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

[帅的一匹]

I thought that VT-4 tank was a cancelled project or is it Type 99 A2 ?
@DESERT FIGHTER @wanglaokan @Quwa

Modify the cooling fins to prevent the engine go over heat in desert? RTA inquired T99A2 back in year 2008, we turned down their request and they went for Oplot. We offered them MBT2000 with Ukranie engine, they prefer a Chinese made engine(we didn't have the permission to export back then). Now MBT3000 is almost equivalent to T99A2 in many expect even better(except armour), especially with a domestic 1300HP water cooling Diesel engine.

What is the status of Al Haider bidding? VT4 is out? Did PLA send in the MBT99A2 for test? Said Oplot and VT4 both failed in the desert test, then which tank PA is going for?

I think PA should evaluate Type 99 A2. Altay has 120 mm smoothbore gun and we operate 125 mm smoothbore gun so unless Turkey is willing to sell Altay with 125 mm smoothbore gun we should evaluate it other wise PA should evaluate Type 99 A2.

Chinese will come back with a better or rectified engine. Oplot-M is not certain to come back. Russians may send a variant of their T99.

Al Khalid is a light MBT we need a heavy MBT as well.

It's a medium weight tank .. 47 tons.. We don't need a heavy tank..

Exactly less fuel consumption, easy in logistics point of view, meant to move in deserts and every additional ton on tank will cost more fuel and movement in deserted area.

We need them in few numbers. Medium MBTs can't sustain the amount damage that Heavy MBTs can.

 

[Dazzler]

COAS will discuss the type-99 as VT-4 IS OFF THE TABLE due to recent trials.

http://www.defensenews.com/story/de...5/tank-gun-german-rheinmetall-130mm/85920592/ i think there is no need to buy altay or any tank which will cost more and additional headache what if we design our own 130 mm or with china or even better caliber gun i think alkhalid is more than enough
