Who is better in the M1A1 tank or the Type 59 tank?

M1A1 is even more powerful.

m1a1 parameter.

Combat weight tons.

Power: Gas turbines.

Maximum speed: 66km/h

Main gun: M-256 120mm 44x diameter smoothbore gun.

It is equipped with an independent hunting and destroying system and has information-based combat capabilities.

59D tank:

The total combat weight is 34 tons.

Power: Diesel.

Maximum speed: 50km/h

Main gun: 100 mm rifled gun.

The use of infrared headlights and laser rangefinders has limited ability to fight at night, and does not have the ability to conduct information-based operations.

The upgraded 59D tank, equipped with 105 tank guns and a new fire control system, has basically reached the level of the second-generation tank.

Of course, it's Type 59, and all the equipment of our army is based on 59. All the technical equipment is just 59 changes.

The M1A1 is the benchmark of the third-generation main battle tank, and the Type 59 is a typical first-generation main battle tank, which barely reaches the second-generation level after modification, and the gap between the two is self-evident...

It is very certain that the M1A1 is stronger, and although the 59 Magic Change is obvious to all, even the 59's Ultimate Magic Change 96B is still far from the M1A1.

Or M1A1 is powerful, after all, it is several generations higher than 59.

Magic 59 can't do the old version of M1A1, it's a bad generation.

The generation gap is in the **.

As long as I don't send it. M1 Hanging 59

It is still equipped and uses the new model 59D for its own use

ZTZ59D medium main battle tank is the latest improvement of the first generation of domestic main battle tanks of our army, with a total combat weight of 37 tons, a gun caliber of 105 mm, and a long-barreled Type 83A 105 mm rifled tank gun, armor-piercing power, when firing Type 86 wing stabilized bombs at a distance of 2000 meters, the armor-piercing capacity is 480 mm: when launching Type 93 extended wing stabilized bombs, the armor-piercing capacity is close to 540 mm; When firing the depleted uranium wing stabilized bomb, the armor-piercing capacity is close to the level of 600 mm homogeneous steel plates.

In terms of firepower alone, it is on par with the Japanese Type 90 tank.

The 59D tank can also launch a 105 mm caliber artillery missile developed by our country, with a maximum range of kilometers and a maximum armor-piercing depth of 700 mm. Type 59 mm parallel machine guns, one course machine gun each with 3,000 rounds of ammunition; 40 shells in base; Simple and practical fire control system: the vehicle uses a light point injection fire control system and an integrated two-way stabilized gun aiming system, the second generation of light points; The ability to fight at night, equipped with a simple thermal imager, can observe tank targets at a distance of up to 2,000 meters at night or under complex warehouse conditions, and has the ability to shoot at moving targets in a stationary and short-stop state at night and day; Tank protection capabilities:

The turret 520 mm [with ** double anti-armor] the hull 490 mm with ** double anti-armor, the car is equipped with a high-efficiency automatic fire extinguishing and explosion suppression device, which can extinguish the fire within 10 milliseconds; With a crew of 4 people, the tank also uses the old 59 Tan old power system for the cost of retrofitting. The driver is equipped with low-light night vision devices or infrared night vision devices, and the nuclear, biological and chemical protection system has a collective three-defense device and a smoke screen bomb is launched.

The Type 59 medium tank is a medium tank developed by China, with reference to the Soviet-style T54A medium tank. It has strong firepower, good armor protection and maneuverability, light weight, small size, simple structure, reliable work, and convenient use and maintenance. The total combat weight of the tank is 34 tons, the crew is 4 people, the maximum speed is 50 kilometers per hour, and the maximum range is 560 kilometers.

The main ** has 1 100 mm rifled gun (see Artillery) with a combat rate of fire of 4 rounds, 1 mm anti-aircraft machine gun and 2 mm machine guns, equipped with infrared night vision devices for night driving. The armor in the bow and sides of the hull was thick, the turret was streamlined, and it had good bullet resistance.

In 1959, the first Type 59 medium tanks were produced and finalized. The main performance indicators and structure of the tank are basically the same as those of the Soviet-style T54A medium tank. In the early 60s, the development and application of new armor steel created conditions for the mass production of Type 59 medium tanks.

In the 70s, according to the reaction of the troops and the development of tank technology, the improvement of the Type 59 medium tank was gradually carried out, during which the development of many experimental prototypes was carried out, and the development of the -2 and Type 59-2A medium tanks was completed. In the 80s, serial production of Type 59 medium tanks was discontinued, but work continued on the improvement and modernization of the Type 59 tank.

At present, a large number of China's equipment is 96 change, a small number of equipment 99 and 99 change, 59 is basically not much. Retirement began in the 80s in 59.

But seriously, 59 can be changed to the point where it can no longer be called 59.

59 is okay, have you heard of the fact that the US military M1A1 overturned too heavily in Iraq? A car that is not too heavy will not sink into it when driving on some dirt ground, for example.

The old American M1 was too heavy, and it overturned as a result. There are quite a few that destroy themselves.

Equipped with it, although China has Type 99 main battle tanks, the number of equipment is not too much, and Type 59 is still in service in large quantities in the troops, and it is often seen during training. But I think it's definitely an improved one.

In addition to the front-line troops on the border and new military forces like special forces, marines, inland troops, armed police. The SWAT is all modernized and modified 59.

The state of the ** system of the Type 59 main battle tank is that the 100-mm rifled gun uses grenades, armor-piercing shells, armor-piercing shells. The ammunition base is 34 rounds. The maximum firing range is 16000 meters.

The direct range of fire with armor-piercing shells is 1070 meters, and with armor-piercing shells - 1000 meters; The lethality of using grenades is 31 13 meters. The auxiliary light machine gun was equipped with 3000 rounds, and the anti-aircraft machine gun had 500 rounds.

The gun had a one-way stabilizer and an electric turret transmission. Ranging with a sight, observation and aiming with optical instruments. It is also equipped with infrared night vision and can be used for night driving. Ammunition is loaded manually.

The transmission and control are mechanical. The main transmission components are a metal sheet dry clutch, a fixed-shaft gearbox with a synchronous shift mechanism, a two-stage planetary steering mechanism, a one-stage meshing lateral transmission mechanism, etc. The action part is a single-pin dry metal track, with 5 pairs of double-rim large-diameter load wheels, as well as torsion bar suspension, vane-type hydraulic shock absorption device, etc.

The Type 59-1 medium tank, the artillery in terms of starting hit rate, protection and maneuverability, the Type 59-1 tank has been greatly improved compared with the ear bark, and has accumulated experience for the continuous improvement of the old armored equipment.

From the point of view of its structure, the Type 59-1 medium tank has made 19 improvements on the basis of the Type 59 medium guess poor tank, and the biggest feature of the improved Type 59-1 medium tank is that it implements the "humanistic spirit" and fully embodies the "people-oriented".
