British military intelligence warns of Russia's new 'super tank'

Russian President Vladimir Putin's "revolutionary" new super tank has worried intelligence officials who say Russia has the west outgunned.

British military intelligence officers issued a warning document about Russia's Armata battle tank, Britain's Telegraph reported.

Officers said the "super tank" was far superior to anything available to Nato, saying the Kremlin's Armata could overpower Britain's Challenger II battle tank.

The tank was introduced in 2015, and exhibited during Russia's annual Victory Day Parade in Red Square earlier this year.
