Fallout Re: The FASTBOAT Patch page.

Don this is where I'm at all jet/plane & helo inputs done. The following will be my only MBT submissions to be submitted and what's left for to finish.

1. 1 name w/vision CHANGE

2. 1 vision CHANGE for the same tank as above but for a different country.

3. 1 ADD unless you tell the VT-4 for Thailand has already been entered by you for the next patch.

4. And finally my current "headache" Brazil EE-T1 ORSORIO UNIT 600 I might've been the cause of this as if and others might remember, sometimes I'd post a "what if" tank with other news etc. I believe you'll find I did this for this tank in the MBT Thread.

Here's the issue I've found several refs are saying this tank never got beyond the prototype stage. Army-Guide and maybe a couple of more say they do have. Please if you still have your note on this tank can you tell your source data please.

4A. Brazil EE-T2 ORSORIO UNIT 601 this one the refs seem to agree upon as never getting out of the prototype stage. It's really ashamed though, the Brazilian Army held off on a buy decision unless the tank generated international attention in the form of a buyer. That would eventually became Saudi Arabia that was looking for 300 tanks at the time. If bought the per unit price would've been much less making it an attractive buy for the Brazilian Army. As it turned out, this tank outperformed the ABRAMS (And this is well documented.) very handling in overall performance. In one of the more "shady" defense contract deals made, Saudi Arabia backed out of the intent to buy contract in favor of the ABRAMS this decision was solely based on their long term political interests. In that regard it's obvious it was the right decision.

So this boils down to the same question on how it got in.

I'm thinking 2 DELETES here otherwise.

Got to get ready for work have a late post today. Midnight before I can get home before I can respond to this.

Regards,
Pat
