The tank is planned to have a 120-mm gun and can protect themselves from chemical, biological and radioactive attacks. Their maximum speed is 70 kilometers per hour, courtesy of a 1500-horsepower engine, and they can function under 4.1 meters of water. It will benefit from indigenous design and armor technology of K2 Black Panther thanks to the aggrement with South Korea. The final decision about the tank's engine is not clear. The candidates are German MTU Friedrichshafen or South Korean's future engine which is under development, currently.
