T-80BMV

This is a 1/64 (scalable to other scales: 89% for 1/72, 84% for 1/76, 64% for 1/100, 74% for Ho Scale, 114% for 1/56, 133% for 1/48) scale model of the T-80BVM is an upgraded version of the T-80BV main battle tank. It was first publicly revealed in 2017. Currently Russia operates a total of 4 500 T-80 main battle tanks of all variants. Due to high operational costs these tanks are being kept in reserve. Currently the main operational tanks of the Russian Army are the T-90 and overhauled or upgraded versions of the T-72. The main reason is that these tanks with conventional diesel engines are less expensive to operate and to maintain than the T-80s. Earlier it was planned that all Russian T-80 series tanks will be retired by 2015. However in 2017 Russian MoD signed a contract to refurbish and upgrade a total of 62 T-80BV tanks to the T-80BVM standard in order to keep them in operational service.
