The Army is looking to upgrade the T-90 main battle tank to enhance firepower and mobility. They are going to be equipped with a new missile system and a new more powerful modular engine.
“As the design of the existing INVAR missile has been maximised, both in terms of range and Depth of Penetration (DoP), it is imperative to upgrade it to next-generation missiles with enhanced capability,” according to PTI. The third-generation missile should achieve a DoP of 800-850 mm and be capable of hitting targets up to a range of 8 km against mobile as well as static targets.
