Zitat:Ukraine is updating it's armor force by modernizing two decade old T-64B tanks, and turning them into new models called the Bulat. This is a similar approach many nations have followed, to upgrade their warplanes without breaking the bank. It cost Ukraine about $670,000 per tank for the first batch of 30. But for that, each tank got a set of reactive armor, which provided all round protection from RPGs and missiles, as well as increased defense against tank shells. [...] Ukraine plans to produce 400 Bulats in the next five years, with the conversion price per tank going down to about $400,000. There are also plans to offer Bulats for export, probably for a bit less than a million dollars a tank. [...]
