Is the T-14 Armata Better Than The Panther KF51?

When it comes to comparing the T-14 Armata and the Panther KF51 tanks, there's a lot to consider. Are we talking about which one packs a bigger punch, or which one can hit targets precisely from kilometers away? The answer isn't straightforward, as Russia and Germany have put a ton of effort into making tanks that reflect their unique design philosophies.
The rivalry between the T-14 Armata and the Panther KF51 represents a modern chapter in the longstanding tradition of tank design. They each come from different backgrounds, shaped by the engineering prowess and strategic foresight of their respective nations. While comparisons are inherently complex due to specific ways they're supposed to be used and where they'll operate, looking at the strengths and weaknesses of these tanks can give us some useful insights.
In this exploration, we'll dig into the intricacies of their technology, firepower, mobility, and protection. Stay with us as we break down the world of tank design, revealing what makes the T-14 Armata and the Panther KF51 unique.

2:28 i have 15 $ left where can i buy 3 of them?

KF51 look like Cyber Tank. Both are good looking

[MarkFarrington-hbne]

It's down to the circumstances, the crews, strategic factors, it's pointless looking for an overall supremacy of an individual tank, it doesn't exist and never did

[sonnyjim]

A comparison is premature. The panther is still in development, we don't know what the final version will look like.

[zerobreaker]

I would choose a tank that uses a drone for long range target detection and acquisition with jamming capability.

[southyboy]

I'll give Germany this they do make the best looking tanks

[BHS]

It depend on the buyers...
Russia customer prefer it's tank for being relatively cheaper than western counterparts.
But since T_14 is over budget I don't think it will get many orders.

[berschte]

Panther is much heavier than t 14, might be a disadvantage in difficult terrain.

[glfan]

Panther (what a familiar name) is the highest achievement of current tank architecture. Armata is probably a harbinger of new architecture, and by the existence of a completely isolated weapons module (turret) it seems to offer the possibility of easier modernization. It will be possible to compare them honestly after both of them take part in a real war.

[law-abiding-criminal]

Which is more resiliant to drone and artillery attacks

[robmx]

Both are in the prototype stage. Although there are many Armada tanks, there is only one new Panther tank. We don't know if it is fully functional, or if it is a wooden mockup. Chances are the Panther tanks will go into production maybe in five years. As for the Armata, what was learned in its trials was put into the T90-M. Which is Russia's present production tank.

Specs are specs. The only way to know the capabilities of any equipment is to see them in a large scale industrial conflict where neither side holds back. Based on these requirements not even the Ukraine war offers a sufficient testing ground

[shankewang]

KF51 is the new Rheinmetall gun carrier, so it's probably not much better than the Leopards. But where's the LOG on the T-14? How are they going to maneuver over Siberia?

[dibsmatic]

“Testament to Russia’s tank design” In that case their tank design history is very small is they only have 5-7 T-14s

[rtasvadam]

Well the KF51 has yet to be approved for mass production as far as I know

[burninhellfish]

how can You compare 2 top secret tanks? yo don't even known the thickness of their shielding

[PotatoBoy]

The T14 is so good it won't get damaged it won't get hit won't even get spotted, almost as if it's not an actual tank...

[hybridarmyoffreeworld]

Russia abandons Armata tank.

The head of the Russian defence conglomerate Rostec, Sergey Chemezov:
Attributed this decision to the tank’s exorbitant cost, indicating that the military is opting for the more economical T-90 tanks instead.

[kenneththebruce]

You cant compare these tanks as they have not been into combat. One is fairly new (KF51) and the other hides in hangers far from battle (T14).

[garryaustria]

Ok you said production where are they now
