[jha]

he Polish largest arms producer Bumar will deliver 204 WZT-3M Armored Recovery Vehicles under a US$275 million signed earlier this week in New Delhi, Tomasz Basarabowicz reports. According to the agreement the vehicle production will be done primarily in India, by BELM, which has already produced 362 WZT-3 supplied for the Indian Army so far.

Poland will supply with sub assemblies, kits and components.

Since 1999 India has ordered 556 WZT-3M ARVs, to support the armored units equipped with T-90 and T-72 armor units deployed with the Indian Army. The WZT-3 is based on the PT-91 chassis, the Polish derivative of the T-72M.

We need to blame our administration for the hungry part, but the defense spending is a necessity.

Recovery vehicles do not strengthen the armoured core. For some reason Indian high command thinks they would need more recovery vehicles to recover "Al-Khalid's" targets

You will not understand It is beyond your mental frequency that if damaged tanks will become battle worthy soon it somehow strengthen the armored core.

Do not bring Al khalid everywhere. I can see Pakistaniz cannot live without being compared.

Dont service stations where we get our cars serviced / repaired strengthen the supply chain of the automobiles ?

Do you expect an armoured formation to be without its recovery resources ?

A poor attempt at jest.

The ARV has a pneumatic spade in the front, a multipurpose aid.
