So no factory till 2026. What can I say, great?
Considering that even the Korean engined Altay wont enter production before 2024-25, we can actually say that there is still time for investment
So no factory till 2026. What can I say, great?
Germany can spend whatever it likes. Germany will probably pay 30 million euros for a UAV like TB2 if Germans companies develop it.
Why?BTW we can kiss goodbye to the Altay factory and tank excellence center. As the new admin of BMC made clear they won't be investing in a new factory. BMC is demolishing the Karasu tank factory construction field.
The factory field is a flood land and may not be very well suited to heavy industries among other things.Why?
Well, it seems incompetent dimwits oddly didn't make any feasibility study to check the land is suitable or not before the construction of such factory, so it's not a suitable area to construct factory. Or it's just a lame excuse.Why?
there's a limit to the amount of APS that a tank can carry. just make sure you can win the attrition war, and the APS problem will sort itself out.how to defeat APS.
There are rumours of Russian Afghanit being able to stop Depleted Uranium tipped Sabot rounds. But like with most Russian stuff it needs to be seen to be believed.Akkor is capable to reduce effects of an penetrator rod, with its large blast filled with tungsten fragments capable of shattering rods and or cause a rod to veer off trajectory/ cause tumbling.
A layered APS system would be best, Akkor and Pulat combined solution. Would be a beast.

Trophy developers are still trying on the case of sabot defence. But they accept that it is very challenging to stop a 4-5 Mach Sabot as explained in below Janes Defence article.
An HVP round however, would be travelling at 7+Mach and would be more of a challenge to track and stop especially if it is a top attack class round .IAV 2021: Rafael details challenges of defeating APFSDS long rod penetrators with APS
Defeating advanced anti-armour rounds with active protection systems (APSs) would mark a step change in vehicle defences, but such technology must still overcome notable...www.janes.com
There are trials using consecutive rounds fired at a tank , first one being a dummy and the second being the real tank killer. So as APS s become more and more capable the weapons become smarter as well.
Akkor being developed so that it is having a capability like you explain is nice to hear. May be, that is why it is still not finished and integrated in to any of our tanks.
Was Zaslon a project that was never implemented on UA tanks?Just relaying on kinetic penetrators, you all seem to neglect the role of man portable ATGMs.
İmagine what would Ukraine do, if most of their tanks had APS?
APSs of Greek,Israel, YS armies make our shoulder launched ATGMs useless, can you notice the big threat?
Need to have some EMP weapons even compact ones.
İ haven't heard and seen.Was Zaslon a project that was never implemented on UA tanks?
