Something similar began to appear more widely on tanks in the late 1990s. [1] The 2A66 was based on the 2A46M as a transitional version between the 2A26 gun and the new generation 2A82 smoothbore gun. [3] The 125 mm 2A82 was tested earlier (late 1970s) on the experimental tank Obiekt 785. Obiekt 785 was also tested with a 130 mm rifled gun.
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]
