better than XXXX. Even if that's true it doesn't matter since both of those examples have serious issues that are delaying them from being built in any significant number. The Me 262 was well beyond the capabilities of aircraft during it's time. It didn't matter because there were just too few of them. The bigger hypothetical isn't if the T-14 is better than it's contemporaries. It's if they can even build them lol.

Thanks Binkov. If Russia produced a new generation tank that outcompeted all other tanks by far, however it would never rule the battlefields as Russia simply does not have the money to build any high end military units an any kind of meaningful numbers. Having said that, the Russians do really need the T14 in meaningful numbers, because their current tanks and armoured units are getting absolutely OBLITERATED in Ukraine. It's a horrible situation for 90% of the Russian soldiers who do not even want to be there.
@@Likeaworm Robert is correct. Even the M1A1 was proof against a hard kill from an A10. Immobilize it yes (which in modern battle means it will become a hard kill). I knew the head design engineer at Chrysler Defense who designed the M1 gun system (who worked for my father before changing companies) as well as the engineer who designed the gau gun drive (my father). It was actually something considered as part of the design and something discussed during the armor tests. Oh and his top speed number for the M1 is way off and low and I assume its off for the others.
@A TV A-10 is a nice stationary target for the Pantsir, BUK-M3, TOR-M2U, S-300, S-350, S-400 and so on. Have a nice day. They can send A-10 to heLL, with just a simple click of a button.
The A-10 is fairly niche in the modern battlefield, as it is relatively slow and lacks stealth. It's main advantages are cost per mission/hour and ability to stay in an area for a long time (loiter time). It's great for asymmetrical warfare. However, anywhere that expensive modern assets like the T-14 are deployed would also likely have AA support sufficient to deter it. A more likely aerial threat would be smart bombs dropped from high altitude, for example, from an F35.
They have 10 T 14s, just 10. Three are prototypes. They were supposed to have 100 the first year. If people haven't been paying attention, tanks are no longer the weapons they were. Drones are the weapons that will win battles.
Drones didn’t win the Afghanistan War Jokes aside, the T-14 suffers the problems of the Tiger 2, although we might never see how great they are fully, they were so lowly produced that 100 tanks on each front won’t help, maybe win a Skirmish but the war is lost just due to mobility alone
I wouldn't count on them ruling any battlefield when military tech has sort of evolved away from the traditional battlefield and either moved towards American-style air superiority or low-tech terrorists tactics. A tank is great to have as support once you've got a position you want to hold onto, but in reality you shouldn't expect to see much tank on tank fighting any more... unless Russia and China decide to have a go at each other.
In a short war or a war where enemy air defense's aren't a factor that makes sense. After two years of attrition you can count on America slowly running out air assets and having to be more careful, that doesnt factor in what happens when they can't establish air dominance to begin with.

@@anguswaterhouse9255 have you seen the simulations for modern air wars? Guided missiles reduce the survival rate to around 3% for pilots regardless of which side you're on.

There's no way the US establishing air dominance over the South China sea let alone the mainland with any kind of ease. Most simulations show entire carrier groups being lost. Russia would be a similar problem with the added issue of geography. You can't send enough planes to dominate an area that big.

“The T-14 is using one generation newer reactive armor plates than those on the T-90” okay so the T-72’s had cardboard and garbage in the reactive panels. The T-90’s had blocks of old rubber. What comes after old rubber in the development tree? Plywood?
Interesting to see, that especially the newer Gen (at least NATO, don't know for Russia) autocannons are more and more optimized to be able to mission kill the optics of battle tanks, something that was considered in the development of Puma's weaponry and the related precision - if you can't penetrate them that easy anymore, first overfeed hardkill, then destroy sensors, day over.
The only advantages the Russian tanks had to offer were that they were simple, they were reliable, and they could be made in numbers. T-14 is complicated, expensive, will require a massive investment in training, and they'll never field a full division. It's a paper tank. In perfect conditions without dust and dirt, that tank is going to look pretty good. In the field, I doubt they'll be able to maintain them for any length of time. They made the classic mistake of building a weapon to fight the last war.

