This initiative aligns with the "Make in India" program, promoting local production and integration of advanced technology.

T-72 is the mainstay of tank fleet of the Indian Army which is at present fitted with 780 HP Engine. Equipping the existing fleet of T-72 Tanks with 1000 HP Engine will enhance the battle field mobility and offensive capability of Indian Army.

The new 1000 HP engines will significantly enhance the performance of the T-72 tanks in several ways. The higher horsepower will improve the tanks' speed and maneuverability on the battlefield, allowing them to respond more quickly to changing combat situations. The new engines are expected to be more reliable and efficient, reducing the likelihood of mechanical failures during critical operations.

The upgraded engines will enable the T-72 tanks to operate effectively in diverse combat scenarios, including high-altitude and rugged terrains.
