India is interested in continuing the licensed production of Russian T-90C tanks. This came in a statement by Chief Executive of the Russian-Indian tank contract, General Director of "Uralvagonzavod" scientific industrial corporation Oleg Siyenko at the IDEX-2013 arms fair. On Monday, a Russian T-90C tank participated in a dynamic demonstration of technical equipment at the exhibition in Abu-Dhabi, and earned a lot of praise from experts.
On the basis of total
characteristics, today the T-90C tank is the best tank on the
international market. According to Siyenko, "there are hundreds of
already manufactured tanks". This tank is produced on the base of the
Russian license at a tank factory in the city of Avadi, in the state of
Tamil Nadu. Today, the T-90C tank is the main striking force of the
Indian army. India is interested in transition from the currently
existing large-unit assembly to complete localization of production and
subsequent modernization of the previously jointly manufactured
machines. According to estimations of experts, in 2014-2019, India can
additionally purchase about 600 new, modernized T-90C tanks and start
their complete licensed production on the spot.
Today,
India sticks to the same pattern at other enterprises producing various
military equipment under Russian licenses. Indian Corporation
"Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd" produces one of the world's best fighters
Su-30 MKI under the Russian license. Today, together with India we
manufacture a prospective fifth generation fighter - FGFA (Fifth
Generation Fighter Aircraft). It is for several years now that the
Russian-Indian BrahMos joint venture, named in honor of the Russian
Moscow River and the Indian Brahmaputra, produces the fastest BrahMos
cruise missiles.
Meanwhile, Russian designers are
working at a new tank of the fifth generation. It requires radically
different engineering and technical solutions, editor-in-chief of the
National Defense magazine Igor Korotchenko says.
“This
tank will be controlled remotely. This project will be the first step
on the way to a fully «unmanned» weapon, to so-called combat robots,
about which science fiction authors wrote last century”.
And who knows, maybe, this tank can also be created by a joint effort of Russian and Indian gunsmiths.
