“阿尔玛塔”坦克实力天下无双？

俄罗斯新锐坦克“阿尔玛塔”坦克号称是实力第一的坦克。

British military intelligence officers have issued a warning over a new Russian 'super tank' which they claim is far superior to anything which is available to Nato.

英国军事情报官员对于俄罗斯超级坦克向世界发出警告，该款新型坦克战斗力被认为远超北约任何一国。

The document claims that Britain's Challenger II main battle tank could be overpowered by the Kremlin's new Armata tank.

该文件称英国挑战者2主战坦克实力可能被俄罗斯新锐坦克“阿尔玛塔”坦克超越。

Officials believe the new Russian tank is 'revolutionary' and blames the government for failing to provide a proper response.

英国情报机关官员称俄罗斯新型坦克是坦克制造业中的一场革命，并指责英国政府对此没有实施正确对策。

The current policy is to not consider a new main battle tank for at least 20 years as heavy armour is not suited to countering the threat posed by lightly-armed Jihadis.

英国目前的政策是，在至少20年内没有考虑研发新型坦克的计划，因为重型装甲无法抵抗来自恐怖分子轻武器装备的威胁。

According to the Sunday Telegraph, the internal military document said: 'Without hyperbole, Armata represents the most revolutionary step change in tank design in the last half century.'

《星期日电讯报》援引英国国防部的内部文件报道：“毫无疑问，阿尔玛塔新型坦克设计是半个世纪以来最具革命性的变革”。

'Unsurprisingly, the tank has caused a sensation.'

“阿尔玛塔坦克引进不小的轰动，这不足为奇。”

Intelligence experts believe the new Russian tank has a lower profile than Western heavy armour, is faster and lighter.

情报专家坚信俄罗斯新型坦克外形比西方国家重型装甲低调，速度更快且重量更轻。

The Armata is the first totally new Russian tank since the introduction of the T-72 in 1973. The vehicle's hull is made from steel, ceramics and composite materials.

阿尔玛塔坦克是自1973年推出T-72以后第一台全新型坦克。阿尔玛塔坦克机体由钢，陶瓷和复合材料制成。

The turret has the ability to self-load its ammunition, including high explosive and armour piercing rounds. It also has the ability to fire anti-tank missiles.

该坦克炮塔配备自动装弹机，包括高性能炸药和穿甲弹。它同时拥有反坦克导弹系统。

Also, the Russian machine has an unmanned turret and for the first time, Russian tank designers have considered the the ability for their crews to survive a hit as part of their design.

此外，这是俄罗斯坦克第一次使用无人炮塔，俄罗斯坦克设计者也将增强人员生存能力作为设计的一部分。

The document warns that Vladimir Putin presents a threat to countries surrounding his borders and this new tank will be crucial to his expansionist aims.

该文件警告称，普京对周边国家的安全造成了威胁，阿尔玛塔坦克对于他实现领土扩张目标发挥着重要作用。
