The Object 490B
Belka is an alternative design proposed for the Object 490 main battle tank
after the decision in 1984 to use a 152mm smoothbore gun on the future Soviet
MBTs instead of the 125mm smoothbore gun.
The Object 490B vastly differed from the original Object
490A design had an extremely sloped steel frontal armor instead of composite
armor and four sets of tracks.
The design had a
two-man crew placed at the rear of the vehicle with the main gun and its
ammunition in a separate compartment in front of them, while its two engines
and fuel tank was placed at the front.
The placement of
the crew at the rear most part of the vehicle greatly increased the crew's
survivability and made the use of composite armor unnecessary, given that the
tank's other components in front would be sufficient to stop any penetrating
projectiles from getting into the crew compartment.
The tank's four
sets of tracks was intended to allow the vehicle to still be mobile even if the
front tracks were damaged by mines or enemy fire.
The design never went past the scale model mock-up stage due to the introduction of the Object 299's Universal Combat Platform concept of vehicles in the late 1980s.
