The inclusion of the specific tank project in European land forces can be considered as the guiding line of the MGCS as it will be a decisive contribution to the idea of a military team of vehicles that will work together. The contemporary predictions for the EMBT view the attempt as the most powerful tank in the combat tank state of art, having a significant evolving ability since its growth potential is close to 6 tones. The core aim of the practical application of the Main Ground Combat System (MGCS) is the replacement of the Leclerc and Leopard-2 tanks by 2035. The French-German project is called KNDS (Krauss-Maffei Wegmann +Nexter Defense Systems), including both manufacturer`s names, underlying the joint character of the plan.
