If kaplan using 120 mm it will increse sale of kaplan of course heheheh
If turkey buy Kaplan and use it, so iy will increase of selling that fnss product world wide. Kaplan in 30 ton range maybe sufficient to use 120 mmWe have the following options:
IFV
Light & Medium tank
- Kaplan 20
- Kaplan 30
- Tulpar IFV
- Pars 6x6
- Pars 8x8
- Kaplan MMWT
- Tulpar Light Tank
I hope we purchase some of these. I think the light tanks would be awesome for fire support when capturing cities. If we can install APS and good reactive armor then these would be great additions to our land forces.
In my opinion the entire Kaplan series should be purchased and used in conjunction with each other for urban environments.
Then the Altay should be used in conjunction with the Tulpar for open battlefields. This is how it was intended to be by the way. The Tulpar was supposed to accompany the Altay.
Imagine this working together with the Kaplan MMWT:
Using 120 mm on 8x8 platform like italian Centauro IIInstead why don't we put 120mm guns on the Otokar or FNSS 8x8 APCs like the Japanese Type-16 Mobile Combat Vehicles? FFS, I know that I2m not a general or anything but sometimes I don't get the KKK doctrines...
Type-16
Stryker Mobile Gun System
There are many other examples of it. Instead of producing thousands of Altays to replace old tanks, why don't we produce 250-300 Altays, modernize Leo 2A4s and M-60TMs and replace the rest of our old tanks with these?
Otokar Arma 8x8 APC has a version with the 105mm gun turret, why don't we make a turret with a 120mm gun?
Remember the battlefield is changing fast nowadays, many countries not only just put 105 or 120mm guns but they also put ATGMs on them.
