Actually there is a relation between power output, torque, rotations per minute and accleration. This is for example given in Kampfpanzer Entwicklungen der Nachkriegszeit by Rolf Hilmes (who has a diploma in engineering, worked for the German defence procurment agency and lectures at the German...

Your posts are often contradicting with reality, just like the one where you identified the holding mechanism for the ERA tiles as NERA, despite this not being possible because of the actual working mechanism of NERA. It is possible to increase the torque of an engine, but not without...

I don't know how you came to this conclusion, but the MB 838 engine used in the Arjun doesn't have more torque than the 1,500 hp engines from MTU and competitors.

That's not technical possible. NERA needs slope in order to work. It is just the end of the holding bracket for the ERA tiles...

If you had any idea about the Leopard 2 development, it would be clear to you why your claims are far from reality. Modern tanks like the Leopard 2 are not designed like cars from one company. Krauss-Maffei and Maschienenbau Kiel did produce the Leopard 2 MBTs. However neither of them designed...

Yes KMW helped developing the Arjun at a time where KMW didn't even exist...

We can clearly see on images from the inside of the tank that this is not the case for the Arjun tank.

The red marked area seems to be a detachable container for some sort of liquid. Do they store additional fuel or oil there?

In other words you are the one making the random assumptions, while my views are not pre-decidd. Let me tell you why: Form follows function! Take a look at modern types of ERA which provide protection against kinetic energy like Relikt, Kaktus, CLARA (with Ultrax layer), ERAWA-2, DYNA, NOZH or...

And who told you that they didn't simply reverse-engineer Kontakt-5? The snipplet about Indian ERA posted on the previous place says that it is "having equivalent performance". So it does not actually matter if it is a Kontakt-5 clone or not (even though the odds of getting the exact same...

Absolutely not. Just look at the ERA array at the right side of the the main gun. What you wrongfully identified as a second ERA layer is just a metal bar used for holding the ERA at the turret front. Even if it was ERA (what it is not), it would have essentially no effect against any sort of...

It can be seen and it was even marked with green colour... If you had read my posts, you would notice that you are having poor memory. You do not know much about tanks in general, else you would have known that no tank has a 10 m long hull and that it is impossible to achieve 1,000 mm RHAe...

:facepalm: He did draw another red vertical line, just in the part of the image right to that, where the turret front face is much better to see. That must be an early case of Alzheimer then. But just to show who clearly doesn't know what he is talking about here is a short summary: - You...

Can't you understand that the armour block in the Arjun is differently shaped? That as dozen of photographs and the whole video from BlueMangoFilms show is not above the head of the gunner as in case of the Leopard 2 and hence the whole comparision you want to enforce know is absolutely stupid...

The Arjun's turret (incl. external storage) is 4.85 m according to the scale drawing from Bharat Rakshak. The Leopard 2's turret already used on the first serial tanks produced in November 1979 is 4.945 m long according to Spielberger. Your behaviour to ask for sources, but not being able to...

The Arjun's turret is not longer than even the first Leopard 2 turrets. You did not repeat his words, you said that this image would show the gunner's sight. It does not.

Maybe you should look at the location of the eye-piece, because that was what you asked for... :facepalm: Says the guy who thought that 10.638 m is the hull length of the not of the total length of the tank - then uses this value to come up with an insanely huge turret, just to (after being...

Just look at the first 5 pictures...

Because, like every time you try to make a point, you simply ignore dozens of things. Saying "i have studied something somewhere but ain't gonna prove it" is all you do for arguing. Mentioning that the sight is not that of the Arjun's is something you don't do (because you did not know that it...

:facepalm: It's the German EMES-15, NOT USED in the Arjun.
