Modernization of T-72 tanks “White Eagle”. One of the best in the world?
As we have already mentioned, one of the main «studs» held in Zhukovsky salon ground weapons «Engineering Technologies — 2012″ in armored vehicles became painted in the color of snow and because peace had already earned the nickname "White eagle" upgraded T-72B.
The car was «marred» in preparation for the lounge, no explanatory panels next to it was not, those who prepared the tank to the demonstration, also kept silent.
But on the first photo displayed on the network has been seen that place the night sight on this tank took a modern device with thermal channel.
Because some military experts have suggested that this machine is modified in one of the Russian tank repair plants. Others were convinced that the tank came from Belarus. Specialists from countries friendly to us, so Macari, giving the ability to advertise obsolete «semdesyatdvoykam» features comparable with the most modern tanks.
As it turned out they were right and both. The car arrived at the exhibition in St. Petersburg, with the public company of the 61st «Armoured Repair Plant», which had previously been known more that did complete renovation T-80.
As said, the «Bulletin of Mordovia» editor in chief of the magazine «Arsenal Fatherland» Victor Murakhovski given technical project activities.
«They are experts at doing BTRZ 61, workers of» Oboronservis » and JSC «Spetsremont» — said Viktor Murakhovski.
Sights set on the tank — Belarusian made by JSC «Peleng». Namely, for the first time on the Russian T-72 mounted one of the best in the world commander’s panoramic sight «Hawkeye» with a thermal imaging camera of the third generation.
The peculiarity of this sight is that its design allows you to have sight on the side, rear, roof, though in fact what point tower.
This distinguishes it profitably, for example, from the Ukrainian panoramic sight PNA-6. Because of the optical channel, it is intended for installation in front of the tank commander’s hatches and makes significant challenges during the implementation of antiaircraft machine gun on the ground targets that have not once mentioned.
In addition, the «Hawkeye» simply mounted on light armored vehicles, for example, BMP-2 and BMP-3. In the case of PNA-6 is unrealistic, it just will not fit on the tower of the same BMP.
Outdoor seating sight greatly simplifies the repair function also frees the internal volume of the crew compartment of the vehicle.
The modernized tank used automatic target tracking (ASC) Russian production, which still is not present on foreign versions of modernization of T-72 (strictly speaking, such a function exists only on the most recent Western tanks issue which just started).
The presence of 2-tracking channels much easier to work as a commander and gunner. If the machine has captured target, he will accompany her, regardless of the intensity of its maneuvering.
In the department of administration used elements of information management system chassis information with which a driver gets on the special board. Maneuvering in reverse greatly simplified using the rear view camera.
Tank «shod» in new caterpillar tracks with The rubber boots. This is a big plus in daily operation, namely in regions with developed transportation network.
This modification of the tank is proposed, first, export, although problems adjusting to the fire control system supplied earlier to the troops T-72BA not. All the same again about money and the desire of the Ministry of Defence.

Commentary on the above post
The has a panoramic sight with Catherine XP Thermal Imager (3rd generation) for commander position and a gunner sight with 2nd generation thermal imager from Russia, and auto-tracking system from Russia in its fire control system.
Even Russians have no tank is service with Catherine XP Thermal Imager (3rd generation) for commander position in service (Although T-90MS and Armata do have 3rd generation thermal imager).
Even Chinese and India have no tank with Catherine XP Thermal Imager (3rd generation) for commander position in service.
None of the Latin American nations have no tank with Catherine XP Thermal Imager (3rd generation) for commander position in service. Even Chileans' Leopard2A4's fire control system cannot be compared with the one on .
Nicaraguans must have a very good taste, or they are just cheated by Russians because a panoramic sight with Catherine XP Thermal Imager (3rd generation) is definitely an overkill in Central America. A panoramic sight with Catherine FC Thermal Imager (2nd generation) like the one on Indians' T-90S is more than enough
Anyway, congratulations to Russians and Nicaraguans. When I saw T-72B1 I thought Russians must be going mad (again), why they put such an advanced sighting system and fire control system on a T-72B, which made the sighting systems and fire control systems on T-72B2 and T-72B3 look ancient, and who would buy such an advanced tank.

Sure upgraded T-72 who is no build since long time now only T-90 and few new T-14 are in production.
