Well it's no secret that I like this site for 1) Articles direct from the sources (Like DEFPRO that I miss.) and 2) The somewhat "nasty habit" when I post something on equipment (Most recently concerning the BMP2/3 issues of a couple of weeks ago.) of updating their equipment data, how dare they when Don and others are looking in to verify my comments!?! So when I came across a basic "Top Ten" tanks list from them it's worth a look. Surprizes a couple, though more true of older tanks,
speed is still a survival factor today so the surprizes in the Speed catagory where #2 OPLOT-M and #3 Z-99 but weight is a factor. The #1 LEO 2A7+ and #4 ABRAMS round out the top four in this catagory. Anyway it's light reading...
