if you have thousands of them, its not that easy to buy 2000 new tanks. turkiye will produce around 300 altay mbt's but the m60 will stay in service for longer time. even m48 are in service, mainly as stationar army base protection against pkk. why not. they do not face other tanks, only pkk fighters.

So no need to new tank chasis o guess :)

A new turret, a lighter one, certainly couldn't hurt. The performance of the M60 was always a little less sprightly than the M48 because of the weight of new turret. And, the new turret has a much lower profile. If gun depression wasn't sacrificed, then that's a plus as well. This seems like a more comprehensive approach to keeping an M60 fleet viable than Israel's Sabra program. My only concern is that, as shown, the hulls armor hasn't been upgraded. A lot of the weight saved in the turret has to go there.

Taiwan also has an abundance of M60 tanks. Maybe this retrofit turret could be purchased and used. My concern is electronics. New generation tanks have lots of onboard electronics that stay running even when parked and the main powerplant isn't running. Is there an auxiliary generator add-on available?

Nice new turret...great idea...but one of the M-60's big weaknesses is its heat signature from its engine and exhaust which makes it easy to spot and easier to hit. Having said that, if I had a bunch of M-60 tanks I think this new turret would be a great addition...well done.

Wow, I guess you've never crewed a tank have you? Every tank gives off heat. When you are moving 40 to 70 tons around, your engine is going to get a bit warm. The M60's engine gives off no more heat that the LEO's or a T-72. And and before you ask, I've seen both through TTS, so I know. Please don't confuse War Thunder with real life, trooper.

@@Waltham1892 I guess you know next to nothing about tanks and how to attack them. The M-60 tank was a relatively good tank but like all tanks it had particular weaknesses. One of the stand out weaknesses was it's heat signature...it was a very "hot" tank compared to others. The dual exhausts mounted right up on top of the rear deck literally glowed, especially at night. Many other tanks place their exhausts lower on the rear or at the sides where the heat signature is less visible to IR sensors. Tankers have to "warm up their vehicles", primarily to test their systems, recharge batteries, etc....well you could pick out M-60's even in hull down positions from a distance using IR scopes. It was one of the main criticisms of the tank.

With this turret system the gun options are an interesting choice. On the M-60 hull this turret is only available with the 105mm, while on the T-72 hull it's available with the 125mm or 105mm. With the 105mm gun it has a 18 rounds bustle autoloader, while with the 125mm gun it uses the carossel 22 rounds autoloader. In addition it's interesting that they didn't try to use the 120mm gun, which is the newer NATO standard

I still am not getting use to M60 without a fat turret

This package is not meant only for M-60 but also T-72s

I thought this tank was completely gone world wide. I personally took part in demilling thousands of the M60, the M60 starships and the M48's in the the last 90's. I would see M60's & M48's with 5hrs run time and 15/20 miles on them. By the time we was done with them they where 2x2 chunks of scrap metals and loaded into open top train box cars for melting. I can tell you that once the turret was removed from the M60 the suspension would raise up 4 foot and they would do every bit of 65mph and feel like you was floating across the earth.

Why is the side not protected ???

yeah so this is one of those light tank fire support vehicles, smaller gun and all....Altay is their main battle tank

Can put SPAAG turret on that chassis too.

2:30 how can 125 mm hold more rounds than 105? also what kind of auto loader is it since 125mm come as 2 piece ammo or is there 1 piece 125mm too?

@123asap6

Жыл бұрын

probably because the 125mm is 2 piece ammo meaning more can be crammed in the same space without total length of the round becoming an issue unlike with 105 where APFSDS shells are up to 1.1 meters long in some cases which is not conducive to storage within a tank.

It appears to have a LeClerc style bustle autoloader. So the rounds are lined up like matches in a matchbox. L7 105mm cartridge cases are larger in diameter at the base than 2A46 125mm propellant cases, which are about the same diameter as the projectile. This would account for the difference in round count.

Esa torreta se parece demasiado a la del t90m proryv. Pero su cañon no da mas que para cazacarros.

There's no intention from Turkish A.F. for this new turret design, since there's alr some mod. programs going for M60's in use. This one is more likely for international market, especially for intermediate armies who use T72&M60s as their MBTs. + no any clue for it's compatibleness on Leo2s.

Naw looks like it's mad small inside as I was a driver/ loader for the original M6A3(19f in the USA army) . The original weighted @ 57 tons Without track skirts.
