Cyrassinian Ministry of Defence
Official Communique

For several decades, the Cyrassinian Army has operated the M-84A main battle tank as its primary armoured fighting vehicle. Now, as the entire Armed Forces continues to undergo modernisation, the time has come to replace these tanks with a more modern and capable system.

As such, the Ministry of Defence has put forth a tender to international defence contractors for a contract for adoption of a new MBT. The MoD plans to acquire up to 500 of these vehicles.

The performance of this new MBT must exceed that of the M-84As currently in service.

Most important characteristics:

Firepower, target detection, first hit probability, crew survivability, automation, efficiency, logistics, modularity, long service life (upgradeable), autonomy and battlefield awareness.

Requirements:

Armament:

Main gun: Ideally 55 caliber 120mm smoothbore with autoloader

Secondary: Coaxial MG, commander's MG on remote weapon station

Laser rangefinder, muzzle reference device, target track and lead, stabilisation, digital fire control system and ballistics computer

Performance:

Specifications: The weight should not exceed 70 tons, and should preferably be in the 50-60 ton range.

The speed of the new MBT should reach at least 70 kmh on road, 50 kmh offroad. Ideally, it will have a similar/the same reverse speed.

Components: Hydropneumatic suspension will be given special attention

The new vehicle should be powered by a diesel engine, with an under armour auxillery power unit. Special interest will be given to thermal signature reducing technology.

The tank must have a good power to weight ratio, special attention will be given to modular/easy to remove power packs, as well as ease of maintenance.

Protection:

The tank should have blow out panels for ammunition stowage in case of ammo cook off.

The tank's armour should be composite armour on front and turret.

There should be mounting ERA/NERA/Applique armour, as well as anti-RPG slat armour. The crew compartment must be protected from spalling with armoured lining.

For passive protection, the tank should be equipped with laser warning receivers, IR smoke dischargers, engine smoke systems, radio/IR jamming and automated fire extinguishers in the crew compartment.

Special attention will be given to advanced armour layouts and materials.

Systems
Independent thermals for the commander and gunner are a must, with panoramic CITV, hunter killer ability and integration with battle management systems and data-links.

The crew compartment must have full NBC protection and be air conditioned/climate controlled.

Delivery of this vehicle will be completed in cooperation with Cyrassinian industry, with manufacturing of components locally, for example ammo, computer technologies, turret casting and the engine. The tank should ideally come with accompanying bride layers, ARVs and CEVs of the same chassis.

The tender will be closed in 2 weeks, where the most promising products will be shortlisted. A winner selected in the following days.

I wish you all the best in this competition, and look forward to personally reviewing all of the designs.

Signed,
Abdul Hafiz, Ministry of Defence, Emirate of Cyrassinia

Tag for interest, what are the climatic requirements for the MBT? Should it be able to cross water and if yes how deep? Is air-transportability a wanted feature?

The tank should be able to run in hot and humid conditions, up to a temperature of 40 degrees celcius outside of the tank. The crew compartment should be conditioned appropriately to workable conditions, ideally below 25 degrees celcius. The tank will not be expected to operate in conditions below 8 degrees Celsius.

The MBT's weight restrictions should enable it to be transported by strategic airlift, a minimum of 1 per aircraft, optimally 2.

Water wading/snorkeling is not a requirement, but the ability to equip the vehicle with such provisions would be very welcome. Optimal deep water fording capability would be considered a maximum of 3 metres (in snorkel length.)

What is the wished terrain pressure and what types of difficult terrain should the vehicle be expected to traverse?

Are active protection systems welcome and if yes than what types of said APS are? Should they provide all-around coverage or be focused on the front of the vehicle?

About engines- would a gas turbine engine be acceptable? Although it is not a diesel engine per say, it is able to use diesel fuel. I understand that if a vehicle is expected to operate in desert it may be a problem, but it can be fixed by installing filters.

Esteemed Sir,

I write to you on behalf of Murakami Defense Industries. Our company would like to take part in the tender with our Medium Tank Type 1993 "Kusunoki Shigeharu".

It is important to note that while our design uses a Nifonese 121/L53 gun gun, it would not be a major issue to install a 120 mm gun should your excellency find such a feature desirable.

The ground pressure should aim to be around 11-12 psi. Expected terrain traversal would include dusty flatlands, Mediterranean shrub, inclines exceeding 30 degrees, loose rocks and sand.

Any APS is welcome, we currently have a requirement for soft-kill APS in the form of radio and IR jammers as stated, but we will assess hard kill APS as well. Any hard-kill APS should give as much coverage to the tank as possible.

If you can submit a multi-fuel gas turbine, we will of course assess such a system for suitability compared to competing designs.
