The most notable element of the T-14 is its 125mm smooth-bore gun, mounted in an unmanned turret.
An order for 100 pre-series models was made in 2016. . In May 2018, about twenty T-14s were in testing with the Russian armed forces. Mass production is planned for 2019-2020. This remains utopian because of delays in development and a very high production price. The forecast of 2500 tanks for 2025 seems just as utopian as well.
