Its a flexible kit like i said. You can partialy purchase it. Singapore thailand all ordered different variants as well with less or more armor.
And even then didnt order the full kit like it was shown off.
They purchased and installed them.
But they didnt work onbthe Revolution kit.
The revolution kit is a rheinmetall private venture.
None of tjose countries had a hand in its development.
They only bought and installed them
Wish we bought the whole thing. We should stop with the Leo2PL. We’re quite off topic here.
We didn’t buy the whole upgrade because it was not worth it, we upgraded our gap filler filler fleet of 2a4’s to make them more competitive in today’s battle field, getting back on topic of the the K2 here, we didn’t upgrade it fully because we are planning to retire the leopard platform as soon as we get enough of M1’s and K2’s.
“This is a very important element that should give a huge boost to the Polish arms industry. We need to reach an agreement with the Korean side as soon as possible and start production of the Polonized version of the K2, because it is this version that interests our partners from Slovakia, not the standard Korean version,” said the head of the Polish Ministry of National Defense.
still think slovakei is unlikely
they gave up on the 2a8 because they were to broke and looked to the cv90120 instead
i highly doubt the K2 could still come to close to the price of a cv90120
I wish i could press YES twice
I can’t be so sure about the K2PL, but from a quick look over the internet a standard K2 Black Panther unit costs around $8.5 Million, while the latest version of the CV90120 cost’s €11.5 million per unit, of course the question is how much will the K2PL cost? And what does it have that the Slovak’s are so interested in that they specifically want the Polish version?
well in that case colour me suprised…
in that case i think the K2Pl propably capability wise is a good bit worse then i expected honestly.
Maybe great for its price range, but i never expected it to be so low
The newest 2a8 is reaching 30m euros and thats with well established production lines etc and so on
Now we know for sure K2 armor features heavily SiC ceramic tiles. 300 Of these to be exact and their approximate dimensions. We also know which company is producing them:
I think this would be a great tank for Japan tbh
No.
