    The level is not tactical but army commanders. At best you can call that "Operational" level. And Rs 500 crores is but peanuts for a force as large as Indian Army. This financial powers has been delegated to meet some urgent operational requirement which OFV / DRDO will not be able to fulfil in...

    One more thing can also happen .. The vehicle is given to the Army to be placed at Mahajan and other ranges for target practice .... booooom.. Or the vehicle is placed at JNU to discourage students to join DRDO / OFB.

    Very good and thoughtful post. IBGs being formed and will require their own integral support systems. Firstly, in my opinion Arjun can not meet requirements of swift and quick action groups.

    Indian Army somehow does not favour wheeled fighting A Vehicles unless it has an independent role. AFV / ICV are companions of Tanks and must have matching mobility, good fire power and adequate protection. They should be compatible in length / width, weight for using common assault equipment...
