2A62 is an experimental 85mm cannon from the Soviet Cold War period, which was to be the main armament of the 2S14 Zhalo-S wheeled tank destroyer, which in turn was based on the hull and mechanical components of the BTR-70. Cannon The 2A62 was essentially a scaled down version of the 100mm T-12 towed anti-tank gun and was developed in the mid-1970s. The new gun, compared to the T-12, had a significantly reduced recoil, and its theoretical rate of fire increased to as much as 26 shots per minute! At the same time, however, it was found that the penetration power had decreased compared to the T-12, and the new gun would have had huge problems with destroying the western 3rd generation vehicles (e.g. Leopard 2 or M1 Abrams). Mainly for the latter reason, neither the 2A62 gun nor the Zhalo-S car entered mass production. On the other hand, the gun was great for destroying light armored vehicles and could (together with the Zhalo-S vehicle) strengthen the potential of the Soviet armed forces.
