The "Armata" Universal Combat Platform (Russian: Армата)^[8][9] is a Russian advanced next generation modular heavy military tracked vehicle platform. The Armata platform is the basis of the T-14 (an MBT), the T-15 (a heavy infantry fighting vehicle), a combat engineering vehicle, an armoured recovery vehicle, a heavy armoured personnel carrier, a tank support combat vehicle and several types of self-propelled artillery, including the 2S35 Koalitsiya-SV under the same codename based on the same chassis. It is also intended to serve as the basis for artillery, air defense, and NBC defense systems.^[10] The new "Armata" tank platform is meant to replace the older Russian MBTs and APCs that are currently used by the Russian military.^[11][12]
