Turkey will equip the Altay MBT with its own engine

The Turkish Altay main battle tank will receive a domestic engine, Ankara announced the development of its own power plant, which should replace the German engine originally planned for the Turkish tank.

As a power plant for the Altay MBT, it is planned to use an engine called Batu, the development of which started in 2018 at the facilities of BMC (a Turkish-Qatari company that previously won an engine development contract). The work on the new unit will be carried out by Otokar.

Batu is an engine-transmission unit consisting of a diesel engine and an automatic transmission. The engine should have a power of 1600 hp. Other parameters of the new power plant were not reported, and the timing of the start of its serial production is also unknown.

Note that the Turkish Altay tank is almost ready for mass production, everything depends on the lack of an engine for it. As you know, South Korea itself is experiencing difficulties in creating an engine for its own tank, and Germany has banned the supply of MTU MT883 engines due to the arms embargo imposed on Turkey.

The agreement on the design of the Altay tank was concluded in 2007, the first sample of the Altay tank was presented in May 2011 at the IDEF-2011 arms exhibition in Istanbul, in 2018 the development and testing process of the tank was completed, after which the start of its production was announced.

The tank weighs 60 tons, while it can reach speeds of up to 70 km / h. The vehicle is equipped with a reservation system from the Roketsan company, as well as active protection and fire control systems developed by Aselsan. In addition, Altay tanks will be equipped with radiation and chemical threat detection systems. The 120mm smoothbore cannon is a copy of the Rheinmetall development, a South Korean hydropneumatic suspension.

+1 when they write about smart Arabs and other dark-haired people I ask - but don't you tell me what they invented? Well, or at least tell me what kind of machines they make, or what planes or ships they build, what kind of rockets they launch their satellites into space. Well, at least show them your phone.

Algebra, chemistry - these words are not in vain of Arabic origin. Al-jabr, al-hemi. Yes, the same numbers are also from the Arabs (although initially it was a modified Indian record).

Arabic numerals became known to Europeans in the XNUMXth century. The Indian system of numbers passed to the Arabs, who gave Indian numbers a slightly different form, from the Arabs this system called "Arabic numerals" spread throughout Europe. In Spain, the first cases of using Arabic numerals date back to the XNUMXth century, in other Western European countries - to the XNUMXth century, the widespread use of Arabic numerals in Western Europe began in the second half of the XNUMXth century.

In the Middle Ages, it was the Arabic language that was one of the main scientific languages. Any self-respecting European schoolboy had to know not only Latin, but also Arabic. Many fundamental scientific works of that time were published in Arabic. Science flourished in the Middle East then.
But the present-day Arabs were crushing, yes.

[Dodikson]

all this is nonsense and has long been disproved.
everything that is attributed to the Arabs was made by the Persians.
Well, about the Arabic numerals, you yourself noted that these are originally Indian numbers.

[Kuroneko]

Quote: Dodikson

Blessed is he who believes. However, I will not enter into polemics. I spoke about the Middle East in the first place. And there the Persians, and the Arabs, and the Moors pushed science in their time. When unwashed European barbarians lagged behind.

[Dodikson]

before starting an argument, it is worth tightening up at least basic knowledge.
Persians are Indo-Europeans if Th.

[Kuroneko]

Quote: Dodikson

before starting an argument, it is worth tightening up at least basic knowledge.

Here it is not necessary to la-la, otherwise I can seriously beat with arguments. Pull up YOUR knowledge first, but thanks for not mentioning the Aryans.
I do not defend modern Arabs (I have already said above, they were crushed), but you clearly have dislike for them, turning into racism. And the medieval Arabs did a LOT for science. It is a fact. Live with it, even if it is a fact and unpleasant to you. Goodbye.

[Dodikson]

you will tell your fairy tales to someone else, I studied this question quite well 10 years ago.
and all Arab scholars and discoveries ALWAYS boiled down to Persians.
therefore, Arab science began to develop along with the Arab conquests, and reached its peak after the conquest of Central Asia. and after the Arab conquests ended, for some reason oops. and the science of the Arabs is over.
for the Europeans, for some reason, it began and never ended again, for the Asians it began and although it lagged behind the European one, it still continued to live, but some Arabs for some reason died right after the Arabs stopped importing foreign scientists.
what a strange science among the Arabs.

Work on the engine is carried out in cooperation with Fiat \ Iveco engineers, who provide technical advice, and develop individual components of the power unit. For the money of Turkey and Qatar.

