In the United States, the Abrams tanks are not the best in the world, the T-90 is almost equal to them
"I think the Abrams are still among the best in their class in terms of combat systems, so there's parity," Murray continued. At the same time, he noted, Israel, Britain and Russia have similar machines. "I think the T-90 may be very close (to the Abrams), people talk about the Armata tank, but it, as far as I understand, has not yet been commissioned," the Pentagon spokesman said.
He also warned that now the technological development of the Abrams tank has "reached its limit". "So it's time for us to start thinking about a new generation tank, I'm worried that now, in the foreseeable future, I do not see any breakthrough technologies that would allow us to get a lighter tank." I thought I had to build a new 75-ton tank Would be a mistake, as long as the requirements for its protection remain the same, "Murray concluded.
