Is T-14 a Copy of M1TTB ?!?

It seems many people have come to believe that T-14 came as an inspiration from the American M1 Tank Test Bed, some outright even sayings that its a direct copy. But that is far from the truth. In this video we will take a quick peak at some of the projects that led up to T-14 and we will see how does M1 TTB connect to all of that, if it even does in the first place.

    Probably the very first project of an "uninhabited" turret was a project by Nikolai Benardos (a Russian engineer of Greek origin) around the 1890s, when he proposed making remote-controlled coastal turrets with Gauss cannons. During the First World War, systems for remote control of naval artillery were developed in Russia, including synchronization with sights, automatic loading with belt-fed ammunition, stabilization, etc., another project was a turret with a multi-barreled anti-aircraft gun with a "fire" width of about 4.3 meters synchronized with a separate scope. During World War II, remotely controlled turrets appeared on some aircraft, automatic loading systems for tank guns were developed, at least in the USA and the USSR this was the case. In fact, already at that time it was possible to create a tank similar to the TTB or T-14 "Armata". At the same time, there were already systems capable of transmitting images live via cable or radio, at least there were several attempts to create an analogue of Skype even before the First World War, the main problem was price and accuracy. Roughly speaking, after all these inventions, the creation of such a tank as the TTB or T-14 was only a matter of time.

And also, contrary to the popular belief, AK-47 isn't the first soviet assault rifle that would be outwardly similar to StG-44... that honour goes to several gun projects from 1944 such as Sudayev's AS-44 (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AS-44), and mind you, that gun's operating parts were more similar to StG-44 (and also to czech ZB-26 machine gun...) Also, there isn't that much german designers did to help soviets, and Hugo Schmeisser's work in USSR tends to be overestimated, although he should have been recognised in helping to perfect gas piston for some of the early designs that entered soviet 1946 SMG trials

There was also a few thousand full-auto SVT-40's made for NKVD paratroopers. "Worked with German designers", in the middle of the war? The Kalashnikov rifle was designed in 1944 already, but only when into service after the war because they didnt want to slow down the production of the already capable SKS. Same reason why the T-44 wasn't put into production before the end of the war, because they didnt want to slow down the production of T-34/85's. Also, if you ever saw the mechanism of those rifles, you would've seen that the HK G3 and AR15/M16 share more similar design features to the STG44 than the AK.

However, as you can see, many of the operating mechanisms (with the exception of the roller-delayed blowback) and ergonomic principles, even the one from StG-44, were known and used before... SVT-40 has the same locking mechanism, czechoslovak ZB-26 machine gun, a direct predecessor to the famous BREN machine gun has almost the same method operating mechanism (including the combination of tilting bolt and long-stroke gas piston) as MKb-42 (H) from which the StG-44 was just an update, and so on...

The Soviets had Object 292, a 152mm armed T-80U, the US had two different projects involving up-gunning the M1 Abrams to 140mm (M1 CATTB and Lockheed Martin's 'Thumper'), as did Germany, with the Leopard 2 KWS III and Leopard 2 T19. Several other countries followed this trend, like France and Switzerland, so it'd be a neat topic to cover!

    Convergent evolution is a thing. There are, for example, different species of crustaceans that look like crabs but are of no relation to them. They simply evolved many similar traits because they were advantageous for survival. Same goes for tanks, ideas are not exclusive, and designers can arrive to same conclusions on their own.

    Great video. I would like to see though how T-14 came about to be chosen, since for years there was a lot of rumours of the "Black Eagle" and T-95 tanks that will take place of the T-72 platform. Do we know what T-14 is in the doctrine? Is it just a replacement (which mostly happened in the western countries) or is it a specialised vehicle that is supposed to be fighting with other tanks in combined arms warfare, like T-64 with T-55 and T-80 with T-72.

    There was a project called Object 219 "Burlak", a new turret that was able to be immediately fitted on all existing T-72, T-80 and T-90 hulls. It has the 2a82 125mm gun ( T-14 Armata's gun), the autoloader was moved to a massive turret bustle on the rear (similiar to the Leclerc's autoloader), and is able to fit the 3BM69 (DU) and 3BM70 (tungsten) APFSDS shells which are now used on the T-14, 3rd gen thermals, APS, etc. But it got cancelled for unknown reasons. Instead, it was decided that T-14 becomes the new "elite tank", while T-72B3, T-80BVM and T-90M will be the "standard tanks" or "frontline tanks". The 3BM59 and 3BM60 shells (with 740-800mm pen) made for the modernized older tanks are enough to deal with almost any current NATO tank, i guess that was the reason.

So it's more a physics and technology thing, it's now you make the best tank today.

    The human body and psyche are pretty universal, so solutions for certain problems will often look similar. Most people have pretty similar ergonomic needs, so is it any wonder chairs look "the same"? Similarly, tanks have pretty strict design limitations (length/width ratios, weight and balance, needs an engine, etc.) and so it should be expected that they would have broadly similar designs. It should therefore be no surprise, then, that designs intended to improve crew survivability would look similar, since tanks have similar limitations. Putting all the crew in a single, heavily armored capsule weighs less than separating them, improves morale and efficiency by having crew near each other, and is more predictable for weight balance.

    it's just that, as time goes on, in the search of more efficient weaponry, different factions come to design similar things. a kind of evolutionary convergence. in the same way as most armies have come to use an assault rifle of some sort as the kind of standard rifle for the basic infantrymen (and the very basic requirments are similar, as most assault rifles usually have more or less around 30 rounds in mag, an intermediate cartridge, both semi auto and full auto, etc... ) same for portable anti tank weapons : shaped charge is the technology used by most armies.

They do not admit they took inspiration from the gun when designing the SR-44 based on the StG-44. The SR-44 became the AK-47, they ignore this by claiming the StG-44 was not the world's first assault rifle by pointing to the Fedorov Avtomat and forgetting about the M1918 Browning Automatic Rifle, and other such designs.
