At the MSITF-2025 defense technology festival held in Uzbekistan, a modernized version of the Soviet T-64B tank by Semey Engineering was presented. The main feature of the modernized tank was its radically changed appearance. The main differences from the base T-64B tank are the installation of new composite armor and a Doosan DP222LC engine with a capacity of 950 horsepower. The new engine replaced the previous 5TDF with a capacity of 700 hp. It is unknown how effective the new armor is, but the tank received a futuristic look. The tank also received an automatic transmission. The tank weighing 40 tons is capable of speeds of up to 65 km / h. According to experts, the updated T-64B has become less visible to devices operating in the infrared and radar spectrums.

The Ukrainian army has equipped MaxxPro armored personnel carriers with a lattice protection system similar to the Tsar-Mangal, to protect the armored personnel carriers from drones. The protection is installed throughout the armored personnel carrier, with only the rear part being vulnerable.
