  1. Just in case of Best Korea infantry zerg rush.
  2. The reactive armor that protects the bustle sides of the Leclerc SXXI is being upgraded with new reactive kits : As part of the Leclerc modernization, the 8th RMAT Materiel Regiment and the 12th Cuirassier armoured cavalry Regiment have been appointed for the fitting of reactive armor kits on 12 Leclerc tanks.

  3. This could have been worse without the lessons learned from Saif Sareea 2 exercise.
  4. Was the Kronach Lorin coal-powered ramjet engine a viable concept ? I mean, just heating some pelletized coal in a pierced basket would have been sufficient to produce a coherent thrust ?
  5. Now that its protection level has been finally revealed, I'm curious about the Osório.
  6. What a strange idea to re-use the designation of an old APFSDS from the 1970s. Does the M325 HEAT-MP-T has pop-out fins ?
  7. The AMX-40 was the first French MBT to feature NERA (a.k.a PAC in French ; shock-accelerated plates) :
  8. I expressed myself poorly, I was referring to the unknown model of ERA.
  9. This information comes from the writings of Marc Chassillan.
  10. All Merkava models are made of rolled armor plates produced by Creusot-Loire Industrie (now Industeel). What about the M735 versus the NATO Heavy Single target ? The Kornet can also be recognized by its lack of visible tail flare and its rather smooth in-flight trajectory.
  11. Video on the story of the little-known Vickers Mk. 4 (a.k.a Valiant) MBT with some exclusive photos :
  12. Does anyone know if it is possible to find the 1954-1965 back issues of the ARMOR magazine online ?
  13. The Merkava Mk. 3 were built in a series of at least three production blocks.
  14. It's likely a Block III on the two lower pictures.
  15. I guess they retained the stowage space on the right side of the driver, putting the 15 rounds on his left.
