Russia supplied India with Mango tank shots

Russian concern "Techmash" has completed a major contract for the supply to India tank shots "Mango", the head of the enterprise Vladimir Lepin told reporters on Thursday.

In 2017, a number of BTC contracts were executed. For example, a major contract has been completed for the supply of 3BBM17 finished products (125-mm mango tank shots) to India. The delegation of the customer came to Russia, participated in the inspection of products and was completely satisfied with their quality.

- declared Lepin

In addition, the production of Mango from Russian components has already been launched in India, "preparations are under way for tests of products assembled by Indian specialists." This year a substantial part of the necessary equipment was supplied.

According to Lepine, India has a desire to continue cooperation on this topic for at least a five-year perspective.

OBPS "Mango" is a feathered armor-piercing piercing projectile to tank guns of caliber 125-mm, developed in the USSR. Work on the “Mango” theme was launched in the 1983 year, the projectile was adopted in the 1986 year. Designed for firing at tanks, self-propelled guns, dock embrasures, armored caps and other armored targets. Used for shooting from X-NUMX-mm smooth-bore tank guns D-125 (81А2, 26А2), tank gun 46А2 (75 С2 "Sprut-SD") and anti-tank gun 25-PCN-SNNUMX "Sprut-SD") and anti-tank gun 2-PCN-SNNUMX "Sprut-SD") and anti-tank gun 45-CNN "Xente SD"

Eugene, I advise you to still watch the dances of Hindu artillerymen around the cannons on YouTube.

You say yes, do not talk, the Indians have great military experience, which the yellow do not have from the word at all. And dances and flowers are nothing more than paratroopers who beat bottles on their heads — in fact, they are no different.

That’s exactly the essence of it. The dances and flowers are for girls, and the bubble on the head is for men.

OBPS "Mango" - a feathered armor-piercing sub-caliber projectile for tank guns of caliber 125 mm

At 9.09 min

[Jack O'Neill]

For export "Mango", the most perfect projectile, and the basis of our tanks.
And the projectile has 450-mm on 2km normal (homogeneous armor).

[_Jack_]

What is the "most perfect"? We have crowbars in 1,5-2 times more armor penetration - 3BM48 Lead, Lead-1, 2.

[Jack O'Neill]

There is, and so what? Do we export them? Not.
Or "Lead-1 / 2" main BOPS of our tanks? Not..
What trouble?

[_Jack_]

Trouble is that Mango is completely outdated against modern tanks, even without DZ it is useless, and with DZ even more so. It is just such that it is necessary to sell, but it makes no sense to use it yourself.

[Vlad.by]

Are you ready to get into a tank for testing when she is shelled by this fruit?
In general, I believe that on arrival at the tower with a sub-caliber any tank in 80 will be removed from battlefield - the entire hinge and optics will end, and even if it survives something, then the sights under adjustment, rotation of the tower and the raising of the gun are questionable, yes and the crew is most likely specifically shell-shocked and hardly operational.

[Jack O'Neill]

Ready! But depending on which ... In M48A1 - no, but in M1A1 HA - yes.

In vain do you think ...
BOPS is not OFS. If you do not break through, then just collapse.
Yes, and why is the crew "concussion" should receive, especially for multi-layered armor? This is not a cast-iron bath ...

[Max golovanovo]

Ready! Do you know the joke about the Airborne Forces and is it ready? Not ready! I go! Ready! ... :) Good luck.

[Vlad.by]

I correctly understood that Abrams would be withdrawn from the battle not even by a sub-caliber, but by a banal OFS ???
The fact that he lights up when receiving a queue of 12,7 to the rear is known to everyone on the auxiliary engine. But that even the OFS is fatal for him is news to me.

[_Jack_]

Are you ready to get into a tank for testing when she is shelled by this fruit?

This is an excellent argument, suitable for the argumentation of the use of any obsolete weapons.
Are you ready to sit in a tank and engage in battle with an enemy whose scrap meter breaks when you have only 45 cm? And to know that your shell will almost certainly not break and its shell will almost certainly break? And this is so - Abrams crowbars got out of the T-72 engines (!!!) with a frontal hit (desert storm), and sub-caliber T-72 did not pierce Abrams forehead.

[Glory1974]

This is how it is - Abrams crowbars got from T-72 engines (!!!) during a frontal hit (desert storm), and sub-caliber T-72 did not pierce Abrams forehead.

