So far only the Swedish and Pakistani (Chinese) tree have received trial vehicles (unless you count F-16AJ, but that was an unbuilt proposal, not even trial). This doesn’t mean other nations can’t get trial vehicles, just that there might not have been a necessity to add them over service vehicles.
Agreed, the modified variant (Oplot P) existed because this was the variant Pakistan would have bought if they had decided to buy the Oplot. In such a case I feel like the Oplot M only used to test the general platform is out of place.
Chinese MBT literally one of the best Flanker in Toptier like you have speed of NATO vehicle and Low-Profile from Russian MBT look at the MBT-2000/Al-Khalid-I got speed, low-profile, armor is 50/50 also 577mm of flat pen APFSDS | and yes Chinese MBT don’t have that much of protection compare to like T-90M and T-80BVM but you have Firepower and speed so use that instead for flanking not running straight head-on to where enemy expecting you lmao
Did you know that this extra bit of pointless speed can cause STAB to fail?
Have you actually compared the protected area projection of ZTZs and NATO tanks?
Since Sweden has purchased Germany Leopard 2A4(Strv 121) and Leopard 2A5 with improve armor (Strv 122) why aren’t swedeish vehicles assigned to the German tech tree? type question
I know ur Gun Stabilization limit is at like what 70km/h and ur top speed is 75km/h
the anwser? welp try slowing down a bit ur gun STAB now working easy
I play both Chinese TT and Swedish TT i know what im talking about lmao
use ur brain maybe
VT-4A1 is 12.7 (FY-4 ERA and APS)
VT-4 is 12.3 (FY-2 ERA and without APS)
Still use the same play style like MBT-2000/Al-Khalid-I
Sneak around using ur top speed and very strong APFSDS that’s it
Only difference is VT-4A1 can block some ATGM using APS and Thats it
Protection? Well if chinese a bit more smart during development this thing they should have like ERA on lfp or maybe extend the composite armor more to the lfp because the lfp is so big that any tank can literally pen it
Yeah, except 1.0 BR up, and note they have actually slower reverse. (17vs34) Ur top speed is not a ‘strength’ at 12.3/12.7 either, like half the MBTs can get as fast as u, unlike the 99A which can pull away. 12.3/7 is a very different BR placement.
Strong dart…
And plus u can do that with almost any tank. (almost)
They did extend the composite, but welp Gaijin. Plus they for some reason reversed the change where the autoloader and crews are moved up so there is much left unprotected by LFP.
17 km/h in reverse still better than Russian MBT (which is 11 for T-80 series and 4 for T-64/72/90)
and in my opinion VT-4 more like tank for filling up the empty slot
so the lineup (including Premium and Squadron)
ZTZ-99A
WZ1001
MBT-2000
Al-Khalid-I
Pakistani Oplot-M
All of this 5 have better mobility than VT-4/A1 the only advantage about VT-4A1 is APS (idk why gaijin doesn’t add the ZTZ-99A with APS)
