I found that Russian T-90s, procured a few years ago, faced problems while operating at high temperatures in the desert, affecting the tanks’ electronics, fire control system and thermal imagers.<br /><br />For Arjun, as far as I know, only engine failure.

If they will worry about other will know their product secrets then nothing will sell. Selling a product to one country increases the interest of other countries. Their are lots of products which various western countries are not able to sell to their own military but is sold to other countries across the world. so DRDO should see this as an brilliant oppernunity to sell and use money for further research in the product. The marketing team should immediately come in action.raj newhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10152158416368759043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050542.post-51455917069759385392009-07-05T16:00:05.851+05:302009-07-05T16:00:05.851+05:30Israel has close relations with Columbia.

Also apart from Hyundai we also manufacture German cars(BMW and Benz).

And if they really "need" an MBT, why Arjun?<br /><br />What is wrong with T80, or Leopard 2E? When you get down to it, there won't be any cost savings with Arjun since the others have better support infrastructure, higher volume of parts and are thus cheaper in long run. DRDO can barely support Arjun's in India, the quality of support half way around the world can be well imagined.<br /><br />So what is the 'logic'?<br /><br />Methinks the Colombians are "using" Arjun to get good prices from other vendors.<br /></i> <br />sales guys comming out of closet, trying to push their companies product to INDIA's would be clients. <br /> I would just like to know where he got his so called facts about the support structure of Arjun tanks with respect to Indian Army?<br /><br />-RajAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050542.post-29634968739877067802009-06-29T23:14:05.894+05:302009-06-29T23:14:05.894+05:30Me thinks that the Dhruv has made quite an impress...Me thinks that the Dhruv has made quite an impression in Latin America in that Indian equipments are looked upon as high quality stuff.
