    I don’t know why but it smells like the NH90.
  4. Serge
    CV90 is the lightest contender.

    Textron may have formed a team of its own. Both GDLS and SAIK contracts were devoted to technology demonstrators. Here, we can see something Textron can reach without help. A dedicated page is opened on there site. https://www.textronsystems.com/capabilities/innovations/cottonmouth Been the first to announce something about the ARV can be a pressure to save the whole programme regarding the changes into the USMC.

    The Cottonmouth ARV, the Textron’s bid for the USMC.

    And this light tank must be under 25 t. I can’t wait to see the DRDO proposal.

    Cv90 still on track for the Czech Republic ?

    I don’t know why but I think Nexter knows its job. They are serious in tank barrel and ammo.

    ASCALON is a general tank ammunition devoted concept. Everybody is talking about the 140mm because nobody’s giving attention to the NEXTER press release. ASCALON can be offer in whatever calibre the customer wants. So the point now is to determine the optimum one. It can be 130, 140, 133 or any other figure. Let us remind the beginning of the French CTA. It started at 45mm. It was reduced to 40mm and it’s still a CTA. So, the main point to take into account is the French analysis : « more powerful than today’s 120mm can no more be off a classical design. » « Rheinmetall 130mm is doomed ». It means too « the 140mm FTMA can’t be a solution ». The French communication around the 140mm FTMA was made to save time against a premature decision in favor of the German 130mm. The battle for the next NATO standard is juste starting. It will be bloody. And at last, ASCALON is by no means a CTA design. It’s closer to a Supershot one.

    What is the foreseeable future of M48A3K ? Is there any successor ? The K21-105 ?
  14. Serge
    Yes. Spike LR2 is said to have problems.
  15. Serge
    KF41 can reach 8 dismounts. They just have to ask for.
  16. Serge
    If I remind me well : - KF41 seats are from Schroth ; - AS21 seats are from Mobius.
  17. Serge
    In my memory, it was clear. The MCCC is calling for : - required 6 dismounts ; - desired 8 dismounts.
  18. Serge
    Smart I better understand. thank you.

    Better balance of the turret.
  24. Serge
    You’re right.
  25. Serge
    Great. So, both Ofek, are they Mk-2 or Mk-3 based ?
