India's Future Battle Tank: Arjun Mk-1 Alpha

The Defence Acquisition Committee of the Defence Ministry today granted an 'Acceptance of Necessity', paving the way for the Army to acquire 118 Arjun Mk-1A tanks in a deal worth Rs. 8,400 crore. The final step before an order is placed is a meeting of the Cabinet Committee of Security which is yet to be scheduled. When it does enter service within three years of a contract being signed, the Arjun Mk-1A will easily be one of the most advanced Main Battle tanks in the world, based on a series of features that its designers believe give it an edge over anything operated by the Pakistani Army.
