Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 1)

Pakistani MBT-2000 is different, as they built there own in house version with Ukrainian engine and transmission, which they also use for the T-80UD

Also the Pakistani tanks often have less ERA than the MBT-2000 in game has, and some have the Ukrainian version of Shtora jammers

But how does it get 500mm pen?

How can gaijin detect botting or the usage of scripts using source code?
So everyone who used it; have been banned?

If they know what code to look for they can run a check in an account to see it they are modifying the client with it. If yes, then boom

I though it was pretty clear that it comes from cum blast…

Jaja, hehe, but for me it looks just like a Aphe round with 800m/s, far from impressive.

I want something with a wheel next update.

I would love to see the Roland M5 (Mach 5) be added for the FlaRakRad, it’s semi-fictional (it’s been in development and testing but never entered any form of service or advanced testing in any military)

I wonder if the Stormer will ever get fixed

got people saying starstreak is op so not likely

I used it again recently, after about 3 years… It was acceptable before, but now that thing is useless. I can’t even hit a helicopter in hover mode at 2km.

Some random chinese player spying hacker group and give gaijin 20 script that the cheater use. So seems like gaijin track the player who use the script and put them into ban list.

You cant really call it MBT-2000 since it’s their domestic variant. It wasnt developed from MBT-2000 but it was developed alongside the MBT-2000. Both were developed from the same tank. Technically it is a MBT-2000 but I dont think it would be appropriate to consider Al Khalid as a variant of MBT-2000.

Al Khalid will be added as a completely different tank.

It’s more like a hybrid of bunker buster and Multipurpose round

Al Khalid 1 uses the same engine as MBT-2000 and Al Khalid 2 has a 1500 HP engine if I’m not mistaken and Pakistan doesn’t use their own domestic version of those engines. They only use their locally made FCS,ERA and Main gun for the Al Khalid.

Pakistan is promoting its military industry development by producing Chinese equipment domestically. Considering that it is currently in its early stages, it is not a problem to refer to Al Khalid as a variant of MBT-2000. Al Khalid, Al Zarar, Hyder, and JF-17 are all, currently Pakistan does not have enough capability to complete significant design changes.

I definitely disagree. The Al Khalid is more or less to Pakistan what the T-90 Bishma is to India. While it’s not an exact copy, the design of the MBT-2000, or rather the Type 90MII tank came first in China, and China later worked with Pakistan to help make sure that the version of the tank they would produce in house would be tailored to there needs, but at the end of the day, all of the key elements of the tank came from china, or were developed with Chinese assistance. Im not saying that to dismiss what the Pakistan’s were able to accomplish by producing a decent MBT with there own industry, but it’s still at the end of the day an offshoot of the MBT-2000.

Ontop of that, there are still other variants of the MBT-2000, with most differences revolving around the internal running gear. It’s not obvious what versions countries like Bangladesh and Morocco use, as China overtime replaced certain foreign components with domestic Chinese ones

Im afraid Al Khalid 2 doesn’t actually exist yet, as you cant find a single picture of it anywhere, and there dosnt seem to be any official source for it’s exact specifications. While it may have a 1500 hp engine, we will have to wait and see when the tank is actually ready to be revealed, and for that reason, we probably won’t see it in war thunder anytime soon.

I actually forgot that Al Khalid 2 was cancelled. The project is know merged with the Al Haider(VT-4) project.

Still there is not enough evidence for those variants. It’s better to stick with the current variant.
We can’t really add stuff from the Al Khalid to MBT-2000. Al Khalid should come as a separate vehicle.
