DESCRIPTION
ZAR-125M is a new generation main battle tank. It was created on the own initiative of the AR technologies company for the army of the Russian Federation. Development began in 2022 and was completed in January 2024. Production is planned for 2025.

WEAPONS
The tank is armed with a 152mm smoothbore gun and a remote-controlled Kord machine gun.
GUN
The gun is a modernization of the Soviet 152mm smoothbore gun 2a83. Initial speed APFSDS-T 1980 m/sec.

The designers concluded that it would be difficult to load 152mm shells manually, and that the conventional Soviet automatic loader was too dangerous if it hit a tank. Therefore, our company has developed a new automatic loader located entirely in the turret.

KORD
The tank is also equipped with a remote-controlled Kord machine gun; you can read an article about it on Wikipedia.

MOTOR
The tank is equipped with a modernized gas turbine engine GTD-1500. Maximum power 1250 hp, maximum highway speed 81 km/h.
