The modernized Tiger-M was shown during the arms exhibition in the Russian Federation "Army-2023". He was nicknamed Max for his weird appearance. The machine received additional housing reservations, including arches above the wheels, the frontal part and the door. Additional armor should allow you to withstand a 7. 62-mm caliber ball. The Russian Federation stated that the protection can be set in about 40 minutes.
The main purpose of modernization is to ensure the safety of columns, the cover of troops and to increase the combat capabilities and survivability of the machine. The open question remains how additional weight affects the main characteristics of the machine. Analysts during the announcement of the machine had doubts about the reliability of the structure. Extra reservation can be removed, but you do not see handles above the arches so that the wheel can be quickly replaced.
