Indian Army to Upgrade T-90 MkIII Tanks with Advanced ATGMs

The Indian Army is set to enhance its T-90 MkIII Main Battle Tanks by integrating advanced Anti-Tank Guided Missiles (ATGMs), inspired by indigenous innovations like the Zorawar light tank. This modernization aims to increase the tanks’ lethality, especially against China’s modern armored threats, by enabling precision strikes from 4-10 km, addressing the current limitations of the T-90’s 125mm gun. The integration may involve canister launchers or modifications for missiles like the Nag MkII, bolstering the T-90’s role as a multi-role platform in diverse terrains, essential for maintaining India’s strategic edge along the Line of Actual Control.
