The German--South American tank was TAM: it is very light, only under 31 tons, but it lost to the PT-91 M anyway; propably partly because of the improved by the Slovaks Czechoslovak type of the main battle cannon.

@MingGuoLi the russian T90s

[itom95]

this thing has a shitload of armor. Steel+Composites+Laminated Armor+steel screens+ERAWA 2/3. it uses the French LeClerc's firing system, and also can fire the laser guided AT-11 tandem warhead missiles from its 125mm smoothbore gun.

PT-91M for the win!

[MingGuoLi]

Thanks.

I don't think any of the tanks you listed are very heavy. And I donno what the M models have in particular, but regular PT-91s, AFAIK, aren't very good compared to other T-72/64 upgrades.

But both the K-1 and the TAM comes only with 105mm guns, if my timeline is right. And I thought the TAM's factory went bankrupt long long ago.
