    It can be an Achzarit.
  2. Serge
    Yes. But if they don’t have money to improve both engine and running gear, they have not an other choice.
  3. Serge
    The problem with M60 is the turret size. It’s so large, it’s heavy to improve its protection. So, Sabra is not the choice.

    Chinese last light tank.

    In this article, Tamir is talking about the suspension too. He defenses the choice with plenty of details.

    This week-end if I can.

    Tamir Eshel. It was 72% if I remember well. He answered to the low horsepower per ton ratio generally considered about Merkava 3 when comparing to others tanks. He noted that there is a miss understanding because the mesure must be made at the sproket level, not the engine one. I think I still have this 20 years old article.

    Because of BREXIT, it can be longer. The MIV program is an advantage during talks. They can keep pressure on both Germany and France.

    You’re right. They’re different in the middle. Larger ? you know, the net is not for the « fan boys » effect. It’s like the paint covering new cars in test on roads.

    Just an up to date photo for the file consistency ;

    M8 is nearly a 30 years old plateforme, so ELT may have a few changes in its very design. I would find very strange if it was not the case. So, if I were the US Army, I would think : - Any engine improvement means endurance tests. - Any change to steel quality means balistic tests. - Band track means both running and structural tiring tests. - FCS improvement means firing test. - new welding technique means balistic and wear tests... The list is longer. So, the US Army won’t skip the intro but will read the full track. And meaby, others contenders will call for new test to provide up to date (and fare) datas.

    No. Yes. If not considering the Kaplan chassis to make the MMWT.
  24. Serge
    So, BAE did’t choose IFV chassis.
  25. Serge
    For the love of God, I hope BAE will develop a complete family of light tracked AFV.
