According to the Russian "tank" reported to the Russian military is also looking forward to knowing when to come out of the T-95 tank, the Chinese designers have quietly completed the 99KM latest main battle tank testing .

Tank previously developed with the Chinese is different, 99KM modular tanks equipped with active protection system that can more effectively resist the serial high-explosive anti-tank weapons attacks, the world leader in advanced degree of at least 10 years, the Chinese tanks The first manufacturer to produce over 200 of 99KM tank.

The report also said, 99KM also installed on the tank improved JD-4 type active laser defense system. The device consists of a laser warning system and a quantum oscillation generator. There are enemy tanks in the received ranging signal laser beam irradiation, JD-4 on the alarm system will automatically give instructions to turn the turret where the laser beam emission source direction. After that, it will launch a low energy laser beam to determine the exact location of target, when this step is completed, the emission of the laser beam energy will be strongly enhanced in an instant in which the optical system of direct destruction of enemy or the operator blind. At present, the world has been in service, modern tank, it is also not equipped with any kind of similar defense system. This unique feature will undoubtedly become a battlefield tank 99KM an extremely dangerous opponent, a 99KM power equivalent to 2 ~ 3 T-90 or M1A1 tank.

99KM tanks

Full weight: 75 tons

Power: 2100 hp engine

Speed: 80 km / h

Maximum stroke: 869 km

Main weapon: 155 mm gun (capable of launching precision-guided missiles can also be launching a new generation of armor-piercing kinetic energy projectile)

M1A1 tank

Full weight: 57 tonnes

Power: 1500 hp engine

Speed: 66.8 km / h

Maximum stroke: 498 km

Main weapon: 120 mm smoothbore gun

T-90 tanks

Full weight: 46.5 tons

Power: 1300 hp engine

Speed: 65 km / h

Maximum stroke: 650 km

Main weapon: 125 mm artillery

Russian T80 tank 99G and contrast:

China compared to the previous equipment, tanks, 99G main advantage of the more mobile (equipped with a power more powerful 1500 hp turbo diesel engines), more advanced fire control system, defense force, a higher (by the front turret with the German "Leopard II" similar to the wedge design and installation of reactive armor.) At the same time, the protective armor of the tank using a modular design, can quickly be replaced once damaged.

Another highlight 99G tanks and equipment in its JD-3 laser active combat system. The system consists of computer controller, tracking turntable and the servo system, laser suppression apparatus, thermal imaging, laser range finder, jammer (gas laser transmitter) component. When the system receives the laser beam from the enemy tanks, the alarm system will quickly send signals to the turret turned to laser radiation. Later, JD-3 system will emit a laser beam intensity is weak in order to determine the precise target date. Next, the laser beam's intensity increased suddenly in a short time a very dangerous level, causing the enemy's light equipment failure or operator visually impaired.

At the same time, 99G tank fire control system has also been further improved. The system includes targeting drivers using hand and aiming device (with separate stable device), laser rangefinder, thermal imager, digital ballistic computer, weapons and stable instrument, a large number of sensors (responsible for collecting atmospheric conditions, barrel wear and tear data), automatic target tracking system and is equipped with multi-color display drivers console. Thermal imager acquired image can be delivered directly to target hands in front of train operators and color monitor (11.4-fold magnification and 5 times). In addition, 99 tanks is also equipped with inertial and satellite navigation systems, received the same information can also be displayed in front of the display drivers, and superimposed with the electronic map. The tank is also equipped with modern radio station.

99 tanks with the same early, 99G's main weapon is a modeled on the Russian tank gun 2A46 125 mm smoothbore gun (barrel insulation is installed on the set), the use of tungsten alloy APFSDS, it would be 2000 meters away from the breakdown of homogeneous armor 850 mm, and the use of special alloy penetrators, the same distance of 960 mm armor-piercing capability. The same with the 98-type, 99 type is also equipped with automatic hydraulic loading machine (the machine Beitan 22 issued). Total of 41 can be stored inside the tank shells, armor-piercing shells, broken shells and a burst-type laser-guided artillery 9M119 anti-tank missiles. 86 secondary weapons in a parallel-type 7.62 mm machine gun and a W-85-type composition of 12.7 mm anti-aircraft machine gun. In addition, the installation of the turret side also has a 84 5-tube smoke launchers.
