Armored vehicles "Tiger" pursues mysterious failures in India

The situation with the refusal of India from the licensed production of infantry combat vehicles BMP-3, drew attention to the situation with armored Tiger.

So back in 2005, by the Bin Jabr Group (an Arab company producing a licensed copy of an armored car Tiger called Nimr) and an Indian Vectra Group. It was announced about the signing of an agreement on the establishment of a joint production of cars in India.

The Arabic version of the Tigr armored personnel carrier did not go into the series, although it was announced about the possible release of the 500 order of armored vehicles for the needs of the internal security forces and the ground forces of India.

But in the future, this decision opened up the possibility for the delivery of Russian SPM-1 "Tiger" armored vehicles with the wheel formula 4х4 to India. India's huge market and perennial story cooperation of the two countries, opened up bright prospects in Asia for the Arzamas engineering plant, which is engaged in the release of these armored vehicles.

So in 2008, an agreement was signed on the delivery to India of two Tiger armored vehicles in various designs for testing. The agreement was signed all with the same company Vectra Group. The Vectra Group company unites 18 companies that are engaged in various types of business in the Indian market, in Eastern Europe and other countries of the world. The main business areas of the company: aviation (in particular, the sale of helicopters), truck production, real estate, information technology, security systems, the oil industry.

The interest in the Tigr fighting vehicles was shown by units from the police, border guards and amphibious units. According to available information, in the case of successful tests already in 2009 year, it was planned to establish joint production in the number of 300 vehicles per year in India.

The armored cars "Tigr" differed from the base model primarily by the right-hand drive and single-door aft door and the installation of a special protective shield for the machine gunner on the roof, an automatic transmission and the installation of an air conditioner.

But further deliveries of experienced machines did not get. The tests showed the compliance of the armored vehicles with the tasks and demonstrated the high endurance and mobility of the Tiger combat vehicles, however, due to the complex decision-making system in the Indian Ministry of Defense, the contract was again frozen.

[Argon]

Given the information about the automatic transmission and air conditioning (this modification is not mass-produced), some displeasure is read between the lines, regarding the quality of the modifications made. Which is generally characteristic of our car industry.

[Horde]

Indians spoiled, give them all the comfort, however, if for the same money they find something like that, they put the flag in their hands. But as practice shows, bourgeois military cars are several times more expensive, the same will be the Italian-German solyanka with all their licenses.

The customer is always right, because he pays.
So if "The face is crooked, there is nothing to blame the mirror."
Personally, I have a big doubt about the reliability of the "Tiger", perhaps I am mistaken. Although if you look at what is happening in the Russian car industry, then where a miracle can come from, I personally do not understand. What is your own design? Almost nothing, foreigners rule the ball.

Do you have something against Lada? So, For reference: Formula 1 pilot, 2007 world champion of the year, Finnish race driver Kimi Raikonen in an interview said that his first car was the Soviet Lada, which he found with his father almost in a landfill. After the car was repaired, Kimi loved her very much and said that she practically did not break.
And about this news - the same garbage as with the Ukrainian armored personnel carriers. At the factory of receivers everything is fine and upon arrival at the destination problems begin. In my opinion, they stupidly bring down the price.

So they paid for the aircraft carrier, they told them - do not brick the boilers with Chinese brick, so no, they are very smart, asbestos is carcinogenic for them - the captain on the bridge suffocates to asthma. Well, well-wishers, like that, started a song about a backward Russian shipbuilder. Moreover, the Indians themselves did not issue penalties under the contract, as well as claims for the boat that we repaired and exploded in theirs, even now they ask for two more to be repaired. then you write your own girlish. After all, it is clearly stated in the article - "The tests showed the correspondence of armored vehicles to the assigned tasks and demonstrated the high endurance and mobility of the" Tiger "combat vehicles," so no

It is, of course, clear that there is no better "Oplot" machines in nature. Well, there is no way to kick the Russian one, even if this car is “Bin Jabr Group (an Arab company producing a licensed copy of the Tiger armored car called Nimr).” And it was a joint production of Arabs with the Indian Vectra Group. And that's how he says

Quote: Rustam

they have a requirement - they themselves must produce at least 50% of components. When we looked at production in 2008, it became clear that they could not pull more than 30% of components

What do we need - to build a vocational school for national cadres there and teach them workers!?
So if you see a crooked face in the mirror, immediately after reading the article, know this is yours.

From "Oplot" absolutely no capture. There are a lot of children's problems in it, but this is not the main thing. This is a machine of the past, but we must look ahead and there are problems here.
What about the aircraft carrier? The boilers are moody and unsuccessful. Our people, thanks to their ingenuity and perseverance, manage to work for them. And can the Indians? I don’t know, I personally have big doubts. However, after 10 years it will be possible to see.
And about our people, I will briefly tell you this story:
In the 80s, in the Lviv region in Rozdol, the French built a large chemical plant, almost similar to that located in the Stavropol Territory. It was all done. In the field of automation, CPUs were built, shutoff valves, sensors installed, cable routes extended. But the Americans did not put controllers with software, because of the dual purpose of the plant. And that the factory worked manually. There were a lot of problems, accidents, as they say, everything is as always. But the factory worked. In this state, he could work only with us, but not with them. As they say, that the Russian for health, the German death.
If you make a technique for them, then it must be done for them. And not only do, but also do full-fledged technical support and maintenance. And here, as usual .opa complete.

