The Panssarivaunu 99 is a main battle tank developed by the Aitic Federation as an extensive upgrade of the Psrvn 76. It serves as the primary battle tank of the Aitic Federation, alongside the Psrvn 73 and 93. Despite the Psrvn 93 being of similar or superior capabilities, the Psrvn 99 was chosen as the next generation Aitic main battle tank due to a significantly lower cost in manufacturing.

- Psrvn 99M1: The first model of Psrvn 99, essentially a Psrvn 73 with a new diesel engine, turret and new electro-optical active protection systems, as well as improved electronics.
- Psrvn 99TL: The main model in current service, the TL upgrade of 2002 survivability is enhanced with a new laser warning system integrated with a series of smoke grenade dischargers on each side of turret, a new fire suppression system, REDA NBC suite and electromagnetic mine plow. The most important improvement in firepower comes from the use of an upgraded computerized FCS which enables a "hunter-killer" mode of operation; the commander has a panoramic day/night sight with built-in laser rangefinder and thermal camera and can engage targets independently, while the gunner has his own primary sight with thermal channel. The FCS has sensors that correct for thermal distortion of the barrel, the temperature of the ammunition propellant, meteorological conditions, totaling 22 sensor clusters installed at several points on the turret.
- Psrvn 99U: Further development introduced in 2010. Upgrades include improved armor, a new panoramic tank sight. The electro-optical active protection system has been upgraded and some models include a further powered 1500hp engine.
