the sweetest thing about this tank is that it has a laser defense system, i think the only in the world for a tank?

That's because Al Khalid is also based on an earlier chinese prototype, from the same line of prototype that the Type 98 developed from: common ancestry.

the first pic doesnt' work, third pic is only one of the test platforms for Type 99G, fourth pic is PS.

this improve version of Type 99 is even lighter than the original. the original Type 99 was 52 tons, while this one is little more than 49. and also i don't believe the active laser defence system is very effective, because you'll have to aim it at enemy gunner's sight over a long distance, not to mention tanks are always moving.
