Bangladesh T96G?

[ProsperBD]

Bangladesh have bought the Type96G Main battle tanks.
I was hoping for more information on defence.pk, the admin of bdmilitary has said this.. Type 96G MBTs are modified to meet Bangladesh Army's requirements and so according to those requirements more powerful Ukrainian KMDB 6TD-2 6-cylinder diesel engines were purchased. Those powerpacks produce 1,200 hp (890 kW).-BDM1A1
check the bdmilitary forum for more information..

Do any Bangladeshi members no anything about this?

Well I've heard they received 9+- Type96G for testing and training purpose. Can't provide the source though. Anyways they'll replace the existing setup eventually within the next 6-7 yrs. Probably the type 59's will be replaced. There was a news that the army would go for Yatagan MBT but maybe they have opted for 96.

Edit: Apparently 100 type96g was ordered with ukranian engines but no confirmed source as usual

I have checked BDMIlitary Forum. Finally, everyone agreed that T96G is not to be procured, but its 6-cylinder 6DT diesel engines will be. T96G is very heavy at 41.5 ton and is not good for our terrain.

However, the 6DT engine is a work horse with an output of 120 hp or 89 kw. Less than 100 units will be bought and will be assembled in other older tanks that will become our MBTs, lightweight but equipped with powerful engines.

A tank of 41.5 tonnage is not that heavy, it falls in the same category of T-72 (41.5) and T-90(46.5). So what kind of tank is Bangladesh looking for?

Are you sure its only 120 HP?: even a corolla gt is more than that.

1200 HP

The type 96G is the primary main battle tank of the PLA and has some 2000-2500 in service. The type 99s are reserved for elite units and only around 500 are in service.

The type 96G approaches the baseline 99s in protection, firepower, mobility, and sensors.

Aint this ukrainian engine the same as used in Al-Khalid?

O! my bad that should provide some mighty acceleration provided the tank is light. In a flat terrain thats more desirable than heavy tanks.
