The tank was fitted with cutting-edge systems and structural solutions, losing many of the traditional shortcomings of Soviet tanks. Originally the design was intended to be only a temporary solution before the development of new combat platforms. Obiekt 187 was a parallel project to Obiekt 188, the T-90 tank.
The tank was based on the T-80's chassis, using a new turret, and was armed with an LP-83 152.4 mm smoothbore gun. A variant of the tank utilizing a rifled 152mm armament was never completed. Like most Soviet tanks, the gun offered poor depression, and the LP-83 offered a slower reload despite the presence of an autoloader .
