Aero India 2023: VEM Technologies showcases AsiBal ATGM
VEM Technologies has displayed its AsiBal anti-tank guided missile (ATGM) at the Aero India 2023 show in Bangalore, which runs from 13 to 17 February.

The AsiBal is a third-generation manportable fire-and-forget ATGM. It is integrated with a tandem high-explosive anti-tank (HEAT) warhead with a penetration of 750–850 mm. The system weighs a total of 18.5 kg – the launch unit 6 kg, and the missile 12.5 kg.

The ATGM has a thermographic camera and a dual-mode infrared seeker, making it effective against explosive reactive armour (ERA)-protected vehicles at a maximum effective range of 2,500 m.

The average velocity of the AsiBal missile is 0.6 Mach, and it can be employed in a default top-attack mode as well as a direct-attack mode. The AsiBal has a dual-mode day and night imaging infrared seeker and it is equipped with a compact fire-control unit for surveillance and target acquisition. It is suitable for use against stationary and moving targets.

VEM Technologies told Janes that ballistic trials of the AsiBal have been successful and that the company expects to win a production contract soon.

Another's screwdrivergiri coming soon
And people make fun of chinkus carbon copying every second product from the west. At least they are able to design and manufacture all the components on their own. 99% of bumfuck indian companies instead are content to screwdriver imported components and kits and call it "make in india". The joke never seems to end

Look I may support ak 203 , but for everything sacred do not bring in sprut , it's a death trap .
Although it has a 125mm gun instead of 105 mm gun, so there's that .
The ammunition can be sourced easily and will be common with bhsimas and ajeyas.
