    Indian Army BMP 2 Infantry Fighting Vehicle Sarath

    True but we need the air defense version with integrated MANPADS as well mounted on some LAVs (not necessarily those JLTVs) as well keeping in mind the hundreds of drones in service with the PLA.

    Because both our military leaders and our scientific community lack in vision and sound common sense.

    I believe it's the Marine Air Defense Integrated System (MADIS) Here - https://missiledefenseadvocacy.org/defense-systems/marine-air-defense-integrated-system-madis/

    Indian Army BMP 2 Infantry Fighting Vehicle Sarath

    Well, the T-15 definitely packs much heavier firepower but in terms of actual armor protection, I don't believe it can surpass the Namer in terms of actual armor protection.

    Apparently, these guys do not bother keeping track of what's been going on outside of their air-conditioned offices.

    Indian Army BMP 2 Infantry Fighting Vehicle Sarath

    For the Paras and the amphibious units, yeah but for the regular mech infantry formations, I think something like a Namer type AFV with an unmanned turret, based on Arjun/ T-90 chassis should be considered, in light of the wide-scale use of ATGMs by our adversaries.

    Yeah, I know, that's why I made that comment.

    No wonder they weren't interested. Who in their right mind would be if such is your level of design optimization?? That thing was abysmal. And besides, the IA top brass ain't exactly among the more sensible ones when it comes to ensuring the safety of their personnel.

    I wonder how a heavy APC based on a modified Arjun hull would work. We could add an unmanned turret with a 40mm autocannon, Machne guns, and twin ATGM launchers.

    Indian Army BMP 2 Infantry Fighting Vehicle Sarath

    Of course!! Nobody can deny that. 57mm over the frontal arc, hmmmm. Is there any IFVs presently in service anywhere with that level of protection?? I guess they should build two separate versions. You can either get an amphibious vehicle or a well-protected one, you can't get both at the same...

    Indian Army BMP 2 Infantry Fighting Vehicle Sarath

    Yeah, they better be prepared for a lot of 'beef roast' memes, unfortunately. But in all fairness, I don't believe any other IFVs would have fared any better than those BMP-2s under the given circumstances unless equipped with APS. But then again, one could, in theory, install such systems on a...

    Indian Army BMP 2 Infantry Fighting Vehicle Sarath

    While I fully agree with you that these BMPs were needed to be replaced like 10 years ago, I don't think any other IFV/APC would fare any better if it takes a direct hit from a heavy ATGM or dedicated anti-tank rockets like Panzerfaust 3 or RPG 29 Vampir, etc. Do keep in mind that even...
