Super team Arjun.... Hope we induct then in large numbers to support our manufacturing sector.

I don't care for patriotism. I'm Punjabi.
But your bs is amusing. Its not making sense to me. I have no idea what your trying to say as far as tanks, but I assume your too young to know assemblies. The Kits for the T-90s were bought earlier. Were ever economical. Doesn't mean India is producing junk. For gods sake, they didn't want shotra system.
As far your Fuksima bs,
Look up Toshiba. Its heavy water reactos etc. Japan, and its companies have a monoply on reactors. Welcome to the world of globalization.

you seem to have no clue what he is saying.

in simple words, india does not manufacture the whole of t-90, rather from parts supplied by russia. this means that the russians have withheld key technologies of t-90 that india cannot manufacture by itsef, this includes turret, armour modules and inserts and even ammo which is a sad truth.

now, since the HULL and TURRET come prefabricated from russia with armour inserts already fitted within them, how on earth did india remove them to put their kanchan armour inserts? Keep in mind that the hull and turret are not made out of ordinary steel or rolled homogeneous modules.

lol, like you know hwat your talking about?
Russia has NO reason to with hold any technology. This is economics. What is cheaper to manufacture in India. At the end of the day, India can produce T-90s since they already produce or had localized production of the T-72 series to 80%. The HULL and Turret are NOT pre fabricated, not an more. Your obviously full of BS since you don't understand the economics of cost reduction. Why the hell would the steal be bought from Russia? The metal, would be the first thing to be supplied from India. I don't care what you think, because i've seen avadi in production. Steal is Indian and so is the mojority of the tank. That being said, auto loader and other systems are 3rd party vendors.
You seriously think this is freakin sandwich they're making?
Dazaller, your the last person, whos opinon I care for.

Iran has guts to refuse T90s for a indigenous tank,

While we are still in dilemma to chose between T90M & Armata .

If arjun is heavy , what are we waiting for ..to develop one in light category ?

T-90 production line would be expensive. Building on their own design with new machines would be a more realistic solution. AFAIK, the FCS and electronics would be cheaper to buy abroad.

India`s own effort to upgrade existing T-90S

User-trials of a T-90S MBT equipped with IRDE-developed and BEL-built commander’s panoramic sight and driver’s uncooled thermal imager (derived from that developed for the Arjun Mk1A MBT) have just gotten underway. If all goes well, then these two items will be retrofitted on to both the first 310 T-90S MBTs acquired for the Indian Army just about a decade ago, as well as on 1,000 T-72M1 MBTs that are due to undergo a deep upgrade. For both MBT-types, VRDE has already developed the APU, which too is now undergoing user-trials.

---------------

The CVRDE-upgraded prototype of the T-90S has done away with the T01-K04 and substitutes it with the IRDE-developed and BEL-built commander’s panoramic sight (which houses a SAGEM-built MATIS-STD thermal imager operating in the 3-5 micron bandwidth), which has resulted in enhanced static visibility levels for both the gunner and commander.

-------------

In addition, the IV528-2 digital ballistics computer has given way to an indigenous solution developed by TATA Power Strategic Electronics Division, while the IRDE-developed driver’s uncooled thermal imaging night sight has replaced the TVN-5 night-vision device.

------------

Furthermore, a DEAL-developed MMW-based IFF system has been installed for enhancing the MBT crew’s situational awareness.

-----------

Lastly, the T-90S’ track-wraps have been indigenised by AMW-MGM Forgings Pvt Ltd, which has also developed tracks with metal/rubber-brushed parallel pin-jointed gearings, stamped track-links adapted to accept rubber pads, with steel needles on the track-pins providing conductivity and picking up static electricity from rubber-brushed pin-jointed gearings during movement

Long time back Russian refused to provide TOT of the barrel , so the T-90 production effected , but that to now provided by Russians.

Get your facts right. Your knowledge is still stuck in 1999.

Two OFB factories in Kanpur build the gun and breach block.
Another in Jabalpur builds the recoil system,
while another one in Tiruchiralapplli fabricates the 12.7 millimetre air defence gun.
The sophisticated thermal imaging sights and gunner’s sights come from OFB’s Opto-Electronics Factory in Dehradun. The gun stabilizer, which allows the tank to fire accurately while moving, comes from Bharat Electronics Ltd.

Within Avadi, HVF builds major components of the T-90S: the hull, turret, transmission, gearbox and the running gear. Another OFB facility next door, Engine Factory, Avadi, builds the tank’s 1000 HP engine. Thousands of minor parts are outsourced to local industry: electrical items, cables, starter generator, instrument panel, hardware and rubber components. it is 80-90% local made components.
