Germany’s looking to settle the score even though they’re under new management lol
Panthers and Falcons coming to a killbox near you comrades!
Oehhh nice! The Kf51 is a really promessing tank. Would be great!
The nice thing is that it has a remote weapon station on top that has the capability to shoot down small drones.
Yeah it was offered long ago, along with actually manufacturing them in Ukraine.
This story is from March 2023.
Will it beat the thousends of t14 armatas which RuSSia will deploy soon??? /S
Well i am sure they will customise this tank to fight the modern war.
Less armor, lighter in general.
Good mobilty and room for automatic anti drone weapon
I’m guessing the commercial entity is willing but the political heads will shut this offer down immediately. The German way.
They should take the K2 Black Panther instead – less crew, better reload time, half the price.
Testing ground..
The only issue I habe is what if one falls into russian hands… especially with the new real top tier technology. Apart from that id love to see them use those tanks.
Basically armored vehicles nowadays are a big target to be hit by drones and FPVs.
Wow…. She looks beautiful ❤️🥰
As much as the T14 is a failure and a piece of Russian shit, it’s concept is good.
There really is no need to have a manned turret. It can all be automated.
The ‘drone tank’ can’t be far off. If drivers are currently using imaging when driving, then that signal could be transmitted to someone driving it miles away in the same manner drones are now. Give the tank it’s own drone protection too and you’ll have a very formidable machine.
I really hope that my country Italy will give to Ukraine our Centauro B2 or at the least the older B1 wheeled tank this year, it apparently is much better than our Ariete MBTs, very fast and quite resistant to mines since its an 8×8 wheeler with 4 steering wheels (if 1 wheel gets hit by a mine it is still maneuverable) and there are 120mm cannon versions.
Ukraine is successfully being used as a NATO weapons test field which makes a lot of sense and benefits both Ukrainian and NATO, hope this model will soon be used in Ukraine
This is basically the Leo 2 with a gun based on the French leclerc tank. It also has a drone in the rear and is fully automated.

If they take that long, they better deliver them to Poland or Latvia or whatever country the Russians attack next.
Matrix headlights and anti drone gun comes in standard package, but you probably have to pay extra for the green color or the tracks.
The challenger 3 would be a better choice
Its fucking crazy how much western armor have advanced compared to russian its night and day difference in the tech
Das dauert viel zu lange !
