[@thirstyserpent1079]

The US is already entering the later stages of developing their new MBT to replace the abrams. There apparently were 4 design concepts, 3 of which were declassified while the 4th has had almost nothing replaced. The upgrades for the Abrams appear to be a life extension and capability upgrade to keep it on the battlefield for a time until it ends up in a similar position to the M60's.

[@Fred-eg9sx]

@@thirstyserpent1079 honestly I feel like they can keep upgrading the Abrams. The Abrams was designed to houses 140mm gun. And that was the in 80s. Upgrading existing or even a major over haul is still much cheaper than a new production line.

[@thirstyserpent1079]

@@Fred-eg9sx I feel it will have a similar life span to the b 52's etc reliable platforms that just keep going until there is a significant paradigm shift. The planned addition of active protection systems, electronic warfare packages, atgm's and possibly laser based systems to intercept projectiles amongst other things such as networked systems between different tanks or automated drone support to give advanced recon to the tank crews. This isn't even including the work the US is doing to finalize railguns in the navy and miniaturization attempts combined with fusion technology. so the possibility way down the line of something like an m1a4 that has essentially replaced the conventional cannon with a railgun spreads possibilities even more while also eliminating fuel logistic requirements due to an integrated fusion power plant.

[@nonyabisness6306]

Documentation is kinda meh, but I'm pretty sure that's the NPzK-140 cannon. a rheinmetall product that was later introduced to a joint upgrade program with france, uk and germany, when they debated upgrading firepower. it's very much part of the rheinmetall gun family, essentially and upgraded 120mm, whose development experience was used to make the upgraded 120mm and the "new" 130mm.

[@shadowdancerRFW]

When you decide to build a new MBT you have to start from scratch. You develop a new platform, based on the experiences of the past and also anticipating the future needs. Needless to say, this can be extremely expensive, which is why most countries prefer to just upgrade their already existent MBTs. Ok, you can develop a new type of shell, you can upgrade the CPU, you can install a modern APS, maybe a new engine etc. But it will still be the same tank, which will have most of the same restrictions and downsides. From this list, the russian T-14 is the only one which qualifies as a new MBT. It was tested several years, sure, but it has so many advantages over any existing MBT.

[@Micha-qv5uf]

German French MGCS will also be a completely new design. But yea it hasn't been built yet ofc.

[@bornonthebattlefront4883]

also the challenger 3 is completely different, same can be said for the DPL, its supposed to eventually replace the abrams, tho i doubt it will, most likely it will be canceled and then the next program will actually replace the abrams, kinda like how most things in the military go nowadays, gotta can 2 or 3 programs before eventually going through with it, like the NGSW, and the JLTV programs, being the 3rd and 2nd of their kind respectfully, tho i do actually think a new tank will come in 2030, it just wont be the DPL program most likely

[@mf5535]

Yes, but they have built very few of them and are still testing them. Despite the model number,, the T-90 was just an upgrade of the T-72 and they have built just a few hundred of them. A new tank is desperately needed as indicated by their poor showing in Ukraine. The T-14 is still in the prototype stage with just 20 being tested. The Russians originally planned to purchase 2300 between 2015-2020. This was delayed until 2025 ostensibly because of the cost. However, it has to make you wonder if they are concerned about the effectiveness of the design. Also, as a result of this delay, thel technology will be 10 years older than planned before they even put one into the field. With their miserable failure in Ukraine, maybe they ought to focus on the quality of their leadership before they worry about technology.

Also don't forget that The Challenger 3 has also been designed and future proofed to upgrade and take the 130mm Rheinmetall main gun for when we,(the UK) decides to transition from 120-130mm in the not to distant future. PARIS - German defense company Rheinmetall has unveiled a prototype of a 130mm smoothbore gun for a future main battle tank (MBT). According to the company, the increase of 8 percent in caliber results in 50 percent more kinetic energy over the 120mm gun from Rheinmetall, installed in thousands of tanks worldwide.

[@nonyabisness6306]

@@hermes6910 Both are Rheinmetall guns from about 2000. the 140mm was just entered into a joint program between uk, germany and france, hence why the french have it. they may have modified it somewhat but the basis is the NPzK-140.

[@nonyabisness6306]

@@hermes6910 How is it at all strange to think it's the NPzK140 when there seems to be no documentation on another 140mm and the firm that now want to introduce it was part of a firepower upgrade program where the NPzK140 was shared with that company? Like How exactly is that in any an implausable proposition? Have you provided documentation on the gun? no you haven't. All I can find is that Giat proposed a 140mm the same year this program was started and they got to see the NPzK140. They in fact worked on the NPzK140 with no mention of having their own gun. Nexter itself is saying they "drew on experiences" from that program and their internal pictures of the gun look very similar to pictues from the NPzK140, especially the breach area.

[@splodge561]

Experts experts so many experts

[@xXxTripleHxXx]

It is still unlcear weather the MCGS will receive the 130mm gun from Rheinmetall or the 140mm gun from Nexter. The 130 can be installed in existing Leopard tanks so upgunning the existing fleet of MBTs as an intermediate sollution is at least an option. The 140 is a more radical design that uses telescoping ammuntion and because of the caliber it is able to use guided ammunition wich increases its performance against airial targets and other fast moving targets. Id go for the 140 because its even more capable than the 130 and ensures that T14 can be penetrated with absolute certainty wheras its not quite 100% sure that the 130 can penetrate the extremely well armored front of T14

Thing with the armata is it is not designed to engage other High value tanks. it is much to bulky, too tall and once the turret is hit like any other tank it is out of comission.

