@Serpentine
Do you know what are those two ring(tubes) on Zulfaghar Tank? They look like spare tires.
BTW, it seems that those trucks are from Naser-aldin shah or Nader shah army. Why they don'y buy some new trucks for Artesh?
BTW, why tanks are always shown with Tank Transporter? I don't remember seeing Zulfaghar moving without Tank Transporter in a parade.

In farsi:
Albatteh nazmeshoun ham ke eftezaah hast mesle hamisheh. Haddeaghal beran az kore shomali ya chin, yek rezhe raftan ra yaad begiran.

Why did Iran not invest in their newer Tanks rather upgrading this specific model M-47 they may not survive the firepower.

So Iran is getting better at " Reverse Engineering ". That is great because that is the first step in development.

So let me start this way : there are 3 different 12.7 mm Gatling Guns in the world ;

1- Muharram 2- USA's GAU-19 3- Russian YAK-B model for Hind heli

Muharram , The only 6-barreled 12.7 mm Gatling Gun in the world , has the following characteristics :

Rate of fire : 2500 bullets per min

Range : like other 50 caliber guns , it has an optimum range of 1600-2000 meters and final range of up to 5000 .

=====================================

so for the ones who dont know what the heck is 12.7 mm bullets and how is it an advantage , i give u guys some info :

we all know that 7.62 mm bullets are used in guns like AK-47 and american minigun . so give u a perspective :

the right one is an standard 7.62 bullet used in the worldwide known minigun :

the left one is obviously 12.7 mm bullet , used in both muharram and GAU-19 . anyway , 12.7 mm bullets can easily (like a piece of cake) penetrate and melt down vehicles like hummer

while a hummer is most of the times equipped with a minigun , its range doesnt surpass that of 1000 meters , whereas iranian vehicles equipped with muharram can enjoy a final range of 5000 meters . besides that most of today's modern military vehicles are 100% resistant to 7.62 mm bullets .

===============================

comparison of Muharram to its foreign rivals :

1- Muharram Vs YAK-B : although yak enjoys very good features , its only capable of carrying very low amount of ammunition , due to its compact design (for Hind choppers ) :

thus , cannot be very effective during a long combat , besides that there is the fact that its only designed for helicopters and cannot be mounted on ground vehicles . (how many Hinds can they produce ? )

2- Muharram Vs GAU-19 : GAU-19 is the closest rival to Muharram as a matter of fact .

it also uses 12.7 mm bullets so it enjoys the same range , BUT :

GAU-19 is 3-barrel gun , so compared to Muharram (6-barreled Gun) it enjoys significantly lower Rate of fire :

in A model its about 1000-2000 bullets per min , whereas in model B only 1300 !!!

.

thats how awesome Muharram is . now gimme one of these and let me handle a brigade lol

I don't like the name Muharram for a weapon. I find it disrespectful.

Anyway, just my opinion.

i dont know why u think like that , no disrespect is followed my naming a gun after month's name ( very important to shia muslims like me )

BTW , lets talk about technical issues here

When I think of Muharram, I think of Aashoora and Imam Hussain's sacrifice, even though he could have accepted God's offer to wipe out Yazeed's army in a second.

Anyway, the gun itself looks cool. Good job!
