I don't understand mentality ,missile system are mostly procured , and in terms of capability they are good enough

Yeah. But people here are of the idea that you test fire a missile once and then order it in thousand.

This will get rejected too. This is too heavy for roads and bridges along the Pakistan border, and too wide to be transported by train. Of course, its rounds can't orbit around the sun and slingshot to hit a spaceship in the Andromeda galaxy.

Is there look of mpatgm in its entirety ?

Can anyone tell me the status of NGMBT of DRDO,is it in prototype stage or still early?

trishul blogspot says. 7 arjun MK2 are already in testing by 2020. MK2 different from Mk1A.

there is a lot of possibility that MK2 is GNMBT. waiting for def expo in 2 weeks. we might see GNMBT.

3 crew instead of 4
auto loader
120mm smooth bore gun
~ 50 tons
APS
battle field management system
commander control over gun (in case gunner dies)
1500 HP engine
6 road wheels instead of 7 as of Arjun MK1,1A

Would turret be different than arjun mk1a?

 

[Marliii]

According to my knowledge arjun mk2 was then converted to mk1a by reducing weight.

3 man crew so only 2 in turret. similar to T-72 style.

 

[airstrike99]

According to my knowledge arjun mk2 was then converted to mk1a by reducing weight.

no arjun MK1A still weighs 68.5 tons
if High nitrogen steel is used, it would weigh 62 tons.

 

[Chinmoy]

According to my knowledge arjun mk2 was then converted to mk1a by reducing weight.

Battle weight of Arjun Mk1= 62 Tons.
Battle weight of Arjun Mk1A= 68 Tons

 

[airstrike99]

Battle weight of Arjun Mk1= 62 Tons.
Battle weight of Arjun Mk1A= 68 Tons

no
unimproved/ original MK1 Battle weight = 57.5 TONS
unimproved/original MK1 with added ERA = 62 tons

completely improved MK1A with all its attachments = 68 - 68.5 tons.

 

[Marliii]

Battle weight of Arjun Mk1= 62 Tons.
Battle weight of Arjun Mk1A= 68 Tons

This is all getting confused the future tank is NGMBT then many says arjun mk2 is also in work.are they the same or are we working on two different tanks and havent heard anything about arjun mk2 program since 2019

 

[airstrike99]

completely improved MK1A with all its attachments & HNS = 62 tons

according to DRDO, MK2 = FMBT = FRCV . GNMBT might be separate from FMBT.
according to army, FRCV = FMBT = GNMBT but want everything in just 10 yrs

Gnmbt might be a leap ahead with dew

Maybe this time a three star general with atleast 4 years of remainder service should be made incharge of NGMBT project, make him record every issue raised by IA and the response given by design & prototype team at DRDO & OFB.

also make him(his team) maintain a record of weight of every nut bolt & subcomponent which goes into the prototype, so that they don’t complain of weight later.

If the NGMBT project fails again, IA would be equally responsible.
