The R-06 Main Battle Tank was developed in 842AJ for the Nova English Armed Forces to replace the then ageing R-04 series of tanks. Since its initial production run the tank has undergone a number of upgrades including the refitting of range finding equipment and computer controls as technology has improved over time. In 2017 the remaining fleet of R-06 tanks have been fitted with an additional module to track the unique magnetic interference produced by gravimetric engines.
