Detailed 3D renders of Russia’s long-abandoned experimental T-95 main battle tank project—also known as “Object 195”—have surfaced online, offering an unprecedented look at the advanced design once pursued by the Russian military-industrial complex.
The renders were created by 3D artist Gustiiz3D using an original set of technical blueprints that recently appeared on Western platforms. According to the artist, “these renders were produced based on an authentic album of schematics that recently leaked online.”
The T-95, a 58-ton prototype described as a tank built to “extreme parameters,” was reportedly equipped with a 152mm main gun and an additional 30mm cannon. The vehicle was designed to accommodate a crew of up to three personnel, seated in an isolated armored capsule located in the forward section of the hull. This layout physically separated the crew from both the fuel tanks and ammunition storage areas—an arrangement aimed at improving survivability.
Russian defense commentators had long speculated about the configuration and survivability features of the T-95, and these newly released renders now provide visual confirmation of several unique design aspects.
According to the source material, the T-95 was intended to include advanced multilayer composite armor along with the “Drozd-2” active protection system and “Relikt,” a next-generation explosive reactive armor (ERA) package. These combined systems suggest that the tank was being developed to counter modern anti-tank threats on both conventional and asymmetric battlefields.

However, the T-95 project was officially canceled in 2008 by the Russian Ministry of Defense. As noted by open-source defense observers, Moscow’s decision to terminate Object 195 reflected both the high cost and the complexity of the platform’s development.
In a follow-on attempt, the Russian defense sector shifted focus to a more simplified and allegedly cost-effective platform known as the T-14 “Armata,” developed under the Object 148 program. Yet even this effort appears to have encountered persistent setbacks. Despite more than a decade of promotional campaigns, limited production, and sporadic appearances at parades and expos, the T-14 remains absent from full-scale combat operations.
Russian sources suggest that like its predecessor, the Armata project has become stalled due to unresolved technical issues, funding constraints, and logistical incompatibilities with existing Russian Army support infrastructure.
