Not in UkraineWe Might Know Why Russia's New Armata Tank Is Missing from Ukraine
The T-14 Armata tank may not be in Ukraine, simply because Moscow doesn't have enough to actually send into battle.www.19fortyfive.com
The T-14 may not be in Ukraine, simply because Moscow doesn’t have enough to actually send. As previously reported, Russian tank manufacturer Uralvagonzavod first said the T-14 would be delivered in 2018. Then the distribution of the first nine tanks would come in 2019. After this date came and went, the leadership said 20 would be tested and 80 would be ready by the end of 2021.
Moscow had announced last year that the T-15 Armata would enter serial production this year, but it seems that the new cutting-edge MBTs wont’ be ready until after next year at the very earliest.
Dear, I was teasing.
Russia dispatched BMPT-72 to Ukraine:

Only nine of the BMPT-72s are thought to be in frontline Russian use, and they have all been seen heading towards Ukraine.

But they are hesitant to dispatch Armata.
The answer is obvious; it is good for parades, photo sessions, YouTube and video games.
Russians will not risk it in Ukraine.
