Don,
This by way of a status report.
First to
INDIA: I see you had already entered the
ARJUN MK 1-A, along with that tank there'll be changes to the
ARJUN in general. Nothing major overall but I'll be looking to get the
ARJUN itself removed as this is more and more appearing to have been named
ONLY for the
test bed units. So the
ARJUN Mk-1 is looking to be the
first operational type, which had 14 improvements made to it based on the OPEVALs before going into production..
Also, and I've brought this up several times over the years, but with newer information in doing the build for the
ARJUN Mk-1A (And yes I see you already added it.) it looks like
LAHAT is dead.
The reasons are two fold 1) We knew it was plagued by technical difficulties for years and 2) It doesn't fit India's tactical operational needs. Simply this is due to the fact LAHAT is designed as a long range engagement weapon which doesn't "
turn on" until it's further down range, where Israel wants it to operate. Anything closer it'll let the
MG deal with it.
India wants a
ATGW it'll engage targets at a closer range if need be, this is a
preference versus a need. Their
MG is
very close to being as good as the
CHALLENGER 2 MG.
They are
currently testing an ATGW to meet their needs.
USA - Still sorting through the
ABRAMS posts, there just was so many pages of data, a couple "
back and forth" posts as I flushed newer information (
USMC FEP as an example.) etc. etc.
FRANCE - I see you fixed the
MMP ATGW that had the
0 Vis. to
60 TI/GSR. That was what I had as well.
RUSSIA - Have some
date changes concerning the
T-80BV Series of tanks. Already researched.
But to give you something to do

K2 PIP is the "
Top Dog" in the K2 Series of tanks.
