There were no two but 3 tiers of T-72. - Soviet Union - Warsaw Pact - other export customers Roughly the same time, the Soviet Union got the first T-72BW with Koniktakt-1 and T-80U with Kontakt-5. The Warsaw Pact countries got T-72M1 that was equivalent to earlier Soviet T-72A. The export "monkey variant" was the inferior export variant (T-72M). Poland and Czechoslovakia produced both proper and monkey T-72M1s.
@JimWarford18 ай бұрын
You're correct...if you include the T-72M (laser rangefinder/no turret composite), you could say there were three tiers. One of the points of this video was to highlight the fact that there were two variants of the T-72M1; one with CERMET turret composite armor and one with sand composite armor. Iraq for example, had all three T-72 variants: T-72 Ural, T-72M, and T-72M1...

Excellent analysis and excellent presentation a truly outstanding armor and tank expert. But he would mention a few details that may have been missed. The T-72 m and M1 were never produced in Russia/USSR, they are tanks intended for export and were produced exclusively in the former Warsaw Pact countries, Poland and the former Czechoslovakia, later in the Czech Republic. The T-72 M/M1 has nowhere near armor protection, because it does not have a fire control system, and optoelectronics at the level of the T-72A, which is for the USSR army, that is, the first modernization of this tank from 1977. The T-72 "Ural" is the original T-72 from 1972/73. The T-72 tanks that were produced for the USSR army were not exported outside the USSR, at the time they were current, only a few years ago a lot of modernization of the T-72AV from 1979 was sold to Syria... The tanks were exported from Warsaw Pact countries. and Czechoslovakia. And these are the T-72M variant and the slightly improved T-72M1. Even the T-72M1 had worse armor protection than the T-72A, the first modernization of this tank for the Soviet Army, in 1977. Versions produced without permission in Iraq, for example... are even worse than the export version of the T-72M /M1, especially when armor protection and optoelectronics are questionable. So you probably tested the T-72M and T-72M1 which had close armor protection to the Soviet version of the T-72A, so you saw the obvious difference in armor protection between the M and M1 versions. Otherwise, T-72M/M1 tanks were used only for export. and in the countries of the Warsaw Pact ... Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria ... In translation, these are deeply degraded versions of T-72 tanks. Also, to make matters worse, the ammunition that was sold to, say, Iraq for these tanks is old Soviet, from the beginning of the 70s of the last century, with the ability to penetrate about 300 mm of homogeneous steel. So they had degraded tanks and outdated ammunition. As for the disadvantages, you are absolutely right about the T-72 tanks, because the storage of additional ammunition, loading and projectiles inside the turret is unprotected. And that's why the entire turret of the tank was detonated and the crew was lost. But this happens in more than 95% of cases if additional spare ammunition is stored in the tank, so if there is a penetration inside the turret, then there is an explosion and the loss of both the crew and the tank. However, this can be prevented by not carrying unprotected spare ammunition inside the tank, more specifically, rounds and projectiles. Although there is generally a misconception that the explosion occurs because of an automatic loader or a carousel with ammunition, which is not true! Thus, during the conflict, both Ukrainians and Russians generally stopped carrying additional spare ammunition in the tank. We saw that on the Ukrainian battlefield, but we also saw that the turret flew off Leopard 2 tanks in Syria and Ukraine?! modernized variants of T-72 tanks. They are somewhere above the level of the Leopard 2 A4, about the level of the Leopard 2 A5. The same applies to the T-80BVM ... and older versions of the T-90 tanks. While the new version of T-90M / Proriv 2 and 3 ... In the worst case, the level of Leopard 2 A6/A7 ... The Russian/Soviet T-72 tank in its first and basic versions from half a century ago, or the export of deeply degraded versions used in the Middle East... Not a serious threat to any Western 3rd generation tank. But the modernized variants of this tank, which are modernized from the second to the third generation of tanks. Such as the above-mentioned Russian modernizations T-72B1MS /B3/B3M, T-80BVM... But also the Polish versions of the modernization of the T-72 PT-91 tank, as well as the Czech modernization of the T-72M4 CZ and the Ukrainian modernization of the T-64 tanks and The T-80, as well as the Serbian modernization of the M-84AS1/AS2 tanks... In a real war conflict, they represent a serious threat to every third generation of Western tanks. Not to mention the new T-90M tanks. First of all, when taking into account the advantages and disadvantages of Western and Soviet/Russian as well as Chinese tanks on the T-72 tank platform. Which is very well fought in the real big and modern war after WW2, which is the war in Ukraine. Modernized Soviet / Russian tanks have an advantage in most segments. Logistics, mobility, speed, maneuverability, agility, endurance, passability, easy maintenance and cheap and fast, even in outdoor conditions, very easy and cheap and fast training of the crew, significantly greater range of the cannon up to 5 km, the possibility of using the tank as mobile artillery, a range of up to 10 km, usability in real war and on the modern battlefield...

