Oplot is a pretty good tank but calling it WORLDS BEST is just hilarious
There's a big mouthful of tongue-n-cheek in that title =P
It's only problem is the lack of improvements on the firepower departmnet, but that thing literally has better armor than western MBTs
Abrams ❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 T-90M ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
protection wise it may actually be one of the best if not the best in the world (all round), cuz of the duplet era
Abrams eats 5 Oplot for breakfast.
Few of them made, with zero spare parts... A great post soviet design that hit the funding wall HARD.
Thailand ordered 49 of them and while they did fulfill the order the tank arrived in such a horrendus condition that they have to order VT-4s to plug the gap. I'm pretty sure Thailand has more of these than Ukraine itself.

@@TrynaLift-zv5sttheir not just look at the casualties count for both sides or how much territory Ukraine has liberated.
@@TrynaLift-zv5st Ukraine has regained substantial amounts of territory this year, while russia has failed miserably in every single counteroffensive they tried to mount. They've lost hundreds of officers and have resorted to conscripting prisoners into front line penal battalions with little or no training, and we can see from satellite imagery that they're pulling large numbers of T54s and T55s out of storage facilities. The only metric you could possibly be using to justify "winning" is that russia is still hanging onto the halves of 4 provinces by their fingernails. At the start of the war, russia claimed it would take all of Ukraine including Kyiv, then it claimed it would take 4 eastern provinces, now it's looking like they can only manage to take halves of them. russia keeps moving the goalpost of what they consider "victory" in light of their frequent and seemingly endless failures. At this point, we wouldn't be surprised if Ukraine manages to liberate Crimea next year. So the real quesiton is: are you mad that russia is losing? lol
"Could this tank save Ukraine?" I don't even have to watch a single second of the video to answer without slightest hesitation, a big fat NO.
Fun fact. The Malyshev Factory that domestically made some of the parts of the T-84 MBT went Bankrupt in 2021. They also never paid there workers and are still in hot water for violating Workers Rights and Corruption of its owners like the Legendary Kharkiv Tank Factory in late 90s early 2000s. There's also a lot of scandal with Ukraine and its tanks. With there BTR-4 having such bad rep for the quality metal used on them.
The war, doesn't let those news to be know... I haven't no ideia that happened.
Если точнее то БТР имел нормальную сталь, но ужасно сваренную. Ибо цех где раньше при СССР варили броню был закрыт уже, а люди уволены.. Вот сварные швы и трескались.
Corruption and greed. 😢
Its sad but this is Ukraine for you. I don't even know how they messed up maintaining the Legendary Kharkov Tank Factory which produces the T-80 MBT. Hence why they can only build a handful of T-84s unless its paid by a foreign power. They simply don't have the money due to the insane corruption inside.
Germany is willing to pay for those corrupt f…s. They are even in the talks to build a rheinmetal factory over there 🚮
To call the tank the best despite the fact that the country has never had enough capacity to produce it. This is the same as calling a tungsten core bullet the best bullet in the world.
Ikr
That's one of the problems with this video. It shows a lot of bias towards ukraine putting a lot and too much emphasis on the best and better then Russian and western MBTs. I think it is very good but it will be like the t-14 armada. It's there but it's not getting produced it's probably the best in the world but no good way to test it because there's only so few that exist. I would say something like a t-90M is better because they are at least being produced and modernized.
@@russian_boy1382 I'm very pro-Ukraine but even I'm pretty doubtful of the T-84 being the best..
@@thecringeinspector5636 that's normal. Just because your pro something doesn't mean you 100 percent agree with some actions and act all things are holy. Doubts are bound to be made
@@thecringeinspector5636 that's the point IF it existed, and IF it adhered to it's claims, it could have been the best tank in theory ( or at least one of the best). The point is that that tank was the EPITOME of the Soviet Tank development. There was always a current gen tank, and also some research and work done in advance for it's next gen improvement. So they had a current T80UD tank at the dissolution of the Soviet Union and they applied all of the available post Soviet advancements to it, and on top of that some better version western thermal sights etc. So that tank was literally the epitome of the Soviet Tank development, the best possible tank that the Soviet Union could have produce over it's 70 years of tank research and development, was released in that tank the T84 BM Oplot . So it's not like it came out of the blue or out of nothing. It had a solid Soviet basis behind it. And the tank in theory was good, however , as I've said in the beginning, if it had existed... It doesn't exist and Ukraine can't produce it without Russia (all of the previous production tanks were made together with Russian cooperation), and their official Russian parts replacement program for Oplot was supposed to be finished in 2025 ( I think that program was called "Bastion" if I'm not mistaken) and for obvious reasons we now know that it's not going to happen. So there's no point even discussing it. Ukraine has 4 of those tanks left. And they are basically only using 1 of them, and the rest 3 are there for spare parts. Cheers
It hasn't been destroyed, because it wasn't used for combat.

