MBT engine power and numbers   Ive edited the MBTs engine power  Im not sure why but english sources have the engine power rated at HP when the chinese reference have them at HPhttpwwwguanchacnmilitaryaffairssshtml As an export tank it would be more likely that the numbers are overstated than understated Hence I think the HP is more reliable  The source is an interview with a Norinco designer and he rattles off some numbers If anybody here would be an expert and determine their reliability I would be glad to include them  Frontal composite armor mm RHAe Frontal with ERA mm RHAe  APDS penetration mm mm with advanced penetrator  Infrared imaging system km range
