With all due respect, I actually feel the
K2PL armor levels will fall somewhere either at the level of the current
K1A1/K1A2 (With the K1A2 electronic system upgrades.) or at best
between both the
K1A1/K1A2 and
K2.
Though we are
not dealing with
DU Armor issues here, we are
certainly dealing with
classified industrial secrets related in how the armor "came about" (R&D) and manufactured etc. etc.
I've already covered this ground which facilitated us to develop a
plausible model for foreign sales
M1A2C (SEP 3) tanks as entered in the game with the last patch.
S. Korea is well aware of the "
courtship" between China and Russia and both are aligned with N. Korea. The last thing
S. Korea wants to see is
their version of the
K2 being towed, transported or driven off a European battlefield that they have no interest in fighting at themselves.
Also, the same goes for the
KASTAM munition which was
never mentioned as part of this tank deal.
I have read articles to further this point, quoting U.S. ARMY officers that have no firm data concerning the
TYPE 10 tank from Japan about its armor and latest ammo.
Foreign sale tanks come with options that we along with any major tank producing countries offer to foreign countries from armor, electronics etc. etc.
We did the same several years ago when the Ukraine developed the
OPLOT-M (T) for Thailand.
Take a look for yourselves, we put together a very capable foreign sales
M1A2C that can compete with anything out there.
It's just not an American
M1A2C for all the reasons stated above and more not mentioned.
And to clarify and as I have already stated elsewhere, I
absolutely can see if the
Ukraine should ever get those
LEOPARD 2A5 tanks, game wise, they should be the latest version they (Germany) had in service before they retired them.
I hope you see the difference in this last versus the
above for a
countries most advanced fielded tank.

Pat
