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 and assemble the parts.

Did you know the M1 Abrams began development in 1971, and that the first prototypes weren't delivered until 1976? Full production didn't begin until 1979. 7-8 years.
