did you see the twin small calibre cannon ? , the machine gun in both side of the tank is from bmp design , the tank is heavily protected with era and side armor . a hybrid from t-72 and bmp cassis maybe

I didn't see ERA bricks, but they did add armor plating. This is quite an interesting design, note the vehicle has crew of 5, instead of usual 3 for Russian MBTs? I wonder if it has room in the back for more infantry, or ATGM storage.
Vehicle-based ATGMs can be much larger and heavier than man-portable versions, and with longer range than tank rounds for long-distance kills. Having a MBT chasis would also make the vehicle more survivable against RPGs.
The tank is based on I think old T-72 chassises. It is basically a smart tank, using ATGMs instead of a cannon to ensure longer and more accurate kills. I think those cannons are 30mm, same use and self of those found on BMPs. The tank is called the terminator and might have entered limited service. Can't figure why there is a crew of 5 though.
