Yes because clearly 1 random video not showing 1 particular thing about a pure export tank model = tells everything about the tech between China and the West even though it doesn't!

Not 100% sure what you mean by mobility demo, but i guess this video of the VT-4 driving around will maybe atleast partly satisfy you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Video was posted on the previous page, autloader is basically same as T-72s\90s. VT-4 is export product, so not surprising. 15 hours ago, Serge said: No mobility demo.

MrMartin Posted August 16, 2017 Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 GL-5 active protection system is comprised of 4 detectors, 4 interceptors launchers & control terminal. Spoiler Zyklon and LoooSeR 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khand-e Posted August 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 Interesting note: the fact it shot down 2 full sized missiles at once actually demonstrates another design intention. That it can effectively counter "decoy" rockets and missiles like the RPG-30 which fires a smaller, inert warhead directly before firing the main warhead, the point of said design is to fool an APS with the dummy warhead and letting the main one pass through unchallenged. In this case, it would simply shoot both down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khand-e Posted August 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 More things. The wheeled assault vehicle/APC they talked about. I'll try to get better screenshots later but, 4x4 and 6x6 MRAP, the latter of which appears to be based on a heavily beefed up and modified WZ-551 hull. both rated to take 10kg of TNT (the 6x6 was tested on video with bionic replicas of people inside during one showing.)

Check the slow mo on the video, you can clearly see that another projectile explodes mid air after contacting the first interceptor a split second before the second, more visible missile is intercepted. (that or it was a decoy that was too small to really show up on video.) http://i.imgur.com/BuuLDnX.mp4 It was likely fired from a completely different angle making the projectile harder to see from the point of view of the camera, I'd assume to test the claimed 360 degree coverage.

Welp I guessed that it actually launched 2 interceptors at 1 missile...but yeah camera angle makes it pretty hard to see.

Khand-e Posted August 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2017 I mean, it was all shown on public video with announcers and demonstration personnel to interview and describe what was happening, I could have someone rewatch it and tell me exactly what it says, but, considering it's currently 3:30 in the morning in China, that may take a bit. Also my wife hates doing long translations so, best not to anger her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
