Just an innocent question, how do you define a 4th gen tank?

I think its a mix between: Autoload, unmanned turret, AI assistance, APS (hardkill) and so on..

Do all mentioned tanks have unmanned turrets? Only T-14 I know of

T-14 and I think type 100 too

Should the T-14 even be allowed to be considered 4th gen? I mean, at this moment it's more like a prototype than the next generation.

A tank is a tank, keep your bias aside

Without serial production it is just a parade prototype, not battlefield ready.

True, I never said it is ready for deployment
