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 .
The Obiekt 490 "Poplar", or Object 490, was an experimental Soviet tank developed in the early 1980s. [1] Two versions of the vehicle existed under the same project name, however the designs were radically different, with the second being one of the most unusual designs in the history of tank development.

The PL-01 was a Polish light tank concept created by OBRUM with support from BAE Systems, based on the Swedish CV90120-T light tank. [1] [2] The concept vehicle was first unveiled at the International Defence Industry Exhibition in Kielce on 2 September 2013, [3] but the project was scrapped in 2015.
The Type 87 Chi-I medium tank a/k/a Experimental tank No.1 (試製1 号戦車) [4] [5] [6] was the first indigenously designed tank produced by Japan for the Imperial Japanese Army. Development of this medium tank began in June 1925 and was completed by February 1927. During the field trials, the tank proved to be too heavy and under-powered.
