By the way, the battle tank of the Armed Forces of Ukraine - T-64BM2 is a modernization of the Soviet T-64 tank. The main upgrade of the vehicle was the 6TD-1 tank engine with a capacity of 1000 horsepower. With the new engine, the specific power of the car increased to 22.2 horsepower per ton - instead of 18.9 in the old tank with an engine of 850 horsepower.
