It is worth mentioning that Thailand bought the Chinese VT4 tank mainly because of its price conscience and advanced performance. Because the Chinese VT4 main battle tank is generally considered to be comparable to the American M1A2 Abrams tank and the German Leopard 2 tank, but the price is far different. The US military’s M1A2 Abrams tank cost 4.5 million U.S. dollars, but the export price of bare metal is at least 8.5 million U.S. dollars, while the German Leopard 2 tank top configuration has reached 20 million U.S. dollars. In contrast, the price of Chinese tanks is “conscience”. Z5z
