These were the primary weapons with which people used to fight before the introduction of rifles, and they are not less than Gods for any warrior(including your future soldiers). Ask a Gorkha what his Kukhri means to him. Those were the real soldiers who used to fight with these weapons. Daad...
Mate even the fully operational Mk-2 will look like the same Mk-1 except the new mine plough added in its front and anti-aircraft gun. And maybe you can notice the new sights and AWS thats it. No alternation it its design.
I dont think so. This model doesnt displays the digital camouflage, mine- protecting boots, knee-elbow protection, no combat glasses, a mapping device tied on the wrist, etc etc. Ya if you talking in terms of BJ and HMS then maybe.
If you have paid attention on earlier articles over Arjun Mk-2 then it was clearly told that the design of Arjun will remain unaltered. And currently, IA doesnt have the design issues with Mk-1. That were some performance issues and night operating capability lacking in Mk-1 with more features...
This thread is very precious. I suggest mods to please mark it as a copyright or make some security efforts since anyone can have access to these pics and most of them are unmarked so can be claimed by anyone else or something like that. Hope you understand.
