Why do they bother with developing such a state of the art MBT, if you they are gonna leave some parts of it vulnerable? Sideskirts are crucial for a MBT, they should add them no matter how heavy they are. Even adding simple steel plates (which have limited protection) is better than having no...

Does anyone know why they don't add long sideskirts to Altay? Even the first concept has very short sideskirts (looks like i can't add links yet), and the prototypes have no side skirts at all.
