Or Challenger II/Merkava.

Those are the three go-to MBTs today in terms of performance potential.

Though to be sure, I'd rather sit in an A-10 and blast the **** out of everything on the ground, ehehe.

You know what... The pics posted in this thread scared the living hell out of me. It's only a matter of days until those weapons mentioned will be knocking on our doors.

Kinda like that other China joke:

That reminds me of:

- The lead in toys incident that made Mattel dispose/destroy 1 million toys in the process

- The melamin in milk to artificially increase the value of a certain vitamin/mineral found or added in milk.

- The soak the old dead man with toxic waste then dump them in the streets routine. Oh wait, that one's in Japan I think. I read that from the "Editors note" from the Ghost in the Shell manga.

It's just you. Remember, this is an IFV with a 30mm cannon in a turret, not a tank or something.

Tank turrets are bulkier because they not only have room for the crew but sometimes an auto loader, thick multi-layer armor panels, etc. This turret just holds the gun. The armor is considerably lighter, while the crew and everything else are in the hull.
