Thanks for those pdfs, Abe.
Quite the family of engines.... sort of almost the go-to company for tank diesels.
The TTD's name actually implies quite a bit.....Tank Technology Demonstrator.
One would assume that the operational or service version would show some changes.
One which interests me is the armour package.
I get the impression that the flat turret faces, in particular the front, would have seen additional armour components?
If one looks at certain pictures, particularly of the turret front and the gun mantlet/surround, it looks like space (and attachment points?) was left for these modules.
I wonder whether the thick sloped armour modules, as seen on the Olifant Optimal, would have been the sort of thing envisaged?
Or whether the drivers hatch would have only allowed a flatter array, assuming of course that a production vehicle would have remained unchanged...
