The T-80 is a main battle tank (MBT) that was designed and manufactured in the former Soviet Union and manufactured in Russia. The T-80 is based on the T-64, while incorporating features from the later T-72 and changing the engine to a gas turbine. When it entered service in 1976, it was the first production tank to be powered solely by turbine.
The T-80 is a main battle tank originally designed by the Soviet Union that became the world's first production tank powered entirely by a gas turbine engine when it entered service in 1976. It combined design elements from two earlier Soviet tanks—the T-64 and T-72—and has continued to be manufactured in Russia since the Soviet Union's collapse.
