hope aKii employ main gun of 120mm then only it stand a chance among her enemy ARJUN which field 120mm rifiled gun.
125mm gun's are too weak for heavy weight tanks like Arjun,leopad,M1A1....
I want it rock n roll in Thar next year.

125mm gun means a larger caliber shell compared to a 120mm barrel can accommodate.
The power of the gun is its firing mechanism, how much higher velocity it has and off course the ammo matters too.
125mm gun can take care of its target, provided it has the punch.
sir if thats the case why all western tank like leopad,m1a1 use 120mm instead of 125mm main gun.even in desert storm M1A1 defeated direct shot of some iraqi T72(125mm) was that case of low standard ammo

In the below picture, you can see two barrels, one has been shown having grooves, this is rifled barrel, meaning there are grooves in it which give stabilization to the projectile at the time of firing by giving it a spin. If you see pistols or rifle pistols, all have lines going in them in circular motion.
While the other barrel is smooth, there are no grooves in them to give a spin to the projectile. Rather the stabilization is given to the projectiles by having stabilizing fins in the projectile which keep it at a steady direction towards the target.
Grooves inside the barrel
APFSDS:
POF made shells, both are fin stabilized projectiles.
