Pakistan Army's VT-4 Main Battle Tank | Updates & Discussions

How you reached the conclusion that MS is superior ????

May be smoking weeds. The T 90MS is reasonable but Chinese are far ahead in sensors than Russians. In fact Russians are feeling the heat from Chinese in sensors and electronics and soon Russians will be assembling Chinese military hardware.

Seems suspicious, dont know why PA would reject the MS when it was the superior of the three. It probably is untrue.

At the time of the trial, it flunked.
The VT4 had issues but were fixed and it came for second trials and passed well.
Take a look back at this thread for some of the T-90MS v VT4 discussion, where the two were compared. The VT4 comes out tops.

Yep, did some more research, was wrong.

Completely agree, heck, ive been saying this for long, the Chinese make far better electronics. However the MS makes use of a Thales FCS.

You didn't know French has banned export to Russia? Russia is buying infrared detector from China instead.

Nope, did not know. I dont really follow tanks. Would make sense however.

Saw videos of GL5 active protection on the VT4..... looks amazing. I wish we incorporate it in AK1 and AK2.

It was not superior to others. Had unreliable vetronics and inferior fcs compared to VT4.

Pakistan is doing something interesting and strange. Pak is buying stuff and getting them supplied quietly and not acknowledging them. Hmmm.... interesting strategy to avoid a tit for tat.
