The combat platform is formally designated as 'prospective family of heavy unified battlefield platforms'. The new 'Armata' tank platform is meant to replace the older Russian MBTs and APCs that are currently used by the Russian military. It is also intended to serve as the basis for artillery, air defense, and NBC defense systems. 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.
