Better to use ERA like Ukrainian Duplex.

Pakistan has reportedly built ERA based on NOZH reactive armour. Nozh is effective against tandem warhead missiles and kinect rounds. Nozh is Ukrainian of origin, hence could get more advanced duplex.

AK already uses indigenous Aorak MK.2 which is based off Nozh and FY-3. Duplet is basically stacked And differently shaped Nozh, the basic thing is the same. AK and AK-1 use dual-stacked Aorak Mk.2, if it is anything similar to Nozh then it is very good, if it’s closer to FY-3 it’s still pretty decent.

Does anyone have a picture of Laser Warning receivers mounted on AK/AK-1 (as in actually on the tank.)
They are supposedly located behind the 12.7mm gun (which makes no sense, but still.)
Because it’s supposed to have a LWR but they’re not visible anywhere on the turret.

its from GIDS name LTS-786P (Laser Threat Sensor)

Thanks a lot.
Kinda hard to tell if it’s an LWR or not though.

@HRK @Dazzler AK and VT4 use armored ammo bins for ammo storage, are these for ready ammo, stored ammo or both? Thank you in advance.

I will excuse myself to answer this question as I don't have any source available to back up my understanding that in AK it is for both ....

No worries sir. Thanks a lot for taking the time to response. I’m sure Sir dazzler will tell me eventually.

Ready ammo.

T-64A manufacture, automatic welding from 8 minute

Recent addition to HIT, not the world.

What is production rate of AK 1

Around 35 at the moment, but is increasing n soon will hit 50

The AK uses French ESM-500 transmission with 5 forward and 2 reverse gears. The P2 prototype used this trans with a western engine. The P3 prototype with the Ukrainian 6TD-2 had its own transmission with 7 forward and 4 reverse gears. Why was the French tans picked over the Ukrainian one? (Some people still claim it uses the Ukrainian one). Also, if available, what is the reverse speed of the AK series?

How accurate is this analysis, as it claims the trans is not the French one but the Ukrainian one.

@Dazzler ^ , thank you and sorry for the repeated tags.

Perhaps it was chosen because of reliability?

Are they being used to replace t59/69s or to raise new regts?

Type 59s still being upgraded to AZs I believe, in total we will have a 1000 when the upgrades complete with over 800 done already. The rest will likely be retired/put in storage. Not sure how long the Type 69s will stay. I believe VT4s will be replacing them.
