The T-90 Tank
The T-90 is a main battle tank originally developed by Russia.
Known for its robust armor, powerful 125mm smoothbore gun, and advanced fire-control systems, the T-90 has been the backbone of India’s armored capabilities since its induction in the late 1990s.
Beyond India, variants of the T-90 are in service in countries such as Russia, Algeria, and Azerbaijan, and it has seen combat in several conflicts, demonstrating resilience in varied terrains and operational conditions.