Yeah. This hasn't come to fruition much since most conflicts since the collapse of the USSR has been against smaller countries or unconventional units who lack the funding for good air support. In a conventional war against better funded armies, I could see MANPADs being mounted onto existing armored vehicles to protect against air attack. A .50 wont cut it today as any aerial threats to armor are too far, too fast, or too armored for an M2 or NSV(even a RWS equipped one) to be a real threat.
It is always misleading to compare one isolated weapon with another isolated weapon. All weapons operate within a tactical system of combined arms, command, control, communication and intelligence. All of this has to be considered when comparing one MILITARY and how it operates against another.
Some Russian official is probably now sitting somewhere in an hidden office, his face burried in his hands as Binkov here is so expertly revealing all the aspects of their new tank.
Not really. Binkov is hugely biased towards NATO in all videos when it touches the tech and quality of equipment. So his very slight and inconfident approval of T-14 actually speaks that even he couldn't disagree at how good that tank is, even though he would love to critisize it as much as possible.

Im a Russian myself , and the thing is the Russians although advertise it alot , they wont use them as much , as our Main tanks are still T-90s and 80s and 72s B3 The Armata is somewhat of a support tank? Like best way i can explain it is imagine a Maus tank , it wouldnt be alone and would sort of sit back and take enemies out while the main battle is going on. Due to its powerful sights and such I belive it will be somewhat of a sniper tank , sitting back , taking a hit or too while being in a hull down position , not running around the battlefield like a crazy man.

Nope, it's an obsolete bucket of bolts before it even entered production and they can't even afford to build many of them. It's been one year since the invasion of Ukraine and the T-14 has yet to appear on the battlefield.
Good God. NOT ONE of these tanks are in service, and the production run of 2300 has been reduced to 100. TOTAL. That's twenty minutes of work for a single A-10.
I feel like I'm watching a video about the best new battleship design in 1945. Fascinating perhaps, but ultimately probably pretty worthless in a modern conflict.
Well, tanks aren’t what we like to think pf them as, at least not anymore. However, it is as of yet not possible to replace them because no military has been able to come up with a system that can plug the holes left in the doctrine by removing tanks, so they aren’t dead *yet.*
Interesting video, and nice to see a candid discussion about how rapidly Russia (in 2020) could field these tanks. My thought is that, 1) they need more of them, now; 2) but, given budget constraints and further pressure due to sanctions related to the (in my opinion) absolutely catastrophic decision to invade Ukraine, will push this window out - way out. The narrator mentions crew protection in the T-14. If memory serves, the T-90s currently serving in Ukraine have a similar setup, and yet we see burnt-out rusted hulks, trackless and without turrets, in almost every photo. If I were appointed a driver, I may well get my affairs in order pronto. Not to argue that the same might be applicable to **any** tank, just to note that the removal of personnel from the turret may have limited benefits - if any.
It's amazing how good a Tank can be if you don't actually manufacture it and just release specs. Also if you do that, you can bill the Kremlin for the costs and divvy up the money between Putin, the Generals and Manufacturer who released the Specs. It is the Russian way of hardware design in the Putin era. If there is ever an actual war, just ship T-62 and T-54s and no one will ever know the difference.
A limited 1st world military with a 3rd world economy equates to the T-14 being another "wonder weapon" that dictators love so much. No matter how effective they are they would be quickly eleminated due to overwhelming numbers of comparable tanks and anti-armor assets and lack of depth in their logistics chain. But what's important is future Binkov videos. Might I suggest Papua New Guinea canaballistic head hunters versus the current US House of Representatives. I would love to see the aftermath.
Russia is far ahead of a 3rd world economy. Not saying they equal the west however they aren't as far back as the former USSR was. Also for my 2 cents long term good/great relationships with Russia is far more likely than with China. Now while it would be fun watching headhunters going after congress (both houses actually) they would have to be warned that eating a congress critter most probably would cause at least food poisoning if not outright death as tainted as they are.

And its kinda funny but for average citizin even Belarus have higher standard of living not to mention ex soviet republic or most ex eastern block countries
Some truth in this but I don't know where the overwhelming numbers of enemy tanks are coming from. NATO has greatly slashed it tank numbers, Armoured divisions are very expensive to maintain in peace time, though Poland has greatly increased them. There is even now a bizarre debate about abolishing the tank. The main NATO advantage is going to be in the air as the US can fly in almost any number of its huge reserve of aircraft within days, as long as the ground facilities are still usable. However NATO has some similar problems to that of the Germans in going to war against Russia in WW2. NATO equipment is highly engineered according to the doctrine of tactical superiority, win the battle and you win the war. This did not work out for Germany because of the prolonged nature of the conflict. NATO too has very limited stocks of ammunition which is vastly expensive to produce and it would be long and costly to also replace losses in materiel and men. In the short-term Russia has an advantage because it takes time for NATO to bring US heavy division across the Atlantic, but this advantage will quickly diminish as US airpower builds up. In the middle-term NATO has a strong advantage once it can bring its full ground forces and air power to bear. If however NATO cannot force a victory quite quickly they could be faced with a sudden massive downgrading of their tactical capabilities due to losses of the their most expensive and difficult to replace weapons systems and shortages of extremely expensive ordnance. NATO has another problem in a technologically downgraded long war, the shortage of manpower. NATO armies are capital intensive relying on the firepower of technology, but have much reduced manpower. This caused serious problems in Iraq. Russia still has a rather more labour intensive army. If the war goes on for long NATO will struggle to hold any ground against Russian infantry.
16:27 that is just a stupid comment, have you ever heard of cities, forests, mountains or hills? sure on an open and flat field or desert, they will engage on a to long-distance for the naked eye to be of much use. But that's far from always where a tank will have to fight. Especially if the tank is attacking someone who knows they got a disadvantage against the tank, then they can easily choose to fight somewhere else.

