cool
of course I gave just an imaginary example (in a second I swapped T-80 for Leopard), and I want to believe you don't post in the way "so that West always wins" if you know what I'm saying

LOL now I read two years old post Feb 22, 2015
the plan to launch the Gremyashchiy in May of this year (which is 2017 and specifying the year is a very important info when describing Russian naval projects)
by the way the wiki page linked above contains gibberish: the Gremyashchiy Commissioned in 2015
because Russians announcedI wondered about the current status of "improved Steregushchy-class" partly described (and more correctly called) in
and (less correctly called) in
so I searched Russian Internet, went through lengthy discussions under
and it seems more powerful engines were needed (more than 10 m longer hull), ordered from Germany (the doesn't show the particular 5900 kW model I found at the Russian website though, which of course doesn't mean anything), and ... fell under 2014 sanctions ... the building of (numbers at the shipbuilder) 1005 and 1006 has been suspended and it was most recently announced they would get the same (weaker) Russian engines 16Д49 as their Project 20380/1 predecessors (4400 kW which is the power of more than 5898 horsesI also found out the fuel consumption would correspond to about 21 tons per 24 hours
P.S. The propulsion is CODAD with four of these engines.

Russia Has Found A Partner To Build A New Lightweight Fifth-Generation Fighter
February 21, 2017
Russia will partner with the United Arab Emirates to jointly develop a new lightweight fifth-generation fighter in roughly the same class as the Mikoyan MiG-29 Fulcrum.
"We’ve signed an agreement on industrial cooperation in the field of military engineering,” Denis Manturov, Russia’s Minister of Industry and Trade, told the. “This will enable us to push ahead with the fifth-generation-jet project, in which the UAE will participate.”
The joint development plan with the UAE is in its infancy, but it is clear that the Russian side will carry out most of the substantive development work. Indeed, foreign professionals perform overwhelming per.
"Joint work on a light fifth-generation jet with the UAE is in the initial phase,” Yuri Slyusar, head of the United Aircraft Corporation told TASS. “We are working on proposals addressed to the UAE. We believe it will be a good plane. We are prepared to present the results of our R&D efforts to our counterparts.”
It’s not clear what the final configuration of the new fifth-generation aircraft will look like. Indeed, Russian sources offered conflicting information about the project. While Rostec chief Sergei Chemezov told TASS’ Russian-language service that the new fighter would be developed from the Soviet-era MiG-29 Fulcrum, Slyusar said that no decisions had been made on the configuration of the new jet.
"The more modern fifth generation aircraft will be created on the basis of the MiG-29". “Work on this aircraft, I think, will begin next year. It will take about seven or eight years.”
Slyusar, however, said that the while both Sukhoi and Mikoyan will contribute to the project, no decision has been made on the final configuration. "We have not formulated the concept of a fifth-generation jet so far,” Slyusar said. “We are still undecided if it is going to be a single-engine or twin-engine plane. The agreement signed enables us to start that work."
It’s likely that Chemezov meant that the new aircraft would be a replacement for the Fulcrum series rather than a derivative. The RSK-MiG—which along with Sukhoi is part of the United Aircraft Corporation—is venture to develop a fifth-generation MiG-29 replacement. It is likely this Russian joint venture with the UAE is part of the same project.
Well here is the wrapper, now we need the bun, cheese and the beef.
Of course "developed from the Soviet-era MiG-29 Fulcrum, Slyusar said that no decisions had been made on the configuration of the new jet." This bit has me worried that the Russians are just going to repackage the Mig 35 and try and pass it off as a new plane.
