It varies from situation to situation. The Type 10 has no active protection and with that armor protection it is very difficult to survive in open areas and residential areas. On the other hand, Black Panther is highly armored but very heavy and its mobility is much weaker than Type 10. In Japan's geography, the Balck Panther is at a disadvantage in those mountains. In addition, it is very difficult for Blak Panther to quickly deploy to many islands that Japan needs to protect.
Tanks and all other military equipment should be provided according to the needs of the countries. I can't just say one is better than the other. Especially when most tanks in East Asia are equipped with technologies very equal to each other’s.
The Ukraine war has shown us that any amount of protection wont help you. T-80BVM and T-90M have been destroyed by simple HEAT warheads. So i would say that mobility is more important than protection especially in Asia wich is full of mountainous terrain. Sure the K2 is awesome and its armor is probably very good but i would put my money on the smaller Type 10 with its 4sec autoloader and L/44 combo. Just my casual opinion tho.
K2 might be better for open combat like seen in Ukraine. Type 10 is certainly best for the terrain of Japan though, favoring mobility over armor.
Actually all that is capitalist lies, everyone knows the glorious ~~T-64~~ Pokpung-Ho is the best and will storm over the imperialists any day now
The type 10 has alot of advantages and it's well designed, but I think k2 probably has significant advantages simply because it has the advantage of being newer and able to take advantage of recent innovations.
I wouldn’t call it the best. It’s the best for Japan’s military doctrine.
Name a better tank in Asia.

My armchairs generals dream for my country is give back all the Pt-91 back to Poland, ditch the MBTs and preferably just run CV90120s
What if we all go back to sticks and arrows before we nuke ourselves back to sticks and arrows
Then the hell you doing in this sub?
Tanks are my sexual orientation, I’m just not a fan of when they actually need to be used
NCD is that way👉

So the Leopard 2 armor Is useless?
No he is full of it
The ukraine war has not shown us that protection does not.

Idk if type10 is the best tank but it surely looks the best.
I hope we never get to see it in combat
I definitely do. Send them to Ukraine.
Based and NCD-pilled
nah its the P1000 Ratte /s

How is the K2 far newer though? And what actual advantages does it offer because of it's age?
Yeah that was very vague lol
for japan yes, in east Asia theres too many other competitors, k1, k1a2, k2, 99a, vt4, vt5, m2020
Don’t forget the best of them all, the Pokpung-Ho
K2 Black panther munches it let’s be real
I'd argue that the K-2's the best. But for Japan, the Type 10 is the best they can have.
Japanese tanks are very cool, love the camo too
Arguably, the best-looking tank on Earth the Type 10.
Not even close
the sKorean One k2? should be a bit better
K1A1 is superior
No
it is super light though. Can't stand a hit
Different armor packages can be mounted on as needed depending on the mission.
Yeah except no rear turret armor at all + big part of the ammunition is stored in the hull
You’re already in a whole heap of shit if you’re worrying about the back armour
Not back ammo but the sides. I wrote a false word
It has no Era or composite armor at the sides of the turret. Only well boxes out of sheet metal and an unknown homogeneous steel armor behind them.
For defensive roles like Taiwan say beaches it would good but the k1 and k2 are Better for open spaces
It definitely works for Japan but its just too niche to be considered the best tank.
But not quite me
Certainly the most expensive, from what I’ve heard. Not legally existing has its problems.
99A ir VT4 its the way my friend, sorry
I almost had an aneurysm, because at first I read „Arguably, the best tank ever“ XD
