  • Ukraine offers to Turkey 1.000 T-84 tanks for Tank-2000 project, worth a total $2 billion  (Feb. 5) 

T-84 Main Battle TankUkraine has sent a T-84 tank to Turkey for tests in a bid to win a $2 billion international tender to sell 1,000 tanks to Ankara. The tank was sent to Turkey on February 2nd. Ukraine has said it will offer Turkey 1,000 T-84 tanks, worth a total $2 billion. Officials say the ex-Soviet state faces tough competition from manufacturers in Germany, the United States and France.

The T-84 main battle tank is equipped with a 1,200 horsepower engine and a 120-millimetre cannon compatible with NATO standards. Ukrainian officials hope the relatively low price of the T-84 will help win the tender. They say the first in a series of tests will be carried out on February, 4th.
