Iranian Karrar MBT as good as T 90 Bhishma

Probably better even.

Found a nice video on Youtube regarding Hesh rounds:
Basically, the explosion sends shock waves through the armour and the other side of the armour blasts inside. That way, the round doesn't need to penetrate the armour to do damage. Although this is countered easily through multi layered armour. This round is almost phased out everywhere.

Between you are flying J-10/Lavi a Jewish fighter jet design in original .

Probably better even.

While Russia raised objection on a similar project by India and we bent down and bought T-90s.

Not good enough.

Not good enough.

They need to pass Moon and Mars trials too!

Looks sexy. But not necessarily useful.
Let's talk production cost, training cost, maintenance cost and time to have better overview.
At least T-72 can be fielded in huge numbers and take lots of beating taking into consideration tough Indian deployment conditions

Nah, it's got some of the same design flaws as our T series MBTs, but it's got a more poorly designed turret as well
. So, no thanks, K2s are substandard by today's standards.

Welcome to the american version of a infantry support gun platform .. Weighs the same as a t90.
Go figure.

That's only for made-in-India products.

Why do all modern tanks have smoothbore main guns?

Does any of you know which of the currently used tank guns has the highest muzzle energy? I was thinking about rh120 l55a1 and rh130 l52 nato production and 2a82m-1 and 2a46m-5 of Russian production.

If you include prototypes the french 140mm probably has the highest.

The Germans are also working on a 130mm cannon that might be another option for the future Franco-German tank.

you can consider a prototype but all in all I'd prefer a comparison of the four
