From what I've read, High Nitrogen Steels are very corrosion and erosion resistant, but can they really replace regular armour? http://www.drdo.gov.in/drdo/English/IITM/Write-up_High_Nitrogen_Steel.pdf DRDO claims yes.

Are these sufficient protection values?

Which question? Protection of the hull? Is placing armour after the fuel tanks possible? The schematic image above shows little space after the fuel tank.

What is the angle and how much will the protection actually be on the hull? You could use those Leo 2 armour composition values you used back then.

Pretty-much self explanatory. Worrying that there are large weakspots, especially the gun mantlet. Lower front hull hull shouldn't be a weakspot, but it is possible if we tried old Soviet protection philosophy.

The earlier article claims 62 tonne weight for Arjun when the actual weight is 58.5 tonnes. :O Seriously, wait for a DRDO press release or a TechFocus or Newsletter article. Once MK-2 testing is done, they will run something.

Okay :okay: Do you have an update on Polish APFSDS rather than the ones I have posted.

But I took your word as on one of these threads where you said penetration of 125 mm Polish is 610 mm. Do you mean that the round is not yet in service?

@militarysta, aren't the latest Polish 125 mm capable of penetrating 610 mm? @Kunal Biswas, according to official sources, such as this, this, and this, Certified penetration of indigenous 120 mm round: 500 mm at 2 Km, bound to be 30-40 mm more at point-blank range Of course, Poland uses...

@Kunal Biswas, if their measurements are wrong, why aren't ersakthivel's? Seems to me that you are lobbying unfairly for someone. :hmm: And do you think they would allow a teen with a measuring tape to climb onto state secrets and measure values, just because I want to? :rofl: And did...

Damn it, @ersakthivel, Their work is a class apart from yours, simply because you refuse to take time with your images. Show us on the image how you came to conclusions about your measurements, rather than repeating the same thing several times. Show us how exactly you estimated above-stated...

Would you mind explaining, how? Your posts have become near-incomprehensible and you keep ridiculing his posts without evidence. Make a perspective pixel-based measurement using proven values like he does, and edit the image and post said image here.

What do you mean by this image sir?

Do you mean T-72 and T-90 by medium weight tanks?

Sir, sorry to say this but you have underrated thermobaric explosives by a long, long way. High temperature, so what? - That's what you would say. Again, you would say, "What is this significance?" Got that? The fuel mixes with the atmosphere and spreads, and whether or not you inhale, the...

Insanely scary. It is sad that we humans, the smartest race, have found such methods to kill our own :why:

I would think Thermobaric ammunition would be more deadly to the occupants than the targets, especially since blast would ignite the oxygen inside the vehicle and blow off panels would probably be unable to hold their own against such a blast. Thermobaric blasts use little explosive, but...

Sayare sir, you have placed the gunner a bit far back. He should be a little closer to the aiming devices.

I did understand he has placed gunner's seat in front, but I didn't think it was such a large value like 30 cm :wtf: :okay:

@ersakthivel, first you said LOS behind main sight is 630 mm, then 800 mm now 900 mm :hmm: :wat: I finally see your argument properly now, but the yellow line should not be that behind the main sight, you are cutting some poor guy's head into two pieces.