@@havokvladimirovichstalinov Here we again with the jack-in-the-box nonsense The relatively safer ammo storage configuration of the Abrams is an advantage, however, it only works because the Abrams doesn't carry any dedicated HE/HE-frag rounds; such rounds are far more powerful than the canister and multi-purpose rounds used by the Abrams, but they are also a lot more explosive... ..The detonation of such rounds (not mere propellant cook-off) routinely obliterates the entire tank, and this is why the Abrams doesn't use this round. HE/HE-frag rounds are particularly useful against fortifications, but they cannot be contained by blast doors or blow-out panels.
The most accurate part of this video is someone actually admitting to the corruption that Ukraine is suffering, from its government to its military production facilities. You never hear that from the western mainstream media outlets. I give props to Nick for bringing that up.
Yep. That's why the news sucks. You're not going to see 30min documentaries on pre-war Ukrainian corruption or even what led UP TO this war. You'll only hear whatever's politically expedient that they need people to hear. Ukraine needs our support, but it doesn't hurt to acknowledge that they had some serious issues prior to this war, some of which were contributing factors in russia starting the war in the first place. *ANY* post Soviet bloc nation that suffered economic stagnation while sitting on a stockpile of Soviet weapons had issues with corruption.

Didn't you say that in a contest this tank came in last place because of all the problems? Did they actually fix those problems? And how does the tank actually function after those fixes?
They didn’t, these tanks basically don’t exist, you cannot solve a problem of a tank that literally doesn’t exist
там була проблема з стібілізацією пушки, вона осцилювала без перестанку після траспортування і танк не попадав в цілі. На минулих змаганях був т-64 і в нього проблем не було ніяких, то ж то був випалковий брак.
I mean....sure it has that reactive armor.But i really don't think that it is able to do much against APFSDS and other kinetic penetrators
exactly this type of reactive armor and so many layers of it is doing exceptionally well against apfsds rounds. really, you can easily check some videos or topics about it. btw and overall armour of t80 is not bad, really
Не совсем верно, динамическая защита очень полезна, например наша реликт. Но у танка Оплот большая проблема с динамической защитой Нож. Ее концепцию разработали ещё в конце СССР. Но признали опасной и слишком тяжелой для танков.Там вместо метательной пластины (или 2-3 как В реликте) Стоят небольшие кумулятивные заряды, как бы разрезающие гранату противника (от сюда и название нож). Но вся проблема в том что, это требует огромного количества взрывчатки. Особенно во лбу машины, ведь там стоит 2 слоя. При срабатывании есть шанс проломить бортовую броню. А так же, при попадании срабатывает огромный кусок такой брони. Что делает машину уязвимой. @@MoTuBaToPMoTuBaToPoBu4
the era works just fine against apfsds but the main issue with it is that each peice of era only works once but i think its cheaper than adding better armor
"I mean....sure it has that reactive armor.But i really don't think that it is able to do much against APFSDS and other kinetic penetrators" Actually, the Russian latest version T-90 ERA has in the last 2 years proven to be VERY effective against pretty much everything, including kinetic penetrators.
I love your work and your team. Keep up the great work all, but do have the editors listen in as well, because ai move my ammo to for “safely”😜.
Not isolated ammo is a big issue. Really big. That's why it rather would be worse than M1 in terms of protection and, because of more versatile gun with rather better ammunition - fire power.
It still has to penetrate the armor to explode If it bleeds, then it can be killed.
@@aaroncruz9181 tanks are mostly harmed by mines and artillery, once immobilized it is more likely to hit the ammo rack. When ammo is fully isolated it is more likely to save the crew (or at least some of them), because trained crew is worthy much more than a tank itself.
Yeah abrams has isolated ammo but ammo is unprotected as result 300$ fpv drone can take it out
@@danylokosmyna7115 drones are successfully used mostly on immobilized machines. There is a lot of movies shoving the fpv drone chasing some running tank, but even if machine would be hit in the ammo rack, the explosion will be directed by explosion flaps and the crew will be safe (at least from that, when they escape the vehicle they can be shot by a sniper or so on. The main thing here is to limit the most dangerous situations for the crew. There are, of course, some scenarios that fpv drone would destroy any tank, the crew can, for example, keep hatches opened or there can be other factors. That's why comparing just machines is discussable, because what fights is the system, the battlefield is far away from the popular tank games and tank battles are in fact quite rare.

