India to Develop New Tank, Use Russian Armata as Prototype

[Arsalan]

Why wouldn't India just buy this tank off the shelf and invest energy+resources on something which is not already as good as it wants. It would be a stupid move to take Armata and then build another tank on top... its like taking F-22 and building a better jet on top, specially you have absolutely no reputation of success and have few flop/under performance projects to showcase. If objective is to get India a tank, that is certainly not the way to go about it.

that is exactly what will be done sir,
you still do not understand these things?

Armata should be a no go from the very start. Work on Arjun Mk2 and that should be enough to meet our requirements. Stop fantasizing about foreign maal.

In fact we can turn Arjun into something like T 95 and use it for elite units.

That child is protecting the country, not those f***tards in DRDO.

Tell DRDO to learn to make weapons before whining.

Any real patriot would support their troops as you do... Many Indians here are excited about fancy equipments but forget about the troops. India need more patriots like you.

There's a demand for 800-1000 Arjun MK2s for our western border, and we can divert T-90s into North East.

Fair enough. Point that out to me if he does that again and I will believe you. But So far, in this thread alone, That is not the case.

There are threads running on DRDO and another on rafale procurement. He was proven wrong multiple times in those threads. Anyways, have fun!
