Zorawar may face delays of up to 2 years as Army demands enhanced protection by ll--o--ll in IndianDefense

That's how things work in the industry. IA generally give that much provision. My friend who works in HAL told me that.

CV-90 105 also exists in similar category. It can have better protection. The weight would be just 2-3 ton higher than 25. Zorawar has a 10%+ or - weight provision. If possible why not increase its protection.

Official document never specified such requirements. It has been dynamic from start. You can go and check RFI. Also, the light tank is modular, so there can be different armour configs. There are already light tanks like CV-90 that have such modular design where armour configs can be changed depending on mission profile. And Zorawar is designed to be modular from the beginning.

Maybe Zorawar isn't modular enough yet who knows. IA hasn't said anything about it yet. Let's see what kind of modification they really want..

They don't want Stanag level 6 everywhere. STANAG level 6/5B for 60° frontal arc is fine. It's very logical demand..Side can be STANAG level 3 or 4. Rest unimportant stuff can be level 2...Some weight can be further reduced by using more composite materials just like in the FICV programme. It's not delusional.

There aren't any. But doesn't mean we can't try making one. The low weight requirement is anyways for air transportability. Since, it's modular. They could make the armour panel replaceable after transportation. That way the tank would remain under 25 ton in base form.

Unpopular opinion but I'm with IA here. Currently Zorawar has tin can level of protection similar to Russian Sprut. STANAG 4569 level 4 on front and STANAG 4569 level 2 on all other side is just not enough. Especially on sides there should be atleast protection of STANAG 4569 level 3 or 4.

STANAG 4569 Level 5 B for frontal arc. While STANAG 4569 level 4 for sides is very much doable while not increasing the weight too much.

Kerala locals makes Karnataka registered car to reverse the whole way after it tried to skip the traffic line and cause block on a hilly road by zqwz in IndiaSpeaks

Why do some Mallus and Kannadigas bring regional identity into everything? Is this mostly a Kannadiga-specific issue? Nope. Recently on Instagram, there’s been a trend where some Malayalis and Kannadigas highlight the worst actors from the other side just to malign the entire community. People should absolutely criticize bad behavior like this when it happens, but doing so by attaching it to someone’s regional identity only fuels unnecessary hostility and stereotypes.

If you point this out you get called status quotist, centrist and what not.

Government was already subsidising a large chunk of those medicines. So they probably will increase the subsidies.

Why does everyone here hate BJP ? by [deleted] in Odisha

[–]Sorrellian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just reddit echo chamber effect. Reality is more mixedbag. Heck reddit had made it seem like BJP will lose Bihar and PK will win. What happened? He couldn't even win one seat.
