European countries are very strange, and it is difficult to develop a weapon and equipment on their own, so they find ways to jointly develop them, especially the main battle tank in the future. On the Russian-Ukrainian battlefield, both Europe's main battle tanks and the United States' main battle tanks have performed poorly, so Germany, the two major tank producers in Europe, intend to jointly develop the next generation of main battle tanks. Because in the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, they realized that their main battle tanks are really not good, so the two countries have now signed an agreement, that is, France and Germany will work together to develop the next generation of main battle tanks.
Then this next-generation main battle tank has a lot of technology that needs to be developed and improved. After all, in the Russian-Ukrainian military conflict, there are problems with both the "Leopard-2" tank and the French "Leclerc" tank. The "Leclerc" tank is more cunning and is not willing to provide Ukraine at all. But France has provided Ukraine with light tanks of French production, and the tanks are crumbling on the battlefield.
Then the "Leopard-2" tanks were destroyed one by one on the battlefield, and they were even taken to Moscow by Russia to exhibit and humiliate Germany.
As France and Germany, two old arms powers, they now have to consider jointly developing a new type of tank. This new tank is facing the future, facing a new type of battlefield, and it is particularly emphasized that the new tank must be able to fight against drones and other UAV-related systems. Earlier, the threat to tanks posed by the anti-tank equipment we mentioned has decreased, on the contrary, the threat posed by UAVs to tanks has increased significantly.
Then as countries such as France and Germany, they have to consider combining their own advantages. Of course, there is another point, which has to consider that one family will contribute half of the money to develop tanks and jointly occupy the European market. After all, the American "Abrams" main battle tank is not good, so these two countries need to develop a new type of tank to unify the status of tanks.