Batu is an engine-transmission unit consisting of a diesel engine and an automatic transmission. The development of the engine started at the facilities of BMC (Turkish Automobile Company) after the conclusion of a contract with the country's defense department in 2018. Work on the engine is carried out in cooperation with Fiat \ Iveco engineers, who provide technical advice, and develop individual components of the power unit. It is known that the diesel engine will receive a turbine, which will provide an output of 1600 hp. This figure can hardly be called excessive, given the tank's mass of 64 tons. The rest of the parameters of the new power unit, and the timing of its serial production have not yet been reported.

their helicopter is a European mongoose, their MANPADS is a Stinger, their anti-ship missiles is a Harpoon, I remember they did some other air defense systems MD, so this is also a Stinger.

Due to the lack of a modern economical and lightweight engine in Russia, SibNIA decided to install a Honeywell TRE-2-62 turboprop engine with 331 horsepower instead of the AS-12IR piston. The engine can run on various fuels, including aviation kerosene and gasoline.



The plane performed its first flight on September 5, 2011. During flight tests of the aircraft, the declared characteristics were confirmed, compared to the original An-2, almost all of them improved by 15-20%, and the flight range with full load increased by 1,5 times. The aircraft began to consume 10% less fuel. Flying on kerosene allows about 20 thousand rubles. reduce the cost of a flight hour, because this fuel is 5 times cheaper than gasoline.

The An-2 aircraft upgraded in this way received the designation TVS-2MS. The abbreviation TVS-2MS stands for "turboprop aircraft - 2 crew members, modernization of SibNIA". The abbreviation "An" had to be abandoned in the name of the car, since it was registered at the Ukrainian state enterprise "Antonov".

Let's learn. The VK-1600 engine is suitable for a corn machine.

A new line of engines is being created at UEC: VK-650 in the power class of 400-700 hp, as well as VK-1600 in the power class of 1300-1700 hp. The power of the first engine will make it possible to use it in the Ka-226, Ansat and VRT-500 helicopters, the second is intended for the Ka-62 helicopter. These will be completely new, modern power plants, developed taking into account the requirements of the world market, both in terms of technical characteristics and in terms of life cycle costs.

For the VK-650 engine, preliminary design has already been completed, working design documentation has been issued, at the end of 2020 it is planned to create a demonstrator engine, and in 2021 - the first prototypes. We plan to carry out certification in 2023. We plan to certify VK-1600 in the same time frame.

https://news2.ru/story/605967/

Gazelles use domestic engines from the Zavolzhsky Motor Plant and the Ulyanovsk Motor Plant. Here you are wrong.

You accused me of being an agent of the bulk and all lies! What am I wrong?

Do you lie down with this name and stand up with this name? Leave him alone. I didn't blame anyone for anything.

[Asad]

These engines are 50 years old, the only thing that is modern, American-Chinese fireplaces.

[Dodikson]

Americans fly on engines which are also 50 years old and do not blow up. why do we need to do something new so that the main thing is not the old one? Usually smart people do something new when the old does not suit them, and if they do, then no one does anything new. even an extra bolt is not added.

[Togilen]

ZMZ engines have not been used in GAZelles for a long time (after the purchase of the plant by Sollers). Now the main engine is Foton Cummins ISF 2.8 or Huadong ISF 2.8 (the name is different, in fact the same) and the engines of the Ulyanovsk Motor Plant, Evotech 2.7 / 3.0

[Zaurbek]

Kamins imposed sanctions on GAZ and the Chinese began to supply Huadong. The difference is one - Red, Chinese - black ......
It is difficult to impose sanctions with China, they do not care. Lizba was on sale.

[Togilen]

Sorry we didn’t manage to create it for the “maize” and pissed away two R&D “Chaika” and “Universal”. There are 5,5 people in SKB ChTZ (figuratively), and NAMI forces were thrown into the creation of a Putin carrier (aka Aurus).
What was really able to create and test on BTT is the YaMZ-780 diesel. We have practically its analogue KAMAZ-920.13-750 (and this is cooperation with Liebherr). Plus sign to you

[Zaurbek]

Putinovoz will give the country 2,2 turbo -240hp, 4,4 turbo, 6,6 turbo ....... and on the basis of a 12-cylinder - aviation. There are also some 550 hp GAZ diesel engines. of the new ones.

[Togilen]

There are no GAZ diesels for a long time. The GAZ Group includes YaMZ (controlling stake), which has a military YaMZ-780 (up to 730 forces) and a civilian YaMZ-770 (up to 550 hp). GAZ diesels have been produced since 92 under the KHD license (with their own modifications, a different volume, the drive of the blower with a shaft and not a belt, etc.) GAZ-542/544/5441 (with TKR), a new plant was built, then the project was closed for fiat production (which never began to be produced), after that, at the facilities of the ZDD, they began to produce GAZ-560/562 to equip the GAZel and Volga, tried it on the GAZ-3308, but the results were unsatisfactory and MMZ-245.7 was delivered to Sadko.

