According to the available data, the tank has many improvements over older Russian tanks, including a more powerful engine, increased crew survivability, and greater firepower.

The tank is being produced at the Uralvagonzavod factory, but the exact number built and operational is unknown. Some photos and videos from as early as 2015 show the construction of T14 tanks, which might suggest a higher production rate, but this is not confirmed. Russia’s procurement process involves creating mock-ups, prototypes, and testing before serial production.

Despite the T14’s existence, it has not been widely deployed in Ukraine. There have been claims of T14 sightings, but these have been disputed. Officially, the testing and trials of the T14 have not concluded, and production has yet to begin, with the plan being to deliver a pilot batch of 20 tanks in 2021. It’s likely that Russia is waiting to learn lessons from the use of tanks in Ukraine and applying those lessons to future production. With many of its military systems, including the T14, Russia has faced difficulties in developing and mass-producing new technology, opting instead to upgrade older Soviet systems.
