[JonAsad]

No sh*t! This thread isn't about me. Well done! Then why did you direct your statements at me by quoting me?

For a guy- who cannot know the difference- first part of my post was for you- the later for every body else- now again come up with a lame excuse- i am waiting- what you didn't get?- Explain

ArjunK is better than AL-Khalid like LCA is better than JF-17.

@ glorius: here's your 1st example mate !! I never seen him before posting substantial in any thread ,just hoping and jumping ,laughing like stup (did i missed anything??)

till then go to sleep and have sweet dreams about Arjuns superiority over Al Khalid while we work on a newer much advanced Al Khalid II.

What? India isnt making a Mark 2? Matter a fact there will be another tank after mark 2 India will be working on. Its India's second tank...

 

[Developereo]

Over the last four months, the army had systematically signalled that it did not want to buy more Arjuns.
[...]
the Arjun production line at the Heavy Vehicles Factory (HVF) in Avadi, near Chennai, needs more orders urgently.
[...]
But Business Standard has learned that senior officers are hesitant to induct the Arjun into strike corps.

Fanboys quoting fanboys notwithstanding, the above are the only facts that matter.

Bro- be practice- give me one- as it should be-

nope our strike corps consists of both the T's and is complemented by the Arjun's which are lesser in number.......

 

[JonAsad]

you should be better care about general pakistan public mate... Most of pakistani open threads claiming Pakistan rejected F 18 or abhram because it failed to qualify but the truth it failed to qualify when it comes to operiatonal cost.
P.S- prove me wrong with official pakistan /american statement ...

PANDORA go to your BOX mate- you are trolling- off topic-

What are the armour specifications of the Arjun?

Also what APFDS rounds are used and what is their penetration capabilities?

Heard the Al Khalid can't take in the Long Rod penetrators is that true?The longest Chinese APFDS round is 560mm (Quoted from Zraver http://www.defence.pk/forums/land-f...-number-tanks-pakistan-army-6.html#post442074) long being used on their tanks so is it the same for the Al Khalids as well?

Yup- but there is only one dedicated MBT- is arjun 1?

I do not know about the pak tanks but Arjun has Kanchan composite armour which has passed all tests including withstanding a direct hit from a Bhishma...the armour is also used on our IFV(?)

thats pretty old news.....
new one is 246 mk 1 ordered
surprisingly mk 2 is already ready..

 

[Lord Of Gondor]

is it necessary to have just one dedicated mbt,if yes then why? And if not,then your question has been answered......:wink:

Ever heard of the world Russian Lobbying and the word corruption ??

Arjun is a victim of it at the hands of the top brass in the Army which for no sane reason seems to be in love with the Russian imported products after it has been repeatedly proved that even the vannila version of Arjun (MkI) outgunned and outran T-90 in the comparitive trials.

We've all heard that but what are it's armour specs in RHA of the Kanchan?Also the DRDO guys never told us what are the penetration capabilities of the Israeli 125mm APFDS rounds is.I think we use the M711 Tungsten APFDS round.It has a penetration value of 560mm RHA at 2km.

IFV?It was only used on the Abhay which was experimental.