I hope that not a fig will work.
I read the translations of the comments from the websites of the Turks, they really consider themselves a superpower that will make the planes twice, the tank is riveted like a tractor in the cold, you just need to warm it up, otherwise they don't have a damn thing, they don't even have a brain for this, only poke what they say we did bayraktar. and the fact that there is only an assembly of Turektsky, they do not care. for that, they are sure that they will make the 5th generation aircraft themselves in 7-6 years.

Erdogan worked for this for a long time, and now it happened. The French refused to supply the "baikartars", the Germans - in the engines for the tanks. It's time to start import substitution. Delov there - just start and finish. It will keep the cheerful Turks busy for a while.

[Dodikson]

it takes more of a brain. but when they are not ...

[Thrifty]

1600 l / s is not enough for a tank weighing 60 tons. Moreover, the tank will undergo modernization over time, and in the process of operation the mass will grow. And the engine simply won't pull the tank. Now you need to have a capacity of 1850 -1900 l / s so that the tank has a modernization reserve for the future.

[Sailor]

Altai is a tank with serious capabilities, and I will notice it against us, but we still have an "under-modernized" T-72. T-90 (A) about 500 pcs. About the modernization of "M" only talk, but should be built and massively at least 1000 pieces. since we do not build Armata. Now the events are repeating the pre-war events of 41, and I'm afraid they will repeat themselves, but we only have no industry, they sold it, destroyed it.

in the states in Oregon, nothing was left from the Abrams plant either, and more than 25 years ago, tell me how the states collapsed and nothing is done there, because the whole plant in Oregon is collapsed.

[Dodikson]

and what does Altai have of the capabilities that the old T-72 does not have?

[Alex777]

Altai with Armata should be compared.
The minus is not mine.

[Dodikson]

there is nothing to do with the Armata, except that both tanks.
Altai is a castrated Korean Black Panther.
which is essentially updated by Asians leo2, only the Panther has a KAZ. and Altai does not have it, because as Altai already wrote it is a castrated Panther.

[Togilen]

The tank comparison is a horse suspended in the air in a vacuum. All this comparison is at the level of performance characteristics, operation and real military operations. And not by pictures and speculation.

[Alex777]

suspended in the air horse in a vacuum

Rjunimagu.

[Dodikson]

then Armata is the bottom, and Abrams is a super tank, because Armata did not fight, and Abrams went through a bunch of wars.

[Sailor]

Look at the performance characteristics and see.

[Dodikson]

I looked, moreover, I knew them before, so I will repeat my question, what does Altai have of the capabilities that the old T-72 does not have?
You said that Altai is a type of serious tank with serious capabilities and so on, so I ask you to answer my question, you should know on the basis of what your opinion is, so I think it will be easy to answer my question for you.

[Zaurbek]

Shaft ... cannon, armor, control system, optics, communications ... ... will shoot right through with modern BOPS

[Dodikson]

that is, the T-72 has no armor, a gun and an FCS, optics and communications?
new optics and control systems can be installed on the T-55, let's write about the ultra-modern T-55 tank.
By the way, the Turks put a 60mm gun on the M-120.
hmm ... now the M-60 has become an ultra-modern tank.

[Zaurbek]

Yes .... but take the most modernized T72 and compare. All the information that a modern tank will fire from a greater distance and penetrate

[Dodikson]

Once again, on the T-72 you can put ANY optics, OMS, moreover, the T-90, if that became the T-90 by order of Borukh Eltsyn, because it was originally called the T-72BU.
that is, what is on the T-90 can be put on the T-72 because the T90 is the T-72.
moreover, I will write again - the MOST MODERN optics, communications and control systems can be installed even on the T-34 if desired, but this will not make the T-34 a modern tank.
and the T-90M, which is a modification of the T-72, ALREADY bypasses Altai.
You could write easier, since Altai is a new tank model. then new optics, OMS and communications are installed on it, which no one will install on the old T-72 because it is not profitable. that would be right.
and so the T-72 can be so modeled that Altai will not stand next to it, because Altai is a castrat of the Leopard renewed by the Koreans2.
and in fact is still the same old tank as Leo2. that is, Altai is an old Leo2 on which new electronics were hung. and you can also attach new electronics to an old tank using the example of the T-72 and T-55.

[Zaurbek]

Altai - T90M level ... if you will, the final upgrade of the T72. Only the cannon is lame 2a46, although it was planned to 2a82, which is on the Armata.

[Dodikson]

Altai did not stand next to the T-90M, on which, by the way, 2a82, 2a46 are on the export version.
there is not even AZ in Altai, the same loader that was in Leo2 and Abrams.

[Ros 56]

And what about us? Or do you offer them to sell our engine?

[Zaurbek]

You can also sell (a finished product) ..... if we can mass-produce an X-diesel with a box. But here, too, the problem is that the ass needs to be redesigned.

