[Pakistani Fighter]

Long way to go. There is panic across the border on the news of PA acquiring vt-4.

Sir I think Order of 464 T90s and 118 Arjun MK1As was the reaction of PA procuring VT-4s

Interesting details of GL-5 APS

Active protection complex "Raptor" (GL-5). The destruction of attacking ATGMs and heavier tactical missiles is carried out by specialized small-sized ultra-short-range anti-missiles, the launch of which is carried out by target designation of a small multifunctional radar operating in the Ka-band of millimeter waves.

BTW there was the news of Indian Tanks to have Trophy System

Trophy ran into trouble.

Order of additional mbts was placed prior to vt-4.

What are we looking at, anything makes it different than other APS?

They should, they will make great trophies. One them broke down during big parade in Russia.

T-14 in parade didn't break down. It was shown that it was driver error because the new tank was so unfamiliar with the crew and complex systems sometimes cause confusion even if training has been provided. The tank drive off afterwards I remember seeing.

Fires two missiles at the incoming threat instead of one as is the case with most APS systems.

 

[Gryphon]

Any idea who is receiving this lot of VT4s?

First image is actually from a tank simulator called armored warfare. It also has alkhalid base variant in it for simulation.

As per news is past Pakistan will get 580 to 600 new MBTs, as VT4 order news its around 300.
So guys which other tank plateform will fill this gap,
Alkahlid slow production rate can only add 30 to max 50 in next few years.
Exports gap of 200 plus tanks exits that can totaly add option to have any other plateform like T90M , optus etc

If the off-the-shelf buy is for 600 new tanks, then in all likelihood, the Army will just buy another 200 VT4. That, or (as @Armchair suggested) it can look into used/mothballed T-80UDs from other countries.

Sir adding 200 or 250 more VT4 will increase inductions time ?
In case of these used T80UD can be from Ukraine or Russia
