You might have missed the following as I added it after that post was added. From
Post 750 this thread.

Just wanted to provide the posts when it first came up in discussion for that tank.
As to the other and from the ref from armyrec.com the following..
"When
compared to other contemporary main battle tanks such as South Korea’s K2 Black Panther, Turkey’s Altay, Germany’s Leopard 2A8, France’s Leclerc XLR, or the American M1A2 SEP V3, the
Cheonma-2 still lags in terms of digital networking, mobility, and possibly fire control sophistication. The K2, for example, features advanced composite armor, a highly automated fire control system, and a hydro-pneumatic suspension for superior cross-country mobility. The
Leopard 2A8 integrates Trophy APS, fully digital battlefield integration, and state-of-the-art optics. The
Leclerc XLR has been upgraded with enhanced digital command systems and a new remotely operated turret-mounted machine gun. At the same time, the
M1A2 SEP V3 emphasizes survivability through improved armor and counter-IED measures, along with advanced thermal sights and new data-link capabilities."
It is
definitely the North Koreas best tank to date.
As I noted Don and I were only "
pennies apart" literally in our
independent builds.
Both had
APS/
TI/GSR I had
40/or Generous Big Maybe 45/
FCS My only difference was in
SURVIBILITY which I had at
4/To
ALL Armor Values it was like "
Looking into a mirror" for the most part.
It's my
Monday time to go!!
