Isn't Armata the first tank with this trait?

Big remote weapon station not the same thing, can see advantages to this and fits Russian low profile thinking though it’s now quite a big body from the side compared to older designs.
I would like to know if smaller lighter turret means they get far faster turret traverse as their is less mass to move.
Getting info on them is very hard certainly it’s a modern setup and has a defensive system and external video coverage. Since Thales I think it was shared the technology Russia has certainly caught up the West in the acquisition, targeting and the hunter killer areas though I still think they are behind.

Yes where is ginger tanker be nice to get a nod yes ot no on what the Merk is really capable of.

Armata hard kill system and Iron Fist (not trophy) are supposed to be effective against AP rounds as well due to bigger explosive knocking the projectile off axis so it losses it’s power or shatters on impact.
Bit sceptical and how many rounds can it carry, also reload time trophy is blindingly quick.
