Russia In Discussion With India On T-90MS Battle Tanks Supply

Russia is in talks with India to supply the latest Russian T-90MS battle tanks.

Even though the tank uses the same type of ammunition as the T-90, it includes additional countermeasures to significantly reduce the chances of being hit by enemy anti-tank semi-automatic guided weapons.

"Negotiations are under way on the possibility of signing a new contract with new conditions, to supply India with T-90MS," a representative of Uralvagonzavod (UVZ) machine building company told Friday to RIA Novosti.

The contract has been in place between both the nations for the licensed production of T-90S tanks in India. "Russia had completed the full cycle of testing on the T-90MS, which is the latest export version of the T-90", a Uralvagonzavod spokesperson said Wednesday.

T-90MS, also referred as Tagil, was first unveiled in 2011. It was proposed for the Russian Army and possible export markets, including India.
