Fallout Re: MBT's

I would whole heartly agree with your last. As it looks right now and as I posted "subject to change" it's too along with the 30mm have also a RWS 50 cal. and 7.62mm coax.

It's just too early to tell.

Your last looks really good.

I'm trying to figure out the "dome" I know it's not Commanders Panoramic Sight.

I suspect a like Submarine Periscope which contains multiple antennas in it, that this will also include GPS/Radar (Possibly) BMS/IFF/Drone EW (Which will be integrated into this tank) and certainly C4I which is what set the Japanese TYPE 10 apart from most other modern tanks to include ours when it was fielded.
I believe it was the first tank to operate with a fully integrated C4i system.

(C4I coordinated ops in action.)
