Ours only foreign alternative for engine mtu . He's best for his class. Our 1500-1600 Hp class engine very Heavy for a tank I heard.
For that reason we need a weight loss and redesign altay. But How ? Of Course Like Armata ;
I always accept Russians Masters of Tank Design. With Armata Russians Again Approved the new era of tanks. So we use the this new era specs to our tanks.
1- We need a Unmanned low armoured but with akkor protected turret with autoloader.
2- And downd the person of tank 4 to 3 .
3- And locate hims front and well amoured only front
4- back side will be low armoured.
5- Make a modular tank and change parts with damaged ones easily.
İf we down the Altay class 65 to 50 we have a good engine options for make local versions and licenced builds ;
+ Fiat MTCA 12V 950 kW (1,270 hp)
+ KMDB 6TD-2 6-cylinder diesel 1,200 hp (890 kW)
+ Rolls-Royce CV12 26 litre diesel 1,200 hp (895 kW)
+ Perkins CV12-6A V12 diesel 26.1 litre
+ And other Russian and Chineese Engines.
We can buy of one of thats licence rights like t-129 and establish the new version on that and the other stages we can localize this engines step by step.
