The T-14 Armata (industrial designation "Object 148") is a new Russian main battle tank based on the Armata Universal Combat Platform. It was first seen in public (initially with its turret and cannon shrouded) during rehearsals for the 2015 Moscow Victory Day Parade. The Russian army plans to acquire 2,300 T-14s in the period 2015-2020.

Featuring a number of innovative characteristics, the T-14 represents a new generation of Russian main battle tanks. The most significant new feature is the use of an unmanned turret, with the crew of three seated in an armored capsule in the front of the hull.

The development of the tank took five years and was initiated after the earlier, incrementally innovative T-95 (object 195) project was cancelled, after protracted development, with authorities citing excessive weight, complexity, and cost.

Historical Account: "Guns 'n Roses" - The main armament of the T-14 is the 2A82-1M 125 mm (4.92 in) smoothbore cannon, a replacement for the 2A46 of previous Russian and Soviet tanks. Other features include an absence of a fume extractor (due to the unmanned turret), a firing rate of 10-12 rounds per minute, and a maximum effective-penetration range of 8 km. The detection range of the tank's optical sensors is more than 5 km for tank-sized targets at day (this is the official government data), and at least 3.5 km at night through the thermal imaging channel. The gunner sight's optical channel is equipped with 4x and 12x optical zoom. The laser rangefinder has a theoretical maximum range of 7.5 km. These systems are duplicated; in addition there is a weaker third system which can fire on the move. The crew uses a high-definition camera with a 360 degrees field.

The Vacuum-1 sabot round, currently being developed for the 2A82-1M gun, has a penetrator which is 900 mm long, and is capable of penetrating 1,000 mm of RHA equivalent at a distance of 2,000 meters. The new controlled-detonation Telnik HE-Frag shell is also available. The gun is also capable of firing guided missiles, a feature first implemented on 1960s Soviet tanks, with a new 3UBK21 Sprinter ATGM developed specifically for it. These missiles can be used as a means of air defense systems.

The secondary armament consists of a 12.7 mm Kord (GRAU index 6P49) machine gun with 300 rounds (not observed during the 2015 parade) and a 7.62 mm PKTM (6P7К) machine gun with 1,000 rounds. All guns are remotely controlled. In addition, another 1,000 rounds can be stored separately. A 12.7 mm machine gun is installed above the turret roof-mounted commander's sight, which avoids visual obstructions, while the turret front has a peculiar slit that is speculated to be intended for the coaxial 7.62 mm machinegun.

In the future, the T-14 may use the 2A83 152 mm gun instead of its current 2A82 125 mm gun. This gun, created around 2000 for the T-95 prototype, has a high-speed APFSDS shell with a 1,980 m/s muzzle velocity, only dropping to 1,900 m/s at 2 km. However, Russian engineers have thus far kept the 125 mm-size gun, assessing that improvements in ammunition could be enough to increase effectiveness, while concluding that a larger bore weapon would offer few practical advantages.

The T-14 can use anti-aircraft missiles. A 30 mm anti-aircraft gun may be installed instead of the 12.7 machine gun.
