Significance of the Al Khalid

i don't think years of experience is the only measure we have for building weapons. the chinese had gunpower for 500 years longer than any other nation in the world, does that mean we have better small arm than everyone else? and is 500 years ahead? of course not. Germany invented jets, yet they are not the best jet producers in the world. so your arguement is false. its not all about how much experience, it's also about money and R&D, and many other factors.

Well in this case we're not speaking about gun powder we're speaking about the same equipment and derivatives...

Russia has more than 60 yrs of tanking experience , I don't think the Chinese C&C and Gun systems(in AlKhalid/Type 90) are superior than current Russian items !!! Neither the Ukranians can beat Russia , SORRY ....

You should look into just how many Soviet MBTs were designed and manufactured in Ukraine. As for Chinese systems, just compare the material science sectors and you'll understand.

the new type 59...is called the AL Zarrar.
You won't be on the same "planet". Mohamad will come back and inspire your al khalids with his holy word or something?

I have no problem with anyone arguing for or aganst Al-Khalid, but just leave the religion out of it unless ofcourse if it's too hard for you to....

Hi Pisigma
Great to see some more people on this Furom that are not Naive and closed minded. You can argue time is meanlingless in regards to a nation, fifty years or one hundred years ahead what does it mean? Techonology leaps is common when a nation tries to catch up we see this we the rise of Japan after 1860s and also Germany who industrialised later then Britain but overtook it in a short space of time.

Chill guys. This is going to turn into a China Vs. Indian Vs. Russia thread and its going to get closed real soon.

Until we factor in everything, including training and logistics support, its silly to say one tanks is superior to the other. maybe China should buy a t-90 from russia and pit it against an Al-khalidm and see what happens. That way well know for sure.

If you ask me, when it comes down to it any of the MBT's of any of the world's major armed forces could destroy any other. I don't think any tank can take a direct hit from any 120/125mm rifled or no. So it doesn't matter what tank your in really, but the circumstances and tactics in which the tank is used. In a 1 on 1 battle, any tank whether it be an M1A2, Leclerc or Type 98/99 either tank can potentially penetrate the other and be the victor, but this doesn't mean that one is over all better than another, there are just some tanks that have better performance in certain areas such as speed.

And btw, yes the Al-Khalid can fire the Refleks.

That one SA-3 platform on the seventh page looks like a bad mama-jamba, but I imagine that it would be rather dangerous. The tank looks like it is directly in the way of the exaust of the missile. Er, disregard that.

Anyway the T-90 V.S Al-Khalid discussion really needs to rest. Maybe you could ask a computer graphics expert to make a simulation like they did on that one Discovery Channel show. You know, the one where they made situations between animals and counculate who wins?

since modern tank vs tank engagement chance of winning is who shoot first and what kind of support they have, how is survivability of al-khalid in guerilla warfare where the tank have to enter into a city or village
