>actually T-80U still has the same weak spots, the turret roof angle was only redesigned with the T-80UD
Damn really? From all the images I have seen angle wise the T-80U and UD roof looks similar (T-80UD got different ERA roof layout and an remote weapon station for the commander) but if that is the case then the Kharkiv tank plant in soviet ukraine was truly the only ones that could innovate in tank designs that got mass produced in the soviet union.
