Altay & Turkish Main Battle Tank Programs


Ok.
Altay will have an indigenous Borium Carbide reinforced armor, that's a secret as the armor of the Leopard.

To date, few Chobham armour-protected tanks have been defeated by enemy fire in combat; the relevance of individual cases of lost tanks for determining the protective qualities of Chobham armour is difficult to ascertain as the extent to which such tanks are protected by ceramic modules is undisclosed.

During the second Iraq war in 2003, a Challenger 2 tank became stuck in a ditch while fighting in Basra against Iraqi forces. The crew remained safe inside for many hours, the composite Chobham 2 armour protecting them from enemy fire, including rocket propelled grenades.
 
I can't wait until these beasts are unleashed against the scum in the South east. The iron fist of the Turkish Land Forces.

Altay tanks are designed for conventional warfare, not fighting militants and IED's in urban and mountainous areas. Therefore, it would just be risking high tech tanks for a job m60's also can do. Not worth it

The M-60 can easyly be knock out even by the simplest Variants of RPG-7. ISIS, PYD & other have far more advanced AT Weapons than RPG-7, need more advanced armour and this mean MBT active Protections Systems !
 
Hi, im new and this is my first comment.
Can Akkor also counter RPG-30 ? Which has a precursor dart to bypass active protection systems ?
