The T-90 is better then anything the PA has, anyone who thinks the AK will stand a chance against the T-90 needs a god damn reality check, its time PA looked at a new induction, upgrading the AK wont change much. the PA needs to employ new AT weapons at the very least and mass produce them, HJ-8/Baktar shikan wont do a damn thing against the T-90s
No, it is not, in fact, the t-90 lacks a true hunter-killer fire control system, panoramic sight, battle management system with network centric warfare capability. Heck, it even lacks a proper environment control system for keeping vetronics from frying. And its has less turret frontal armor compared to Alkhalid series.
As for anti-tank weapons, Pakistan has several options including decent APFSDS rounds approaching and exceeding 600mm+ penetration of steel and composite armor. On the other hand, IA lacks decent APFSDS rounds. Thier indigenous rounds are duds, they banned IMI that could give them a good 125mm round so there goes the ammo part.
Lastly, they are struggling to develop a decent anti tank penetration for Arjun, the current round could barely penetrate Type-59Ms frontal armour.
