Indian Army T- 90 (Bhishma) and T- 72 (M-1) Tanks

[Aniruddha Mulay]

In an active war between us and chicoms. One thing is sure
Our tanks will be roasted quite easily. That's a given.
Russian and Ukrainians both use better tanks than us
One can see how well it went.
Only thing is Indian army is improvising, like mounting atgms on polaris vehicles .

Much of China's current tank fleet has its origin from the T-72 platform.
What makes you think that they wouldn't be blowing up while only Indian ones will?

We will be blowing them up ofcourse, what hit they would not know.
They shall not pass !!!!

Chinese tanks As well as their crew will be cooked even better when they come across our latest HPD anti tank mines . These mines are magnetic so they stick to the belly of the tank and burst it open , then it sends a jet of shrapnels which kills the crew inside and damages the ammunition

, that's true.
These mines will Crack open the them , rudy crack open them.

But the chances of abrams or arjun mk1a catastrophically blowing up is very less

Nope Even the most heavily armored tank in the World blew up its turrent if it got hit in a right place
UKR military trained for months by SAS And NATO instructors on how to target Russian tanks

were are the vulnerable Spots

An instance of a Leopard 2 tank destroyed in a battle in Syria.

The irony is its Destroyed by Kurdish T-55s

The thing most people dont know is that many of the tanks were subsequently targetted by turkish airforce so that they dont get captured

Regular vs thermal sight

there is no reliable counter to atgms of top attack variety that can be easily developed and deployed by the main weapons manufacturing armies today.

only possible counter is active protection systems if I am to speculate,

the thing is abrams and most western tanks have not come in contact with a lot of top attack munitions except in brief conflicts.

 

[Bhartiya Sainik]

When successful, our old Russian T-series can also get upgraded with APS.

 

[Hari Sud]

Tank warfare is going to loose its much sheen in next 5 years as top attacking missiles both hand held and UAV fired missiles become greater lethal. Already in Ukraine the Russians are learning the hard way. The Turkish UAV as well as Chinese anti tank missiles are in Pakistani hands or will soon be hence it is only matter of time that these pose great danger.

This is a great video on people who think the age of tank is over

That's why APS is so important for every type of ground vehicle. And top-attack munitions just require a hemispherical sensor coverage & efficient algorithms.
It is a mystery why Russians have suffered such heavy losses. They have manpads & Pantsir AAA+SAM which can easily shoot down even RC drones, then medium sized Bayraktar UAVs shouldn't have been a problem at all.

what the heck?
The best in India is 3BM42, at most 460-500RHA
Only T90 can be used,
As for T72, only 3BM32 can be used
,Because only the 2A46M5 artillery uses the chamber pressure self-tightening technology, can this high chamber pressure armor-piercing projectile be used
China can use 125-3 regardless of 96A, 99A, 99 tanks, and can reach 680RHA
Because from 85-2AP, China can use the bore chrome plating and bore pressure self-tightening technology
Moreover, the development of China's material technology has enabled China to achieve an RHA of 680 without changing the loader.
Even if it is a Type 15 tank, the 105 shells (export BAT2) used have 550RHA
There is no pressure to break down T72

New APFDS rounds are coming for t90s and t72s buddy .and t72s themselves are gonna get replaced FRCV or FMBT

 

[Marliii]

If you're talking about 3BM59/60, they're only available on T90MS bought in India, because the T90S's loader can't hold them at all

If we are talking about weakness then what's your opinion on this

3BM42 is getting replaced with DRDO developed APFSDS Mk2 which has 15% higher DoP compared to the Mango round.

_>500-540mm RHA if I’m not mistaken.

 

[Marliii]

Do you know what the so-called Indian-made 125mm shells are?
It's actually an Israeli CL3254M made in India.
CL 3254M urgently imported from Israel IMI during the Kargil conflict
India is produced in the form of assembly, but the quality has not met the standard for a long time. The first batch of more than 15,000 rounds failed the quality inspection. By 2010, the Indian media said that more than 45,000 domestically produced rounds had been idle, and the imported originals did not appear in the spot check. Quality issues
Therefore, the Indian army has always only used more than 46,000 rounds imported from the original factory. , Indians claim around 500mm

Where did you get that info ? We are talking about the new APFDS ammo here
