    @Ramlaen 6 proposals now. https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2021/04/26/2216925/0/en/Point-Blank-Enterprises-Company-Submits-Proposal-for-the-Concept-Design-of-the-Optionally-Manned-Fighting-Vehicle-for-the-U-S-Army.html

    How so? They're developing a unique variant of the Lynx and involving some of the biggest defense contractors around for their bid.
  3. Clan_Ghost_Bear
    It appears to be the updated Bradley chassis they showed off in 2016, judging by the position of the headlights. Still hard to see this competing with the Lynx or another clean-sheet design.

    BAE's OMFV bid. https://twitter.com/BAESystemsInc/status/1382702789034438666

    It wasn't cancelled, in fact the initial digital designs are due this Friday.

    The Lynx will, if selected by the Army, have an electric drive from Allison. https://www.allisontransmission.com/company/news-article/!details/2021/02/16/allison-transmission-partners-with-american-rheinmetall-vehicles-to-produce-the-propulsion-system-for-lynx-omfv-offering

    Challenger 2 Owner's Workshop Manual from Haynes

    I believe that is the wheeled prototype for the Future Combat Systems program, which ended up losing to the tracked variant.
  10. Clan_Ghost_Bear
    Don't think there's any indication of that other than this dude saying so with no source on twitter.

    New North Korean tank, from their parade.

    At about 32 seconds in, you can see the Lynx being shown to the Army has 7 roadwheels per side, rather than 6.

    2 Leopard 2A4s (One of which came in first) and 2 2A6 from Greece, along with the Abrams. https://veteranos.gr/protefse-o-oulamos-tis-chchi-ttht-ston-diagonismo-armaton-tank-challenge-2020/

    Something similar to the SETC, but with Greece only. The US unit took 2nd place. https://www.defence-point.gr/news/oriaka-alla-mprosta-apo-ton-us-army-ellinikos-oylamos-armaton-tis-211-ema-foto

    Clearer image of the TARDEC Abrams replacement that came out some time ago.

    Maybe it has a secondary ammo storage in the rear hull, that replenishes the bustle magazine? It's what they did with the M1 CATTB.
  17. Clan_Ghost_Bear
    It seems many people are forever stuck in 2012 when it comes to talking about the F-35.
  18. Clan_Ghost_Bear
    Which requirement do you feel is too difficult? They dropped the airlift requirement from 2 per C-17 to 1.
  19. Clan_Ghost_Bear
    I'd assume from Argentina being flat broke, or is it something different?

    Any chance of them going with the EMBT?
  23. Clan_Ghost_Bear
    Seems silly to completely ditch tanks. What happened to the Marine MPF buy?
  24. Clan_Ghost_Bear
    http://www.sgex.eb.mil.br/sistemas/be/copiar.php?codarquivo=976&act=sep These are (supposedly) Brazil's requirements for a new MBT.
