First picAll I see is a thermal sight in those pics. Or is that thing on the right supposed to be a LWR? Looks pretty crappy whatever it is....thats why we need better close up pictures and videos like this one:
upper thing is Thermal,
below it LWR
It will depend on who's attacking who and where the face off takes place + exact ground auxiliaries, AT-infantry present, air assets available.
But assuming just a level flat terrain with no cover, I would have to give the advantage to the B'desh tank on paper. This is assuming the upgrade suite does indeed cover everything listed
The main points why + questions:
1. Better power/weight. Traction will be roughly equivalent given the soviet heritage of both models. I am not sure of the quality of the Chinese transmission, so I will assume its the same for now...but it could be worse (not sure)...but definitely not better. Does anyone have the exact weight of this improved T-69? It will give a better calculation to compare....but 1200 horses is definitely a lot more than 840 for what I assume is roughly the same weights. Also any info on the 1200 HP engine would be interesting to see.
2. FCS. Will need some details for the FCS on T-69. If its a generation or more than the one on Myanmar T-72, it could be significant. I am assuming Myanmar has the standard 80s era FCS the USSR put on export models. Does anyone know when Myanmar acquired the T-72s....and were they brand new or surplus stock from USSR/Russia?
The thermal sights are a great advantage for especially night fighting capability for T-69. Are we sure Myanmar does not have any on T-72? Laser warning receiver is also a very sizeable advantage and will counter laser painting. Jamming, is that a radio jammer?....will need info on the power output of it so effective range can be estimated. But a good extra to have nonetheless.
Thus FCS details (processor, architecture...anything really) will be very handy to know how ahead the T-69 is in this department.
3. Guided missiles, same thing....what are the ones used in Bangladesh arsenal specifically for T-69?
4. ERA + physical armour. Should be about the same for survivability on both. The lower profile of T-72 gives it a marginal advantage though....though the shaped ERA on the T69 may compensate to some level as well.
5. Combat data link + Navigation/GPS for T-69. Any specific details again?
If everything is sourced from China for T-69 upg, I feel Rhino upgrade or similar standard will definitely have an edge....and you will have assured reliability and quality/numbers to base performance on.
All the Bangladesh information hits a dead end somewhere at a forum at some point (unless someone has some solid paper/info released by Bangladesh military/Chinese supplier). Basically its someone that knows someone in the military....so I will hold final judgement till I see something more solid/reliable. The 1200 HP engine especially sounds sketchy....as do the inclusion of some of the other things (its like someone went to a tick box and ticked everything). So would simply like to see something officially released somewhere first on this upgrade.....someone out there would have done a much better search than I have!
Does anyone know when Myanmar acquired the T-72s..
sry.. i missed this one.. yes.. they have Thermal Sight... As for Guided Missiles, we used 9K120 Svir..Are we sure Myanmar does not have any on T-72?
if Myanmar's T-72 gets upgraded to Rhino Standard then they will be like carbon copy of each other.
is there any such plan ?
how many tanks Myanmar Total has ?Myanmar got them about 2000s.. bro
how many tanks Myanmar Total has ?
pheeeeeuuu ...i was about to call for helpI means we got them since 2000s.. not quantity..!!
