    Do you know what happened to a friend of mine because of that? He served in prison. No joke. He beat the man who slapped his wife or girlfriend I don't remember. The guy fainted and is hospitalized with a broken nose and one of his front teeth broken. His wife/GF witnessed against my friend in...

    M-60TM is a further upgrade of the SABRA Tank. Basically, an up-to-date upgrade of M-60T SABRAs. On top of that we are replacing every fire control system on SABRA tanks. https://www.defenceturk.net/m60t-tanklarina-yerli-ve-milli-atis-kontrol-sistemi-volkan-m If we upgrade M-60A3 with...

    No. I'm talking about something like Tulpar with add-on armor. That is over 40 tonnes in weight. A real tracked heavy IFV. A part of the 2900+ vehicles will consist of tracked heavy IFVs I don't know how many. Those will be similar to German Puma...

    We are not talking about old M-60s here. We are talking about a SABRA level upgrade. Sabra can withstand hits from ATGMs. SABRA protected its crew many times with its add-on armor. I don't think a medium tank can take a hit from an ATGM and its crew survives to tell the tale.

    No decision on that yet and I don't think upgrading all M-60s is logical .M-60TM weighs 56 tonnes while medium tanks weigh 35-40tonnes. M-60TM can be classified as a heavy tank. We also need to design a new turret for the medium tank because Cockerill doesn't sell us their turrets. Turret of the...

    AKP wants to turn Turkiye into a multicultural ummah with a light sharia rule governed by a Caliph. Things were going really well on that front until PKK wanted independence (PKK was emboldened by the peace process, AKP accepted PKK autonomy in peace process talks but PKK wanted everything just...

    Well, the references section speaks for itself. It seems like HST will be responsible for the production of the power pack or at least the transmission part. X1100-5A4 transmission can be coupled with engines up to 1500HP and can be used for vehicles up to 63.5 tonnes.

    That number includes all the different types of batteries that will be produced in the battery factory. We don't know how much of that is li-ion production. Anyway, TR will emerge as a huge battery producer after current investments start bearing fruits.
