The emergence of the UAVs has reshaped the war tactics in this and any future conflict where main battle tanks are used in big numbers.

Relative simplicity of the tank, together with the low operational cost, simpler training and non complex operation makes this tank perfect choice under the circumstances. It can be used as a self propelled howitzer with a range of 8km and that is the main reason the Russians are using them for. Long range artillery pieces.

Even though it is an old tank, with the improvements ( mainly advance sighting capabilities - thermal vision) it has been proven to be very effective and valuable addition to the Russian army.

will be interesting to see if tanks can adapt ....presumably by mesh and by electronic interference
