TR Altay Main Battle Tank & Related Programs

[TR_123456]

1 - İsrael ( war for syria control or oil/gas around cyprus & Med )
2 - İran - iraq ( future geo-politics can completely change , we can be at war with 150+ million irani- kurdi - iraqi alliance )
3 - Russia ( İf they advance in full war in balkans
4 - Greece
5 - Grecce + EU ( War for gas/oil in Med, Grecce can bring EU Like france and attacks us ....

1 - not in a million years,we are not Iran,Syria,Lebanon or the GCC countries.
2 - they cant,even if the Mullahs would start it the armies(Iran and Iraq) would surrender after some losses.
3 - If Russia wants a war with us it will come via the caucasus but Russia cant afford a war against us,the economic and military losses would be tenfold of the war in Ukraine.
4 - not logical,no power to even try anything.
5 - Europe is not stupid.

BMC could have produced the Batu powerpack faster, but the transmission part was delayed around nine months, so it slipped to Q4 2026/Q1 2027. Currently, endurance tests are continuing on the BATU prototype. Being serial production-ready is one thing, and actually getting the product with the BATU powerpack is another. Endurance tests might take 2 years, so even though BMC can be ready for production in Q4 2026, the first tank with BATU might be delivered in 2028.

And yet, we need to be ready for all these situations.

It's always better to have more tanks or any other military stuff than having not enough.

Yes,we need to be ready but not with just numbers.
We need to have full combat ready systems/platforms with fully trained combat ready personnel.
Having more tanks without trained personnel is a waste of recources.

I never said not to have combat ready and fully trained personnel. My point was specifically meant on numbers for any military equipment.

And one thing is for sure, if we want to win wars "as easy as possible" then we need massive amounts of everything. No ifs and buts.

Looks like they only produced two so far and the third one is still waiting for the wedding

Some people just are paranoid. 1000 tanks in these times are overkill. Sure we should have the capacity to do so if needed, keep a level strategic stock of ressources, but we dont need to be wasteful.

Your whole points are almost false.

Yes, 1000 pieces are way too much. We are not in a full out war. We need fast attack vehicles (IFV) like TULPAR in different configurations.

 

[Huelague]

Altay’s fire rate is about 6 rounds per minute, and it currently uses the Hyundai-Doosan (Korean) engine and transmission, not the Batu yet.

I am asking because I hate our defense experts statements like, “our tank is the best” or under the 3 “best” tanks in the world.

 

[UkroTurk]

Yes, 1000 pieces are way too much. We are not in a full out war. We need fast attack vehicles (IFV) like TULPAR in different configurations.

We already have got enough wheeled and tracked gun carrier vehicles with ATGMs.
Also Turkish UAVs brought new era in combat.
No worries, biting us would be very painful.

 

[AlperTunga]

Against Israel, Greece. And to invade Iran and even against Russia in a land war in Caucasus. I am dead serious.

So,name a possible enemy against whom we need a thousand tanks?

12. ALTAY Tank hull production line:
• Domestic production robots are working on the ALTAY Tank
• Industrial robot-based new generation production technologies are being utilized to meet the high mine and ballistic performance requirements of the ALTAY Tank and ALTUĞ 8x8 new generation armored vehicles and to seamlessly perform tank hull welding
• Approximately 85% of the fully penetrated welding areas are welded by welding robots
• Since the transition to serial production, the 12th ALTAY Tank hull has been added to the welding production line at the facility, which covers 3 halls and houses 8 welding robot lines
