TR Altay Main Battle Tank & Related Programs

"4 production lines and 4MBT per month" I remember it somewhere from television. I might be wrong.

4x4=16. That is fantastic capability and capacity.

I think I am mistaken. Forget about it.

There hasn't been any news about MZK turret since that first video, right?

I don't think so

I don't think so

Damn, I was really hoping we would hear something by now, even if they didn't start integrating them right now. If we're going to continue abusing, sorry, using those poor old M60s we really need that turret and all other upgrades we can slap on them.

It will enter service in 18 months brother.

I didn't hear that from some time. I am relieved now.

This is the ultimate answer. The answer of answers to all questions

When that happens.... Cifte telli atacam...

Yeah but what about the "qualification tests". Unlike Otokar's prototypes we haven't seen any visual, video or anything such from BMC's. Many people even doubt if it is a made-from-scratch prototype.

18 month is a meme

This engine sounds great

Revolution on the battlefield!

Developed with domestic and national resources, the 120mm tank mortar weapon system, which can fire both sight and blind, is the first and only in the world with its ability to fire MOD 300 tank destroyer and MOD 308 mortar ammunition!

How useful is it to use a tank barrel for mortar duty?

How useful is it to use a tank barrel for mortar duty?

It does not have to use as mortar duty, enemy in trench or behind a building spread.

Fuat Tosyalı, Chairman of Tosyalı Holding and BMC, answered questions at the SAHA EXPO International Defense, Aviation, and Space Industry Fair held at the Istanbul Fair Center.

“WE ARE IN THE SERIES PRODUCTION STAGE FOR THE TANK”

Emphasizing that the ALTAY power group is very special, Tosyalı provided the following information: “Only 6 or 7 countries in the world can produce this. We are one of them. We have produced our engine, which is currently undergoing intensive testing at the test center. Last year, we delivered our first two tanks. Our Land Forces are testing them, and they have passed all test phases without any issues. Now we are in the series production stage. Our investment in the tank factory in Ankara is also progressing at full speed. By the end of next year, both our tank factory will be completed with all their units and the first tanks will be delivered to our forces.” Tosyalı noted that until the testing phases of their own power groups are completed, the first tanks will feature Korean power groups.

“WE CAN DEVELOP AND ADAPT TO ALL DEMANDS COMING FROM THE FIELD”

Recalling that when they delivered the ALTAY tank last year, they announced it as the New ALTAY tank, Tosyalı pointed out that the tank was originally designed based on field conditions from 10 years ago.

Highlighting that the battlefield now requires more advanced equipment, Tosyalı stated, “The only resemblance between the New ALTAY tank and the first ALTAY tank is external. The electronic capabilities and satellite ground connections are completely up-to-date, even beyond current standards. In other words, all possible future technologies are present in our New ALTAY tank. We are in close contact with our forces. We can develop and adapt to all demands coming from the field.”
