India decided to create a new tank platform

Indian Defense Ministry intends to replace all available in the army (2 thousand 414 units) Tanks T-72, considering them obsolete, reports Look with reference to the Livefist Defense resource.

And this is not about acquiring other, more modern tanks, but about developing a new tank platform of our own production. Soon to be announced the start of the competition.

Total military department intends to purchase about 2-x thousand tanks on the new chassis. The first vehicles must be handed over to the army in 2025-2027.

On the basis of the platform is planned to create a family of combat vehicles. The project was named FRCV. It is described as “medium weight platform” suitable for use in “semi-desert and desert terrain”.

In March, the media reported that Russia and India began negotiations on a multi-million dollar deal to modernize T-90 tanks. India is armed with more than 950 such machines. India is traditionally the largest buyer of Russian weaponsin particular, armored vehicles.

and they succeeded in the “old” tank platform, I understand correctly, since they decided to stir up a new one?

They want to make a copy with the T-14? So they are not Chinese, they don’t know how to work.

The Chinese are also not able to "lick" the T-14, as it is not in the troops yet. As for the statement of the Indians ... there is no school, there are no traditions, there are no specialists either, well, they have nothing to tank, based on the results of the last biathlon. What then to say?

If today they start in 50 years will be.

[just exp]

they will not start today, they started 40 years ago, but things are still there.

[Berber]

Moreover, the Chinese do not get everything smoothly. But what they are trying is good.

No, Abrams .... The dollar is ALMIGHTY ... India has taken the path of DESTRUCTION.

Lord, the clock is already counting the last hours of the world. And if nothing changes, it will soon LOSE. And I still do not see who and how is capable of stopping them. Here, Trump REFUSED to meet with Putin, defiantly leaving the meeting room earlier than everyone, although it was their side that just wanted this meeting. And then the news comes that Poroshenko changes the commander in the anti-terrorist operation zone, appointing Lieutenant General Mikhail Zabrodsky, born in 1973

What is not a year is the same song. But what about their "old" platform of the Arjun tank ..? Most likely this is again another stuffing in order to modernize these tanks but on more favorable terms. It is clear that over 2 thousand units of cars no one will be allowed to scrap. And you can make a good upgrade with refinement to the level of T-90.

Yes, perhaps the Indians decided to just make us lower the price of our weapons and those of them. service.

No, it’s not right, the old is outdated, a new one is needed. Only such grandiose plans to create a new platform and put into service

The first cars should be transferred to the army in 2025-2027.

Not a single leading tank power (well, if only the Chinese) sets such a deadline ...

[Jedi]

And it’s not about acquiring other, more modern tanks, but about developing a new tank platform of our own production.

Oh how! With “Arjun” everything worked out - that means, and here they will succeed. Good luck, Indians!

India is a macaque that rushes between smart and beautiful! One is not completed, the other is taken ...
What they will not undertake - the Kama Sutra turns out! `` Kamasutra '' with dancing ...

[Jedi]

I suspect that the Indians are really counting on the help of new "friends" - the United States.

[Anarchist]

Max, What did the Americans learn to do tanks?
There you need to figure out who is counting on whom ...

The main thing is that this platform does not turn upside down with caterpillars ... How to keel up your ships .. You know how.

[Aaron Zawi]

However, this is not even funny.

[Incvizitor]

The main thing is larger pendants.

[Warrior-80]

The Jews there even laugh, although they are doing better than Russian weapons, be afraid soon the Indians will surpass your merkava

[Alex_59]

They already tried to make their tank, it was an epic unfinished building. All the same, the division of labor takes place in the family of the peoples of the world. Cars are Germans and Japanese, wine is French, Indians are funny films, and tanks are Russian. Well, the Indians don’t get a tank, so what can I do ...

In films, too: if at the beginning of the Indian film a gun hangs on the wall, then at the end of the film it will sing and dance.

Hindus and tanks, Hindus and submarines, Hindus and ... much of which high-tech things are incompatible ..... but Hindus and cinema, yes ...)

[St Petrov]

but the Indians and the cinema, yes yes .....))))

in bollywood, popular Russians. several friends are already filming there. They drove to relax at the resort

very interesting, the middleweight platform. probably they’ll buy from the Turks.

Are you going to make a hodgepodge of technology in Russia and the USA? Well, let's see, the saw cutters of the budget also appeared among the Idus in the Ministry of Defense ....

[Romanenko]

Why not, let them try to create.
The matter is not complicated, for this, it’s necessary nonsense, 70 years of experience, victories and mistakes in building tanks, metallurgy of the appropriate level, brains, engines and, without fail, a bit of luck.
And everything will turn out!
The main thing here is to start with a trifle - to make your own T-72 yourself, for starters, with the same characteristics.

[Mountain shooter]

Yah! And who will believe it? Again, "rotten bazaars" in the trade. This is to get so much money ...

It is described as an “average weight platform” suitable for operation in a “semi-desert and desert area”.

Apparently they want to stir up the modernization of their T-72 on the cheap, so they blow up soap bubbles about the new platform!

[faiver]

indian tank platform? chur me, maybe my grandchildren will see this

[Sergei75]

ABOUT! We’ve already done a fifth-generation fighter with them, now tanks .... Everything will merge, gentlemen, Indians.

[Machete]

Great tank power. So many good tanks have already been released. An urgent need to make a new platform.

[APASUS]

I can even guess which platform the Indians mean. The focus with the 5th generation fighter reminds me, at first they were all happy, but dissatisfied voices went about the problems of the projects. I think the level of technology transfer has passed and now they don’t need our specialists anymore?

[Piramidon]

Hindus -. After they allowed the Pindocs to rummage through our submarine, I would not sell the nail to this camp either.
PS But, Rogozin and the hedgehog with him, know better.

[uporov65]

The Indians do not currently have Captain Nemo, which means that we will not see the new tank soon either. All they can do is improve the old, for example, hang up the armor of elephants.

[A.Kaledin]

Copy the T-90 will be called in its own way, that's the whole new platform :))

[Sands Careers General]

They have a copy of the T-90, called Bhishma.

[Former battalion commander]

These Indians did their tank Arjun AJ for 20 years and Nichrome couldn’t even get close to the T72 in terms of parameters. And here is the "new platform", the "family of combat vehicles." I think these Indians will need two hundred years to do such things judging by their previous "successes." But as they say "the flag in your hands and a feather in the ass - FLY."

[Sands Careers General]

Indians are troubled, they have nothing to do. As I laughed at them in a tank biathlon, they screwed up heavily with their modification of the T-90. What the hell is a new tank for them? To know how to sing and dance?
