Al-Khalid tank (Type 90-IIM / MBT-2000) Information Pool

For those who may think that alkhalid has less protection, read this.

The composite protection block is around 550-620mm

Back plate of the composite module is between 150-200mm.

AORAK ERA or external composite layers add another 150-300mm.

Thats almost 1150mm frontal protection from APFSDS round only. For HEAT rounds, it goes around 1250-1300mm.

A more than decent protection against any modern antitank threat being used in the world. This includes both 125 and 120mm caliber ammo.

Its quite sad that you guys could not deliver the order in time. They went for the v t-4 instead which is quite a capable piece of hardware.

Pakistan also has reservations about Malashev's ability to deliver the order if one is placed.

Share your opinion on this.

I kind of know a little bit just want to confirm ....... whats the notion with "in time" .... I mean to say whats the hurry?

At IDEAS 2016, the Colonel Rizwan Rasul from Heavy Industries Taxila has announced the development of a new version of the Pakistani-made main battle tank (MBT) Al-Khalid. Currently the Al-Khalid 1, the second generation of this tank is the backbone of the Pakistani Armed Forces.
According our exclusive video interview with the Colonel Rizwan Rasul, Director Budget, Marketing & Procurement for Heavy Industries Taxila, the upgraded main battle tank Al Khalid 2 will become one of the most modern main battle tank available in the military market offering high mobility, more firepower and protection compared to the current version of the Al Khalid.
The new Al-Khalid 2 will be motorized with a more powerful diesel engine developing 1,500 hp. to replace the current Ukrainian-made 6TD-2 liquid-cooled diesel engine, designed by the Kharkiv Morozov Design Bureau (KMDB).
The new Al-Khalid will receive a new armour package to increase protection against the new tank ammunition and anti-tank guided missile and rockets. The Al Khalid 1 is protected with Explosive Reactive Armour (ERA) bricks for added protection. ERA bricks cover the turret front, roof, sides and hull glacis.
The Al-Kalid 2 armour package could include an improved armour protection over the frontal arc, sides and turret. Slat armour could be used to complete the new armour package, which is now implemented to many new combat vehicles designed to protect against anti-tank rocket-propelled grenade (RPG) attacks especially during combat in urban zones.
The Turkish Company Aselsan also offers its experience in the upgrade of main battle tank to fitted the Al-Khalid 2 MBT with latest generation of electronic systems, fire control, electro-optic systems and communication.
According, the Colonel Rizwan Rasul the Al Khalid 2 will keep the same armament which includes a 125 mm smoothbore, auto-frettaged and chrome-plated gun barrel which can fire APFSDS, HEAT-FS and HE-FS conventional ammunition and the Russian-designed 9M119 Refleks ATGM (AT-11 Sniper, produced in China under license). The standard 12.7mm machine gun mounted on the turret could be replaced by a remotely operated weapon station.

The remote controlled weapon system on its turret already exists.. It was developed along with the tank... Most likely they may replace it with another.

I wish to see Roketsan developing Armor for Al Khalid series.
This company is also responsible for development of Altay MBT armor package.

Fella,
Tell bit about Panoramic sight of Al Khalid. Is it French origin?
And its comparison with that of T90 & T80...........
T90MS & OplotM have multi purpose sight for Gunner as well as commander. Which I guess Al Khalid lack as far as commander sight goes.

all three have multipurpose sights. t-90 pre MS and t-80 pre Oplot m versions lack proper panoramic sights. Both tanks lack in true hunter killer and multiprocess fire control which the Alkhalid versions have.

The panoramic sight is hybrid tech, I.e. french and local
