Russia’s T-14 Armata Tank vs Leopard Tank

In 2015, the Russian armed forces ‘revealed’ the T-14 Armata, a highly secretive next-generation main battle tank based on the Armata Universal Combat Platform. The universal Armata design was originally intended to serve as a starting point for the next-generation of Russian heavy Infantry Fighting Vehicles (IFVs) and Armored Personnel Carriers (AFVs). While Russia once promised to manufacture the T-14 in mass quantities by 2020, only a few have come off the assembly line. This trend looks set to continue as Western sanctions prevent Russia from sourcing the specialized parts and silicon chips it needs for T-14 production. And trust us, Putin really does need those tanks. Desperately. The Russian army is currently trying to fight off the latest and greatest Western tanks and IFVs, including American-made M-1 Abrams, German-made Leopard IIs, and British-made Challengers, and they are FAILING at trying to get any real headway in these battles. Would things be different if Russia had more T-14 Armatas at its disposal? In an epic battle between the T-14 Armata and, say, the German Leopard II - who would win?
