Only when IA saw Chinese light tanks they realized, they also need light thanks. If this is the case with Indian military then get ready for more surprises from china.

Considering India's shambles military industry, represented by the Arjun tank and Tejas fighter jet, there is a high possibility that this light tank project will also fail. The only cases in which India's military industry has been exceptionally successful are the BrahMos missile, which received technical support from Russia, and the K9 self howitzer, which was produced in India with technical support from S.Korea.
@AndrewRoberts11 3 күн бұрын
This is another Korean K9 Thunder derivative, with the standard 155mm turret replaced by the light MODULAR Cockerill 3105, that's manufactured in Belgium, and that you can bolt a thousand and one options to, per a politicians / senior officers, or their wife, kids, mistress's whim, with little more than a toolkit. The hull and several engine options were accepted by the IA, along with the armies of Korea, Egypt, Turkey, Poland, Finland, Norway, ... decades back. The cannon is a NATO L7 variant, the Chinese Type 15 also adopted, there's assorted ammo types available for these cannon, from numerous sources. Leaves only the colour, local workmanship, and price, as obvious grounds to reject the mod.
