The Lyrics

Chinese recently unveiled their stealth tank MBT 3000 which capitalizes on their T-99 while adding thermal masking and stealth materials into the mix. Has a nice 125 mm main gun that also fires ATWG missiles through the tube and carries a 7.62mm coaxial as well as turret 12.7mm. Crew of 3 with autoloader. 42 mph, 500 km range. Due for IOC in 2016.
Stealth Tank by Norinco
Two years time

MBT-3000 is new
Thermal hidin'
Pinpoint hit denyin'

125 (mm) on it
IDEs can't shut it down
12.7 (mm) plus coaxial
Twelve launchers for smoke and shrapnel rounds

(60 tons lifted 2 ft off the ground!)

Stealth Tank by Norinco
Takes West by surprise
This time

Speed- 42 (mph)
3man crew
Multi-views
Hard kill active defense
No money spared
For stealth masking
It all makes sense

(For good defense)

New MBT
Stealth Tank by Norinco
Takes West by surprise
(Gone is Red dependency)

If my character weighed as much as the rest of me, I'd be worth a fortune in sterling. Haven't seen Muldoon's name here before. What have you written? If my views are deplored, someone must be reading them. That's why I put them here. I can't understand why anyone would deactivate the comments block. One fellow in particular has blocked me from complimenting some very finely written parodies in the past couple of weeks.

To FXB, I NEVER need to copy anything from any source militarily. I keep up on all the latest and futuristic developments. The MBT-3000 is still no match for a Leo 2A-7 on any battlefield. It isn't even a replacement for their T-99! It is a transitional design lead in to the MBT-4000! A Russian T-99 is another story.

What happened to Muldoon's comment on my "sterling character and deplorable world view"? Did it fall into an Orwellian memory hole?

Probably got deleted along with a bunch of other posts from sock puppet accounts. I'm not going to tolerate people posting under multiple accounts from the same IP for the time being. It seems to create too many problems.

Mr. ChuckyG: Please read and try to resist deleting. I'm confined to a cheap mental institution with only one computer that has to be shared. Many of the inmates, like Loyle Hairston, Francis X. Bushman, and Holy Harry are big fans of AiR (especially of Patrick McWilliams) because the parody writers think a lot like us. So Mr. ChuckyG, please have mercy on those who don't have their individualized -- what do you call it? -- IP. I bet there are some fancy-schmancy people on the outside who have more than one IP and use a different alias with each of them.

You are a pathetic, psychologically unbalanced troll poster and I resent you using my parody thread as a sounding board for appeal. Inmates, one computer, fans of AiR? Lies! Just vicious 1-bombing and verbal abuses. Try to think up something more original and credible

Does this mean we're not going to bund meetings together anymore?
