INSIDE ARJUN TANK

great info...thanks

The above illustration graphically illustrates how exactly the Arjun Mk1 MBT will be employed in a future armoured campaign, as visualised by the Indian Army's Directorate General of Mechanised Forces. It is in such a scenario that the Arjun Mk1 MBT will be subjected to competitive firepower and mobility trials against the T-90S MBT early next year. As the Arjun Mk1 comes equipped with a battlespace management system (BMS) and the T-90S does not, the former will have a decisive edge against the T-90S when it comes to enhanced situational awareness, as the Arjun Mk1 will be able to get real-time SITREPS on enemy dispositions and movements from the Army's Corps-level BMS (which in turn derive their real-time inputs from UAVs) and be able to engage in decisive manoeuvre warfare of the type not possible at the moment with either the T-90S or the T-72M1 Combat Improved Ajeya MBTs. No wonder the Indian Army is coy about subjecting the Arjun Mk1 MBT and T-90S to competitive performance trials. It's that simple--Prasun K. Sengupta

the interior of Arjun is look much better than the tanks shown above.

buddy please post it again

the interior of Arjun is look much better than the tanks shown above.

eaxactly this is what i wanted to explain,the interior ergonomics of a tank plays a very vital in the protection of its crew from the trauma i.e post hit affects..for example a tank with more gauges,analogue gear will have more chances of injuring its crew when the tank is hit..because of the damage these parts tend to come from thier slots a high speed......if one has seen a merkava 4 from the inside or for that matter a interior pic you will simply surprised to see the space which is present inside they can actually evacuate injured in case of an emergency or can make a few mounted soldier sit inside

Transmission Controller for Indigenous Transmission System of MBT ArjunTransmission Controller

Combat Vehicles Research & Development Establishment (CVRDE), Avadi, has developed an Indigenous Transmission Controller for Indigenous Transmission System of MBT Arjun. This is a heavy duty, high power transmission-cum-steering system. This hard-wired semi-automatic transmission controller developed to control the above transmission, caters for manual mode of operation. In manual mode, gear- selection is left to the driver from 1st to 4th gear. The electronic control box receives control commands from the gear selection unit. After processing these commands, control logic signals are sent to actuate solenoid valve to shift gears or inhibit certain actions. Gear selector unit and transmission junction box have been developed and integrated in the indigenous transmission vehicle. Field trials compiling 1200 km have been successfully completed.

The main features of the transmission controller are:

*

Four forward and two reverse speed operation selection
*

Lock-up converter operation for smooth gear shift during change of gears by disengaging the converter solenoid for a minimum period of 600 ms
*

Lock-up solenoid operation by engaging first and third gear simultaneously
*

Direction lever-lock at engine speed exceeding safety limit and unlock mechanism to prevent accidental direction selection, and
*

Safety provision for engaging the gear-solenoid after sensing the control pressure using the pressure switches.

Mechanical Steering Unit for MBT Arjun

The Hydrostatic Steering Unit of MBT Arjun is a highly sophisticated component which is not available indigenously in higher power range for heavy vehicles like Arjun tank weighing over 58 tons. Therefore, a necessity was felt to develop a mechanical system to meet the steering requirement of MET Arjun as a fall back option for this imported critical component.The Combat Vehicles Research & Development Establishment (CVRDE) Avadi, has designed, developed and successfully lab tested the Mechanical Steering Unit. It is simple, light and efficient steering system meeting the battlefield requirements of all possible maneuvering. The transmission fitted with mechanical steering unit is likely to be installed in the test vehicle shortly for carrying out automotive trials.

Sorry I cant post the Image .... Some problem it seems,

 

[letsbefriends]

There is nothing one can do Knowing Whats Inside..... its well known for everyone, But yeah, there are certain Systems which should not be displayed... I would keep that in mind

sir ji, a question for u..can u plz tell that despite outgunning and outmaneuvering the t-90 the numbers r still so low???(just 4 regiments)it can perform everything the t 90 can and also a lot more stuff..i would have loved if we produced atleast500 mk1 and the mk2 version to replace the t72's..also i cannot unerstand is army is arguing that in 10 years arjun's technology n design will become obsolete then why r they buying more than 1600 t 90's??? if the t90' can stay in indian army till 2040 then y not the mk 1 version in good no's??
