Noob but I know about era
Just basics I have read, I mean I don't want to gaslight by my low knowledge regarding tanks but just giving a thought
So when will our army upgrade t-90 protection to this level
I'm a bit confused. Is he saying that Russian ERA is so bad that none of them work?

What he is saying is the evolution of era that took place in Russian tanks during the war
He is basically advocating that baseline t-90 protection is not that enough and IA should think about upgradation
That's what I understood by looking into his previous tweets too

Green berets = military intelligence?
View attachment 190407
Light Green is MI or TA , dark green is Infantry including Mech. IMO can't tell what the shade denotes as color standardization is so shit and material used are so shit as they fade

Lastly - MI wearing their distinguishing berets in an active Op?

Get ready for imports

Seems like a low hanging fruit. Couldn't mahindra or tata or L&T build it if given an year?
Low High middle doesn't matter. It's an "emergency", hence import. Local industry strategic independence be damned. We want the best import from wherever whatever the cost.
