That BTR-3E with CPWS 30 look's good, very good. Wonder if they can propose whole modernization package for nations that have large (or even small) number of old BTR-80 hulls. 3E is only similar in appearance to 80 but I just wonder if they could mount CPWS 30 on it also. And I also wonder if they can put an CSE 90LP on BTR hull?
ReplyDeleteThat Cockeril XC-8 turret on a CV90 has all the making for a good light/medium tank for fire support and defensive anti-tank purposes. Secondly it looks like it would be a very useful piece of armour in various areas of the world where the standard MBT is just to big and heavy.
