T-80UK- smaller, harder to hit. has ATGWs fire to 5km. SHTORA protects them from missiles. fast

Challeger 2- kicks ass. tough armour, good gun but slow.

M1A2- good armour and tank. fast but high heat signature.

Leopard 2- fast. similar to M1A2

Leclerc- looks cool.

some of these facts may or may not be true. i can't remeber some facts.

Given that they all fire DU APFSDS rounds, each has an equal chance to win. It all depends on who shoot first.

[AllStarZ]

None. A helicopter comes in and destroys them all.

[MIKEY]

Im sorry, but the Challenger II is not a slow tank, a slow tank is somthing like a Type-90 (not the Chinese Type-90, the Japanese tank).

Anywhoo, I vote for the tank that has the most air power backing it (The M1-A2).

[Stinger]

The British Challenger II because they have the best trained crews in the world.

Challenger II. Sturdy as a bloody rock and backed by the greatest experience in tank warfare an army could ever have.
Close second would be the Leopard; great allrounder, very economical an supported by experience which is almost as good.

Challenger 2, gotta be patriotic, may i also note, the longest range active combat tank on tank kill was by a Challenger 1 in desert storm

[Mr. Mylo]

Challenger II. Only one of those with cup-of-tea-making facilities.

[Sgt. Nuker]

Merkava Mk. IV

It's the only tank that can double as a troop transport and comes from a nation that doesn't take "war" lightly.

[AZZKIKR]

alas, a T-80UK has defence systems to protect itself against missiles

[TehKiller]

M-95 Degman....accurate ,fast ,fairly armored and it can fire Sniper shells

[mig31]

T-90, one of my favorite tanks, Reactive armor Kontakt-5, SHTORA-1 system, max speed: 60km/h

[Ilves]

M-95 is T-72 upgrade. If so, better take T-90 - a much more deep upgrade of T-72 with all its advantages + times better figures

And Challenger II is Western world's slowest tank, really. No offense

M1A2 is maybe not a bad in tank vs. tank combat but is total bullshit when it comes to tank vs. RPG. Also this bunch of metal costs such much, that for its price you can buy 3-4 T-90s which are more effective and technological.

I would vote for Leopard 2A6 kwk as it's Western world's best tank by all parametres, better then both M1 and Challengers (sorry comrades patriots, but it is so).

But T-80UK can pwn any of the listed tank from 5 km by only one ATGM missile shot. By today no other tank of these can't fire its weapons from such range. Also all this tanks haven't got ERA, so one good pointed AT-12 Sniper will be enough to be lethal for them. So I would give my vote to this tank, but I give it to as T-90 having all T-80UK features is better at parameters.

Just facts, no nationalism.

Hassan, your logic never fails to crack me up

[AZZKIKR]

logic wins all...

If this was a real battle, Panthers and King Tigers would win hands down, just on the sake of awesomeness.

"In addition to this, the new MRM-KE (Mid-Range-Munition Kinetic Energy) is also in development. Essentially a cannon-fired guided round, it has a range of roughly 12 km and uses a KE warhead which is rocket assisted in its final phase of flight. This is intended to be the best penetrator yet, an improvement over the US 3rd generation DU penetrator (estimated penetration 790 mm)." -Wiki

For the M256 smoothbore IIRC. That definitely outranges 5km

[Ilves]

After 5 km of flight it won't have a lot of chances to pierce Relikt or even Kontakt-5
Also sit & wait till it comes into service By time when it comes there will be Black Eagle tank in serial production and T-95. Why we won't also count them if you count MRM-KE?

M256 = American copy of German Rheinmetal L55 cannon. The same gun is also mounted on Type-90

Black eagle project is dead....................................
