  1. Video that also covers the XK-1 design and development:
  2. Talking about ballistic testing on Prototype/Pilot Vehicle 11 (PV 11), here is a video that mentions the testing of early pre-series M1 (XM1) tanks:
  3. Silly question: Will you have the chance to post the actual threats and results of the ballistic and blast tests (i.e. 1-7, A-F,etc.) ?
  4. Yes, it seems to be the DM43 used on the Rh-120-44. Is there a better copy of the full page of this document available ?
  5. "An attempt at straightening out, the all present and popular myth about the Challenger 2 MBT surviving 70 RPG hits, nothing more, nothing less. For some context, Challenger 2 is a British main battle tank developed in the 1990s that earned itself quite a legendary reputation for survivability, as mentioned above. But the reality of it is that while Challenger 2 performed well, it was nowhere near the level presented in the commonly told story. It also is worth to spread around that the operation to recover Challenger 2 from the video wasn't easy, and the guys from REME deserve recognition for what they did, which they sadly do not get in the famous retelling spread around the net, which basically disregards their involvement." - Volke
  6. IMHO, looks like some artillery HE to me.
  7. No, you are totally wrong! It is a stylized Wehrmacht "Balkenkreuz" of the German Wehrmacht's YouTube channel. Evidence (see number 5): I am surprised that you of all people would get this one wrong.
  8. Hyundai Rotem has registered two types of K2 Black Panther main battle tanks with the Korean Intellectual Property Office KIPO. The first type is likely to be a variant of K2PL for Poland. Second type without hard APS could be an export variant for another international customer.
  9. I did not know the K2 was inspired by the German Leopard 2 when it uses a flat turret design with an auto-loader (like the Leclerc), a hull with ISUs, driver on the left (Like the Leclerc), ERA modules on hull and turret,etc..
  10. Why do you think the Leopard 2 is the better choice ?
  11. "...They said they were interested but the US offered a delivery date only after 2030." Why would it take GDLS so long to potentially deliver these vehicles so late ?
  12. Yeah, I saw those! Given what came out in recent years from multiple sources, it should not be too hard to figure out in what range these values could operate.
