Vijayanta

The Vijayanta was India's first indigenous main battle tank, developed in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Built using British designs and components, it was designed to provide robust armored firepower and protection on the battlefield. The tank featured a powerful gun, thick armor, and advanced targeting systems for its time. It was used by the Indian Army for several decades, marking a significant step in India's self-reliance in military technology. While now retired, Vijayanta played a key role in modernizing the Indian armored forces and laid the foundation for future indigenous tank development.
