Norinco VT-4 MBT

[TeesraIndiotHunter]

Al Khalid-Is, Al Khalid-IIs, Al-Zarrars, T-80UDs are the core of Pakistan Ground Force's tank corps.

Pakistan has hundreds of T-59s, T-69s, Type 85s etc etc that it needs to retire and replace them with something else.

I guess this is where advance Chinese tanks come in.

Type 3000 MBT and VT-4 MBT of China are very capable third generation tanks..and Pakistan Army is looking into these guys. If selected, these tanks will replace our older tanks like T-69s etc.

Pakistan's tank force consisting of Al Khalid-1, Al Khalid-IIs, Type-3000s/VT-4s, Al-Zarrars, and upgraded T-80UD will be one of the strongest in the world!

But confusion is still there weather this is AL KHALID II or that is different Tank ?

If VT-4 price cheap, it will be new SuperStar in World Tank Market.

VT-4 (MBT-3000) better than current PLA ZTZ96A, as same as chassis of latest ZTZ99A2 (1,500hp) but lower power maybe 1,000hp ~ 1,200hp tank engine. A 125mm gun.

West quality, China price

I think the 1500hp tank engine is approved for export and is now install in VT-4. Rumour is the new 1650hp domestic engine is just ready for mass produce and will ensure the new ZTZ99A2 with thicker and higher turret will have same performance even with supposed increase weight as opposed to 1500hp engine.

If VT-4 is still using 1200hp engine, it will not able to get export order.

If im right, PLA won't export current military equipment including ZTZ99A2's 1,500hp tank engine. But 1,200hp tank engine is OKay.

MBT series is already a JV.

P.S: AK-II is under development at HIT and will be powered by a 1500 hp engine from Ukraine or EU.along with 10 major modifications.. Namely in armour/protection,firepowe,mobility etc..

High configuration MBT3000 has a 1500hp electrically adjustable engine

As an export model, it has four versions, 1200HP diesel engine，1360HP diesel engine, 1500HP diesel engine and 1500HP gas turbine for different customers，and the price correspondingly increase.

I think mods off this forum should try to confirm news off tests from Army because there is serious confusion @Horus @Oscar @Fulcrum15
