Lent Post: Weaponry Picks of the Year

Salvete.

Today, I  thought I'd start an annual series on my favorite military weapons coming out this year, based strictly on what http://militaryfactory.com/ tells me about them. As a disclaimer, I know practically nothing about military weapons. The weapons will be judged based on how they look, basic statistics, and general things that I like about them. So, without further ado, let's look into the military weaponry of this year:

The Plaustrum Tank of the Year is, by default, China's Main Battle Tank 3000. What I like about the tank is, well, the retro name, the long history with previous Russian and Chinese tanks, and the large arsenal that accompanies the tank. The website is http://militaryfactory.com/armor/detail.asp?armor_id=624.

The Plaustrum Military Firearm of the Year goes to the Pindad SS4. It's Indonesian but made by a Belgian company. It a standard rifle, but the rifle's rival was the AK-12 (AK-200), the Call of Duty of assault rifles, so it was the best option. The site is http://www.militaryfactory.com/smallarms/detail.asp?smallarms_id=596.

The Plaustrum Military Aircraft of the year was the Italian Alenia Aermacchi M-346 Master. This plane is not necessarily fast or well-equipped, but it is light and powerful. The design is fantastic. Israel, Singapore, and Italy all want this plane. The site is http://militaryfactory.com/aircraft/detail.asp?aircraft_id=967.

Those were the Plaussies. Have a nice night, everyone. Perhaps next year we'll expand to naval warfare and civilian firearms.
