The Russian Federal Service for Defence Contracts (Rosoboronexport) announced in July 2008 that a new tank (which rumour has previously referred to as the T-95) was due to be introduced in 2009, but development was cancelled in May 2010. Some 31 new T-90 tanks were expected to enter service in 2007, and 60 in 2008. In 2007, there were about 334 T-90 tanks serving in the Russian Ground Forces' 5th Guards Tank Division, stationed in the Siberian Military District, and seven T-90 tanks in the Navy. By mid-1996 some 107 T-90s had gone into service in the Far Eastern Military District. By September 1995, some 107 T-90 tanks had been produced, located in the Siberian Military District. The T-90 MBT was shown for the first time outside Russia in March 1997 when it was demonstrated in Abu Dhabi. The T-90 MBT was developed at the Kartsev/Venediktov Bureau, `Vagonka' at Nizhnyi Tagil. The T-90 is equipped with precise weapons laying systems enabling the crew to engage ground and air targets. The T-90 tank is a further development of the T-72B Main Battle Tank (MBT).
