    Indian Army T- 90 (Bhishma) and T- 72 (M-1) Tanks

    In all wars, Russian gather their best officers to make detailed studies. Today's Russian army was a wake up call post 2008 Georgia incursion. Expect them to go big way after this conflict end. It will be the most combat experienced force.

    Indian Army T- 90 (Bhishma) and T- 72 (M-1) Tanks

    Wrong. Pakistan acquired T80UD from Ukraine and was gaining an upper edge in its armoured formations. Bulk of Indian formations had old T-55 with T-72m1 reaching some critical mass. Thus, building on the T-72 experience, in 2001 it was decided to go with T-90. Now, an ok T-90 is better than an...

    Nope. Indian T-90 can still be destroyed by most anti tank weaponry in US inventory. No reason to panic.

    What statement he needs? These buggers sometime behave as if they were riding in M1abrams or leopard it would be invicible.They want zero casualty war. Check Houthis and Northern syria what happened to those uber 'western' tanks.

    Indian Army T- 90 (Bhishma) and T- 72 (M-1) Tanks

    Nope good old T-90S version built by AVADI :) You would not want to fight them on equal terms. India has the resources to focus on a decent modernisation programs for its T-90. Modernise existing nearly 1500+ T-90 with latest equipment. T-72M1 is on its way out. Some being retained following...

    Indian Army T- 90 (Bhishma) and T- 72 (M-1) Tanks

    Ask army why they are still acquiring similar T-90s which we bought in early 2000s. Russian came in with 2 new version the T-90SM and T-90M, funds could have been set aside to modernise the fleet. But nothing doing, we are waiting for Pakistan to gain momentum on tank fleet modernisation. I tell...

    Indian Army T- 90 (Bhishma) and T- 72 (M-1) Tanks

    Let me know how Russians took you for a ride, if we pay and cannot dictate terms then who is the fool. Back in 2001, what choice did we have beside T-90, Pakistani had acquired T-80. We cannot buy western platforms too costly, indigenous model Arjun well let's not talk about it again. Then...

    But Russian have tied up crew in a secured capsule. So the risk of cook off and killing crew is minimised now. Btw western tanks performance in hands of Saudi, Turks have been equally dismissal. Thus confirming it's the man that makes the tool deadly.

    Reliability is dependent on converging interest, if it is not the case the dominant partner just walk away. French ditched Russian on mistral deal US booted Turkey on F 35 and Patriot deal So you can see it goes across all so called partnership. The next big question is do we have time and tech...

    The expectations from Russia is ridiculous 🤣 Btw for all platform purchased from West have we got full ToT. Everybody will withheld critical tech. Does anyone believe if we got challenger produced in India, Brits would have shared chobham armour tech with us😜😜 There is only two way as I see see...

    AFAIK we operate the 'monkey' models, read thinner armour ones. How come ours are superior to the Russian ones? If we added armour to it then it came at the cost of mobility. The so called kanchan armour thing is it real??

    Well Pakis have shitty Chinese tanks, but one thing they approached Ukraine for ERA and APS like Varta. Our procurement process selected LEDS150 but nothing materialised, but who cares. We always play catch up

    One thing you are always playing catch up they introduced sniper rifles wrecked havoc then only high command woke up and got the sniper rifles. Same thing happened with tank their approached Ukraine and China to bolster their tanks. Don't trust what top brass keeps feeding you also.

    India defence planners are complacent, pakis makes the best out of their buck. Wait for some skirmish get our ass kick then only we take decision. Pakistan you have to give them credit they use their scarce resources wisely. They have crafted their strategy based on threat perception and budget...
