It is known, the T-90M 'Proryv' Tank was developed by the Ural Design Bureau of Transport Machine-Building (part of Uralvagonzavod). As the developer highlighted, 'Proryv' is the most advanced armored vehicle in the T-90 tank family.

The tank is considered the most suitable for operations on today's battlefield thanks to thorough protection, modern guided missiles, highly automated fire control systems and enhanced defense capabilities technology.

According to Uralvagonzavod data, the T-90M has experienced multi-layered modernization and can be properly referred to as a new combat vehicle. It has received a new dome specifically, different from serially produced combat modules. As well as 1,130 more powered phones

'Proryv' is equipped with 125mm tank cannons that can fire new, powerful ammunition and missiles capable of destroying enemy tanks at a distance of up to 5 km.

Fighting a new multichannel allows the tank to use its weapons at any time, day or night. In addition, the option to exchange data with other combat vehicles in real time has become one of the main advantages of the upgraded tank.

For armored protection, the T-90M Tank has a similar anti-slip layer to that mounted on the main combat tank T-14 'Armata'.
