Armory is a project of the news agency BelTA and the Defense Ministry’s TV company VoyenTV. It is dedicated to weapons, military and special hardware of the Belarusian army. The hardware that went into service in the Soviet times, the hardware Belarus acquired after it became independent, and promising samples that have yet to earn the trust of uniformed personnel. We will talk about weapons and will show them in action!
The T-72B tank is the main combat unit of the Belarusian army. According to the most conservative estimates, over 1,000 T-72B tanks are still in service. Some of them stomp all over military training areas day and night while some have been mothballed but stand ready for action.
