Sir, means even T-55s lacked L7? So we got L7 in T-55s after 1971 war?

T-55 during the wars had Russian 100mm gun not 105mm L7 ..

The upgrade was done long after the war ..

In 1971, to prevent confusion with Pak T-59s, tin cans and metal cylinders were used on Indian T-54/-55s to mimic the L7/20pdr fume extractor. The upgrade took place in the 1980s I think.

Pantsir was on the cards. MOD issued the tender in 2013. Don't know whatever the hell happened to that.

It looks very dystopian and jihadi monsters deserve nothing less than dystopian.

Sorry guys, this has exactly 0 chance of coming to Kashmir.

Who will use it? JKP (can't afford it)? CRPF (aren't even deploying their specialist anti-riot unit, RAF, to the valley)?

Mahindra can offer it to the forces but they are unlikely to buy it. Ideally this should be ordered by CRPF's RAF and they should crush the Jihadi stone pelters once anytime they dare to take to the streets but it is clear by how pathetically the security forces handle these crowd control issues that there is little interest in tackling this problem once and for all.
