Arjun Main Battle Tank (MBT) Mark II

[Kunal Biswas]

It has been shown as its one of the feature MK2 has, Other than that what you mention is rightfully correct ..

@sayareakd and @Kunal Biswas,
Is this mine plough going to be fitted to every Arjun-Mk2?
My limited brains says that 2-3 tanks would be more than sufficient to take up the mine clearance activity while other tanks in the formation can follow with heavier weapons load.

WTF i was watching parade on ABP news and the commentator who was some retired armored core officer was bullshitting about arjun when DRDO weapons came up on parade He was like " i have commanded tank regiment my self and if given a chance to select between Arjun MK2 and T90 for going into war i would always select T90 for sure "

he wont last much in that tank. Gorgian War has shown this. Those new anti tank will just rip the T series tank wide open.

Thanks @Shaitan.

Your first tank pictures after the hull of the aircraft carrier.

I simply love the profile of the Arjun Mark II turret. Very good looking.

the mkII turret ERA looks heavily influenced by T-90.

but loved the new camo- looks sharp.

 

[rvjpheonix]

arjun mk2 looks imposing to say the least!

Zee News should have covered up the entire screen with more graphics.

I am sure @Damian will say the angled ledge is a tool box and still has no protection. Actually the angled side of the turret does still look like a tool box but i am not sure why the Scientists dont want to fill that area.

Some arjun pics from Republic Day

 

[sayareakd]

from the position of RCWS and hatch it appears that RCWS is also made to operate manually, like in this video frame 1.01 onwards

We have to manufacture arjun mk2 in thousands.
