Many armoured vehicles are deployed from Ladakh to Sikkim.Īs the war continues, several European and North American nations are supplying anti-tank and anti-aircraft equipment such as the Carl Gustaf anti-tank rocket launchers, NLAWs and AT-4s. Earlier, these armoured vehicles were only deployed along the desert and the plain borders with Pakistan, however, they are now being deployed along India’s borders with China too. Russian armour including the T-90, T-72 and BMP-series infantry combat vehicles have been used by the Indian Army and these armoured vehicles are the mainstay of the force. Government sources told media the inputs are being analysed and the lessons would be incorporated into the design of the futuristic main battle tanks that would be produced and used by the Indian Army in coming years. The equipment that are being used there, including the Russian tanks are quite common to the Indian Army equipment.
