How much bier and wurst can it carry?
Back in the day of the Wehrmacht, the Germans named their tanks Tiger, Panther and Lynx.
Today in the more sensitive progressive Bundeswehr, you woudl think they’d have less threatening names like Angora and Shihtzu.
I’m surprised that the coaxial machine gun isn’t a larger calibe4r.
Looks like a lower-profile Bradley.
Snazzy
Over $16,000,000 US each, a bit pricy, but who cares when taxpayers are footing the pill.
Heavier than the M4 Sherman tank.
This features a remote controlled turret. There are many proponents of such a turret in the US Army - for the next tank, in particular.
It offers a promise of crew safety, which is hard to resist.
But IMHO, no amount of sensors, cameras, and vision blocks can replace the ability to peek out of the hatch and gain an understanding of the situation around you. And the crew must rely heavily on gps for navigation.
I’m curious to see how crews like this vehicle and perform in this vehicle...hopefully the US Army will pay close attention.
