Object 312 No.3 (1978) with 1K11. To supply the 1K11 laser system with enough power and charge the large capacitor bank, it was decided to use a GTD-1000T, which was in parallel, entering service with the Object 219 Sp. 2. #tanks

The M109A1B codenamed by the Soviets as "Product 39" to hide the acquisition of this trophy vehicle. It was captured from the Iranian forces by Iraqi forces. The M109A1B was trialled from 1984 up until 1985.

Prototype BMP-1 with a gas turbine engine. Sadly, unknown which GTD variant this is. Some sources state it to be a GTD-3, while others claim it to be a GTD-700. Would have been interesting to see a BMP-1 with a 50hp/t power to weight ratio. #Tanks

crib-blog.blogspot.com/2026/04/bmp-1-… BMP-1 with prototype side skirts. The goal was to reduce radar detection by installing louvre-style panels to attenuate and scatter waves. Additionally, such panels could also be used to lower thermal radiation on vehicles. #Tanks

Imagine you work for the Soviet military industrial complex in Leningrad, 1978. The newest Vestnik lands on your table, and you get hit with the 'A-7701' VNIITransmash GTD cyclone array promotional material.

After a brief 86-day break, I present a short article on the use of specialised testing equipment used by the Russian military to test armoured fighting vehicles and how recoil shock impulses affect crew ergonomics and safety. crib-blog.blogspot.com/2025/11/testin…
