This is the best choice for PLA to push forward mechanize in the south of china.Type-59 and Type-62 needs to be replaced sooner

This is a completely new tank, specifically designed for tibetan environment, nothing to do with MBT2000.

Any specs

No, we still don't know its official name, let along specification, quite weird actually，because this tank seems already in mass production.

 

[Aepsilons]

No name yet? Type Ichi...?

 

[AgentOrange]

It's a 105 mm gun and the tank supposedly weights in at around 30 tons. (From various Chinese military websites).

Edit: Some people are saying it's 35-40 tons now given the roof mounted ERA or applique armor and new cheek armor compared to older pics.
