Key Design Characteristics

Autoloader: The T-72 uses a carousel-type automatic loader, which allows the tank to operate with a crew of three by eliminating the human loader. This mechanism contributes to the tank’s low silhouette and small size.

Low Profile: The compact design provides a very small target, a hallmark of Soviet tank design philosophy. However, this sacrifices crew comfort and internal space.

Vulnerability: The design of the autoloader and the storage of ammunition in a carousel beneath the turret floor has historically been a significant vulnerability, sometimes leading to the turret being violently detached upon a critical hit (« jack-in-the-box » effect).
