oh well at least south koreas our allies besides the abrams is a last gen tank, but overtime is been continually upgraded so its still combat effective thats whats keeping it in service since the 80s
@JLennon1998 The K-1 is a Korean version of the M-1 and we (France, Japan, ROK, Germany, UK, and USA) share our weapons tech. In other words there is little difference in any of these countries top of the line tanks. This does not mean that all these countries have the same quality of soldier (because they do not).
@kraigthorne Well, that's a little of an understatement to call the K-1 the Korean version of the M-1. There's some noticeable differences. I mean, it is influenced by the M-1, no doubt, but still, if anything, it's a highly modified version. The K2, on the other hand, is different entirely that the Turkish Altay will be based off of.
Hunter killer capabilities with enhanced soft and hard kill....no other tanks has that at the moment. I believe this is the tank to be bench marked....oh...i also heard that it has some sort of stealth technology as well....well it's built by Hyundai it's gotta be good. I wonder if it comes with 100,000 mile warranty and buy back program....
My comment was meant for acheroncyc. These tanks can travel close to 50 MPH downhill! They are very fast. Unlike four-wheeled cars, these tanks can turn on a dime. Because of that capability, these thanks are a lot more agile than you think.
Plus, this K2 can shoot locked targets without human intervention. If you are the target, say a prayer.
Just so you know, K-2 is considered one of the best battle tanks in the world. You should look it up. Oh, and agility isn't everything in today's war.
I know the K2 is one of the best tanks around. I'm just pointing out that modern tanks are mostly fast and agile, not slow and clumsy. As for the importance of agility, it really depends on your battleplan. It may not be important in a head on slugfest, but in a blitzkrieg it's one of the most important qualities, alongside speed and sheer firepower.
What makes you think K2 is slow or clumsy? In actuality, K2 weighs less and yet comes with better engine/transmission than Abram, Leclerc or Leo. In fact, K2 has much better nimble suspension than Abram or Leclerc.
In addition, K2 has second 100HP engine that allows the main engine to shut off during idle, which saves gas as well as keeps the tank quieter than other tanks.
I NEVER CLAIMED THE K2 WAS SLOW OR CLUMSY. I was refuting Dday's claim that most tanks are slow and clumsy. I didn't say anything about the K2 in that refuting.
Holy crap...that snorkel bit is the most impressive. This thing is totally an invasion tool. It may not be able to stand up to a US or British tank, but then, it won't be facing those in a fight.
Can't wait for this tank in service. :)

@ModernGermanWarfare it's a copy of US m1a1, tech transfer inshort, like what they do to apache, UAV, and f-16(TA-50),

@patrixcasila15 no. The K1 tank was build upon similiar design as m1. Not the m1a1. The K2 is also very different from American tanks.

Actually, modern tanks are pretty fast and agile. You should see some of the stuff the Abrams, Leopard, and LeClerc can do.
