See here for details.

Ok, because the Leopard 2 and Abrams tied I have decided that they will have to run together. So.

If the Leo 2/Abrams win.
1.Abrams (tie)
1.Leopard 2 (tie)
3. Challenger 2
4. Merkava

If the Challenger 2 wins.
1. Challenger 2
2. Leopard 2 (tie)
2. Abrams (tie)
4. Merkava

So, you decide, which tank(s) do you believe to be the best in the world? The fate of the world is in your hands. You have the power!

Istrongly believe that the Leo 2 will win ! German TAnks are great! Gut Panzer!

wait, why not make it a 3-way vote?

Yes, what WD said.

I voted Leo2/Abrams for teh win!

I'm surprised I haven't seen a poll including the Type-90 MBT yet.
Some American think-tank declared it to be the third-best tank in the world after the Leo2A6 and the M1A2.

T-90? I thought it was a failure next to its western counterparts? The only Russian tanks I'd consider for the top slot are the T-80UM2 Black Eagle and T-95, but there's not enough data available on either to issue a proper judgement.

Oh well. If it's going to be a tie, why not include the Challenger 2? Most advanced armor ever.

My sense for British hardware is low but the Brits knows how to make a few things between tea time, and so is the Challenger.

Until a tank has battlefield action in harsh conditions then you just don't know how it will perform and what is spoken about some of these tanks is just sales talk. Now both the Abraham tank and the Challenger have seen a fair amount of combat. Now as there are three times the number of Abraham tanks than there are Challenger tanks then results can be different. Also the Americans use there tanks in a different manner than the British so it is hard to draw a correct comparison

True. Tactic's, Training, and use of the tank are different. Thats why the Brits still use the HESH round, while we prefer the HEAT round.

I know that the M1 and Chally share alot. Chally use the same FCS as the M1A1.

An improved one, anyway.
