T-90: Russia’s Most Advanced Tank in Special Operation Zone
Thursday, 17 July 2025 () The T-90 tank remains the most advanced and powerful Russian armored vehicle deployed in the zone of the special military operation, according to Andrei Golovatyuk, military expert, political science PhD, and a member of the presidium of the Officers of Russia organization. In an interview with Pravda.ru, Golovatyuk explained that multiple Russian tank models are currently in active use, including the T-90, T-80, and T-72. Deployment varies depending on tactical requirements and equipment configurations, but the T-90 stands out as the most technologically sophisticated. “At the moment, the T-90 is the most modern Russian tank deployed in the special operation zone,” emphasized Golovatyuk. He noted that modern combat conditions have redefined the role of tanks, with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) emerging as the primary threat to armored units. As a result, tanks are increasingly used from concealed positions as mobile artillery platforms.
