The newest Russian Armata T-14 main battle tank will enter mass production later than expected, multiple sources have told Defence Blog.
The industry sources said that the delivery of new Armata tanks in serial configuration could be delayed until 2024 due to technological hurdles.
“During the tests, the tank revealed a number of shortcomings associated with the fire control system, which would require significant time to fine-tune the electronic components and subsequent tests,” said the source.
This past summer, Russia’s Industry and Trade Minister, Denis Manturov said that mass production of the T-14 Armata tank will begin in 2022.
