APC version is good

 

[Kunal Biswas]

Polish LT is a updated polish version of CV-90 120T, the big difference is the unmanned turret which reduce the weight further..

 

[Agantrope]

If main gun is 120mm then why not Arjun's gun in Indian version? Is there an technical mismatch?

It is a heavy gun for light tank also there are many technical difficulties when assembled on a lighter turret

Prototype Light tank is ready for field trials.. :emot112:

 

[anoop_mig25]

one question one of indian psu is partner in it . so would india gets right to develop it or we have to buy form the original polish firm?

 

[Tshering22]

First of all, great news that we are considering other east European nations in our list alongside our main partner Russia. Involving more countries into the fray would mean that we have better relations with all the former Warsaw Pact countries as well as former Soviet Republics. This in turn would benefit not only our defence industry which is slow and inefficient but also their computer industry courtesy our IT capabilities.

Very nice. We'll especially need two things out of this apart from its 100 mm (?) main-gun turret. The AAA variant and the APC/MR-APC variant.

These should also be complimented with enough numbers of heavy-lift choppers.

You know, considering that we have infrastructure for the Russian Mis I think we need to consider only Mi-26 straight as heavy lift choppers. Ask the Russians to add digital cockpit that can be handled by 2 pilots rather than a crew of 6. Mi-26 is the ultimate monster that IAF needs for heavy lift operations.

We will be developing this inside our own country..

For more info's we should wait for official premier at MSPO-2010 exhibition in Kielce.

 

[Kunal Biswas]

At Expo!

 

[Rage]

Wonder what make the turret is?

Looks pretty good to me.

A bit like an upgraded version of the Swedish CV90, if you ask me. But solid and a lot more rugged.

I'm also hearing news that the Indian requirement is that the tanks be active-lift deployable from heavy-lift choppers like the Mil Mi-26 (or the Chinook if we ever buy them).

It'll be deadly if we can count the Trophy among its Active Protection Systems.

 

[shuvo@y2k10]

india & russia jointly building a smart tank is a 3 year old news.do anyone have any new information regarding this joint venture.i heard the russian cancelled the t-95 programme in april 2010 due to obsolete design.

The turret is unmanned, the Gun is 120mm smooth-bore ( Indian Variant will be Capable of firing LAHAT ) ...
The Chassis and turret tech will be passed on to us, India already made progress on production facility..
The tank will be equipped with ERA, Active protection system will be same as T-90S..
This Tanks will be deployed in NE sector where T-72/T-55 failed to give armored protection..

 

[FearlessTiger]

T-72/T-55 failed to give armored protection

These are MAIN battle tank in the Past, How do you say that It failed to give protection, they did their duties long enough, both are very good tanks

 

[Kunal Biswas]

More Pics From Expo..

The Tank can also carry Four armed trooperS at back cabin, Just like MERKAVA 4..

 

[Agantrope]

IMO this tank will take atleast 4-5 years to see a fully functional prototype. I think we are jumping even before the prototype comes out :emot100:

 

[bhramos]

you are correct, T-55/72 were most feared tanks by the West of their time........ And T-72 was made to fight WW-III by USSR.....
to be low and Fast......

India, Poland to boost Defence ties
07 Sep 2010 11:26:00
Font size:


India and Poland will hold discussions to strengthen bilateral ties especially in the fields of defence and will sign an agreement for cultural exchange programme for 2010-2012.


Prime Minister of Republic of Poland Donald Tusk, who arrived in Bangalore on monday on a three-day state visit to India, will hold delegation level talks with his Indian counterpart Manmohan Singh and will call on President Pratibha Patil. Tusk is a first non-communist Polish Prime Minister to visit India on an official trip.

After his meeting with Singh, the two sides are expected to sign some agreements including one in the field of cultural exchanges. "While number of agreements are on table, one which will be signed is on cultural exchanges," Banashri Bose Harrison, Joint Secretary (Central Europe) in Ministry of External Affairs told .



"In the past, Jawaharlal Nehru and Indira Gandhi had visited Poland in 1955 and 1967 respectively, but no Indian prime minister has goneto Poland since 1979. In that year Morarji Desai had come on an official visit at the invitation of the Communist government. It is surprising that no Indian prime minister has come to Poland since the fall of Communism in 1989," said Janusz Krzyzowski, president of the India-Polish Cultural Committee.

Indo-Polish trade zoomed to $800 million in 2008 from a small sum of $200 million in 2003. Many important computer companies such as Tata Consultany Services and Reliance have made Poland their base in Eastern and Central European operations in the last five years. Indian origin steel baron Lakshmi Mittal controls 70 percentage of steel mills in Poland.

On Tuesday morning, Donald Tusk will be given a ceremonial reception at forecourt of the Rashtrapati Bhavan

On his visit he will be meeting External Affairs Minister S. M. Krishna ,United Progressive Alliance Chairperson Sonia Gandhi ,leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha Sushma Swaraj .

Later, he will be attending a Business Luncheon meet by FICCI/CII/ASSOCHAM .


The Indian delegation for the talks will include Defence Minister A K Antony, Commerce and Industry Minister Anand Sharma and the External Affairs Minister.

Poland is India's largest trading partner and export destination in the Central-European region. It has been a member of European Union since 2004 and is one of the important gateways into the European Union and CIS.

Poland will assume the Presidency of EU in 2011
