Indian Army T-72 tanks now have night vision

[Capt.Popeye]

Sorry for bringing up an old thread but I was searching for something related to converting old tanks into howitzers.

Can I get a picture of that tank converted into a howitzer?

Anybody?

Hi
Let me give you a link:
130mm Catapult M-46 SPH [www.bharat-rakshak.com]
This is a picture of the Vijayanta Tank converted to a SPGH. Now it is being retired and progressively replaced by a conversion of the Arjun MBT Hull with the add-on of a M-46 Howitzer.
Here is a link to a picture of that:

However, even this is an interim arrangement; since there is an ongoing Competition for a new SPGH, in two versions- tracked and wheeled based on a 155 MM Howitzer.

Time has come to replace T72 and instead we are upgrading them.... It is akin to giving a old man specs to see at night !!

Show me the money. India has 2000 T-72s. A new T-90 costs Rs 25 crores. So, 2000 x 25 = Rs 50,000 crores.

And that ain't peanuts by any stretch of imagination!

There are 1500 T-72s in the active list, of which 1100 have had the retro-fits carried out including fitment of ERA.

This "Catapult" is in fact a self propelled howitzer or a SPGH.
Does that answer your question?

The M-46 catapult is a 130mm Self Propelled Howitzer itself
