So basically some features that are already present on the T-14 like the pterodactyl drone, an APS, 360 degree radar and infrared coverage, but nothing yet if the tank has what amount of armour protection or what it can penetrate to. So Germany has finally caught up.

Non whatsoever…..
NGMBT and Zorawar Light Tank
You do not know that for certain. I would not put it past the Army to go for the Armata at the cost of local developments and quite honestly, that'd be the logical option simply because DRDO will never be able to make something that comes even close to it let alone match it.

Yeah, perhaps because they have got only a handful of those in active service?? Perhaps because there are not enough well-trained crews. Or perhaps they do not need to at this point?? Ever given any consideration to these probabilities?? - There could be any number of reasons why they are not fielding it in Ukraine.

And just to reply in your own logic - ever wonder why all of a sudden, the Germans and Muricans are now scrambling to develop brand new MBT concepts right after the Ruskies unveiled this new toy of theirs but not for the Arjun MkIA?? Now chew on that, kid.

The western tank developments are not a response to the Armata, rather they are at that phase of their planning cycle of hell, where they are considering unmanned turret and 3-man configurations again.
The only reason why they are not fielding the Armata is it's unfinished and is mostly paraded around during events. Since we are actively perusing a similar config on our next tank projects as well, why would we give more money to russkies to help finish their development ? You can cry and cope all you want, no more russkie tanks are coming over.

Nope, not at all!! Both the Germans and Americans are actively investing in newer guns and ammo just to counter the Armata!! Where the hell have you been living - mars??!!

It IS finished and has just entered serial production. Of course, as a brand new design, there are bound to be more than a few teething issues but they will be resolved in dew time.

yeah, there is a lightyear of a gap between pursuing and actually succeeding, kid and their performance with armored vehicles so far does not instill much confidence at all. Forget about tanks, motherfuckers can't even come up with an APFSDS round that can pen over 500 mm RHAe at 2000 meters for crying out loud!!

Yeah, we'll see who gets reduced to crying and coping soon enough.

Fucking great, can't counter the actual points, so stoop down to personal attacks, just as should be expected from your average DFI user.
what counter points ? russkie claims about their produkt being ready for hell and back ? magical reports on this supposed production line ? If the armata was ready it'd see action already. But nooo they are just training for the past few years.
Also don't cry about personal attacks when you open with calling others "kid" when they don't agree with your fantasy wank.

drdo's zorawar was quite a paradigm shift, ngmbt might be in theory good but if its manufacturer is shite we're getting another arjun
What actual paradigm did it shift, mind telling us?? That hunk of junk comes with a protection level of a mere STANAG 4569 level II III which means it can't even resist .50 cal AP rounds on the frontal arc!! Shit's a fucking death trap!! So, yeah, if you meant a paradigm shifted in that particular direction, then you were definitely correct.
