France’s defence minister received his German counterpart on Friday to ink a deal between the two countries to build a next-generation battle tank.
Defence ministers of France and Germany met in Paris this Friday to ratify an agreement on a new joint tank project called the Main Ground Combat System (MGCS).
This formal agreement kick-starts the development of the first phase of the armoured vehicle, dubbed the ‘tank of the future’ – a project worth billions of euros.
The new battle tank is set to replace Germany’s Leopard 2 tank and France’s Leclerc.
I have not heard that. That would be cool.
There has been talk of moving more electric but I haven’t seen much.
The problem is the haters. If done right it’ll make our military even more lethal.
