Correction, the Arjun has arrived for head to head comparisons with the T-90 and T-72 starting in June. The video shot by a local TV station (local to the test course) did not show much but it did show the extremily smooth suspencion of the Arjun on a rough course. This is going to give the Arjun a huge edge over any tank in Asia but the US Abrams and South Korean K1/A1 and XK2. The Arjun's ride is smoother than the Abrams in fact, and that is an impressive feat.
That was first ever video of Arjun on a testing range. It always been a enigma tank. We dont have any proper video of Arjun shooting at targets.
However reading from numerous reports over the years, I can safely conclude that Arjun atleast does not issues overs shooting on the move,range or ability of armour.
This conclusion is based on the "cribbing" reports that generally come out. The Indian media has been cribbing about the most silly thing about these tanks.Hence if there were any issues with the gun or the armour,the IA would have gladly complained to the press and they would ripped DRDO apart.
Infact suspension was one of the most complained about in the press.
During the late 90's testing ,IA had complained that it is more accurate while shooting on the move,than when stationary.
. (I guess also an effect of IA was using it as a T-72,by expecting it to shoot better when stationary!)
Hopefully in the coming months,we have better videos on the tank.
There was this report over development of 1500hp engine for the tank.Within the report it had a comment about futuristic tank requirements being already in place. I guess this is probably a hint that Arjun MK2 in the pipeline/already worked on.
