They really could have done a better job masking the road wheels. All that overspray... yuck! :-X
AIUI, they also intend to offer this turret for a T-72 hull.

The overspray is expected as no one is that motivated to actually place masks over the wheels :)
I got the impression from the several overhead shots of the vehicle that it had a strong resemblence to the Russian T-90 turret. A drop-in replacement would definitely do much for the flying turret issues with the ammunition explosions.

Ukrainian M-60 anyone: https://www.armyrecognition.com/defense_news_april_2024_global_security_army_industry/could_spain_provide_its_old_us_m60_tanks_to_ukraine_.html
Jeffry Fontaine:
All depends on how they will be employed. "Move out and draw fire" might have worked thirty years ago but that practice might not go as well today. That said, "Reconnaissance by fire" should still be on the menu. There is also the larger ammunition selection to consider such as actual HE rounds in addition to HEAT, WP, APDS, APFSDS. The ammunition stocks are also plentiful and that could make a real difference.