@@TheCerebralDude Modern remote weapon stations have equally as good sensors and fire control as the main gun. It can make short work of tiny drones in anti-air role. Not to mention increasing use of jammers onboard tanks as soft kill. Not just against missiles, but IEDs and suicide drones. Also something isn't obsolete unless 1) something does its job better, or 2) it is rendered incapable of fulfilling its role. Neither of these criteria have been met. Nothing does what a tank does better than a tank. Nor are the current anti-tank weapons sufficient at stopping a tank force from doing its job effectively. Syrian tanks are not modern and is a whole generation and possible 2 behind the developed world. There wasn't small suicide drones in the 70s.

First of all Russia is struggling to get the new engine working. They are finding that higher technology items are much harder to build than they expected and they are running into massive quality issues and cost overruns. The current prototypes are using an older engine with far less power, so the rated speeds and range are only expected stats if the engine actually lives up to the stats they hoped. The armor on the T-14 around the crew is really good, but the armor on the back half, rear, top... an especially the turret is weak. The tank is massive, but the weight is not that bad, so all the physical armor is only to protect the crew. It is so weak in the back that they added the cages to protect the engines from hits from a simple RPG. The turret has even less armor. They are relying too heavily on their active defenses. They have the same dazzler system that current TOW missiles have been programmed to encode to bypass and their active armor is also bypassed by the new TOW with the addition of a 1 meter rod on the end to prematurely detonate it. They also have their tubes under the turret to shoot down incoming missiles, but they have a VERY limited arc. None of the defenses work against the a sabot round and the new round for the M1A2 Sep 3 is strong enough to pernitrate the armor already, but they will be facing the M1A3 likely by the time they ever deploy the T-14. The active armor and dazzler system is the same s what was on the upgraded T-90 and they still suffered roughly 50% casualties from the TOW BGM-71E in Syria. They sent 30 and lost 10 of them. There is a top down version of the TOW now that would bypass all the active defenses of the T-14. 10% lower armor on the turret!?!? You mean it is only 10%. The armor is only about 1/2 to 3/4" of steal. A 50 cal will rip through it. Russia has stated many times the whole design idea of the tank was armor to protect the crew as the priority and the turret was very vulnerable and that they rely heavily on their active defenses. These tanks are going to be taken out instantly in combat... but the crew will likely survive. This tank is a joke. In the end it will not matter as they have drastically cut orders because the price of oil dropped so low and 80% of their tanks are still the old T-72.
@@thatlawnmowerguy9 Until someone gets a lock on it. It is too easy to take out a tank. An F-35 can carry something like 24 Spear-3 missiles and those would make minced meat of any tank. Russia could not maintain air superiority against the US let alone with the EU added in. After that tanks become pretty worthless.
APS at Armata give 270 degree protection. It has pretty complicated system tracking incoming projectile and turning the turret automatically on it to deploy countermeasures. Moreover, if missile launched from open space, it can automatically detect start point of the guided missile and fire HEAT round there to destroy launcher and operator.
Probably can't do both at the same time for off axis incoming... as both require the turret to point in the incoming direction, and the incoming is there before the turret (any turret) can slew. So... simply wait until the turret slews away... and 🔥 fire your AT weapon... this is the Infantry diversion and attack routine.
Actually the APS doesn't work. THe Chinese were thinking of purchasing it but discovered that the APS system doesn't work as advertised and relies on the crew visually seeing an incoming ATGM travelling at the speed of sound and then activating the APS.

A former German tank designer interviewed on the channel of Panzermuseum Munster said that the idea of unmanned turrets was well researched, but western engineers never liked it much (outside a few ill-fated attempts like the concepts leading up to the M60 Starship). It had too many practical issues for simple things, like no longer having the option to stick your head out of the turret to look at something that's at a bad angle for a camera.
The designer also emphasised that Armata's size is now much more comparable to western tanks than the former Soviet designs.

