About this vehicle

A double-barreled version of the Object 265 project, developed in the late 1950s. Its unconventional solutions (use of new control systems and locating the driver in the turret) made it difficult to find a customer. As a result, the project was closed to focus efforts on modifying the T-10 (Object 730).
