That's a big twinkie. More in line with a M1A1.

Do you have any info why the turret is so big? Expected it to be much smaller.

It's a mock-up placed on the top of the real turret which is much smaller. Possibly it looks like this:

The Russians have stuffed a number of systems in the turret. Including a number of active counter measures. Tack on large catch boxes to protect that stuff and ammo storage inthe back for the automatic gun and the turret gets big fast.

Ah I have read a report (forget where) that said russians who got close to the T-14 reported that the metal was all wobly. The report said it shows it is a prototype, but I thought "wasn't the T-95 much smaller?".
So I guess it could be maskirovka :)