Russia initially embarked on a massive program to equip its forces with this tank but never got beyond the production of a few prototype tanks and then changed its tune, saying that its current tanks were competitive with NATO tanks and that it would just modernize its existing tanks. This is strikingly similar to the hype about the Su-57 and then Russia's backtracking that the Su-35 was good enough for its defense needs but then has come out now saying that its going to develop its latest and greatest Su-75.

Ironically, the video showed a large number of T-72. The tank that Russia can really afford. They are even putting a large number of more advanced T-80 and T-90 in storage. Only the armored units in the Western Military District facing NATO have all T-80 and T-90. All other armored units in the rest of Russia are mostly upgraded T-72, ex. T-72B3.

@@Emporiumtutorial how would a country with the economy of Texas be able to develop technologies rivaling NATO?
the only thing that russia has that is not completely worthless is propably Su-35.
The answer is no for three reasons. Reason 1: the Russian military can't afford to buy very many of them, so it's highly unlikely that they'd play a decisive role. Reason 2: the Russian military has clearly demonstrated that they do not understand armored or aerial combat in the least and, as such, any vehicle they deploy is going to be significantly less effective. Reason 3: the Armata has very good crew safety, but it's even more prone to a mission kill by shooting the turret than even older Soviet tanks or NATO tanks.
Just add that the Armata uses western high tech which is now sanctioned.

I was thinking the same thing. Russia has only produced about 20 T-14s to date. And given the financial and technological sanctions caused by Russia's invasion of Ukraine, they may not be able to produce very many, if any, for the next decade. Meanwhile Russia's actions will have boosted NATOs military spending by another 1% of GDP or so for the next decade. And since NATOs GDP is much higher than Russia's (and will be relatively less affected by the war and sanctions) the existing spending disparity (NATO spent 12x more than Russia in 2016, so will probably outspend Russia by 20x-25x each year for the next decade) will only increase.

As for defence, a tank is significantly easier to hide than a jet (which normally needs an airstrip+hangars+all the equpiment needed to re-arm, repair and refuel it) - as all you need to do is drive to a position with a decent view and some foiliage, throw a camo net and drape some shrubbery over it - wait a week or so when the airstrikes have died down and the enemy convoys are coming in and then clean off and jump into the tank, fire off a few HE shells to decimate an incoming enemy convoy at many times the range of standard infantry anti-tank weapons - then relocate (while being entirely safe from any small-scale retaliation), cover up the tank and take cover in the 10 or so minutes it'll probably take for the enemy to scramble an airstrike. Also, don't forget that active defence systems exist and can be mounted on tanks now - so it'll take a lot more than a single missile to kill a modern western tank.
Throw in the fact that countries like Germany have developed armour which can emulate different heat signitures to throw off enemy targeting/identification and they're far from irrelevent - they just have a lesser role now within combined arms doctrine than they did in previous conflicts.

@George Fenrirbitadze because there aren't enough of them and they probably dont work as well as advertised.. Same with su 57s. Russia's modern military is YT propaganda. Stingers and javelins are wrecking their armor. They can't even keep their gas tanks full during an invasion. Imagine believing they're going to field modern battle tanks en masse.
Given that the US has already gotten detailed information about the Armata and has developed ammunition that is able to penetrate the Armata's armor, and that the tank rounds for NATO are largely standardized (UK has to be an oddball), I'd say no, it won't rule future battlefields. Add to it that Russia cannot produce enough of them to replace combat losses in the event of a major war and it gets worse.
Edit: Alright people, after MONTHS of this comment being up I finally noticed enough to say: UK No longer an oddball and has a smoothbore like all the other cool kids. Armata's even MORE fucked than it was before.

The Armata won't be standard with the Guards Motorized rifle regiments/tank regiments until the late 2020s-2035. I'd say by 2035. They would have to phase out all the t-90s, 72BMs, and whatever 80Us they have left to make room.
They don't have to phase them out at all, they'll supply them on the cheap to Syria, Armenia, Iran, Egypt to further push their influence there without direct involvement.
@Antoine Lachapelle They could export them but they would be in service with other countries even if those countries are in Russia's sphere of influence. Or the Russians would supply the leftover vehicles to the reservists or Cat B formations if those still exist (Cat B and C formations did during Soviet times).

T-14 seem like a great tank on theory, like how communism looks like a savior for humanity on paper.