I will tell you so, it is impossible to be the first everywhere, because others are not fools either. There are excellent developments in other areas. Especially in areas where the capitalists did not see the benefits and meaning. But excuse me, but the region of the automotive industry, without exception (the former USSR), is a dense taiga. And what you call machines is cheap consumer goods, in principle, for us, because we are mostly poor people. The wagon is also a vehicle.

At the expense of the fact that we are poor, it depends on what to compare, we must not measure the salary, but what we can buy, with huge salaries in the West, with their taxes and payments, they can buy much less than we do!

Armored vehicles "Tiger" pursues mysterious failures in India

To complete the order, for India, you need to upgrade SMP2,, Tiger ,,.
Bring ballistic protection and mine protection to GAZ 2330 (Tiger 6A).
Strengthen the chassis, part, increasing the carrying capacity. That would be able to install additional reservations (composite armor).

And it is better to offer the Indians, tested (to undermine NO), SMP3,, Bear ,,,.
With the Indians, they would have undermined, they showed the reliability of the armored capsule.

The fact is that initially the vehicle (which later became the "Tiger") was developed for a foreign customer. The order for the creation of an armored vehicle was received by the designers of GAZ from the leadership of the armed forces of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in the late 1990s.
Prototypes and documentation for the machine were transferred in 2000 to the customer - the Bin Jaber Group (UAE). The Arab side refused from further joint work on this project. Using these prototypes, the "Nimr" car was later created in the UAE. At GAZ, in turn, they decided not to put the project on "shelves to gather dust", but to create a multipurpose vehicle ...

In Astana, a capsule was laid in a new plant for the production of special military and civilian vehicles with the participation of the Minister of Defense of the Republic of Kazakhstan Adilbek Dzhaksybekov and the mayor of the capital, Imangali Tasmagambetov.

Within the framework of the project, it is planned to build a technological complex with a capacity of 2015 to 120 special military and civilian vehicles per year in the territory of the Industrial Park of the SEZ “Astana - zhala kala” by 360.

Modern robotic equipment that allows you to implement a full cycle of work such as cutting and welding armor sheets, painting and assembling machines, conducting output quality control. The project provides for the production of not only military equipment, but also city buses.

The participants in this project are JSC National Company Kazakhstan Engineering, Paramount Group (South Africa) and Kazakhstan Engineering Distribution LLP, which signed in November this year a tripartite memorandum on the production of combat wheeled vehicles and their maintenance in Kazakhstan.

Such a project is being implemented for the first time in Central Asia and will create a highly profitable joint venture capable of providing a qualitative breakthrough in the defense and engineering industries.

By the way, we were also offered the assembly of the Tigers. But our military-industrial complex refused. I don’t know the reason, but apparently they were.

Cause; probably what requirements were presented by the country's leadership for performance characteristics, a promising armored car.
And companies from South Africa, all the same, offer the latest technologies to the arms market, according to the mine-protected armored vehicles of the MPRA.
Which you can buy on the world market, yankers and English, may not sell their armored cars .., referring to the secrecy of the development.

Russian car manufacturers, of course, can do such nonsense as to confuse a domestic buyer with a foreign one. Habits are preserved, make an openly unfinished design, and even from dubious components, and dump it all on special request to the army, where the military should make semi-finished products are full-fledged cars. Where do they go if the homeland ordered? And why do foreign buyers need this? The situation is aggravated by the fact that domestic arms dealers are the same officials. They can neither sell nor bargain. There was no competition for these positions, which means they are handed out to their people on patronage or for a bribe, as a profitable place. Therefore, they and no need to fuss.

It came out mine and mine protection

Quote: rolik2

the cost of such a car should be much less than an armored personnel carrier

Quote: wanderer_032

Of all the Tigers, only one model (6A for the transport of command personnel) is protected from explosions on mines

Colleagues, thank you for the clarification. Accepted. But the question is really open. And what, besides mines, there are no other means of warfare? But against them, the new armored vehicles are worse even than 60-year-old cars. And cheapness ... So, for the sake of cheapness, let the soldiers pay with their lives for the "economic efficiency" of the new leadership of the Ministry of Defense? All this is absolutely disgusting.

But worse than AlexA, the ballistic and most important mine protection is better.
And the main task of the MCI, under the cover of armor, is to deliver the soldier from point A to point B, alive and preferably without injury.
These are not assault vehicles, but essentially an armored personnel carrier, an armored personnel carrier.
To do this, create a BTR-T / BMP-T, tracked.
Although both are already created in the troops of their ZERO.
There are 12 units of BMO-T-machine of flamethrowers (BTR-T) and everything. For the whole army, but this is already traceless and does not care about the lives of ordinary soldiers !!!!

The answer is simple, this car is not for battle, it is a transport car, and mainly for internal troops.
The commander of a motorized rifle regiment is in battle in the KShM on the basis of an armored personnel carrier or an infantry fighting vehicle, the commander of a tank is similar or in a commander’s tank. No one cuts across the field in the UAZ, although it is put in staff, there are BRDM for scouts, SO

In the comments I read: "The customer is always right, because he pays."
As a professional salesman, I want to correct: a stupid customer is always right. In fact, it is very difficult to select what really corresponds to the TOR and most often it is not present in the pure form on the market. Collaboration between the customer and the supplier is needed to refine the closest product. This product is needed by the customer, and the supplier does not care, because there are no guarantees for concluding a contract - and therefore there are no costs for completion. So there is mutual dependence.

Or the armored personnel carrier will be redone in the truck : for your money, any whim (it says my friend).
This is in the military-industrial complex, should not be in principle.
On the Volga, many of these bridges over the past 2 years have divorced.