The only problem is not just corruption but the way the Ukrainian military industry was designed from the late Russian Empire and especially the early industrialization of the USSR. It was conceived to work as a part of the Soviet industry, once the Union disolved the supply chain broke and lots of the workers from other republics (mostly Russians) fleed back home. Imagine what would happen to the military industry in Texas if they became independent from the USA today, building an F-35 or anything similar would become impossible.
imagine Texas separates itself from US and Russia supports this starting from Lavrov giving cookies to separatists and then supplying long range weaponry, tanks and modern age fighters...oh wait
The ukraine we have today is a modern soviet creation, most of it - 1/2 is basically russians, communists promoted ukrainization but lets be honest if you can earn x2 more why would you stay.. It wasnt just that "russian experts left" and ukrainians are idiots who cant make anything, no .. Its that these people in these cities left to russia for jobs.. They went for better paying jobs and many took russian citizenship. Its why russia invaded they.. In their hubris though all the ukrainians would switch back to being russians just like that.. And to be honest if they invaded in 2014 and ukraines were suddrnly matched to russian wages 60% of ukrainians would have accepted it. Not saying russia invading is good... But its based on logic.. Russian land russia people ect should be easy right? Haha well didnt work out.. But "ukraine" is a communist creation. People in ukraine and western and southern russia have never been able to clearly tell eachother as seperate groups.. There is not a clear line "russian" and ukrainian.. Its more.. Somebody slowly feels more or less as you go further east or west. When russia did that shit in 2014 they lost many factories they had funded in the ukrain to make weapons, ukraine had even a russian ballistic missile factory gunded in denipro.. If it hadnt closed ukraine would have large numbers of rockets similar to iskandr.... And ukraine lost 1000snds of workers, scientists ect who just went to russia to live.
Recent update says Texas governors already running their own rules despite Biden's tantrum not to activate their national guard. If Texas border problems continue to 2025, imagining this scenario won't be an issue.
T84 is garbage, worse autoloader than the T90. No projectiles and etc. Watch the Redeffect video for further explanation.

