~Report from Plant 656, Uralvagonzavod, Nizhny Tagil~

3 new MBT designs are being prototyped. We have designated them the T-99 Berehynia, T-99A Berehynia and the T-100 Daria.


 * The first design, the T-99 is a prototype test vehicle. Currently armed with a 152mm 2A1M railgun. The armor is mostly spaced and ERA. Production of this vehicle will be limited for testing. Secondary weaponry is a 12.7cm machine gun and 152mm AT missiles.


 * The second design, designated the T-99A is an upgrade and step-up from the T-99. With extra fuel canisters, maneuverability and equipment. Armor is around 450-500mm of multiple layers of spaced armor and ERA packages. It is armed with the same gun as the previous vehicle except this one is an autoloader. Carrying 6 shells in the drum with a 25 second reload time.

Penetration is measured at 450-500mm. Secondary weaponry are a 12.7cm machine gun and multiple 152mm AT missiles. The T-99A has a 1,750hp engine which can propel the 55 ton machine up to a speed of 80kph.


 * The third design, the T-100 Daria has proved very sucsesful during trials and has been placed into immediate production. Armor is tested as 470-550mm thick, which is mostly made up of heavily spaced armor and many ERA packages. Armed with a 122mm D-50 autoloading railgun, with a 6 shot drum magazine. Penetration values are measured at 390-420mm. The 122mm gun is slated to be replaced by a 152mm railgun on a later variant.

Secondary weaponry is made up of a retractable 12.7cm machine gun which is remotely operated from inside the turret, and multiple 152mm AT missiles. Smoke launchers are also present on the vehicle, which are retractable.

Mobility is provided by a 1,900hp engine which can push the nearly 64 ton machine to a speed of 85kph.

These tanks have high hopes. We will continue to test them, and place them into production as soon as possible.
