HIT rebuilt a tank by modifying 50 features of the old T-59. It incorporated some of the HIT's systems, originally developed for the Al-Khalid MBT.
 
K2 Black Panther

Currently the K2 is one of the most advanced main battle tank in the world, outclassing anything North Korea or China have. Furthermore it is the most expensive main battle tank to date, overtaking the Japanese Type 90 MBT.

Protection of the K2 is broadly similar to the M1A2 Abrams MBT considering that the K2 is significantly lighter.. It is worth mentioning that autoloader's is similar to that, used on the French Leclerc main battle tank.Turkey has successfully negotiated import or license production of the K2. The new Turkish Altay MBT will use some technologies of the K2 Black Panther MBT.