Is it possible in more detail? I have not heard about this.

[Sergey74]

Do not exaggerate, in Iraq the old T-72s were also in service with export ones, their ammunition for tank guns was also old shaggy years.

[Ropusk]

You leave the girls in the tavern to surprise these tales. At the Abrams, the armor from the DShK is breaking through, about the CPVT we will generally be silent. And here you are talking about the useless 125 mm caliber projectile rubbing everything ...

[Boris Chernikov]

There are a couple of points: 1) Iraqi tanks had a simplified booking scheme, as evidenced by the tests of already purchased t-72b with K-5, all modern shells for that period did not penetrate t-72., 2) Iraqis used shells that even in the USSR were already withdrawn from service at that time

[Vadim237]

Dynamic protection against this BOPS won't really help, since it has a dual core

[aws4]

BOD DZ sideways is protection against kuma ... Ukrainians lie !!!!!

[Vadim237]

3БМ48 Lead, Lead-1, 2. There is neither one nor the other in service, the most “modern” ones, at the moment the BPS in the Russian army is “Mango”.

[_Jack_]

Only to fight with such "modern" is no longer possible. What modern tank can hit with such a penetration? No forehead. A modern scrap needs penetration of about a meter, and Mango can be safely sold to everyone who buys.

[Vadim237]

We will use what we have, new shells will go into tank troops only when the T 14 goes into service en masse. All the rest have a length of 740 millimeters for the AZ.

[_Jack_]

and Lead and Lekalo have a length of about 730 mm and can be used in the AZ T-90 and T-72B3, although they, in fact, no longer meet modern requirements

[Vadim237]

That’s why they’re not in service, but it’s like they launched a new tank cumulative round-trip projectile into the series, with armor penetration of 900 millimeters per DZ.

[Jack O'Neill]

Well M60 will take calmly.)
So if anything, then we ask amers to take M60 out of storage and fight them.)

[_Jack_]

So I’m talking about the same thing - Mango is only good for sale, you can’t fight with it. So you need to rejoice that someone else is buying them.

[Max golovanovo]

Clarify what you mean by the term forehead. Maybe VLD?

Mango is long out of date. Even the Romanians developed a shell for a 100mm rifled old lady T-10 with 450mm normal to 1km.

We in Russia talk like that. It does not matter to whom to sell and at what price. Just to buy. And what about the deal, the neighboring countries of India will give us a damn. We have become a mercantile country.

[Viktor.12.71]

The PRC will not be happy for sure, but the Chinese are still people and hold a grudge for a long time.

[Vadim237]

In the PRC, it is aware that these shells are a relic of the past - are outdated, but they can hit any tank on board.

[Alexey RA]

Ahem ... and where on the border of China and India are tank battles possible?

[Sergey74]

China itself sell everything in a row and sundry!)

And what's wrong with selling a stock of obsolete ammunition over a hill instead of spending money on their disposal?

That is, you urge not to trade at all. For all countries have neighbors.
By the way, and the USSR was also a mercantile country - just do not care about the opinion of neighbors in the supply of weapons? For example, when it supplied weapons to Egypt and Syria. Or the same India. Or Vietnam? Or Cuba? Or Somalia and Ethiopia - which as a result clashed with each other?

[Boris Chernikov]

something the same sales did not prevent the Union from considering itself a "merchant country"

[Dobriy_chelvek]

I don’t understand your fellow people, and they already said about lead and molecules, and they dragged an experimental cop, the name seems to be Break. Our tankers have a lot of problems, and this is the lack of a long shot, the uselessness of an anti-aircraft machine gun, the lack of a panoramic sight, which makes it difficult to shoot from any tank missile KUV, which is a reflex that is a cobra. So give the tankers better a good tank, hang them up like a slingshot, and the shot is long, and let them fight.

[Valery Saitov]

In terms of the development of BOPS from the late nineties, a lot of work was done, the backlog of which was made by BOPS 3BM39 Anker and 3BM48 Lead. These shells were significantly superior to such BPS as "Mango" and "Vant", the main difference was the new principles of the guidance system in the bore and the whole-core core made of material "B". It was these products that served as the basis for the creation of modern Russian BOPS of a new generation. However, at this stage, naturally no one denies that the BPS “Lead” at the moment is naturally outdated. However, the results obtained from these works served as a reserve for the creation of new, modern shells.
