Robot tank?
How big a round this light tank is resilient too? The problem with light tanks, for example, the Sheridan is they only provide protection against small arms fire.
Interesting.
Transportable by C-130. That’s a plus.
On the theory side, I’m wondering if one day soon every nation will go to war against every other nation.
Why is there even a manned turret?
Put the gun in a remote turret with an autoloader, put the crew in the hull. That would cut down on the weight, admittedly at the expense of ease of service.
The other thing they would need to work on is “situational awareness” software that allows the TC to be aware of the area around the tank at all ranges, without having to put his head out.
The compact design makes it well-suited for urban use when the SHTF.

Nah. Another slab-sided “vendor special” to try to make something to sell from other failed projects.
Would it go head-to-head against the newest state of the art tanks? Nope.
How would it fare against ATGMs? One shot, one dead tank and crew.
We need the best possible weapons for our limited funds, not leftovers.
One question crosses my mind. What does the best and most advanced armament do for a nation when the leadership is piss poor, putting it mildly and the nation itself is rotten to its core, spiritually and otherwise. When you lose your foundation, before long you will have lost it all.
