bro, how about installing RGP-29 on our tanks?
View attachment 154096
I think its not practical, it requires an operator to handle it, its really an infantry weapon or for a vehicle like an APC / IFV where there is personal to do it. Its also more of a close range weapon.
I just did some research about the Lahad missile that is part of the T-55 upgrade and found out that India rejected it because it doesn't meet specs. Its supposed to have a 6 km range, but the Indians tested it and it has less than 1200 m effective range, which is very bad. The whole point of the tank having a missile is so that it can engage an enemy tank before our tank is within their range, a tank gun can easily have an effective range of no less than 2 km, so if the missile only has 1200 m, this is bad.
Now I see 2 things that I don't like in the T-55 upgrade, $930.000 is too much if you get little for that money; I can see why the army keeps going back and forth with it; there is resistance to it.