My guy, this thing is not the next best tank...This thing is a just a really good post soviet design (on concept and paper because the thing needs more battle testing and teething!) but even on that notion. This thing would only be great if it implemented some stuff from the Yatagan (The Nato variant intended for turkey like you mentioned with your video) with the bustle, Western *good* quality Fire control system and communications suite. Combining the Oplot-M and the Yatagan with the 120mm gun would make this a really great "Good enough" cheaper tank in comparison to it's contemporaries, but not the best...
It looks awfully similar to a t80
What a suprise, when the entire t-84 bloodline is based on T-80UD
The t80 is basically a t64 but with a more powerful engine and incorporating suspension components of the T-72. Guess who designed the t64? Ukraine did The t84 is based on the t80ud Who designed the t80ud? Ukraine did. The other series of tanks made by Russia the t72 which the t90 is based on the T-72 was often used to equip infantry battalions due to its versatility and relatively simpler design, while the more advanced T-64 was typically assigned to tank battalions. so if it looks similar its because the t80 is like the grandad of the t84, and the t84 is the son of the t80UD
@timverrecchia1654 And ? And nothing the whole reason why Oplot looks like t80 is because it's further development of that platform.

That REVERSE driving speed feature is really coming in handy now
In fact there are many more tank designs that had already demontrated such an amazing survivability in this conflict. The key factor here is to stay as far away from the frontlines as possible, it's also important to keep production figures low. Oplots maintain 700 km distance and that seems far enough. But there are more impressive numbers out there, french Leclercs, for example, operate as far as 2000 km away, to make sure that russians will never have a chance against them. However some designs are truly in the league of their own - EE-T1 Osório, just two of them produced and 11.000 km distance wins brazilian top spot in your survival rating!

On trial and overall specifications. This tank is very promising project. But the main problems for this tank are corruption, commitment into serial production and it is basically expensive design and upgrade compare to far cheaper but still decent upgrade like T-64BM Bulat and T-64BV model 2017 which is much more aforadable when considering to increase modernized tank in their army first.
Actually, the plant in Kharkov is not Ukrainian, but Soviet, since it was built by the whole union. And the chief designers of the T-34, Koshkin and Morozov, are Russians by nationality.

Just like armata or any 4th gen tanks
@@YarIsGooberAt least armata is still in is prototype stage and saw little but some combat, and also unlike oplot the armata is an actual modern tank, not some modernized t80
@@5gurus-bimiseveriz so is using WW2 engine for you is modern?

The only thing that could save Ukraine is the negotiating table and a reality check.
Thank you for building this channel for the engineers behind every marvelous machinery, rather than politics and rivalry
Ukraine doesn't produce any tanks at all. All facilities are destroyed 2 years ago. The tank demonstrated in the video is USSR design.
"P r o p a g a n d a"
Not even 2 years ago. In the early 2000s, many of the Soviet factories left behind got destroyed by Corruption.
There is no way that new best tank can be produced in my homecountry
Praise your people, they actually put effort to make good equipment than push money down their pockets.
@@aaroncruz9181But they did though... Ukraine was left with the USSRs Industrial Burwark yet everything they did got to pass a crap ton of red tape and corruption. The T-84 is no different hence the insanely low production numbers. You know the Legendary Kharkiv Tank Factory that used to produce the famous T-34 and soon the T-64 and T-80? Yeah well Ukraine was so corrupt even a factory of that size was left to rot and closed in early 2000s. The final nail on the coffin for the Oplot was the closing of the Malyshev Tank Factory a few years later due to also insane levels of corruption and workers violations. Killing it permanently.
Yeah, its round can't pen more than 700mm
7:25 look up the new versions with era there
keep in mind the most powerful stuff they use to test on this thing is the rpg 7, not rpg 27 or javelin
Make the fact it is propaganda less obvious pls

The tank that broke down during parade hahahhaa its shit
that... applies as much to the invading orks called russians as it does to ukraine
@@user-et2dx5du7e"ooohh but Russia! but *Russia!"*
Wait what parade comrade😅
That tank is older than your parents, please respect the elderly(even though they're wrong sometimes).
T-14 broke on parade as well..
This tank is like T-14 Armata, it's tank for marching