[@aigaion4315]

Most tanks are pretty tall. The lower you get the worse you gun depression gets, and your gun elevation can be limited as well. Of all the tanks on the list, the T-14 has the longest range gun with the highest muzzle velocity, while having a considerably narrower turret, which give it a lot of advantages for tank on tank combat. IN general in tank on tank combat the first person to spot the enemy is the winner, so the T-14 has a lot of advantages right up front.

Squadrons of 4 crew, hulking, multi-million dollar, highly visable, logistical nightmares vs. hundreds of a low cost, stealthy, two man-portable, fire and forget ATMs and Stingers mounted on fast, highly mobile militarised 'beach' buggies. It's an evolving battlefield. Tanks can play a part, put the planets must be aligned.

Depleted uranium ammunition performance does not benefit from the increased velocity. Current M829A4 is very effective against current threats.

MCGS was already shown in germany. its top of the line tank by FAR. For the ones we get to see om public view.

[@Altokos]

The MGCS is not confirmed to have the 130mm Rheinmetal, it could have instead the Nexter 140mm ASCALON canon.

[@bryanchoi95]

M2020 isn’t official name of North Korea’s tank. North Korea never revealed name of the tank. M2020 is temporarily named by western media because it was revealed in year 2020. Also, it is expected latest version of old T-62 tanks consider North Korea’s capabilities. The predecessor of M2020 Cheonma and Seongoon are also variant of T-62. Tough It looks like modern, some of features still came from old T-62 tank and their own variants, technically it isn’t 3rd generation MBT.

[@janicmeier1]

I heard new composite armor is so potent that an rpg7 cant even penetrate 10mm of it new tanks will all have grater caliber guns becouse the t-14 armata wich i know is protected by composite armor in some sort of all or nothing style protect the crew and the tower and the electronics to fight even if lots of the tank is destroied this way you can have a light tank which is penetrable at some points but totaly imune at keysections you can damage it but it can still fight

I’d like to say I’m not overly Impressed with Challenge 3 it’s not the tank for the next decade I’m sure the crews will perform as all British soldiers do

[@Fordmister]

Tbf if you look at the MOD's plans they only plan to operate Challenger 3 for about a decade and a bit (due to be retired in 2040) Its a blatant stop gap tank designed to modernise Challenger 2 while the MOD figures out how to get the skills and factories up and running in the UK to actually start building their own armour vehicles again. (which is almost certainly why the MOD is persisting with the horror show that is the AJAX IFV programme rather than just buying the proven CV90 from BAE Systems Hagglunds, its about learning how to design, build and mass produce modern armoured vehicles from the ground up, they'd rather deal with the shitstorm of problems AJAX is having now than have to deal with all of this when it comes time to actually replace Challenger)

Why not just upgrade a M4 Sherman instead? Its more battle tested than any other tank and its cheaper to upgrade a tank than to build a new one.

[@victoria19853]

It has been in the past with the Israeli Army look up the M51 super Sherman there’s two versions of it M50 and M51 the difference is on the guns and engines the M51 has one of the most unique muzzle break in a tanks gun a double-baffle muzzle break is a French 105mm gun Israel stopped using M51 Super Sherman’s in the 1980s with some of there super Sherman’s being taken out of service till the early 1990s some countries took the M4 Sherman to its full potential.

[@SMGJohn]

@@victoria19853 They really stretched that Sherman chassis to its limits, it came to a point that Super Shermans were more expensive to convert from Shermans than to just buy a whole new light tank with the same capabilities.

[@victoria19853]

@@SMGJohn During those times not many nations would sell tanks to Israel 🇮🇱 so they had to improvise and make due with what they had on hand. Even today Israel has retrofitted f-16s and f-15s and are a whole lot better at combating and more effective than the American spec ones our Air Force has. Not to mention they could fly further and longer with a single tank of fuel. Not midair refueling.

[@trimaxionerror5696]

3 man crew tanks no good! Increases maintenance workload for remaining crew.

[@xXxTripleHxXx]

Yes and no... tanks don't operate alone Usually they are accompanied by infantry in IFVs. You can assign one infantry member from each IFV to help with maintenance tasks on tanks

[@simonCX]

Not really. The support train for the tank can contain additional soldiers. French do this for Leclerc.

[@jwb1227]

When main gun goes from 120mm to 130mm or larger, you won't have a choice but to use an auto-loader due to rounds being heavier and larger. Naturally, the loader is not needed and the crew goes from 4 to 3 and savings in personnel used elsewhere. No need to debate as it is a moot point as guns get bigger.

[@LaCrytique]

nd Leclerc XLR with Scorpion Developement project. In the event of war, France will equip all its Leclercs with 140mm Imagine if there are Leclerc sXXI, Renovated with the scorpion project, then equipped with 140mm

[@LaCrytique]

@@hermes6910 No but in case of war, IF NEEDED, the T4 turret with the 140mm will be produced and used

[@LaCrytique]

yes, given that they had made test batteries in 2019, I thought that it had a link with the Leclerc XLR but is not planned. After, in the event of war, if the 120mm is no longer sufficient, the T4 turret (Leclerc T4 with the 140mm) is expected to be produced and installed. And has the same turret / chassis location for all leclercs, so could be fitted on LECLERC S2, S2.1 or XLR

[@LaCrytique]

@@hermes6910 Yes it is for the MGCS, but it would take a Char factory to produce them. In fact would be a modification, The turret is made to be placed on a Leclerc without modifying the chissis, the only problem would be to produce them but these means will be determined in time of war
