Pakistani War horse - Al Khalid.

[maverick1977]

Just a silly question do these metal armor machines have a internal climate control system ?

How do soliders stay for long periods inside the closed tanks for long period ?

@All
There is a Tank Expert called Zraver in this forum please read his all posts about Tanks, then comment.

I remember him very well but he by no means an expert on Indo-Pak MBTs, sorry. He didnt even know the difference between AK, AK-1

 

[Aamir Hussain]

The basic point is that AK is not meant to be fielded against the the French, German, or US tanks but Indian Armor. At this point in time the only effective argument is the comparison between what is fielded by India and AK.

Guys, it a Paksitani tank made for Pakistan at an affordable cost with the technology that can easily maintained and operated upon in the field by average PA tanker. It is not for global export or to compete against the first world chariots -- period!!!

So let us compare this with what India has or wil have in near future with AK or AKII.

Nabil I too remember your good debate with him.Will you please do a favor? Please brief here a short note of difference between AK and AK-1 that could be helpful for everyone especially for new joiners to know the facts.
Thanks

how many alkhalid do we have now in 2011?

 

[LeGenD]

how many alkhalid do we have now in 2011?

Around 300, if I am not wrong.

 

[mughaljee]

any information about AK-1 or 2 capabilities ?

 

[farhan_9909]

is ther any program for indegenous engine development for AK?

 

[maverick1977]

Al Khalid 2 will need one main change,
1) that is a powerful 125mm cannon which can fire faster APFSDS rounds

2) Powerful AFSDS rounds around 1800m/s + with penetration of 650mm and uptill 3km certified first hit capability. If these three parameters are confirmed then Al-Khalid 2 can be amongst the best tanks out there.

inorder to penetrate 650mm Pakistan will definately use depleted uranium rounds which are far denser than any metal or alloy out there. We need powerful gun to produce muzzle velocity of 1800m/s along with higher life !

 

[Frankenstein]

It isnt the best tank, but surly comes in top ten

 

[alimobin memon]

300 are lesser must produce faster

 

[nightcrawler]

I was dumb-founded when I read Arjun tank using rifled bore when even Britishers are converting their old Challengers to smooth-bore; but fair enough one is talking about Indians & HAL Tejas designers

 

[Super Falcon]

hahahahah HAL tejas designers good one what im looking forward to see AK 2 is more Agile fires more faster and heavy rounds to enemy and have good self defence against Attack helicopters specially becoz attack helis priority is to target tanks hope Ak 2 has good range against attack helis and sees helis before helis sees AK 2
