DUBAI, November 24. /TASS/. The Russian T-90M Proryv tank has proved itself to be the world’s best in the real combat environment, Deputy Chairman of the Security Council Dmitry Medvedev said in an interview with Al Arabiya television recorded during the visit to the Uralvagonzavod plant.

"The operation of probably our best tank T-90M Proryv has just been demonstrated to us. Many experts, I am not talking about the military proper, believe this is the best tank of our time, compared to Western counterparts in particular," Medvedev said. "Any performance characteristics, when comparing them on paper, say nothing," he noted. "The main issue is how a certain type of weapons, materiel will perform in real combat environment.
