You can upgrade your optics and fire control and make it quite decent for daytime operations without replacing the IR lights with thermals....thermals are very expensive.

so lets say the iranian military and israel military met i know its not possible since there both far from each other lets say they met on the ground who would win

it's quite adequate with upgraded fire control......late model T-72s had better armor against KE than early M1s....

And i would like the source for KE protection.

SnoshiAnd i would like the source for KE protection.

and do tell what T-72 ending up with no turrets has to do with anything? hell a T-90 will also end up with no turret. thats just because of their ammo layout that leads to turrets being blown off after the tank is left burning and the ammo eventualy cooks off in the hull....its not like that happens directly from an enemy hit on the turret.

One F1BQ crashed in 2000 and another (unknown type) shot down on the Iran/Afghan border by a MANPADS (Stinger ?) used by local narco warlords in 2001.
