Exactly that's what concerns me. If these two generals despite having acknowledged Arjun's might and even praising it can rise issue of specification of border roads and bridges with regard to Arjun's mobility then what is the possibility that section of Army filled with officers like ex. DGMO...

@ Kunal Sir. Actually this very talk show prompted me to say that Army has rejected Arjun on the basis of mobility. Officer on our left Maj Gen BS Grewal says between 9:05 - 9:25 "We must look at tank as not just an isolated piece of equipment in the battlefield, we have to it as in overall...

Saya, DRDO can also accomplish similar development over Arjun but it will require time and even more Army's commitment. From available information, Army has made its mind to reject Arjun on the basis of logistic/mobility issue and there is nothing what DRDO can do in this regard. Only...

How wrong i would be if i say FMBT will be scaled-down Arjun (i am talking about hull)?

That's a compromise as it looks but it may not be final configuration. I expect part of the area around main sight to be protected by ERA in final configured vehicle.

Oh it starts all over again. You don't trust these reports but we do. And i don't know how many times it has been said that latest competitive tests were carried out in presence of neutral MBT experts ; the Israelis. While there can be numerous parameters on which two different designs can be...

Why this fuss, what is left of Arjun to prove against T-90? T-90 is what it was against Mk-1 and we all know the results. After that Arjun has been further improved but what has been in T-90S? Media; both Indian and Russian, is making useless fuss calling it competitive trial which in reality...

Exhaust is modified. Wonder why put 'L' shaped tube?

Saya last i heard DRDO is setting up its own chip/processor production facility for ruling out any possibility of bugs. So might be they are in process of producing equivalents of Intel chip.

Where and what Isreali is he claimed as own? Sayareaked is very respected member and when he talks he talks sense. What mobility you are talking about? Where do you see Arjun less mobile than T-90? But then Mobility is not all it is the Survivability that counts above all and Arjun is...

I getting what you are saying. For past few years DGMF was something like Gaali. BTW, SAYA do you prefer entirely new design for FMBT or a derivative of Arjun?

SAYA: Do you see truth in that FORCE article regarding FMBT? Is it green signal for Arjun MK-X or T-95?

I was reading this old FORCE article on Prasun Sen Gupta's blog and very 3rd sentence (It is reliably learnt that FMBT project with notional in service date of 2025 had since been shelved...............) surprised me. I wonder what author means? And on larger side how it connects with Arjun MK-2...

What? I am into belief that both are same. It will be a typical shame. They will rather choose western design, probably Leopard-2, their Generals seems in love with it.

I guess, they will stretch front portion of the turret by bolting specially designed armour blocks in such a manner that top aft portion of hull (area above diver compartment) will get covered. This is the area which is exposed and venerable to all kinds of Top-Attack projectiles and a serious...

Saya, did you checked that Mission Army video on armour ? The Arjun gliding through desert between 6:04 - 6:10...............simply exhilarating!

HEMRL's Explosive Reactive Armour (ERA) ERA disrupts and defeats the shaped charge jet of anti-tank missile warheads effectively thus reducing its penetrating capability. HEMRL developed an ERA capable of defeating latest anti tank missile warheads . The ERA developed is light weight, cost...

It doesn't end with it. Army is also raising specialized infantry regiments for mountain warfare. Earlier there were no specialized infantry regiments for mountain warfare in Army. All in all with ALHs, air mobile artillery, light MBTs and specialized infantry army is constructing a wall of...

Ajai Shukla also claims hearing from horse mouth and people find reasons to believe him because his an ex tanker. BTW if he is lobbying for PSU then your source can also be lying for import lobby. Anyway i have reasons to believe Ajai Shukla because one source close to my uncle(Lt Co) has...
