hope
Ukraine will also send their best
T-84 Oplot-M
for testing and evaluation



 
Why are we not concentrating on producing Al-Khalid series tanks? Eventually, they will be top of the line and it takes time. You have to start somewhere. First we had news about T-55 junk and now T-85s. Shame we never learn to develop OUR own industries.

If we look at Christendom armies like USA, their mbt is Abrahm, Britaniya is Challenger, Garmany is Lepard.

Which idiot told you we aren't work is on and new AK will arrive in few months as for that old T-55 and T-85 they are for different roles. T-55 mainly for western border and protection of cpec route

I think you misunderstood my post. I said, why are we not CONCENTRATING 100% on Al-Khalid ONLY?

We are buying the T-55 and T-85 because they are CHEAP and cheerful. The AK is more expensive, the crew deserve the best we can offer.

I'm just airing my opinion not as if anything will change.

That is because Pakistan since creation never depends one Tank we prefer different Tanks. AK is one of our major Tanks mainly for Desert area as for T-85 and other they are for other roles.
 
Any member can post comparison of T84 oplot , AK 2 , and MBT 3000. It would be highly appreciated .

MBT3000 and AK2 are presumably similar. AKA Al-Hyder Which according to some, has been cancelled. However that is not the case, PA is still seeking to induct Ak-Hyder along side the new T-84s.
