(Land) China: Type 99 (MBT)

[Ambassador]

So wie ich das sehe, ist das Typ99 A - wohl eine Weiterentwicklung oder Version. Unter dem Link von upmaier ist der Aufriss von 3 Panzern zu sehen, wobei Typ 99, Typ99 A bezeichnet sind und der Untere Panzer nur in Chinesisch.
So wie ich das sehe, ist dort jedoch Typ99, Typ 96MBT und dieser untere ist der Typ 99A.

Aufgrund der Grössendarstellung nehme ich an, das der neue Typ 99 A leichter, schneller und Manövrierfähiger ist als Typ 99

Mal einen alten Strang wieder etwas wiederbeleben - in China bastelt man ebenso an Upgrades für den MBT-Fuhrpark...

China Unveils Cutting-Edge ZTZ-99 Tank Upgrade with Advanced Active Protection System

The ZTZ-99 is the latest generation of Chinese main battle tanks, representing the most advanced armor technology produced domestically by China. It stands as a symbol of China's military modernization, equipped with cutting-edge systems for firepower, mobility, and protection. A recent development, as shared by "David Wang" on X (formerly Twitter) on September 19, 2024, reveals that China is currently developing a variant of the ZTZ-99 outfitted with an advanced Active Protection System (APS). This APS includes two projectile launchers and four fire control radars, similar to the GL-6 system, first revealed in 2022. [...]

The ZTZ-99 main battle tank, also named Type 99, was developed in the 1990s by China as part of its broader effort to modernize its armored forces. Its design was influenced by earlier Soviet tank models, particularly the T-72, but it incorporates advanced technologies, making it one of the most sophisticated tanks in China’s arsenal. Development of the ZTZ-99 began in the late 1980s, and the first prototype was completed by 1993.
