Al-Khalid tank (Type 90-IIM / MBT-2000) Information Pool

[Dazzler]

AK has all this tech.

The main offer is for imagery sights, currently Pak buys Thales/Sagem etc for AK. Which are expensive, while Turkey is offering similiar sights at lower prices.

The FCS/GCS offered is also pretty decent, on par with LEO-2A5+ and M1A2 xx.

AFAIK the FCS and gun control system on Al-Khalid is of French origin..

KDR has interviewed Parkistan Army delegate in IDEX 2017 and said the first stage upgrade for AK has been finished, with digital controlled driver system
The next stage of upgrade will use 1500HP engine， with engine from UK Bangan and gearbox from Germany, and 6TD2 can not fulfill Pakistan Army anymore

But what is UK Bangan? Any typo?

Hmm, i dont think UK has anything better to offer here when their own Challenger 2s still operating the same old Perkins CV12 1200hp engine, which was proven to be inferior to 6td-2 during field trials in Bahawalpur. Gearbox from Germany makes little sense as they are also sanction prone.

On another note, here is a glimpse into the new digital driver station onboard the Alkhalid.

And built in house..

Much like the imagery systems which are produced by a Pakistani company.. Shibli Electronics.

Since they have opted for 1500 HP
Engine.

I wonder if there will be more visible external change .. perhaps a new turret ?

So there isn't really much ability to enhance what is produced on license.. Are there any projects to produce indigenously from what is learned from license production ?

See the specs here...

Extrapolated from specs;

IIR: 2nd generation detector, scanning type (interlaced).
Magnification: 6x to 10x (10 to 6 degree FOV)
Laser Range finder: 0.2-10km

It's actually good, definitely not worth the costs to upgrade existing MBT and certainly good enough for Al-Khalid II.

the new cameo looks awesome but they should change the m113 turret to a remotely controlled one ...
