    it is a unfinished pre prototype. otokar will use it for speed test under various conditions. they will test engine transmission and other equipments. i think more prototypes will follow this for other tasks. Next one for fire tests.
    what, Ottoman-Turk and TurAr thanked this.

    So it means, tests will undergo without the actual combat-weight. Which means we are still in early stages.

    Even though i know that Pakistan Army hates heavy tanks because of our fine sand terrain on the eastern border. I however do wish to see this tank in Pakistan Army.
