Iraq's T-72 was good enough to counter Chieftain, AMX-30, Pattons and Centurions of the neighboring countries....They aren't supposed to encounter next generation MBTs like Abrams and Challenger.

T-72M series are export models.....the T-72B series much better protected

The 105mm cant pent them

Jew reported it. Bounce the turret and frontal hull

Yes...guns derived from the popular British's L7 design...like the M68 can't penetrate most T-72 variants.

Need guns derived from Rheinmetall 120mm design...like M256 gun on Abrams

Sadly  the 150mm gun was cancelled 

If not we will be seeing 4th gen with 150mm gun

Iran reverse engineer those planes. Then attached their own armament 

Who going to protests them doing that? US? They already sanction them iranians

Russia? So far russia have been keeping their promise not to supply them advance system. If u watch north korea documentary, u will know that is north  korea selling it to them. North buy act as proxy for iran and export to them

We on other hand cant that..
Uhhh.. it not autoloader but rather the ejector that is risky. The autolaoder mechanism have been the same but now the ejector have been redesigned to be safer for the crew

T72 supplied to middle east are of inferior quality  because  of russian fear of it falling to murica hands. Reduce armor protection, inferior fire control system and some even without fire control system. Lack of era and some even have used gun barrels

But even with this there  are some cases whre abrams fail to penetrate those tanks head on. Most of Iraq t72 are destroyed by missiles rather than tank on tank battle.

Just fast it reach operation readyness once surface from the water.. some take a few minutes  until all the water  exit the engine compartment or ect

where did you get this information from? or are you just extrapolating data from iraqi T-72s and thinking that it applies to the T-90? as for the insurgent weapons, it doesn't mean much given the fact that even the Challenger 2 was penetrated by a RPG29.

Chechnya battle, russian mbts performed badly be it t72b or t80bv both with fully covered ERA tiles. The Chechen separatists didn't bother to waste time shooting at harderned parts instead just aim for tracks and engine bay. Just 1 direct hit to engine would punch throught ammo storage destroying the tank with its own stowed ammo.

Check war in afghanistan, the soviets lost heavily than americans. It showed american tanks superior.

failure in chechnya was not due to the tank design, but to the tactics employed by the russians. they sent tanks without any infantry support right into urban environments and got their arses handed back to them. any tank caught in this situation no matter the model will be utterly destroyed.

American, brits, israelis had been into such ambush, the abrams, challenger 2, merkava survived with damages. Only if there's hizbollah 500lb anti-tank mine that is strong enough to blow up any tank where few merkava mk3 were destroyed with turret blown off.

Russian t72 and t80 in chechnya is similar to iraq and in comparison, russian tank survival rate is much poorer.

Autoloader is good if there's isolation from crew like in leclerc & merkava, tank crew don't get to touch nor see the autoloader. Russia got into serious financial crisis that they cancelled the t95 project with proper autoloader separated from crew compartment and separate ammo storage.

T72/80/90 are nothing more than 70's era tech doctrine. The design fails big time under present day. Since t95 was scrapped and russians lost the t80 factory to ukraine after soviet union dissolved, they have only t72 left and give it modificaton then renamed it t90.

The Bradley's are slower than abrams that they were trailing behing while abrams spearhead enemy defenses. At least abram could destroy t72. At the other hand, t72's 125mm failed to punch through abram's armour, only capable of damaging tracks, turrets and engines at most.

The added armor is so thick making the leopard 2 looks like big box with cannon.

Can PT91 defeat this well protected boxy leo2? Leo2 has better engine, speed, mobility, visual, firepower, fire control system and armor. Pt91 would have to fire few rounds to destroy leo2.

The t95 is now replaced by the armata project which is a multiple weapons platform that will features unmanned turret, turret bustle ammo compartment, improved armor, active protection system and front engine. The design emphasizes more of the crew protection priority while still maintaining the medium weight tank class for mobility like their predecessor

please dun hate russian tank, every tank is built differently for different purpose, you can love one but dun hate the other..
same goes for shitty tanks like arjun and sheridan
