Something tells me this thing can whip Abrams A**.
hmm, it got speed but the armor is lacking compared to the abrams, could not find any info about the range of the gun except the soviet one its based on, its effective range with ap rounds were around 2000m while the rheinmetall 120 mm gun effective range is 4000m.
Max speed is about the same as Abrams...
max speed for Abrams off-road is 40 kmh while the t-84 can manage up to 65 off-road.

"rheinmetall 120 mm gun effective range is 4000m. "
The marvel of German engineering. The abrams shares the rhein with the leopard 2.
It shares the L/44 version on Leopards 2A5 and under. Later Leopards use the L/55; it's longer length giving it a higher muzzle velocity which equals greater effective range and penetration.
The Abrams can still penetrate better, though, due to more advanced shells used by the US, specifically the DU kind.
Goes to show barrel size and length comes second to advances in penetrators.
Sorry for the frequent use of the word penetrate and it's variants, penetration and penetrator.
Looks like someone built it in some garrage from spare parts lol.
