Well the Tank is one costly peice of equipment.

I thought both underwent the same DARIN upgrades and it was the range that made the jags more effective.

Well P2P dedicated CAS aircrafts under the army would be a far better idea than having it under the air force. The army knows exactly where CAS is required and can deploy aircrafts instead of asking the air force every time. I think the MiG 27 is the CAS aircraft and Jaguar will most probably...

I prefer CAS aircrafts and attack helicopters to do that job....SU 30 MKI can carry the CBU 105 for anti armour role and bhramos with a warhead containing anti armour warheads and anti armour mines.

Prolonging the War is sheer stupidity. And here India will not be the aggressor in the start and even if aggression takes place it will be a Blitzkreig operation. It will be too difficult for China to know what hit them. First the airbases, and tank and artillery regiments will be taken out. The...

yeah..alright and where are you planning to fight a Tank battle? In the Russian front? Then all the best. If you are going to fight a tank battle of WW II scale in the offensive or defensive it is only the Sikkim Sector. The other terrains dosent permit large scale tank movements. And I am...

So where are you planning to get the steel from? Where will you get the alloys from? Where are you planning to get the fuel from? There are lots of factors. Yes China has a huge industrial base. I am not denying it but the raw materials also matters. And most of China cannot fight a major Tank...

and where was the mailand located and how many bombs fell on their industries and factories? The tanks of those days were easier to build..not today's tank..the simplest and the most advanced tanks wins the battle take for example the T 34.

Well Tanks are used to punch holes in enemy defence. You need to read the Gulf wars about tank battle. Yes all weapons are expendable in the modern battlefield and it depends on the infrstructure of the country. But calling a tank not a hi-tech weapon is sheer misunderstanding in your part badguy.

I would never take a hero honda bike cross country....

People...all the people who have driven the Arjun tell about how easy it is to drive...it has everything except for a sloping armour. lets say Arjun was touted to be a Leopard like tank...which it is.

The Hindu News Update Service New Delhi (PTI) Army chief General Deepak Kapoor on Friday said comparative trials of Arjun tanks with Russian-origin T-90s will be delayed by another four months, despite raising of an armoured regiment with the indigenous tanks recently. The comparative trials...

I was a bit confused as the DRDO site didnt mention the Lahat anywhere... http://www.drdo.org/products/mbt.htm

Inghji I know Arjun carries the Lahat. I wanted to know wether it carries a seperate launcher or it is fired from the Main gun.

Can you tell me from where will the lahat be fired. As far as I know missiles cant be fired from a rifled bore gun.

That is because of some stupid strategies. The tanks main advantage is its mobility and fire power. Tanks are designed to fight in open areas and spaces. If you start moving a tank inside streets then you compromise both its mobility and fire power. Let me say....The tanks most vulnerable places...

Welcome aboard sir. Sir but we will not be facing the M1s or the Leo2s for a very long time sir. I think Arjun might not stand a chance against these two but is a far better tank in this region. I too would like to see Arjun serve in the IA. But weren't the T series tanks of Georgia brought...

It is not easy to change your doctrine of warfare because you have a home grown product. The IA and IAF are two organisations which redefine everything. The IA wanted a Lepoard II in the size of T 72 and the IAF wanted a Mirage 2000 in a Gnat. These are really hard things to achieve and the DGMF...

Arjun brings more firepower, crew comfort and protection. These are tanks built for different doctrines and different types of battles. The T 90 and the T 72M1 specializes in shoot and scoot and Arjun is designed to take punishment and still operate. The Arjun is based on western doctrine and T...
