May: No, quite good, LtCol:I think we can be satisfied with the ‘crews’ reactions and performance inthis ‘exercise. By the way, hase you read the Defence Department’ latest report on buying new MBTS? ‘Maj The one discussing the possibility of replacing the Leopand? Ihave a copy of ton my desk athe moment Lt Cols Wel, you've jost seen the Leopard in action out here on the field, so what da yout thiok? Do you think the Australian Army shot buy nese tanks to replace the ole Leopard, or perhaps maybe look for another solution? Maj: You mean, investi light armoured vehicles instendl of new MBTS? LtCol: Uh-huh. ‘Maj: Well 'm not really sure. mean, first of all wehhave to remember that tanks are stil ‘one of the most important elements in a ‘combines! arms team ~9 combined arms unit often still needs tanks, Without tanks, the infantry are mone exposed ~ more out in the ‘open ancl so the enemy ean attack them more ‘easily... and of course, without tanks, helicopters cannot provide enough support to the infantry, Lmean, they con't offer ‘enough support to the soldiers on the _ground, So tanks oer greater protection and make forces more effective LLtCol: Yes, forees are mare effective with tanks, but, ofcourse sve buy more modern tanks, the new tanks are likely to have higher fuel consumption and that makes them more ‘expensive, to. ‘Maj: Yes, you're right there. And [suppose parts for the new tanks wil also be more expensive, as well tok: Another thing to remembers that none of the transport aircraft not one of the cargo planes we have in the Australian Airforce at the moment is big enough to lift a Leopard ASI - the MBT weare using now, 0 can you imagine what they wil do with a Jneavier tank with thicker armour? F mean, -how will our planes be abe to Lift them if the tanks we have now ar too big for them? Maj: Yes, that’s right! So if our current planes can lift the Leopard, i will be impossible for them to transport a newer heavier tank ‘with al theTatest equipment and shooting, systems, Col Uhh, And I don’t think we have ‘enough amphibious ships to move them, ithe So that makes going overseas with all that heavy’ equipment a Dit ofa problem. [ suppose heavy armour and big guns were perhaps the most important things when we ‘were thinking more about defending our ‘own country on our own teritory - because they give greater protection and firepower and s0.0n, but I think our enemies are “unlikely to land MBTS in Australia, and most ‘of our operations will probably be conducted overseas anyway, so maybe a more modem tank isnt the bes salution, Mai: Yeah, you're right. Nowadays the Australian Army’s more likely to deploy ‘overseas ~ with the UN on peace-keeping, isso, for example and in xegions with difficult terrain, I mean, terrain that snot ‘acy for an MBT, lke step hills or deep, narzow valleys, you know, .. forests, oF even urban areas, LAGol: Exactly. A country that had a similar problem to us is Canada, They deelded to buy the Stryker you know, the Maj. the US armored vehicle with the wheels? Lt Co: Yo, that’s the one."The Stryker. The Stryker moves on wheels and it’s much lightee than a tank. Ttonly weighs 18 tonnes 0s easier to move than an MB. In fact, it lool wery similar tothe Australian Light Armoured Vehicle you Know, ou famous ASLAV. But une the ASLAY, the Steyker is armed with 105 mm guns. ‘Maj: S0 the Canadians bought a lighter vehicle with bigger guns? LtCol: Exactly, They’ te not a well protected a5 an MBT, but they'efastor and’ much lighter, to, which i probably better for most of our operations, Maj: Yeah, where speed is important, Yes.
