Modern tanks have very complicated engineering as well.

Not to mention that once they do, in fact, have the schematics it really is just how long it takes the factories to produce the parts and assemble the plane.

Did you know the M1 Abrams was being developed since 1971, and the first prototypes weren't delivered until 1976. Full production didn't begin until 1979. 7-8 years.
