FNSS KAPLAN MT Medium Tanks: Update in Indonesian Configuration
FNSS and PT Pindad have developed a comprehensive upgrade package for the medium tank named KAPLAN MT, configured for Indonesia. This system will expand its role in the inventory of the Indonesian army.
Medium Tank Concept
KAPLAN MT occupies an intermediate position between the main battle tank and the armored personnel carrier. It offers an optimized balance of armor and mobility for operations in tropical forests and soft terrains.
Special Upgrades for Indonesia
The upgrade package includes a cooling system optimized for tropical climates, local communication integration, and an improved fire control system.
Second Customer Expectations
FNSS has begun preliminary discussions with a second customer for KAPLAN MT in the Asian market. The Philippines, Malaysia, and Bangladesh are among the potential customers.
