    Arjun Main Battle Tank (MBT)

    Well, now we have IA getting questioned, I will take your comment as not true, as IA is known for crying hoarse for any issue with Arjun whereas they are very accomodative with imports. Sir I got your point, but I am sorry if I am unable to get my point across, my point is I don't think T 90S...

    What is the point? Russians sold us lemons :D Teething problems? A failing of thermal sights is good for imported stuff, but not for home grown products. The point is plain and simple a home grown product is rejected for the love of imported stuff. So now we have to take your word for that...

    All this talk is good, but telling that DRDO is pulling the rifled gun down to IA throats is laughable to say at least, the Arjun gun is result of IA's GSQR, and at least I haven't seen IA complaining with rifled gun. And regarding your claim for T 90 equipped for HEF rounds, I mentioned that it...

    Arjun Main Battle Tank (MBT)

    So why it was ordered before this issue was fixed? Or it is ok for imported items to have issues. Fact is that T90 is looking for AC, you are lieing as usual from Ajai Shukla: Broadsword: Catchovsky-22: The scandal that is the T-90 T 90 procurement is a farce, And regarding substandard...

    Damian sir,arjun does fire same ammunition, and Arjun has gone through lot of testing so I think the rifled gun can work in our condition Ordnance Factory Board

    Yes import a substandard T 90 en masse, and delay arjun induction on the same issues, the T 90 has been given the status of MBT when it has lots of issues for example a faullty thermal imager, which does not work in deserts, needs an AC whereas arjun does not needs it. Does not work with Indian...

    Arjun Main Battle Tank (MBT)

    Well, I would like not to repeat the debates we have seen before, but for the sake of it :). Arjun is developed on the GSQR of IA, so obviously it is more suited for IA's requirements, not so with T 90. But as you said, let's not start another T 90 vs Arjun thing Saar, the HESH was developed...

    Arjun Main Battle Tank (MBT)

    Well every time any point is made against T 90, the fan boys are out in open peddling imports as the only way out, like bizarre argument of import from Israel as Russians are charging more. But let's run with T 90 only, as T 90 is the savior. How more ridiculous it can get. The point of HESH...

    Arjun Main Battle Tank (MBT)

    pmaitra, I started the argument pointing towards the Israeli ammo, which can be adopted on T 90, which has similar capability to what HESH does, and pointing towards the irony that what Arjun has all the time to offer, we are going to import again for the sake of T 90.

    Arjun Main Battle Tank (MBT)

    And you are the sole reference point to be considered to know which weapon system do what? Good to see self petting Stop BSing, rhetorical statements are not facts. What a classic argument, import a half baked T 90, enmasse, run to DRDo for issues with it, whereas DRDO doesn't cribs for it...

    Arjun Main Battle Tank (MBT)

    I can't find a reference where T 90S is equipped with it, this feature comes in command version of the tanks, and as you previously mentioned the cost will be associated with making others tanks made capable of firing this round, whereas with Arjun no such thing need to be done. I think, you...

    What is use of this new round then?

    Arjun Main Battle Tank (MBT)

    Well, HESH is effective against fortifications, that is a fact, and Arjun uses it. You being an import fan boy does not mean that you will lie through top of your voice. Arjun never uses HESH as it's primary weapon against tanks, so you are as usual getting in to rhetorical arguments, now this...

    Arjun Main Battle Tank (MBT)

    It was used by Royal Engineering L9 "demolition gun" too which was used to demolish the defenses, and on what basis you claim that 120mm HESH round of Arjun as ineffective? So here the point is that till now T90 fleet was without an effective ammo against fortifications, while all the time...

    Arjun Main Battle Tank (MBT)

    please don't put words on my mouth, I never said HESH was not anti tank ammo. I said HESH is very effective against fortifications, and that is a fact. Every fortification can not be made immune to HESH, that is also a fact. Israelis are showing this new ammo, cos they found there existing ammo...

    Arjun Main Battle Tank (MBT)

    Please don't narrow the argument, HESH is effective against fortifications, and fortification does not mean bunker alone. the kind of war IA is going to fight will invovle paki army making a stand in towns, where lot of concrete demolition has to be done, where HESH is effective.

    Arjun Main Battle Tank (MBT)

    Classic twisting of argument, the so called new shell does the same job what HESH does, plain and simple. The T 90 needs it to be effective against it. It is good that this thing can not be imported or else we have another import for the charade in the name of T 90 going on

    Arjun Main Battle Tank (MBT)

    Damian, you are again not getting the point and taking the discussion every where, my point is simple, the so called new shell shown does the same job what HESH round does, although with all sort of bells and whistles, and that too a brochure claim. And please check your facts HESH is effective...

    Arjun Main Battle Tank (MBT)

    Oh please, I guess you are not getting my point, may be I was not clear enough sorry for that. HESH round is the most suited against fortifications, bunkers. Whereas HEAT is primary anti tank round. The smooth bores can fire HESH like the Israelis did after they faced such fortifications where...
