Hyundai Rotem has very recently offered K2 PL to Poland. They may offer similar version to us in response to the FRCV RFI.

The problem with that idea is both Turkey and Poland have not developed their own indegenous tank, which DRDO has done. In the history of armoured vehicles, No country/company has gone for license manufacturing of foreign tanks, after having designed and developed its own tank.

It was during comparitive trials with T-90 in artound 2008. MTU Engine was malfunctioning in desert. Army compalined to DRDO. DRDO subsequently complained to Renk AG, who send German engineers. After initial inspections they suggested that the engine has been tampered with. So DRDO took a...

We have designs for 4 man crew (Arjun mK1A, Mk2), 3 man crew + manned turret (old FMBT), 3 man crew + unmanned turret (new FMBT) and 2 man crew (new design revealed by DRDO scientists) tanks. Problem is Army has not firmed its requirements for the last 10 years. Earlier they wanted 3 man crew +...

No one knows the actual weight of Armata as it is kept confidential by the Russians. Some say (wikipedia) it is close to 48 tons same as T-90. Others say it is about 55 tons or more.

A 50 ton tank cannot match the performance and armour capabilities of Arjun mk2. Now if army goes ahead with this FRCV I perceive the following situations: 1. None of global tank design houses will do any sort of research into the requirement of Indian army when army has even failed to release...

@ kunal biswas everyone knows that the army's preliminary gsqr of fmbt will not be based on doctrine or capabilities of drdo.it would be a direct copy paste of articles on russia's t-95,uk's stealth tank and us's fcs tank from jane defence weekly.the top brass of the army is full of corrupt...

40 ton tank proposed by army with next gen features is next to impossible not only for drdo but even for the americans or germans.50 ton tank (fmbt) proposed by drdo is difficult but acheivable if lightweight hybrid armour ,unmanned remote controlled turret is used.

when the whole hearted effort of the upa is to loot lakhs of crores of public money and to appease the minorities to promote pseudo secularism then the knowledge of ancient granthas is bound to go waste.
