The experimental model of the tank will be presented in 2015, its serial production will start a year or two later. This development will be the first step towards the creation of weapons "unmanned", called "combat robots" that spoke the authors of science fiction works of the last century.
The military expert Igor Korotchenko explains what it is: "It will be a tank equipped with a reinforced capsule that will ensure the preservation of the lives of the crew in conditions of combat operations real. Ammunition will be screened out of the capsule. At no tower and no one can be loaded cannon and fire automatically without man's participation. pointing the - operator will take care only to indicate the target and choose the type of projectile, designed to achieve the target. Therefore, it is a platform shielded completely unified and automated which will play a wide circle of missions in combat operations and is an industry first national armored. " The expert Aleksandr Gurov believes that the wars of the future man's role is reduced to the mission of the organization. Therefore, similar developments are indispensable. "In the case of an intervention from outer space or on the part of some foreign country, the defense should include both soldiers and robots, unmanned planes and tanks and other kinds of weapons.'s An imposition of the XXI century. Russia is a power that other states can not ignore and that has a wonderful community of scientists. The country should develop similar weapons. " The existence of heavy Armata platform was unveiled last summer. It is being developed since 2009 and should become the basis of a whole range of modern heavy tanks, the tanks and infantry special vehicles designed to tank brigades and mechanized infantry. The development project is undertaken by Uralvagonzavod's largest industrial complex - Russia's military. Incidentally, today this same company also is developing two more combat platforms - and the Kurganets Bumerang. The Army will receive next year war material built on this basis. The General Staff Gen. approved the program of creating a series of tanks, which could change the whole structure of armored forces. Developing tank designs - robots got to be done even in Soviet times, but after the collapse of the country all these projects have been frozen. Now scientists and engineers try to revive this promising idea, just as many other projects for the reform of the Armed Forces. Russian President Dmitri Medvedev recently stated in college Defence Ministry that the reform of the Armed Forces had already yielded serious results - the combat capability of the troops, as well as the degree of equipment with modern war materials increased. "In general, thanks to the reforms we have made new military, much better able to withstand the threats of our time and respond to potential threats that may arise." The state has earmarked 20 trillion rubles, ie about 660 billion dollars for the rearmament of the Armed Forces until the year 2020, which will lead to qualitative changes in the equipment of the Armed Forces with new types of armaments. Armata platform ------------------------------------------------- The efficiency of the vehicle will compensate the mega investment? Will be this the tank of the future? We'll know in 2015...

If it were manned remotely, design it for that. The damn thing is designed with a 3 man crew in mind, and has room for 3 squishies in it. A future remote tank would be smaller while keeping the same performance because it didn't have to keep 3 people, air filters, tea warmers, and chairs in there.
TLDR: Sounds like horseshit or bad designing. -------------------- |

TLDR: Sounds like horseshit or bad designing. I believe there will be no in the next 50 years a tank that is 100% automated, unable to support a crew, because an exclusively standalone automated version is not interessente to any country since everyone wants to be allowed to control the vehicle with a crew on board; this involves reducing costs, ability to operate the vehicle after any technical problems related to complex software and the ability to export the vehicle to countries that do not have sufucientes technical resources to operate a vehicle 100% automated; therefore the possibility of remote control of the vehicle is something additional and complementary that even should not be a standard configuration of the Armata. -------------------- You already imagined how would be SAP in the ROTR's universe?
