i don't think they will spend any more money on the tank any time soon. they wanna feel what the tank needs.

SG purchases military hardwares based on doctrines, not like 'countering wad others bought'. For example, when Malaysia bought MLRS, SG did not follow the suit and purchase MLRS. Bcos having one in SG is not veri wise.
not exactly true, SG actually consider this: "don't buy something that will cause them to buy something else!". SG actually look as MLRS far early but skip it so as not to encourage an arm race. also, it has already place orders for MLRS. ;)

It is a direct counter to Denel G5 howitzer Mk 3 155mm Howitzers that malaysian army have..
isn't the SSPH Primus more suited for that role?
