70
According to the online publication "Messenger of Mordovia", The RF military department announced India's plans to take part in the next tank biathlon at tanks T-90S "Bishma".

Earlier in Alabino, only China and Belarus demonstrated the capabilities of their armored vehicles. The arrival of Indian partners will increase the entertainment and intensity of the competition and, given the characteristics of Bishma, will enable the Indians to return home with a victory.

India arrives at biathlon with T-90C Bishma


This type of tank is assembled in India, which is the largest operator of the T-90, under a Russian license. The country's army is armed with approximately 1 thousand vehicles, which significantly exceeds their fleet in the Russian Armed Forces. National tank "Arjun" It requires significant improvements, in connection with which it did not make sense to nominate him for a competition.

T-90C Bhishma - version of the tank T-90С for the army of India. The tank has additional built-in dynamic protection units. Equipped with a B-92C2 engine (1000 hp). In 2001, India signed contracts with Russia for the supply of X-NUMX T-1450S Bhishma tanks manufactured by Uralvagonzavod (Nizhny Tagil), of which 90 were shipped directly by Russia, and the rest are assembled under license in India.

        Tank biathlon itself is spectacular and interesting. As for the Indian T-90S Bishma, because in Formula 1 the teams are also not driving the same cars. A variety of techniques will only add intrigue and entertainment. Glory hi hi

            You confuse the REQUIREMENTS with the facts of achievement. There are no requirements restricting one more. than others. Here are the achievements in different cars are different. Thus, there are competitions not only drivers-athletes, but also cars. If you want to conduct competitions only for athletes, offer to hold competitions on serial cars shot from one conveyor and distributed by lot. This kind of competition is basically absurd.

    Very interesting! Personal opinion - our Indians will thump because of superior dexterity, but the competition will become tougher and more spectacular.

    Perhaps specifically for biathlon they will make a new modification of the 72nd.

    It is not practical for us to exhibit the T-90 - this would be tantamount to recognizing the T-72 as completely obsolete.

      At this Biathlon training ground in Russia, the Russian team is constantly training.
      Drivers know every pothole, every gyrus: where to slow down, where to jerk.
      The targets were also thoroughly studied.
      It turns out a tangible advantage over the guests.
      Biathlon should be held at an independent training ground of a neutral country. Where are all the guests
      have the opportunity to go the route an equal number of times, studying it.

        Not certainly in that way! If you carefully watch this action, then pay attention to the crews, or rather the geography of the crews. There are crews from Buryatia, the Urals and closer to Moscow. I don’t think that instead of serving in their military unit they train exclusively at this training ground, no one canceled them from military service or contract service in their units ....

          And this is unacceptable.

            You can be sure of anything. Rules for the preparation and conduct of TB, international refereeing exist a little bit regardless of this. There would be claims - the same Belarusians with the Chinese would definitely not hesitate to state.

        voyaka uh Azerbaijan, for example, built a one-on-one training ground as in the Russian Federation. Knowingly sending representatives there so that they all measured the Russian Federation was not opposed. Although they spoke on the B-3 modification (unfamiliar) but didn’t perform poorly. As the saying goes, if possible let other countries repeat. All the same, these are just games. It would be interesting to see the Azans with the T-90, and the T-72 modified with the help of Israel with a regular dvigl would be weaker about the FCS, I don’t know for sure I can’t say which is better.
