Russia – Confirmed
Despite the price increase of the T-14, The Kremlin has confirmed it has budgeted for 2300 T-14 to be purchased for the Russian army between 2015 and 2020. As of October 2015, 20 have built for display, trials and possible training.
The T-14 will replace the T-90A as Russia’s frontline tank. We predict that the T-90A and upgraded T-72B3 will take a secondary role (storage or reserve units) with the T-80, which hasn’t been bought or upgraded for over a decade will finally be retired.
Egypt – Discussions
Russia has been attempting to increase its exports of new modern technology to the Middle-East in 2015, with Kuwait trialling the T-90SM Main Battle Tank. Russia is in active discussions with Egypt, who prior to the Gulf War imported large amounts of Russian armour.
Uralvagonzavod had announced they were putting on a demonstration in late 2015 for Egypt to show the Armata’s capabilities. Egypt’s response and assessment of the demonstration are not yet known.
