The campaign to deploye the new Russian tank 'Armata' to the troops took an unexpected turn. “Eleven years in development, the programme has been dogged with delays, reduction in planned fleet size, and reports of manufacturing problems.” “Production is probably only in the low tens while commanders are unlikely to trust the vehicle in combat,” the British military said.
