Русия: Танковете T-15 APCs готови за парада по случай деня на победата

Brand new Armata T-15 (Object 149) heavy infantry combat vehicles participated in a preview of next month's Victory Day (V-Day) parade celebrations in Moscow on Tuesday, as the state of the art vehicles prepare to roll out over Red Square on May 9. The Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation released footage of the new models yet little remains known about the specifications of the armoured personnel carriers (APCs), with officials covering the turrets to retain secrecy around the design. The T-15s are rumoured to have 30mm (1.2in) automatic cannons near the rear of the vehicle, an automatic grenade launcher, a machine gun, and antitank guided missile system. Moscow's May 9 Victory parade is set include a selection of Russia's newest military hardware, including ten T-14s battle tanks, ten T-15 (Object 149) heavy APCs, eight Coalition-SV 152mm (6in) self-propelled howitzers, groups of Kurganets-25 light tracked armoured vehicles and Boomerang light-wheeled armoured vehicles, among other military equipment.
