Well as I see it now we are down to the following as probably the last brand new designed tanks that will get into the game and I am willing to list them in the order they'll likely to appear in the real world and ours.
1.
Japan the TK-X or TYPE-10 is ready to go. With the economic situation this tank was put on the back burner. Now thanks to N. Korea and the growing influence of China, it'll probably get into production within the next couple of years or sooner. Also Japan is seeking much closer ties with S. Korea and Australia which is now seen as a key defensive partner in the region.

Turkey the ALTAY which I've posted on in conjunction with the M60T. Sources say it's still on track for prototypes by 2015 and fielding by mid 2016.

India The FMBT is due in 2020. India has been very active in regards to weapons development and procurement (AKASH, ARJUN MKI and MKII etc.) logically you would think due to it's neighbor to the west and the issue with Kashmir. But that would be wrong to some degree, they're looking north to China as well. They've built just recently two more air bases in the north and are looking to build more. The ARJUN MKII is meant to counter an armored threat from there as well until the FMBT comes on line.

Obviously an ARJUN pictured but the write up indicates some of the technology to be used with the
ARJUN MKII and FMBT.
