Right, so this is a chicken measuring contest. Neither him nor you were in the wrong, Italy factually is behind Germany in terms of MBT development (and they will never catch up since they’re pretty much giving on homegrown designs by purchasing the 2A8, not that they’d be able to catch up considering the enormous gap between the two countries in this department).
They barely upgrade them and Germany it’s more like getting forced into buying the F35 to carry nukes
It is a fact, however, that if the Ariete AMV were modeled properly (most notably the WAR and PSO kits) - the Ariete would be completely capable at top tier. Not quite as good as the Leopard 2A7V, but at least not too far behind in my eyes.
But they somehow massively gimped the Ariete, even though it should be far, far more capable than it is in-game. The weakest top tier MBT, and they somehow additionally felt the need to gimp it. Crazy.

Pair it with a completely modernized aircraft with a good radar and Systems
Are the Italian Eurofighters updated to the same standard as the others, because Italy is part of the consortium, so Germany invests 10 billion Euros to transport nuclear bombs?
If You read the political plan of the F35 You would understand, also try to check the differences of the DA5 against the italian Eurofighter,
The DA5 is a prototype.
It isnt idk where You get that its a prototype man
In all, seven prototypes were built, called Development Aircraft (DA), named DA1 to DA7; DA2 and DA4 were produced by the United Kingdom, DA1 and DA5 by Germany, DA3 and DA7 by Italy and DA6 by Spain.
DA 5 is a designation given to the stages of the typhoons the ones being used by different countries You arent Even investigating on the German eurofighter, i don’t think You are Even bothering im searching
OK, you win again.
man im not gonna discuss anymore specially if its off topic, imma just leave it there
Indeed they don’t get the same upgrades, they are getting Better ones. Germany currently Is upgrading theyr fleet with the ecrs mk1 while Italy Will upgrade it’s fleet with the mk2 (wich Is better). Btw Iris-t Is a joint project were Italy Is the second biggest partner.
Btw I Will stop here since It’s off topic. I Just wanted to point out 2 more wrong claims.
i refer to the one being based off for later production models, and the issue with identifying them is the fact germany has like 3 different eurofighters in service with different stuff, As far as i know, germany will receive some twin-seaters and one-seaters, the twin-seater being made specifically for ground attack and to clear enemy AA’s, and the single seater to fit intercommunication with other systems for air space so they can all identify and mark in their radar the enemy to take inmediate action
going back into theme by the time italy gets 2A8’s we will see the first prototype of the leopard 3 or 2AX and it will be pretty outdated specially taking in count the new 130 mm that its probably gonna get used in the 2AX
You alredy said It three times.
