only the US should get it

Solid arguments but we are forgetting one crucial thing, from the get-go this was made for the PRC with specifications made by the PRC. Who got how many tanks dont matter because this was made specifically for the Chinese market based on a Chinese chassis.

Now I am open to the US getting this vehicle as well but it shouldnt really be just the US only. That will come off dishonest. If it wasnt for China, this tank wouldnt exist at all.

My current opinion is that it should be Chinese only. The US is a major nation so they can afford to not have this tank but eh, wouldnt matter as long as China gets it.

The US and China also worked together to develop a fighter jet, and to my knowledge China was the one that ended up with it after the split. I feel the perfect way to introduce both of these vehicles would be as part of an event that highlights this time of co-operation between the nations, where the US gets the tank, and China gets the plane.

You mean Super 7 or J-8 Peace Pearl? Americans do send back the J-8PP, some sources even said they didn’t remove the APG-66 on it?

I don’t think that’s particularly relevant. At the end of the day, unless I’m mistaken, China never ended up getting the tank. I fail to see how it would be ‘dishonest’ for the US to get it. It was a Joint project between the two nations, and when things fell through, the US side ended up keeping the prototype tanks, while China kept the prototype jets.

J-8 Peace Pearl, that’s the one I was thinking of.
