The advantage of Arjun's 120mm rifled gun is that it provides greater accuracy at longer ranges.
This is at the cost of the Arjun being unable to fire guided missiles like the 9M119 Invar anti-tank missile from its main gun like how the T-90 can.
I got my info on the deployment of Invar from these sources.It use CLGM or LAHAT ..
==========================
Trials of CLGM recently has been concluded and it is successful... Destroyed target, a decommissioned tank at a range of 5 km.I got my info on the deployment of Invar from these sources.

Can you please validate these because a lot of sources are reporting orders of the Invar missile alongside the CLGM and LAHAT to fill up depleted tank ammunition reserves.
Also, have the the trials of CLGM been concluded and if they have what has been the result?
Sir what info please? Or link please
There's really not much any of us can add. Only ones who can give you details are the ones in CVRDE.
Trishul was the one who exposed this image, there was a small thumbnail of it in DRDO's site for a long time, but it was so small, people like me ignored it. Until Trishul got the bigger, better quality image.
That prototype is lost in time.
Sir link isn't opening ,please look into

This was designed to serve a specific purpose i.e. defending UAE beaches from an Iranian invasion. Not needed in India.
There should be a PINAKA trailer version.

How many possible rounds can be fitted?
Its quite feasible to add this upgrade without any modification from outside, Ukrainian offered similar design in past ..
How many possible rounds can be fitted?
And how many at present it can carry?
We can start a new 50-55 ton tank from scratch with this auto loader....even 125mm also possible...So **** T-14 armata
Few of Launchers can be added to launcher for Pakistan border areas. it will reduce the cost per vehicle but it can be used for first wave only because of lower mobilityPost: 1286728 said:This was designed to serve a specific purpose i.e. defending UAE beaches from an Iranian invasion.

UAE needs this because they have manpower constraints and a very good road network to use these in defensive purposes.Few of Launchers can be added to launcher for Pakistan border areas. it will reduce the cost per vehicle but it can be used for first wave only because of lower mobility
