    The autoloader is so special because it can also be loaded manually by a loader and, above all, the automatic system can unload already loaded bullets and load a different bullet that is required. So it is very flexible and very reliable. In addition, the rate of fire is unprecedented.
    Since the first shot hits/chance of destruction is very high, the tank also requires fewer projectiles.

      When looking at tanks in WW2, one must not forget that the Panther suffered the most from the extra weight placed on it. The original plan was for it to be significantly lighter. Is it any wonder that the transmission was not as robust as it was given the extra weight? It wasn't designed for that, but it could be quite durable for a sensitive driver. You should also not forget that many of the workers in the factories were not professionals; a lot of forced laborers were used - their motivation to deliver a great product was certainly not very high. The chassis was very comfortable and provided good traction, the gun was even superior to that of the Tiger 1, although it had a smaller caliber of 7.5cm. On the other hand, the muzzle velocity was significantly higher and therefore the penetration was better.

    Wow he got a lot wrong here, the 130mm has 50% more energy not velocity and yes that is a big difference. Secondly the 120mm also has programmable air burst ammo so that is not unique to the 130mm. He also got the range wrong, the 120mm can be effective far beyond 2,500m, the record tank kill with a 120mm was over twice that distance. All that said I do like this tank, I think it is a natural evolution of the MBT, integrating drone defense is a must have after the war in Ukraine.

    When a tank crew wants to hit something hard at long range they fire a round that releases a Tungsten or Depleted Uranium dart with a 22-24mm in diameter, what difference does it make if the gun bore is 120mm or 130mm?
    If the key to achieving longer range is dictated by gun bore then wouldn't the 125 x 6000mm D-81 gun used on Russian tanks outrange the 120 x 5,280mm Rh120 gun used on many western tanks?

    I was tanker and stationed in Germany from 1983 to 1986. I was trained on an M60A1 at Fort Knox. Was deployed to an M60A3 at my unit in Germany (L-Troop, 11th ACR) and then transitioned to the M1. The original M1. I was also present at range 301 in Grafenwöhr when the Copperhead laser guided artillery round was fired for the first time in Europe. With the copperhead round a forward observer held a laser on a tank or other target and it guided the artillery shell right to the target. That means with a forward observer a 155mm artillery shell could hit a point target from over 18 miles away…and this was in the 1980´s.
    The problem that repeats itself over and over again is that generals always fight the last war. Yes the KF51 is an extremely impressive tank and it would be dominant weapon system on the battlefield of last century. I repeat…last century.
    Back in the 1980´s and 1990´s the main mission of a tank was to destroy other tanks and armored vehicles. Back then nothing could be more effective than a direct fire weapon against an armored vehicle. I stress back then.
    Now not only are weapons guided they are also “smart” and communicate with each other.
    There are now GPS guided artillery shells known as Excalibur that can hit point targets up to 35 miles. All this system needs is a bit of guidance from a loitering drone and I see no reason it can not do what the copperhead could do 40 years ago. Is the Natter going to stop a falling artillery shell?
    I do not think the reactive armor will be much help either. The Excalibur is a 155mm artillery shell. I would not want to be in the turret when a 155mm shell hit the top of it plus having a reactive armor charges going off. I can imagine that both of these explosions will cause quite a shockwave.
    The main battle tank is an outdated weapon system. There are to many other weapon systems that can easily destroy it from a distance. Not only do these systems cost a lot less money and are easier to produce than a tank, they are also getting smarter and more accurate with every version of AI that is being introduced.

      Don't modern anti tank weapons fire the missile over the top of the the turret, then the missile shoots a projectile down and into the top of the turret. So it doesn't matter how much armour you have surrounding the main body of the tank. A bullet proof jacket isn't of much consequence if you get shot in the top of your head.

      Very interesting input. I have not served in a military, but I love war history and weapon technology. In WW2 it became obvious that the weapon will win over the armorprotection. So mobility and recon became more and more important. But now we entered the next stage. Stealth and active protection seems to be the way to go.

And even if the tank would be a cooperation then you would need to put the "German" first because the German side obviously would have much more stakes in it.

      The Swedish Stridsvagn 122 is nothing more than a modified Leopard 2. The KF51 shown here is also based on the chassis of the Leopard 2 and is therefore not a completely new development. That's not necessary, because the Leo2's hull and drive are excellent. The 130 caliber requires the autoloader for reasons of grenade weight. No human loader can lift the significantly heavier grenade in the time required. The programmable ammunition is also used in the Puma IFV, as well as in the MANTIS system and in the Skyranger and other models. This is not a Swedish specialty either.

    I am curious about the recoil baffle at the base of the main gun. It looks as though both its geometry and connection to the main barrel is designed to
    "vibrate away" the recoil shockwave. Static guns are a nightmare for the inside crew because of the sound waves. With the increase in shell size and extra 1000 Metre distance, I imagine the shape of this unusual coupler has some critical role in both reducing the internal shock and overall dispersion of vibration from the noise.
