New pictures released of the Iranian Karrar Main Battle Tank

According to information published by Mojnews on August 26, 2022, new pictures of the Iranian Armed Forces' Karrar Main Battle Tank have been released during a visit of the Chief Justice of Iran, Gholam-Hossein Mohseni-Eje'i. [...] The Karrar is an Iranian third-generation main battle tank. The tank was announced in 2016. At the announcement, it was stated that it possessed an electro-optical fire control system, a laser rangefinder, ballistic computer and could fire at both stationary and mobile targets in day or night.

The Karrar was announced following failed negotiations to obtain a licence and the technology to produce Russian T-90MS tanks. It is based on the Soviet-made T-72, and attempts to incorporate elements of the T-90, American M1 Abrams, and British Challenger 2. It's being manufactured at the Bani Hashim Defense Industrial Complex.