"Peace was never an Option"
In Desert Storm Americans proved that ground army is a sitting duck without Air Superiority. As long as T-14 enjoys safe from air strike battleground then yeah why not.
You’re still buying into the brochure as if all these systems work flawlessly. In such a corrupt culture as modern Russia, problems with complex systems are hidden or downplayed so that everyone can report a positive result to their immediate superior. The design is impressive at arm’s length but the reality is that most Russian weapons are the products of cutting corners. Then consider who crews these tanks? the quality of Russian forces has been catastrophically overestimated against the obvious facts that they are very poorly paid and training is obviously deficient. If the T14 goes into battle as poorly protected by infantry as the T-72s, T-80s and T-90s in Ukraine, they’ll be handled in the popular manner.
NATO tank: exist in operation
T14: does not exist in operation
So this is not even a competition. T14 is a nice concept on paper, but Russia does not have the financial power to go from concept to operational use

I like these arguments when people say the SU-57 is better than XXXX or the T-14 is better than XXXX. Even if that's true it doesn't matter since both of those examples have serious issues that are delaying them from being built in any significant number.
The Me 262 was well beyond the capabilities of aircraft during it's time. It didn't matter because there were just too few of them.
The bigger hypothetical isn't if the T-14 is better than it's contemporaries. It's if they can even build them lol.
So marginally better, and vastly more expensive...
Looks like the Rus have learned in the F-35 school of weapons development.

At this point, it appears the first foe the T14 needs to beat is the budget
Thanks Binkov. If Russia produced a new generation tank that outcompeted all other tanks by far, however it would never rule the battlefields as Russia simply does not have the money to build any high end military units an any kind of meaningful numbers. Having said that, the Russians do really need the T14 in meaningful numbers, because their current tanks and armoured units are getting absolutely OBLITERATED in Ukraine. It's a horrible situation for 90% of the Russian soldiers who do not even want to be there.

The GAU won’t penetrate modern tanks.
@@stanleyspadowski235 from the top it will and it will definitely fuck the engine bay.
@@Likeaworm Robert is correct. Even the M1A1 was proof against a hard kill from an A10. Immobilize it yes (which in modern battle means it will become a hard kill).
I knew the head design engineer at Chrysler Defense who designed the M1 gun system (who worked for my father before changing companies) as well as the engineer who designed the gau gun drive (my father).
It was actually something considered as part of the design and something discussed during the armor tests.
Oh and his top speed number for the M1 is way off and low and I assume its off for the others.
@A TV
A-10 is a nice stationary target for the Pantsir, BUK-M3, TOR-M2U, S-300, S-350, S-400 and so on. Have a nice day. They can send A-10 to heLL, with just a simple click of a button.
The A-10 is fairly niche in the modern battlefield, as it is relatively slow and lacks stealth. It's main advantages are cost per mission/hour and ability to stay in an area for a long time (loiter time). It's great for asymmetrical warfare. However, anywhere that expensive modern assets like the T-14 are deployed would also likely have AA support sufficient to deter it. A more likely aerial threat would be smart bombs dropped from high altitude, for example, from an F35.
What T14....They can't make it. Its still not in production.
They have 10 T 14s, just 10. Three are prototypes. They were supposed to have 100 the first year. If people haven't been paying attention, tanks are no longer the weapons they were. Drones are the weapons that will win battles.
Drones didn’t win the Afghanistan War
Jokes aside, the T-14 suffers the problems of the Tiger 2, although we might never see how great they are fully, they were so lowly produced that 100 tanks on each front won’t help, maybe win a Skirmish but the war is lost just due to mobility alone
I wouldn't count on them ruling any battlefield when military tech has sort of evolved away from the traditional battlefield and either moved towards American-style air superiority or low-tech terrorists tactics. A tank is great to have as support once you've got a position you want to hold onto, but in reality you shouldn't expect to see much tank on tank fighting any more... unless Russia and China decide to have a go at each other.
In a short war or a war where enemy air defense's aren't a factor that makes sense. After two years of attrition you can count on America slowly running out air assets and having to be more careful, that doesnt factor in what happens when they can't establish air dominance to begin with.
@@TGBurgerGaming The USAF is 12,000 planes overall with 100 f-35's coming off the line every year in peace time which would increase in war.
China+russia have less planes than us believe me you don't base your military stratagy around air power unless you're REALLY wanting to dominate
@@anguswaterhouse9255 have you seen the simulations for modern air wars? Guided missiles reduce the survival rate to around 3% for pilots regardless of which side you're on. You can expect expensive planes to be used sparingly soon after the first few engagements and replacements to be cheaper and easier to mass produce, only less advanced. There's no way the US establishing air dominance over the South China sea let alone the mainland with any kind of ease. Most simulations show entire carrier groups being lost. Russia would be a similar problem with the added issue of geography. You can't send enough planes to dominate an area that big.
@@TGBurgerGaming no one said it be easy but it be done, the us and it's allies have absolute air superiority, they would see heavy losses but would in the end completely or near completely control the skies. These situations aren't good arguments as they are usually unfair and stacked against the us forces and unrealistic as that's the whole point of it.
@@TGBurgerGaming If these simulations were created by American or Eastern Bloc nations, then you probably shouldn't trust it.
For propaganda purposes the Russian and Chinese military liked to hype up their military. The American military on the other hand like to make their own military look weak to ask for more funding from Congress.
“The T-14 is using one generation newer reactive armor plates than those on the T-90” okay so the T-72’s had cardboard and garbage in the reactive panels. The T-90’s had blocks of old rubber. What comes after old rubber in the development tree? Plywood?
Saint Javelin says no.
Hi Binkov, been watching your material for a bit and gotta say this was my favorite. Appreciate you differentiating between factual and estimates.
It's the best ceremony tank ever since it's built for ceremonies only.
Interesting to see, that especially the newer Gen (at least NATO, don't know for Russia) autocannons are more and more optimized to be able to mission kill the optics of battle tanks, something that was considered in the development of Puma's weaponry and the related precision - if you can't penetrate them that easy anymore, first overfeed hardkill, then destroy sensors, day over.
And you think you can kill all the sensors with just one hit ? And, then....next move is his
The only advantages the Russian tanks had to offer were that they were simple, they were reliable, and they could be made in numbers. T-14 is complicated, expensive, will require a massive investment in training, and they'll never field a full division. It's a paper tank. In perfect conditions without dust and dirt, that tank is going to look pretty good. In the field, I doubt they'll be able to maintain them for any length of time. They made the classic mistake of building a weapon to fight the last war.
déjà vu ... same thing was said about Su-57 for years. "not even 5G", "Over rated" "as stealthy as an elefant in the savanna" and then when western specialists started admitting it is a new breed of fighters the criticism became "they cant use it" "too sophisticated" "too expensive to purchase" and when the contract for Su-57 was signed and manufacturng began they switched on to the T-14 ...

