"The Indian armed forces made a decision to increase the purchase of T-90S tanks, which they are already producing under a license agreement," Shugayev stated.
"Last year, we signed an additional license agreement to extend the previous license deal until 2028, for 400 more tanks," he added.
The T-90S Bhishma is the main battle tank for the Indian Army. According to the Military Balance 2019 handbook published by the London-based International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS), over 1,025 T-90S tanks are operational in the Indian Army at present.
