I have many sources of info but, I didn't want anyone to think I pulled the
T-90MS story (Post above.) about Kuwait's interest in the tank "outta of my butt" so just released earlier yesterday (Wed.) from one of my main stream sources...

We entered this tank to the Russian OOB a few years back, as the
T-90AM Russian version of the MS. Last two refs. added if any "
tweaking" is required before this tank actually sees the "
light of day" most likely for India first as they have already signed a contract for if I remember correctly was for
248/9 T-90MS units. But I believe it's still good though honestly it's been about 2 or 3 years since I've looked at it.
I just checked the OOB and I see it's
UNIT 059 listed as the
MS version which would be incorrect. Also unsupported reports claim Russia is operating a "
few" unspecified number of
T-90AM tanks (Big difference here is it uses a
20mm secondary weapon.) and the intention is to start building them in
2020. This is
very sketchy at this point.
It's good to have sources!
And I'll never reveal all of them-sorry-OK not really!?!

Pat
