Very easy. You just search

T-72MP (for export, from late 90s) with 6TD-1 engine.
 
   T-72MP was joint French-Czech-Ukrainian project of T-72 modernisation, offered for export. First time it was shown in 1997 in Czech republic. Ukrainian ERA and engine, French optics and Czech company Bohemia was to put all that together.
   Equipped with SAVAN 15MP sight by SAGEM and the panoramic sight by another French company SFIM, 1000 hp engine, soft-kill APS Varta (Shtora, basically).

I'm guessing the awkward placement is because it's being built around a new turret shape. E.g:


 
And the extra armour on the glacis will also act as a support brace for the lower glacis armour array.

Isn’t that the one and only Jackson?

Round #2 was won by Leclerc:
 
 

Secondarily, I don't know if this video has ever been posted here but I came across it recently.

i'm only about turret, mantlet is simple 50mm RHA(or even less) + rotor(cradle) which can't be much thciker than 200-250mm
 

 

 

 

 
those "v" shaped weldments on mantlet also strange...
 

 

 

 
 

(Removed)
 
A questionable person has yet again thrown out some photos and schematics.
Measurements are far from accurate (in the hundreds of mm).
 
Utilizing a more realistic and accurate estimation and utilizing the true length of the L94 barrel (703mm), the armor is around 500-550mm LOS at most, considering the air gap between the yellow and blue pieces is equal in size to the yellow block (As shown in photo below), can be around 200, it leaves only approx. 300mm of LOS remaining for the blue piece due to the barrel length.
 
Also noting that the usage of a cylinder for the elevation rotor/gear instead of a regular trunnion, the thickness will vary and usually decrease depending on the height at which you measure from, being the thickest possible in the middle (Around the longitude of the coax barrel) while getting much thinner the higher or lower of that midpoint. Not only this but if the rotor pins continue through the rotor, it leaves a susceptibility of damage/jamming of the elevation gear in general, let alone that more than half of the construction utilizes regular RHA, heat/energy from a projectile can be a problem.

CR2's failure should have shown Britain that their procurement was flawed. 
Nimrod's failure should have shown that.
Warrior failing officially but not Ajax should have sparked a lot of eyebrows being raised.
 
CR1's inadequate performance should have shown that.
 
What's Ajax gonna do? All the MoD is going to do now is to play victim like they always did and wait until the heat dies off and do it again.
 
They're dumb, and it's fun to watch.

Doggy.

Under careful consideration in the House of commons defense committee and MoD, we've determined to modify the Challenger 3 program to instead opt for an 'off the junk yard' choice MBT in which we will then scrap all 408 built CR2 turrets and put a readily available, refurbished centurion and chieftain turrets onto the hulls and modify them to carry anti tank equipment and APS to handle the current and future threats.
 
Note: current and future threats is in the span from the 1960's through 1980s threats.