How far have they actually gotten? Have they produced ANY? Are they actually complete with sensors and so on?
This is no doubt a top of the line great tank. Interesting to see the Russians scrapping their old doctrine of quantity over quality in favour of better units lately.
Quantity just isn't feasable anymore, as russia isn't one of the most populous countries anymore.
@@ravenknight4876 Russia has barely ever been one of the most populous countries. Even in 1930s Soviet population was 160 million of which only about 110-120 was actual, Russians.

tanks only fear of air attack, no matter how advanced it is !!! Take an example in Nagorno-Karabakh conflict tanks are like target practice for drones even the Armenia and Karabakh has air defence system.
Yeah. This hasn't come to fruition much since most conflicts since the collapse of the USSR has been against smaller countries or unconventional units who lack the funding for good air support. In a conventional war against better funded armies, I could see MANPADs being mounted onto existing armored vehicles to protect against air attack. A .50 wont cut it today as any aerial threats to armor are too far, too fast, or too armored for an M2 or NSV(even a RWS equipped one) to be a real threat.
@@MPdude237 look up what happened to iraqs air defence system

It is always misleading to compare one isolated weapon with another isolated weapon. All weapons operate within a tactical system of combined arms, command, control, communication and intelligence. All of this has to be considered when comparing one MILITARY and how it operates against another.
Today we can answer the question with simple: No.
Some Russian official is probably now sitting somewhere in an hidden office, his face burried in his hands as Binkov here is so expertly revealing all the aspects of their new tank.

Not really. Binkov is hugely biased towards NATO in all videos when it touches the tech and quality of equipment.

We can assume that this tank uses steel, but we do not have reliable information about this.

We should assume that it uses an outer armor layer of steel and internally some kind of composite armor, just like all armor on modern MBT.

