TR Altay Main Battle Tank & Related Programs

I think that is the way tanks will go in the future, more like portable command bunkers rather than tank hunters / direct fire support. And, light and agile tanks that can hit and run hit and run with precision guided, longer range rounds.

Alpar would be great to use with, imo, Altay with unmanned turret, that way, the role of the loader could be replaced with drone controller. Or, when we can use UGVs with more autonomy commander could just, well, command the drones while they carry out the orders themselves.

Yeah, but i think we are far away from that. I mean is there even a tank with unmanned turret, which entered mass produtcion? AFAIK only a small batch of Armatas were produced until now.
IMO a MUM-T against asymmetric threats would be already a good start.

You're right about that, it is more next generation though they are coming closer and closer. And Alpar has 400 or 500 km range, that should be more than enough by itself.

I like the idea of mumt in general because that is the future of battlefields in general; small number of elite troops (or planes or ships you get the point) supported by big number of different unmanned systems. We have a chance to lead the way here.

The KKK wants heavy tanks, the boss gets what he wants.

KKK doesn't know what it wants.
