The New German Tank, The Lynx 120, Attracts The Interest Of International Buyers. Discover The Innovations Of The Lynx 120, That Incorporates The Chassis Of The Former KF 41.

Rheinmetall has just launched the latest addition to the company’s next-generation Lynx combat vehicle family. The Düsseldorf-based technology group has now developed a mechanized fire support variant of the Lynx KF41 IFV. In this article, you will learn all about the new German tank.

New Tank Can Be Enhanced With New Technologies And Become Even More Powerful

Called Lynx 120, this new unique platform combines a proven turret concept and a 120 mm smoothbore cannon with the chassis of the former Lynx KF 41. The new mechanized fire support variant of the new German tank offers the user excellent fire support and anti-tank capabilities.

Thanks to a well-balanced mix of lethality, protection, mobility, and survivability, the Lynx 120 is the perfect additional battlefield asset for users of the Lynx platform. With ready-to-use components, meticulous engineering reduces the weight of the vehicle, while customizable protection packages complete the offering.

Using the Lynx KF 41 modular chassis and a scalable large-caliber turret concept, the Lynx 120 is a high-performance solution, housing vast growth potential and guaranteed overcoming capability.

Recently, Rheinmetall Defense Australia unveiled a variant of the Lynx Combat Support Vehicle (CSV): now there is also the fire support version. The basic idea behind the Lynx 120 design concept is to provide a combat system that delivers maximum operational performance combined with logistical advantages within a reasonable timeframe at a realistic cost.

The vehicle’s primary armament is a Rheinmetall 120 mm smoothbore gun, derived from the main armament of the Leopard 2. It can fire programmable DM11 next-generation high-explosive (HE) projectiles.

Its secondary armament includes a coaxial machine gun. Additionally, the commander’s independent weapon station will feature an additional .50 cal machine gun. A 360° camera system with automatic target detection and tracking reduces the crew’s workload in all operational scenarios.

New Tank Can Defeat Anti-Tank Missiles

Special protection modules allow for mission-specific responses to ballistic threats, improvised explosive devices (IEDs), explosively formed penetrators, and artillery fire, and can be quickly mounted with limited tools.

Moreover, the Lynx 120 can be readily equipped with the already proven Rheinmetall Active Defense System, or ADS, to defeat rocket-propelled grenades and anti-tank missiles. Additional armor packages and active protection systems can be provided upon request.

Several nations are interested in acquiring the new German tank as a next-generation substitute for their outdated fleets. The platform is currently a strong contender in the modernization plans for the Australian and Slovak IFVs and is competing for the U.S. Optional Manned Fighting Vehicle (OMFV) program.

The oldest tree in the world, alive since before the birth of Jesus Christ, is cut down in a scientific study and the case changes environmental preservation rules.

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows an unlikely oasis in the Saudi Arabian desert, protected by a terrain that slows the advance of sand, surrounded by green circles, remnants of an extinct lake and nearly 10,000 years of preserved history.

While in Brazil a 10-story building takes 2 years to complete, in China a company stacks pre-fabricated modules and raises the entire building in just 28 hours and 45 minutes.

An entire island in the Pacific wants to surround itself with a colossal barrier against the ocean to try to escape increasingly violent waves and not be swallowed by the sea in the coming decades.

After ten days orbiting the Moon, science confirms that the astronauts of the Artemis II mission return with altered bodies.

With 7.4 trillion tons of artificial snow pumped in 10 years, an extreme operation could stabilize the West Antarctic ice sheet and prevent a sea level rise of more than 3 meters, but it would require snow cannons, ocean water, and energy on an almost industrial scale at the end of the world.

Peru built a tunnel at an altitude of 4,738 meters cutting through the Andes Mountains, and the road leading to it reaches 4,818 meters, making it the highest paved road in the entire world.

Weighing less than 250 grams and comparable in size to a smartphone, a microdrone with 3D-printed propellers reaches 340.78 km/h and enters the Guinness World Records as one of the fastest electric quadcopters ever built.

China imposes billion-dollar fines on seven e-commerce platforms after violations in food delivery and pressures the sector to correct flaws that affect trust, food safety, and consumer experience.

Scientists have found the most sought-after ingredient for batteries hidden inside a mineral that everyone thought was useless — and the discovery could eliminate the need to open new lithium mines…

Multinational Ocyan opens offshore position for those who want to work on board in Macaé (RJ) as a Piping Designer; the job offers health insurance, life insurance, and more.