With Ukrainian probably not being your first language and the fact that you got it close enough for people to understand enough to correct you, I think you're doing ok.
Question how come no one is ever thought to complement a tank gun with a set of missile pods like four sets of that
North korea did
There's no need, t64, t80 and subsequently t84 all could launch atgms from barrel of main cannon, a lot of tanks can in fact.
Thanks, Found and Explained.
The tank does exist Thailand owns a good amount of them and Ukraine owns the rest they weren't mass-produced because of corruption in lack of funds and the start of the war happened and some of them went to Ukrainian military and the rest were exported to their buyers it is a pretty modernized version of the t80 I wouldn't say it is the best tank in the world I wouldn't say any tank is but it is a pretty well-rounded tank and a huge difference from the original
Why would there be corruption on tanks bought by Thailand? Then I hope the Government of Thailand has properly asked for there money back from the snakes in Kharkiv.
Thailand has been frustratingly seeking the substitutable parts for years. I think at least the 125 mm round is common with its Chinese tank VT-4.
@@kittenastrophy5951 yeah I'm sure they use both the same round and there is a pretty big market for that type of round so they won't have problems getting the ammo and a lot of the parts that are modern Western technology shouldn't be hard to get if they know the right sources now the Soviet parts of the tank might be a little harder to get but still there is a vast amount of parts for anything from t62 to t80 probably because there is a lot of countries still using them
@@kittenastrophy5951 t-84 can use DTC 10 yes. it is same gun but with different name
The cast turrets were made by Azovstal in Mariupol, not Russia. It's the Russians who switched to welded turrets as a result.
cast turrets were made in Omsk and UVZ. This technology isn't used anymore.
This sounds like the T-14 all over again.
But much cheaper and less capable
If it's moves by itself it's more capable than the T-14..@@rajaydon1893
It’s actually called Kharkov or it will be call that again soon.
Oplot is not new, nor it's great.
It's great if they were able to produce them and if it would work as promised and as intended. It's a good tank on paper.
@@korana6308It still aint cause it is sluggish, heavy and outdated and also it doesn’t have good ammunition, a T90m or a Leopard will turn this thing into scrap metal
0:37 The shell ehhhh over penetrates
will u make a wid on a Croatian M95 Degman
If a T90M were to go 1v4 with a BM Oplot M, the T90M would win every single time, why? Ukraine has like 2 of them
Officially it has 4 tanks. But only 1 has ever been spotted. I'm pretty sure they are keeping the other 3 for spare parts. Because Ukraine can't produce them anymore.
Dude, the T-90M had access to the 3BM60 Svinets. Thats not even a proper match up. The T-84 will be suited to fight the T-80BV more than anything else.
It has a bright future though, when Kharkov returns to the motherland , Russia will fund it's small series production.
Something tells me that Russia has no money for that either, and I don't see how it's gonna change any time soon.
Russia is already having a hard time restarting the T-80 production. Though the Kharkov Tank Factory was the original one that manufactures the T-80. I highly doubt its capable of modernizing such an ancient factory.
@@pilotman9819Didnt the Ural factories pump out 1800 T90M's in 3 weeks a few months ago? I remember western media commenting on it.
1:23 we need a new unit. gallons per mile.
If Gaijin added this thing in the Soviet tree then the bias would be even more incredible, the sheer reverse speed would be incomparable to every other T-64/72/80 variants.
Ukraine/Russia conflict has changed the way we look at tanks. I find myself drawn to looking at the top of the tank now instead of the armor and reactive plates all around them. Drone warfare will forever change the way tanks are designed and made. Initially, I think they will look to technology to counter drones flying into them but from what we have seen in this conflict they will need to come up with some sort of change on the exterior of the tanks to stop even small drones from dropping an explosive on top of them. The way they have used small FPV drones along with larger kamikaze drones it will be interesting to see what tank designers come up with.
