PT-91 Twardy Main Battle Tank

PT-91 Twardy Main Battle Tank
The Main Battle Tank of the Polish Army is the PT-91 "Twardy", developed from the popular Soviet-era T-72 MBT (T-72M1). The PT-91 represents a 50-ton armored combat vehicle with a low-profile, an autoloader reducing the crew to three and a formidable 125mm main gun. Explosive Reactive Armor (ERA) blocks are used liberally in the latest incarnations of the vehicle to help promote improved battlefield survivability. The Polish derivative also includes many indigenous components that differentiate the design greatly from its Soviet Cold War-era origins including a local engine, communications suite and Fire Control System (FCS). Some 225 of the type are believed to have been produced with initial year of service being 1995.

When you mentioned the FCS the fire control system you could have told us that the PT 91 has Thermal imaging for its sights. Quote from Wiki: TES thermovision night sight developed by the Israeli company El-Op, the POD-72 commander's combined day-night passive observation and aiming sight, a ballistic computer, a laser rangefinder, and a data system processing information for the ballistic computer.

Polish products are not bad, and the fact that we do not export and produce too much of our products to the world is not the fault of Polish engineers. Simply, foreign policy is hampering the development of my country and not only. If it wasn't for the hostile actions, anti-advertising of foreign media, corrupt politicians acting against Polish interests, today the development of my country would look different. So please remember that we don't live in a fairy tale world.