Good God. NOT ONE of these tanks are in service, and the production run of 2300 has been reduced to 100. TOTAL. That's twenty minutes of work for a single A-10.
I feel like I'm watching a video about the best new battleship design in 1945. Fascinating perhaps, but ultimately probably pretty worthless in a modern conflict.
Did you just cancel the entire idea of "armoured object"?
Well, tanks aren’t what we like to think pf them as, at least not anymore. However, it is as of yet not possible to replace them because no military has been able to come up with a system that can plug the holes left in the doctrine by removing tanks, so they aren’t dead *yet.*
Interesting video, and nice to see a candid discussion about how rapidly Russia (in 2020) could field these tanks. My thought is that, 1) they need more of them, now; 2) but, given budget constraints and further pressure due to sanctions related to the (in my opinion) absolutely catastrophic decision to invade Ukraine, will push this window out - way out.
The narrator mentions crew protection in the T-14. If memory serves, the T-90s currently serving in Ukraine have a similar setup, and yet we see burnt-out rusted hulks, trackless and without turrets, in almost every photo. If I were appointed a driver, I may well get my affairs in order pronto.
Not to argue that the same might be applicable to **any** tank, just to note that the removal of personnel from the turret may have limited benefits - if any.
It's amazing how good a Tank can be if you don't actually manufacture it and just release specs. Also if you do that, you can bill the Kremlin for the costs and divvy up the money between Putin, the Generals and Manufacturer who released the Specs. It is the Russian way of hardware design in the Putin era. If there is ever an actual war, just ship T-62 and T-54s and no one will ever know the difference.
A limited 1st world military with a 3rd world economy equates to the T-14 being another "wonder weapon" that dictators love so much. No matter how effective they are they would be quickly eleminated due to overwhelming numbers of comparable tanks and anti-armor assets and lack of depth in their logistics chain. But what's important is future Binkov videos. Might I suggest Papua New Guinea canaballistic head hunters versus the current US House of Representatives. I would love to see the aftermath.
Russia is far ahead of a 3rd world economy. Not saying they equal the west however they aren't as far back as the former USSR was.
Also for my 2 cents long term good/great relationships with Russia is far more likely than with China.

And its kinda funny but for average citizin even Belarus have higher standard of living not to mention ex soviet republic or most ex eastern block countries
Some truth in this but I don't know where the overwhelming numbers of enemy tanks are coming from. NATO has greatly slashed it tank numbers, Armoured divisions are very expensive to maintain in peace time, though Poland has greatly increased them. There is even now a bizarre debate about abolishing the tank. The main NATO advantage is going to be in the air as the US can fly in almost any number of its huge reserve of aircraft within days, as long as the ground facilities are still usable. However NATO has some similar problems to that of the Germans in going to war against Russia in WW2. NATO equipment is highly engineered according to the doctrine of tactical superiority, win the battle and you win the war. This did not work out for Germany because of the prolonged nature of the conflict. NATO too has very limited stocks of ammunition which is vastly expensive to produce and it would be long and costly to also replace losses in materiel and men. In the short-term Russia has an advantage because it takes time for NATO to bring US heavy division across the Atlantic, but this advantage will quickly diminish as US airpower builds up. In the middle-term NATO has a strong advantage once it can bring its full ground forces and air power to bear. If however NATO cannot force a victory quite quickly they could be faced with a sudden massive downgrading of their tactical capabilities due to losses of the their most expensive and difficult to replace weapons systems and shortages of extremely expensive ordnance. NATO has another problem in a technologically downgraded long war, the shortage of manpower. NATO armies are capital intensive relying on the firepower of technology, but have much reduced manpower. This caused serious problems in Iraq. Russia still has a rather more labour intensive army. If the war goes on for long NATO will struggle to hold any ground against Russian infantry.

