The Combat Vehicle Research and Development Establishment (CVRDE) released an Expression of Interest (EoI) calling for technology assistance to develop, demonstrate, and supply the Light Munition (LM) capability of housing and launching from a Canister-based Light Tank.
The EoI issued by CVRDE specifically targets Indian private-sector companies with expertise in Canister-based Light Munition systems. The solicitation aims to harness the innovative potential of domestic industries to advance the development of a Light Tank equipped with cutting-edge technology.
The Light Tank that is under trial will be a critical component of Indian Army military operations in high altitudes near LOC against China, Light Tank will offer enhanced mobility and firepower in high altitude operational environments
At the heart of the EoI is the concept of technology transfer, wherein private-sector companies with proven capabilities in Canister-based Light Munition systems are invited to collaborate with CVRDE in developing the Light Tank. This collaborative approach not only facilitates knowledge sharing but also promotes synergy between government agencies and the private sector in advancing defence technology.
The integration of Loitering Munition with the Light Tank promises a significant boost in firepower and battlefield versatility. This represents a major step forward for Indian Armoured vehicle capabilities.
