Modernized T-72 and Т-64 tanks of the Ukrainian military received new digital panels.
In the Czech Republic, Excalibur Army Company, during the modernization of T-72 tanks, installed an updated instrument panel for the driver.
Footage of this panel was demonstrated by the Ukrainian T-72EA tank driver.
Instead of several analogue instruments, a single digital panel is now installed, the interface of which is translated into Ukrainian.
The T-72EA (Excalibur Army) tanks are an upgrade of the T-72M1 tank, which includes a reactive armor installation, a new modern radio, a digital dashboard, a thermal sight with a laser rangefinder, and an increase in engine power up to 840 hp.
In early November, it became known that the United States and the Netherlands would finance the transfer of Т-72 tanks to Ukraine, which had been restored to the Czech Republic.
The Czech enterprise for Ukraine is now restoring about 90 tanks. The United States will pay for the restoration of 45 units, and the Dutch government will pay for a further restoration of 45 tanks, totaling approximately $90 million.
They have to be bought literally around the world, many were stored in the open, and they were taken off the parts for sale. Work on the modernization of one tank takes from several weeks to several months, primarily due to the poor condition of the machines themselves. The Czech enterprise has classified a complete list of equipment used for modernized machines.
It also became known that Т-64BV mod.2022 tanks received a digital dashboard of the driver.
Footage of this digital panel was first released on social media in the NMFTE community.
In 2022, the state-owned Kharkiv Armored Plant tested the latest modernization of the Т-64BV tank, the model of 2022.
The company’s specialists equipped the tank with new third-generation surveillance and aiming devices. The vehicle was equipped with standoff armor and rubber shields on the turret.
