Looks remarkably 'Cold War USSR', per their 'turtle' designs intended to ride-out near-by tac-nukes'...
 
hard to say, this VNII 100 drawing shares feateres from sme different projects.
 
It's from relatively recent article in Tekhnika I Vooruzhenie ("TiV") magazine, from 2023 №6. It continues in 2023 №9, I think that image depicts that very same design

It's not object 432, it's near-term next-gen tank design, one of several studied around that time in 1962 when they were formulating requirements for actual vehicle to be built and put into service, object 775.
Missile tank, as consensus at the time was that missile tanks are the only future (Morozov - chief designer of 432, 434, etc - was among those, who doubted that, and have bet on it by making 432 a tank with conventional gun firing conventional ammo, which, unlike some of his other ideas, turned out to be correct decision).
