T-14 uses the 2A82-1M 125 mm gun the ammo is different than previous 125mm rounds and higher pressure

T-90M uses the 2A46M 125mm cannon

The T72B3M is armed with a 2A46M5 125mm

They are not the same gun......... I believe the ammo for the 2A46M and 2A46M5 is interchangeable but not the ammo for the 2A82-1M and in the game the "gun" is the ammo

EDIT
So the T-72B3M should be using W128 ( now changed) and as well the T-80BVM gets W128 ( now changed)

From Wiki for this last bit
  • 2A46M-5: Used on T-90M, T-80BVM, and T72B3 Obr2017.
  • 2A82-1M: Used on T-14 Armata
