Jos o mogucoj prodaju Leclerca Arapima, izgleda da ce birati izmedju jos Leopard 2 i Leclerca i turskog Altay. Kazu da su se Francuzi dobro pokazali u rukama UAE u operacijama u Jemenu, spominju 9 pogodjenih, jedan unisten.
Stigle ponude za modernizaciju britanskih Chelendzera, ali i dalje smanjenje brojnog stanja
Citat:The British Army's Challenger 2 fleet has already been reduced to three regiments, each of which would have a wartime holding of 56 MBTs. Of these three regiments only one is ready for immediate deployment and on a day-to-day basis has just one squadron of 18 Challenger 2s plus two spare.
While the British Army took delivery of 386 Challenger 2s, this is currently being reduced to 227 units to equip the three regiments and provide vehicles for training in Canada and the UK.
However, although each of the British Army's three armoured infantry brigades would have one Challenger 2 regiment, under the 2015 Strategic Defence and Security Review (SDSR) the number of armoured infantry brigades is to be reduced to two. Two new strike brigades are to be formed, but these would not have a Challenger 2 regiment, meaning that the British Army's Challenger 2 fleet will be reduced even further to around 150-160 units. This would make the UK's MBT force smaller those of France and Germany, with the latter already expanding its frontline strength from a baseline of 225 Leopard 2A6 MBTs.
bojank ::jazbar ::Iran završio razvoj novog tenka Karrar (ili je to ime za Zulfiqar 3). Verovatno su time odustali od nabave ruskog T-90 makar u večem broju...
Toliko toga kupuju da moraju malo hvaliti sopstvene mogućnosti. Verovatno će uzeti T-90. Velika je zemlja pa mogu dogovoriti sklapanje i otvaranje remontnog centra. Ne verujem da ovaj tenk mogu proizvoditi tempom kojim bi im se isporučivali novi T-90 i kompleti za sklapanje.
