Tancuri si alte tipuri de masini de lupta

Despre TR 200 se vorbea la sfarsitul anilor '90. Ideea mi se pare una buna mai ales ca cei de la KraussMaffei au ceva experienta in domeniu.

Nu a scapat pe niciun forum un desen ceva?

Am vazut o poza demult, intr-o revista militara. Semana leit cu un Leopard 2A5. N-ar fi rau sa-l faca la noi, daca ii mai pun si ceva blindaj reactiv, si un motor ca lumea, cred ca ar fi foarte bun.

Cu siguranta ar fi o gura de oxigen si pentru industria de armament de la noi. In urma cu ceva timp citisem pe un forum, ca producatorul KraussMaffei a realizat un model de tanc pentru armata indiana. Sper sa gasesc acele poze si sa le postez aici.

Cred că te referi la tancul indian Arjun:

care se pare că a fost un eșec, spre deosebire de tancul rival al pakistanezilor, Al Khalid:

dezvoltat în colaborare cu China.
Bine, nu se poate compara clona indiană cu Leopardul german...

Apropo de canalul tv Discovery, la adresa http://military.disc.../top-tanks.html puțeti vedea un top 10 al celor mai bune tancuri din istorie. Dând click pe fiecare tanc în parte, se poate vedea un filmuleț cu o scurtă descriere a tancului, cu plusurile și minusurile lui.

Top 10 tancuri, în viziunea Discovery:

1. T-34
2. M-1 Abrams
3. Tiger
4. WWI tank (primele tancuri britanice din seria Mark 1, 2, 3...(http://wio.ru/tank/ww1tank.htm)
5. Centurion
6. Panzer IV
7. Challenger
8. T-54/55
9. Merkava
10. M-4 Sherman

In afara de Tiger, se pare ca Panzer 4 sau 5 a fost un tanc performant echipat cu tun de 76mm.

The K2 Black Panther main battle tank evolved from the XK2 programme. This next-generation MBT was developed in South Korea using indigenous technology only. It's development began in 1995 and a full scale production is expected in 2009-2010. The K2 Black Panther will replace the K1 main battle tanks. Currently the K2 is one of the most advanced main battle tank in the world, outclassing anything North Korea or China have. Furthermore it is the most expensive main battle tank to date, overtaking the Japanese Type 90 MBT.

   This tank uses both modular composite armor of undisclosed type and Explosive Reactive Armor (ERA) blocks. It is also completed with an active protection system and countermeasures system. Protection of the K2 is broadly similar to the M1A2 Abrams MBT considering that the K2 is significantly lighter.

   The Black Panther is armed with a 120-mm Rheinmetall smoothbore gun, completed with an autoloader. This MBT has a maximum rate of fire in 15 rounds per minute. It is worth mentioning that autoloader's is similar to that, used on the French Leclerc main battle tank.

   It also has a very advanced fire control system, allowing to track and engage not only the main battle tanks, but low-flying helicopters as well. Maximum effective range of fire is up to 10 kilometers. Furthermore it's fire control system can spot, track and fire automatically at visible vehicle-size targets without needing any input from a human operator.

   The 120-mm gun can fire variety of munitions, notably the KSTAM (Korean Smart Top-Attack Munition) rounds. These are smart target activated fire and forget projectiles, but shouldn't be confused with anti-tank guided missiles. The KSTAM has it's own guidance system, aided by four stabilizing fins. At the final stage a parachute will deploy to slow it's fall and accurately engage target. Such principle is broadly similar to mortar-launched anti-tank munitions. Furthermore the K-2 tank can fire KSTAM munitions from behind the cover. The KSTAM has a maximum effective range in 8 kilometers.

   Secondary armament consists of coaxial 7.62-mm machine gun and anti-aircraft 12.7-mm K6 heavy machine gun, mounted on top of the roof. Both of these machine guns have a very respectable ammunition load (12 000 x 7.62-mm and 3 200 x 12.7-mm). Furthermore the K6 heavy machine gun has an automatic system, that identifies friend from a foe.

   This main battle tank has a crew of three, including commander, gunner and driver.

   Other features of the K2 tank include digital battlefield management system and navigation system for rapid coordination and increased situational awareness between friendly forces. It is also completed with an NBC protection system.

   The Korean K2 is powered by the license-built MTU MB-883 Ka500 engine, developing 1 500 horsepower. There is also an auxiliary gas-turbine power unit, developing 400 horsepower. It powers onboard systems when the main engine is turned off. The K2 Black Panther has a state-of-the-art semi-active hydropneumatic suspension. Every boogie wheel can be individually controlled, allowing this MBT to "sit", "stand", "kneel" or to "lean" in any direction. This feature gives tank a number of advantages, furthermore it is claimed that such suspension system is easier to maintain, comparing with traditional one.

   The Black Panther tank is fitted with a deep wading kit. It enables vehicle to cross rivers and other water obstacles up to 4.2 meters deep. Previous K1 and K1A1 MBTs lacked this feature.

   The K2 tanks will also be offered for export customers. Turkey has successfully negotiated import or license production of the K2 Black Panther MBT.

Cateva imagini "tari" cu tancuri



Super!

E o problemă cu pozele, pune-le din nou că nu se vede nimic.

Au fost in dotarea Armatei pana in '89 din cate stiu. Un foarte bun prieten, comandant de tanc pe TR-85, mi-a povestit cate ceva despre tancurile astea, lucruri aflate de la ofiteri mai batrani care au condus si comandat asa ceva. Au fost tancuri bune la vremea lor.

Eu am facut armata la tancuri in "93-"94 si atunci inca mai existau T-34 in functiune
