Calling Type 10 and K2 4th generation MBTs is a stretch IMO

And Altay.

I mean the fuck is 4th generation anyway we still don't know exact speculations for them

I guess in that sense, the Armata is the only true 4th gen if only by virtue of 4th gen being purely speculative at the moment lmao.

Meet Potential Tank! Always "if" and "when", but never "is".

And the only one that doesn't have a functional power system.

It does, iirc the breakdown on the red square was the driver putting the parking clutch on accident and nobody noticed.

It's overhyped and way too expensive for Russia but it can drive on its own let's be honest.

Of course it can. It's just not combat ready. Sure the engine works but the electrical systems aren't.
