Don,
I as well pointed out the second picture was probably real in the sense it's from the Ukraine...

"Now the next picture below the rendered one, looks real and if so, those ERA blocks look too small to be Kontact-5 in fact I'd be willing to bet that it's Kontact-1"

Now I know a little more about the ICON process-thank you!

If the current timeline is 3 weeks, I'll be watching as I would anyway.

We're for sure probably not to know about the LEOPARD 1A5 units until after the release but, as I've already stated a couple of posts ago "we just add the ERA" or something very close to this last.

Moving on...

My next is using "open source" data to track Russian tank loses of which I'm sure ORNX is one of them (Some of those pictures look very familiar to me-HMmmm.). They say they'll update this weekly with a "brief" bio of each tank. Tank loses (#) is next to the name of the tank. This is Week 1.

Poland has signed the agreement to produce the K2 export (K-2PL) tank, this obviously this will not happen overnight but will more than likely take 2-3 years to build and procure the manufacturing equipment. In the meantime, South Korea will be suppling I believe the first 200 tanks or so.

I think this Thread is fairly caught up on.

In my first Submission that was focused on the Russian captured tanks I had shown the original number captured when I was putting it together.

Just before I posted it, I went back and reviewed the ORNX captured numbers. If there was a change, I updated the number to reflect that as follows from the submission...T-80BVM (32) +) ,

When the patch gets released and as part of my normal admin cycle when I "bounce" the submission list off the patch I will update those numbers to see what's changed since it was posted.

It's a FREE SERVICE with "No Contract to Sign!!"

Regards,
Pat
