The modernised version of the MBT-23. It adds extra composite armour to the hull, spaced composite armour to the turret, new modelled tracks, and a new RCWS combined 20mm cannon. There is also a rotatable gunner's sight now in the front of the turret. All sights have also been upgraded to have infrared vision as an extra. -STATS- 105mm Scratching Rifled Cannon (useful for firing HESH) 20mm anti-personnel autocannon turret (with in-built commander RCWS) Gunner rotatable sight on top of the turret. Small cameras mounted near the sides of the hull to add direct left and right vision to the driver. Thermal, night vision and IR sights for the gunner, driver and commander. All-metal tracks for ultimate off-road capability Crew of 4 (Commander, Loader, Gunner and Driver) RXT Composite armour, made by Scratch Tanks, used in the promise that G.M.I. will give them a share of 24.8% of the profit that we get from the tank. Extra spaced external composites on front and side (consisting of 20% ceramic, 40% RHA and 40% vacuum, measuring a combined 45mm in thickness) ERA armour is also seen around the hull Cage armour around the sprocket and engine compartment 25mm aluminium shielding on the commander's cupola SAPSS-2 Hard-kill APS (made by Scratch Tanks) on top of the turret facing the front left and another facing the front right. Blowout panels, of course. I have also noticed some missing stats from the original MBT-23, so I'll add some on this version below: -MBT-23M additional stats- Weighs 63.5 Metric tons (regular MBT-23: 59 metric tons) Engine: Zero 10.5L twin-turbocharged diesel W12, 1,670bhp, top speed 49.5mph, acceleration 0-60mph in 4.5 seconds (regular MBT-23: Zero 9.0L gas turbine, 1,420bhp, top speed 48mph, acceleration 0-60mph in 5.3 seconds)
It's 20% more expensive than the regular MBT-23 if bought new, upgrades cost 10% of original price. Since I don't know tank prices, I'll say the MBT-23 was about the price of a Leo 2A5. - 1,000 bought by Kingdom of Francia - 90 bought by Democratic Republic of Blagere - 2 Bought by Antanislava
