Yes, though it's very long in this case.

Also - as far as I understand, illustration shows an early concept of autoloader, where shells are in carousel, and charges come exclusively from the bustle.
Real tank is simpler.
Uh, no?
Bustle is for storing additional non-automated ammo outside of the hull. Like in T-90M. No loader.
Autoloader has it's own places for charges, look closely - each cassette consists of two cylinders. Like T-72 cassette, only turned 90 deg vertically.

Exactly. And then use AI translation at illustration. :)
It's a different autoloader.
