calm down rajeet. china will be with you shortly
The design does not make much sense for India.
They would have been better off with a medium tank that could operate in either high elevations, or jungle environment.
This is too heavy for either. What were they thinking?
>>32598217
Probably the worst MBT currently in service, which is impressive when you consider that things like the Ariete, Leclerc, and Challenger 2 are now over twenty years old.
"New tank ammunition called 'Penetration-Cum Blast (PCB) and Thermobaric (TB) Ammunition' is specially designed for Arjun Tank."
I'm always amazed by the use of archaic English in the sub-continent. I know cum is grammatically correct but it just cracks me up. A penetration cum blast missile? Really, India?
>>32598217
Almost as good as a Abrahams.. Well one that's been scrapped/blown up/monkey modeled

They'd be better off building something under license like challenger 1's or just buying upgraded t-72's. They're only real threat is type-99's/96's
>>32598217
The Tejas of tanks.

>or just buying upgraded t-72's
Thats what they do. They have more T-90s on order than Arjuns.
>>32598609
whats the point of the arjun then? is it just india going "look we can into tanks too"
>>32598636
>"look we can into tanks too"
Yes, it is only that. The T-90s are even built in India, so they don't even have the local production argument.
>>32598217
Nobody knows a thing about it. But the fact that it is utterly XBOXHUEG! despite having not a single feature you don't meet in smaller packages in other MBTs allows us to make the assumption the engineering is unoptimized as fuck, so probably not too great of a tank. But India wants to learn to make tanks as well as planes and pretty much everything, so there's that. It's a transition design at best while their engineers improve.

/k/ should buy one and call it the arjun/k/
100% indigenous Indian design with 80% foreign components.
