Don't know why people say that a 50 - 60 tonnes MBTs are not suitable in tropical soil like in Malaysia because of it's weight. It's not about the weight itself but they should consider the ground pressure of the MBT.

Comparing ground pressure of MBTs:

T-90      : 0.938 kg/ sq.cm
Leo 2    : 11.8 psi (0.83 kg/cm²)
K1A1    : 0.87kg/cm²

Between the 3 the Leo 2 has much less ground pressure.
