The Indian Army plans to upgrade its T-90 tank fleet with a new 1350 HP engine, enhancing operational capabilities amid rising demands from high-altitude warfare along the China border. This upgrade, backed by the Defence Acquisition Council’s approval of significant capital acquisitions, aims to improve the tank’s power-to-weight ratio and agility, vital for rugged terrains. While Rosboronexport may be primary supplier, DRDO is keen on an indigenous solution as well. This move underscores India’s commitment to modernizing its defense capabilities and reducing reliance on foreign technology, ensuring the T-90 remains competitive against regional adversaries.