[Lord of the Sith]

As a power plant for the Altay MBT, it is planned to use an engine called Batu, the development of which started in 2018 at the facilities of BMC (a Turkish-Qatari company that previously won an engine development contract)

History of creation and production
The tank was named in honor of Army General Fakhrettin Altai. (1880-1974), who commanded the 5th Cavalry Corps during the Turkish War of Independence 1919-1923 [1].

In March 2007, an agreement was signed between the Secretariat of the Defense Industry (SSM) of the Turkish Defense Ministry and the Turkish company Otokar to create the first Turkish tank Altay [9]. The contract was signed following a tender in which the German company KMW also participated.

In turn, Otokar entered into an agreement in July 2008 with a South Korean company Hyundai Rotem on the joint development of a new tank and in the creation of a new combat vehicle, the experience gained by the Koreans when creating their own tank was widely used "K2 Black Panther"... The cost of this agreement was $ 500 million. According to the Turkish side, Altai borrowed 60% of the technologies used in K2... Nevertheless, the development took place within the framework of the "Project for the production of a modern tank using national sources" [10].

The first sample of the tank was presented to the public on May 11, 2011 at the IDEF-2011 arms exhibition, which was held in Istanbul [8].

The development of a tank gun will be the same.
Most importantly, there is technology and production experience.

[Maxwrx]

Well, the issue with the engine, but still resolved in the medium term for Turkey, but the gun itself is also Rheinmetall and Germany is unlikely to supply. There are even fewer alternatives with a cannon. in fact, in the caliber of 120mm, new guns in this caliber are produced by Germany, all the rest are made either on its basis (even in the Abrams), or in part Germany makes and England with a rifled cannon. They will not be able to develop their own gun in the foreseeable future.
So if you want to have your own tank, you will need to switch to 125mm

Koreans do it themselves, Jews, Americans .... the French have their own 120mm, the Japanese. There are no problems with Korean products and the export of tanks. The Germans are putting sticks in their wheels and now Europe.

Since when did the Japs have their own cannon? They have the same l44 rheinmetal, they just called it differently and slightly adjusted the fastening methods, if I'm not mistaken, everything else is the same. Do amers have their own? Amers have the same rheinmetal l44 (maybe 55 more, I don't remember).

She is licensed German, like everyone else. But they do it in Japan.

So that's the essence of what is licensed. Make your own or stupidly buy someone else's are two different things.

The gun is not a diesel engine .... it is all made of iron and in production no one thinks about Germany's opinion.

Damn ridiculous. Your guns are cast-iron pipes or what? It would be so simple - everyone would be stupid to do their own without problems and would not buy licenses. And Germany has already delivered cancer with an engine and transmission, and will supply with guns.

[Zaurbek]

Will not deliver. Their cannon is just standard. Japan and Korea have the same metallurgy as Germany. And they can make the whole product. China is asking us strongly in the production of a 125mm cannon? Or the British with a 105mm cannon?

Altay (Altay) is a promising Turkish main battle tank (MBT). The first sample of the tank was presented on May 11, 2011 ........ from the moment of the 1st sample for 9 years ... and there is no heart of the tank ... the engine ....

Altai is a tank with serious capabilities, and I will notice it against us, but we still have an "under-modernized" T-72. T-90 (A) about 500 pcs. About the modernization of "M" only talk, but should be built and massively at least 1000 pieces. since we do not build Armata. Now the events are repeating the pre-war events of 41, and I'm afraid they will repeat themselves, but we only have no industry, they sold it, destroyed it.

Altai it seems to exist, but in fact it is not, 4 prototypes have been released ..... T-90M has already been delivered in 2019 and in 2020 ...... this is by today. I will not specify the quantity ... but why "whine" then? Do not produce 1000 tanks a year as you want ???? There is something to do

[TermNachTer]

Rzhu nimagu)))) is almost ready - all that remains is the engine and transmission))) even for countries where tanks have been made for decades, it is not an easy task, sometimes it takes years. And here, tomorrow on the conveyor)))

[Zaurbek]

As practice shows, in such products, the product itself and the MTO must be bought and licensed from different manufacturers. But for this you also need to have trained personnel. For example, MTO can be purchased from Ukraine, but it is necessary to redesign the "back" of the tank. Or something like the T-80 with a turbine.

[TermNachTer]

When the power plant was created for one tank, it is sometimes very bad to shove it into another, and sometimes it turns out to be complete garbage.

[Zaurbek]

But no one then powders the brain about supplies.

[TermNachTer]

So still it is necessary to establish production. The Turks did not succeed with the "rotax", they bought some part in Austria. And here the engine is many times larger, heavier and more complex.

Koreans were able to Diesel, but could not drivetrain .... it remained MTU.

[smart fellow]

South Korea's engine is in perfect order - it has been completed. The problems remain with the transmission, but maybe they have already been resolved.
