Russia discusses tactical module creation and engagement concept
The Defense Ministry and Uralvagonzavod Corporation (UVZ) signed a contract for the delivery of the first batch of T-14 tanks on Armata platform and the first vehicles have to be supplied by the end of 2018. New modular units will fight instead of usual tank and motorized infantry platoons, companies and battalions. The Russian Defense Ministry is actively discussing the concept of their creation and engagement. UVZ Deputy CEO Vyacheslav Khalitov told the Izvestia daily about the modular companies and platoons and their armaments.
