TR Altay Main Battle Tank & Related Programs

[BalkanTurk90]

Thats what I understood at first but if the production rate will be "1+1+2+4+8" per month each year(like 1st year 1 per month, second year the same, third year 2 per month etc), than 40 powerpack should feed the line for about 3 years unless I misunderstand it completely. Production will be much, much more slower than desired sure but there won't be a need for additional Korean powerpacks.(off course considering the BATU will be ready at 2028)

thats not per year but per month , it says it will be 8/month but at first when factory opens will be gradual invrease 1-1-2-4-8 with mean full capacity will reach 5 month after it is open . 8 per month still low number knowing Altay tank has 15 year delay ,we neeed to produce at leas 12 / month and no export for first 4-5 years .Giving full priority to TSK.
8/month mean 11 years to 1000 tanks or 2036 to finish

This Altay serial production business is some form of gimmickry to me.
Production is to start in 2025. But first tank will join inventory on 30th August. In fact in 2025 they are envisaging delivery of 3 tanks. (Pls read last paragraph of the below article)
So, 1-1-2-4-8 production speed per month won’t reach 8 per month until May/June 2026.
This is going to be a never ending saga.

Although many people believe that the age of MBTs are over, I don’t think we will see the end of tanks yet. Tanks are the driving force of any land assault unit. They will definitely change form though. Their protection system and armour will become even more substantial. Their use in the battlefield will be different. Certain stealth technologies may be applied to them.
To think that almost a million dollar Akkor system with its limited number of missiles, is going to be used against FPV drones is madness. (See below list) There will be other systems to eliminate those drones.
Just like stealth planes becoming the next norm in aerial warfare, tanks with different protection and assault systems will become the norm. They will not be the steel walls that were once used for protecting the infantry, anymore.

With the proliferation of ATGMs and various drones, tanks need to be changed and redesigned in a big way. With the rate we are going with our Altay production, we will be lucky if we can deliver the first 250 units before these changes become imperative. Before we even complete the delivery of the first batch, the need for redesigning Altay may be on the drawing board.
