The T-14 is technically sophisticated and the first with a fully automated turret entirely devoid of crew as one of many new design features. After years of making do with updating Soviet era tanks, the T-14 "Armata" is the first genuinely new post-Soviet Russian design.

The perfect companion if you are building "Takom" or "Zvezda" kits.
