The Obiekt 279, or Object 279, (Объект 279) was a Soviet experimental heavy tank developed at the end of 1959. This special purpose tank was intended to fight on cross country terrain, inaccessible to conventional tanks, acting as a heavy breakthrough tank. It was planned as a tank of the Supreme Command Reserve. [citation needed]
The "Rubin" anti-tank missiles were capable of penetrating 250 mm of armor at 60° at a range of 4 km. The Obiekt 775 used the same engine and transmission from T-64 tank. The Obiekt 775T (Объект 775Т) variant used two gas turbine engines instead of the diesel engine. The prototype tank wasn't adopted for a number of reasons.
Chain track drive sprocket (Leclerc battle tank, 2006) In the case of vehicles with caterpillar tracks the engine-driven toothed-wheel transmitting motion to the tracks is known as the drive sprocket and may be positioned at the front or back of the vehicle, or in some cases both. There may also be a third sprocket, elevated, driving the track.
Many World War II German military vehicles, initially (starting in the late 1930s) including all vehicles originally designed to be half-tracks and all later tank designs (after the Panzer IV), had slack-track systems, usually driven by a front-located drive sprocket, the track returning along the tops of a design of overlapping and sometimes ...

The Soviet Army noted problems with the tank, and full-scale production was delayed to make changes. The Soviet Army also opposed a plan to name the tank the T-84, as KMDB had originally envisioned, because it would draw attention to the fact that the Soviets were operating four tanks (T-64, T-72, T-80 and T-84) with more or less similar ...
By the end of 2021 up to 300 [10] units produced by overhauling and upgrading old T-80B tanks from storages. The idea was to make it compatible with T-90M tanks (same gun, ammunition, ATGM, ERA etc) in order to put less strain on supply lines. New "Relikt" ERA on the turret and hull (front and sides), increased protection against land mines.