Use real data instead of off the cuff wishes
16:27 that is just a stupid comment, have you ever heard of cities, forests, mountains or hills?
sure on an open and flat field or desert, they will engage on a to long-distance for the naked eye to be of much use. But that's far from always where a tank will have to fight. Especially if the tank is attacking someone who knows they got a disadvantage against the tank, then they can easily choose to fight somewhere else.
After recent events, the answer is most definitely not.
Looks like the answer is a firm no.
And now there's the Challenger 3.
only thing that can save challenger 3 from being behind abrams sepv3 , leos and russian tanks is aps
@@super_slav_6183 which it has
@@super_slav_6183 and the fact is has the best armour in the world, but thanks everyone else for showing up.
@@stephen2583 sure m8, that armour wont prottec against modern ammunition
@@super_slav_6183 Says who? No country in the world has access to british armour so no one in the world can test to see how effective or ineffective their weapons would be. And as the armour is uniquely different from any other armour in the world you cannot make a comparative test.
Right.... They have around 14 battle ready t-14s last I heard, that is no threat to any country......
They have no money.
The era of the tank as the main component in advancing on the ground has passed
@David Uriel Heavy armor wiped out recently by drones in Syria
No it hasn’t
@@burnttoaster6313 1 They are too heavy to moved to a conflict zone quickly and in large numbers
2 They absorb a huge amount of resources to keep them operating in combat. An Abrams needs like 6 gallons of fuel PER MILE
3 They have become extremely vulnerable to the latest drones and air launched anti tank weapons
@@TheCerebralDude Modern remote weapon stations have equally as good sensors and fire control as the main gun. It can make short work of tiny drones in anti-air role. Not to mention increasing use of jammers onboard tanks as soft kill. Not just against missiles, but IEDs and suicide drones. Also something isn't obsolete unless 1) something does its job better, or 2) it is rendered incapable of fulfilling its role. Neither of these criteria have been met. Nothing does what a tank does better than a tank. Nor are the current anti-tank weapons sufficient at stopping a tank force from doing its job effectively.
Syrian tanks are not modern and is a whole generation and possible 2 behind the developed world. There wasn't small suicide drones in the 70s. Syrian tanks don't have the current generation of fire control computers for their main gun. Let alone remote weapon stations. Of course they will do poorly.
@@neurofiedyamato8763 1 Something does do it’s job better, attack helicopters. They are far easier to move in force to far away war zone they are faster can return to support bases to refuel and rearm; and can match tanks in firepower I
I’m from the feature the answer is no.
First of all Russia is struggling to get the new engine working. They are finding that higher technology items are much harder to build than they expected and they are running into massive quality issues and cost overruns. The current prototypes are using an older engine with far less power, so the rated speeds and range are only expected stats if the engine actually lives up to the stats they hoped.
The armor on the T-14 around the crew is really good, but the armor on the back half, rear, top... an especially the turret is weak. The tank is massive, but the weight is not that bad, so all the physical armor is only to protect the crew. It is so weak in the back that they added the cages to protect the engines from hits from a simple RPG. The turret has even less armor. They are relying too heavily on their active defenses. They have the same dazzler system that current TOW missiles have been programmed to encode to bypass and their active armor is also bypassed by the new TOW with the addition of a 1 meter rod on the end to prematurely detonate it. They also have their tubes under the turret to shoot down incoming missiles, but they have a VERY limited arc. None of the defenses work against the a sabot round and the new round for the M1A2 Sep 3 is strong enough to pernitrate the armor already, but they will be facing the M1A3 likely by the time they ever deploy the T-14. The active armor and dazzler system is the same s what was on the upgraded T-90 and they still suffered roughly 50% casualties from the TOW BGM-71E in Syria. They sent 30 and lost 10 of them. There is a top down version of the TOW now that would bypass all the active defenses of the T-14.
10% lower armor on the turret!?!? You mean it is only 10%. The armor is only about 1/2 to 3/4" of steal. A 50 cal will rip through it. Russia has stated many times the whole design idea of the tank was armor to protect the crew as the priority and the turret was very vulnerable and that they rely heavily on their active defenses. These tanks are going to be taken out instantly in combat... but the crew will likely survive. This tank is a joke.
In the end it will not matter as they have drastically cut orders because the price of oil dropped so low and 80% of their tanks are still the old T-72.
It will do fine, tanks with virtually no armour can still work effectively if they have better mobility/gun.
@@thatlawnmowerguy9 Until someone gets a lock on it. It is too easy to take out a tank. An F-35 can carry something like 24 Spear-3 missiles and those would make minced meat of any tank. Russia could not maintain air superiority against the US let alone with the EU added in. After that tanks become pretty worthless.
Whenever Russia shows a new toy they end up not having the funding so lol
Just keep telling yourself that LOL
Will Kanoff They have already stopped producing T-14
Will Kanoff XD because it’s true moron
@@TheCerebralDude Whatever floats your boat dude....
Will Kanoff facts float my boat 🚣♀️
Armata never been to a fight, its only a prototype
APS at Armata give 270 degree protection. It has pretty complicated system tracking incoming projectile and turning the turret automatically on it to deploy countermeasures. Moreover, if missile launched from open space, it can automatically detect start point of the guided missile and fire HEAT round there to destroy launcher and operator.
Probably can't do both at the same time for off axis incoming... as both require the turret to point in the incoming direction, and the incoming is there before the turret (any turret) can slew. So... simply wait until the turret slews away... and 🔥 fire your AT weapon... this is the Infantry diversion and attack routine.
Actually the APS doesn't work. THe Chinese were thinking of purchasing it but discovered that the APS system doesn't work as advertised and relies on the crew visually seeing an incoming ATGM travelling at the speed of sound and then activating the APS.