Nato members were moving away from the 105mm tank rounds at that time and switching to the 120mm projectile. the UK had the 120mm rounds with it's chieftain tank, the Germans(leopard 2) and the french( amx 32/40 design series of export tanks)had it in hand to switch calibres from the late 70s early 80s too, the US was slow in making the move to 120mm. the counter to these t72 tanks were in the pipline and in some cases on the battlefield in the 80s already. good post sofi very informative on the state of manufacture of these tanks, thank you.

@@chickenfishhybrid44 simple answer is cost, to develop a tank gun and ammunition is expensive especially as there needs to be thousands of guns made for it's tank program. it's 105mm gun was a battle proven development of the british L7 ( from the Centurion) the m68. this had served well, was trusted by tank crews (to a point) it would need a lot of evidence to break that trust, the T72 types captured/ acquired showed that a new tank gun was needed and the US chose to replace it with the German 120mm smoothbore tank gun partly because the development had been done by the Germans who needed large numbers for it's leopard 2 program. Nato commonality was assured with this new gun as the Leopard 2 was going to be widely adopted by Nato member states.
@Ughmahedhurtz8 ай бұрын
@@stevechurch4728 Exactly. At the time (I was in 1990-1992) there was still a lot of skepticism about the smoothbore's accuracy, wear lifetime, and the lack of antipersonnel rounds like the beehive and a couple others. The larger diameter also reduced ammo stowage from about 55 rounds to 40, which crews disliked at least up until the first gulf war. The weight of the M1A1 Heavy also went up quite a bit, making route planning for tank movement important as there were bridges (at least in the Baumholder area) that would support the ~62T combat loaded of the M1 but not the ~70T of our M1A1H models. I will say, though, that if you got into a good spot where you could get it up to speed, that thing handled like a dream. Controls were very light at 70+ MPH.

I saw that tank at Knox in 2004. My reenacting unit was invited to Fort Knox for a scripted Memorial Day weekend event. Being an East Coast-based organization, only three or so of us made it. I had recently returned to Fort Campbell from Iraq, so it was a relatively short drive. We did the event, and Patton Museum staff let us go on a behind-the-ropes tour for us volunteering our time. Only two pieces of equipment were off-limits--the T-72 and a recently recovered StuG III. I have pictures on the 88mm, Kettenkrad, Panther, and other pieces. Perhaps best of all was the tour of the motor pools that some of the staff took a handful of us on the following morning!

Good background. As an M60A1 tanker of that time period, we did receive classified briefings about the capabilities of our M68 main guns against T-72 armor. I have to disagree with his assessment of the “design flaw” of Russian tanks. Before the Abrams, there were NO tanks of any nation that separated the crew from the ammo. Russian tanks at least placed the ammo low in the hull. In the M60 series the ammo was right next to us in the turret bustle. There are many reports from Desert Storm of T-72s struck by 120mm rounds that blew the engine out the back but did not ignite the ammo.
@JimWarford18 ай бұрын
The design flaw I mention in the video is not the separation of ammo from the crew, but more specifically, the separation of the semi-cumbustible main gun ammo from the crew. That's the problem...one that is characteristic of the T-72M1 and every other Soviet/Russian tank of this generation. Modern Western MBTs are designed around solving this problem...some more than others.
@coryhoggatt76914 ай бұрын
@@JimWarford1thank you for the thoughtful reply. I don’t understand what you mean by “semi combustible” ammunition, unless you’re referring to two piece ammunition (where the combustible element is just gunpowder in a cloth bag). I don’t know that the same powder contained in an aluminum shell would be any safer. Of course back then we didn’t foresee the advent of top attack munitions, which are much more likely to hit ammunition stored under the turret. Russia did start adding some armor over the ammo carousel but obviously not enough.

Makes me wonder if the export customers knew they were getting unfired sand instead of something that had been turned into solid silica sheeting via kiln? I know sand is quiet effective in stopping small arms round, hence sandbags, but I'm unsure if it'd have the same effect on sabots. It makes sense from a manufacturing standpoint as silica melts at around 3k F if I remember correctly, steel's what 2.5k F, so it'd make using the metallic bits of armor as a ready-made casting mold without some sort of refractory coating difficult. But it was most likely not in the marketing brochure lol