Propaganda warning
I mean, a singular tank, being produced in relatively very small numbers, will never save a country alone
It is worth noting that Ukraine cannot produce barrels for tank guns. Guns from the old t64 storage bases were installed on the T84.
T84 is actually a T64 in new clothes.
Kharkov is one of the best plant/tank design bureau during the Soviet era, unfortunately because how broke the economy of Ukraine is I'm not surprised they can't afford their best tank
Uralvagonzavod?? .
@@carkawalakhatulistiwa I said one of the best so Uralvagonzavod obviously also belongs to that category
@@adillakandi.r On May 12, 2023, Defense Minister Reznikov drove an Oplot at a training ground in Kharkiv Oblast and subsequently announced that the Armed forces of Ukraine would order an unspecified number of Oplots. Obviously they now can afford to restart the production of the Oplot.
@@1ndragunawanCan they though? Their economy is pretty mych in ruins, quite literally.
@@Henry_the_Eighth_ Ukraine has been buying a lot of combat vehicles from several countries using funds from the EU and the US, so now Ukraine has the money to restart production.
Saying the Oplot is the world's best tank and that Ukraine is an utopia are both factually incorrect. Wrong audience bro.
He should stick to reviewing planes 😂
BM Oplot hasn’t been destroyed because it really didn’t exist
I don't like how the title has "best"...pretty subjective
Ain't no way the worlds best tank could be made in Ukraine
It could be. Take the “nota” for example. It’s much better than any modern tank
@@gigabrothers6131Is it even real?
@@M65V19 it is, it’s build but project is cancelled
It's good on paper, but has a lot of issues with the 'soft' factors. Like the CITV blocking the commander's cupola, so he has terrible situational awareness without almost getting out of the tank, or relying entirely on cameras. Also, Duplet ERA is very heavy, so they had to remove armor to fit all of that ERA. If those blocks don't work as advertised, are damaged, or used up, then the tank had basically paper thin frontal armor. And of course throwbacks to soviet tank design like lever driver controls, explosive autoloader, tight intetior etc.
@@andrasbeke3012 it has no duplet. Thing about cupola is a previous object 477A
Absolutely right. All the cream ended up in Ukraine during the Soviet era. All general secretaries were from Ukraine: Khrushchev, Brezhnev, Gorbachev. Therefore, Ukraine in the USSR lived for free. And when they separated, it became heroic... They got used to begging and stealing. Now let the entire European Union feed the freeloaders. Let's see how much is enough for Europe?
Europe knows it will receive a friendly neighbour and ally by helping Ukraine resist a brutal invasion.
How naive you guys are!! We will go to the end, we warned you. You've played too hard with your NATO. Are you tired of your full life?@@HummelJaeger
@@user-gt3uj3qo5n : Russia would be doing fine if it concentrated on developing a diversified economy and improved its public and social services. But right now, Russia is collapsing slowly inside. No single dramatic thing, but multiple systems breaking down outside the main cities - such as roads and transport, health and local government. The point of no return will likely be when the Federal government begins amalgamating ministries and divesting formerly federal decision-making roles down to regions - or forming autonomous government agencies in regions to do so.
Dear, where did you get such crap from? According to the rating, Russia has overtaken several European countries, including Germany and the UK@@HummelJaeger
Russia warned Ukraine that another betrayal would result in the loss of its statehood. Well, the West doesn’t understand what kind of viper it is protecting; it will soon regret it.@@HummelJaeger
you think it is the most protected do you know about challenger 2?
Challenger 2 has worse lower plate armor than a WW2 tank (60mm SHA lol). In fact, it has THE WORST PROTECTION of any modern MBT. And this doesn’t even get into how bad it’s rifled gun and it’s pathetic 80s APFSDS is
Well at 4:30 this tank gets a much better reverse speed! Yeah, they need that right about now.
It's always going to be Kiev, Kharkov, etc; just like i'm never going to call Turkey "Turkiye". I don't care what local butthurt name changes they do.
