The new Chinese mountain-warfare light tank
While pictures of this new Chinese (ZTQ-??) light tank have been appearing in Chinese internet since Dec 2011 but its turret has not been revealed until now. Judging from armor protection offered by those extreme sloped glacis plates, maybe there is a reason to keep its "head" covered all those years.
Not much is known about this new AFV but it has been spotted en route to
the Tibet area on a regular basis. It is also sporting a 105mm tank
gun.
