... HAHAHA Ukrain??? they have nothing! ... when we took over them they didnt want to be communists so we took all the food out of there so they started eating eachother.... LOL!!! i really dont think that Ukrain has anything like the Black Eagle... or anything else that Russia has

chinawhite can u give me some links? i cant see the pics

Nice to see it has many of the nice electronics systems of more modern MBT's, including the obvious gun auto stabilization. Still has the ballistic shaped forward turret like the old Soviet tanks, which is certainly useful, and surprisingly absent on Western tanks, most notably the leopard.

Nice pics chinawhite, hadnt seen those before ,especially that clear and close with no camo nets!

Looks a lot more well finished and substantial that other russian tanks but still carries those lines that make it instantly recognisable as russian, stunning!
I wonder what active protection it will carry? Laser warning a must and so I presume it will carry a Shtora type system.
I read somewhere that it would carry Dronzd instead of Arena yet there appears to be neither on the photo....., shame!

hmmmm.... does diesel burn easily??? cuz the black eagle has a turbo diesel engine...
i thouhgt that they stopped making tanks (did they ever?) that had fuel that burns easily cuz if it gets on fire the whole thing goes boom.... or something

yeah, the picture you had was made by computer, so it doens't proove that the tank is already in use...

i never said that it was in use its not battle proven.... take a look at chinawhites pictures they are reall did u just read my first post and replay to it???
