The MBT Revolution at a glance:
Protection concept: Comprehensive protection from all current threats,
including RPG 7, landmines, IEDs, bomblets, large-calibre KE ammunition and EO-, IR- and laser-guided weapons.
Digital turret core system: Fully integrated network capabilities, fully interoperable subsystems and components, with significantly shorter reaction times and smaller additional space requirements.
Fire control technology: An improved first round hit probability, especially when firing on the move.
New commander's periscope: Night fighting and observation capabilities, improved range and higher elevation angles (up to 70°).
Situational awareness system: 360° day and night near-field view of the vehicle's immediate surroundings, with automatic alarm and target-tracking functions.
Command and control system: New capabilities include real-time blue force tracking and red force visualization, augmented reality and MIP-DEM-based interoperability.
Commander's brake: A revolutionary innovation that enables the commander to stop the tank in critical situations.
Secondary armament: State-of-the-art remote control weapon station, fully stabilized and flexibly configurable.
Ammunition: The world's first temperature-independent KE tank round and the latest generation of programmable HE ammunition.
Climate control: High performance air conditioning coupled with a new insulation concept in the fighting compartment, improved ventilation and thermal protection for the magazine.
Auxiliary power unit: High electric power generation (17 kW) and optimized intelligent energy balance of the vehicle.
External two-way communications system: Enables the crew to communicate with people outside of the tank.
Embedded logistics: Provides comprehensive monitoring of vehicle- and weapon system-relevant logistical data; linked with a central logistical information and evaluation system.
Weight class: MLC 70
