Arjun-II MBT development l Updates & discussion.

[Gessler]

@gslv mk3 there is a difference between a jet and a tank./. Lol .. But what would you know you failed on both accounts..

Not true. We have made ~200 Su-30MKIs and have
800+ T-90 tanks, both these are 'indigenous' according
to Pakistani logic...so, you are wrong.

 

[Hellfire]

Arjun Mk-II can fire Lahat.but can it be used to fire Refleks ATGM too(most probably no as it is designed for 125 mm gun)???also,any comparison between these two??

Yes. Both can be fired

 

[Gessler]

Loser first make it operational .. Or is it anther face saving exercise like Arjun with its 118 units in service which are of no real use..

Number in service are 124, not 118. The 118
number is the no. of Arjun Mk-2s ordered.

Cool now keep using them instead of ur sups dupa lca or Arjun..

It seems you don't know a thing about either equipment. You should keep admiring junk fighter-17 and A-K tank and continue to believe they are superior to F-22 Raptor and M1A2 Abrams respectively.

Yes face saving exercise with IAF inducting it ( 40 mk 1 on order ) & navy ordering them to replace the sea harrier....
Both these are unlike your AF that doesnt have any choice other than 'Joint' cheesyFighter 17 ....

Now do you know that we operationalised our first indigenously developed jet fighter in the 60s ??

Now go loser ,go make the first indigenous Pakistani aircraft (non-existant) operational...!!!!

Use of Arjun is well documented and identified in western deserts. Hence increasing numbers of the same are being ordered in an on-going process. T-90s are being inducted due to the fact that along with previously existing T-72s, they shall be forming the bulk of tanks as Arjun was ready only by 2006 while contract for T90s was done in 2000. So the same is continuing. Additionally, due to the inability to air lift Arjun by IL-76/C-17 transport, India still needs the narrowed T types. Especially in view of additional 02 x independent armored brigades being raised under the aegis of new mountain strike corps viz in Ladakh and Eastern sector.

@ gessler and gslv mk3: guys he has managed to junk the thread by you guys posting one after another in reply to his needling. You are trolling as much as he. So maybe if you have nothing to add, can it and don't derail the thread.

Additionally, whether we like it or not, JF-17 is airborne and proven now. LCA is in process of same. So you can't deride what is operational and for him he can't what is being operationalized. So please ignore him and add what you can here

 

[Hellfire]

now tell us how obsolete n useless it is.

stop the trolling if you don't have anything to add. Rebut on facts. M1A (Abrams) project was launched in 1970s by US to replace M60s. The first of M1s came only in 1984. In 1991 in 1st Gulf war, US had majority of M60s and few M1s which were under going up gradation of their armor due to emergence of FSAPDS LRPs which were able to penetrate the earlier M1s armor with added protection of layer of Depleted Uranium. Additionally, the gun of M1 is German (Rhinemetall) so you can really can your 'long process - still evolving' non-sense. And one can not deny M1s are doing exceptionally well on the battle fields even after almost 40 years since they were conceptualized.

Low crap aircraft n Arjunk are failures .. Search the forum n you will find the threads.. Or give me half an hour.. N Il post them with data. Or you n ur gang can keep crying. :lol

Rifled barrel Gun can fire those round (missiles) using ring around the ammunition. Just imagine a bearing between Missiles and barrel. Once missile leave barrel, the bearing disintegrate and missile leave as it is leaving smooth barrel gun.

The Arjun Mk.II main battle tank made its debut at India's 65th Republic Day Parade today. Incorporating over seventy improvements over the Arjun Mk.I, the improved variant is in a final phase (hopefully) of user trials, according to the DRDO. In a statement put out yesterday, the DRDO stated, "Arjun Mark II incorporates enhanced firepower with Automated Target Tracking and greater variety of ammunition including Gun-fired anti-tank missile and the devastating Thermobaric ammunition; enhanced protection that include Explosive Reactive Armor, Laser Warning come Countermeasure System, a Mine Plough, a Remotely operable Anti-Aircraft weapon, a Roof mounted driving seat; Advanced Land Navigation System and Enhanced night vision capabilities."

Fondly referred to as ‘Desert Ferrari’ for its mobility, Main Battle Tank (MBT Arjun) MK-II, would be among the several indigenously developed weapons on display at this year’s Republic Day Parade on Sunday.

Anybody remember reading this ancient article on Arjun mk2?

http://the_kitsune.tripod.com/Rifts-Earth-Vehicles/Indian_Arjun_MkII_MBT.htm

This article was written before India-US relations grew and it speculated US would wage war on India by 2012 and Arjun 2 would be there to defend.

I read it way back in 2006.
