Good that you started focussing on topic, instead of trolling with Leclerc, merkava, al-khalid:cheers:
If you say so. Its your opinion against experts.
So you are saying Krauss-Maffei of germany did not designed the tank??
Maybe thats the reason army was rejecting repeated, untill...
You atleast know am not pulling from thin air. Good.:police:
About the rest hiding behind AL-Khalid, leclerc et el.....Am SURE most will agree that am stating facts and there is nothing "indigenous" about Arjun MBT.
Even the design is flawed, which has not been corrected till now.
Well, how can they correct, since it was designed by West German firm
1. The turret and hull design are not suitable for smooth operation-the turret
hits the driver when in an open-up position. The driver cannot enter or exit...
Fair enough, Lets go through each item by item
* Designed by Karuss -west German
* Tank Gun - Rifled, British
* Engine -- MTU, German
* Transmission -- Renk, German
* Main Gunner Sights-- Assorted, International vendors
* Tracks --Again German
*...
This thread is regarding Indigenous Content in Arjun, am unable to see beyond hull and turret shell. This is also due to extensive consultancy by krauss of west germany, who made some side money passing down some handme design.
Even here the make-up of armour and design is from 1980's, don't...
The persistance usage of AL-Khalid as a shield is amusing and at the same time pathetic.
If anyone has any reservation, please do highlight.
But then again hiding behind Al-Khalid is the safe bet. For each one knows "indigenous" is nothing but hot air.
37 years are lot time,expecting atleast half the system to develop in that time is reasanable.
What do you say????
37 years is moderate?:no:
With almost 80% components sourced outside??
YAWN:blah::blah::blah::blah:
:rofl::rofl::rofl:
Glad you have objection on Gun only. I assume you agree on the rest.
The origin of Arjun gun is Technology transfer and license production agreement between UK and India on Vickers Tank. Yeah the vijyanta one.
Arjun was armed initially with the same 105 mm vickers/vijyanta rifled gun...
Maybe you are right:D, but this thread is not about that:sniper:
By raising un-related topic, you are trolling on this thread.
I hope this is not repeated.
If you still interested about AL-Khalid, open a thread for the same:pdf:
So to recap "Indigenous" Arjun tank
Designed by Karuss -west German
Tank Gun - Rifled, British
Engine -- MTU, German
Transmission -- Renk, German
Main Gunner Sights-- Assorted, International vendors
Tracks --Again German
Whats left Machine gun not even that:lol...
Here comes cry baby. Why do you whine so much, either accept the fact and move on or say it is not the case.
The constant whining and playing victim is not amusing now.
If you have this urge to diss painting et el , go to the concerned threads:wave:
