Who has better performance, China 99 main battle tank or Arjun main battle tank?

The Indian army has a low opinion of Arjun tank. It is pointed out in the prototype appraisal report: "The test results show that Arjun tank can not meet the user's acceptance conditions in terms of design and performance." "The worst thing is to find that the design of Arjun tank did not consider safety, reliability and maintainability." The main specific issues raised in the report are:

(1) The design of turret and car body is not suitable for smooth and safe operation. For example, if the driver drives with the window open, the turret will rotate and hit his head. When the gun is straight ahead, the driver can't get in and out of the cockpit.

(2) The components of the fire fighting system are not integrated and lack of mutual cooperation.

(3) The loading speed of shells is unacceptably slow. For example, it takes 15s to load a shell to be fired, and it takes longer to load a shell not to be fired.

(4) When loading shells, the artillery must be adjusted to a certain elevation angle, otherwise it cannot be loaded.

(5) The anti-aircraft machine gun is operated by the loader outside the vehicle, so it is impossible to operate the anti-aircraft machine gun and load the shells at the same time.

(6) The turret has only three rounds, and the Army requires at least 12 rounds.

(7) The turret structure of the prototype car is unreasonable and easy to get stuck.

(8) The weight of the prototype car is 52 ~ 60t, which is much higher than the original planned 45t, which seriously affects the mobility of tanks and makes railway transportation difficult, exceeding the safety passing standard of bridges.

(9) The working environment of the unit is not conducive to the best performance of the unit, such as small seat adjustment, uncomfortable sitting posture, and the unit is not easy to get close to the control equipment.
