One of the variants of the "frontier-covering tank." The vehicle featured quite a simple yet technologically advanced hull and turret welded from flat plates. It was supposed to mount two solid-propellant jet boosters for crossing tough terrain, as well as for self-recovery. No prototypes were manufactured. The project was canceled during the design phase in 1969.
