The Type 99A MBT is an advanced version of the Type 99 variant. It was first tested in August 2007 and entering service in 2011. It shares most of its predecessor's features, including a western-style welded turret, longer 125mm autoloaded smoothbore gun and a powerful diesel engine giving it excellent mobility.
This is a hypothetical version of the tank. While the People's Republic of China was considering upgrading the firepower of its Main Battle Tank to face latest western and Russian MBT models, a 140mm gun was never installed on this chassis and was only mentioned in passing by certain Chinese sources.
