Exactly no modern tank can withstand ATGM hits and expensive APS can not be installed fleetwise. What we are witnessing in Ukraine is platform itself is not at fault. issue is with tactics , situational awareness and the "will" to fight of the attacking force. India have invested exactly on Vetronics replacing Russian with Indian , western Israeli where ever possible. It's another case Arjun getting stepmotherly treatment .Jay wrote:Oh good. we only have been sitting on our behind for 2 decades now, another 3 or 5 years would be nothing. We will bullshit about Weight of Arjun and how awesome T90's are while sipping Vodka and endlessly doing these Summer, Winter, Monsoon trials. Its absolutely depressing how incompetent out armor procurement, planning, and deployment is. God help us if there is a conflict and Pakis get a hand on these Javelins, NLAWS or similar armament.
Example , hepter shot down , here tactics might be all ok but sensors like DIRCM would have saved many. See here the platform is robust but lacking sensors which can be retrofitted. Indian T90 have Thales TI , drdo/ bel FCS , commaders TI etc. If you compare orginal Russian thermal imaging sights , our sights are significantly better.
