Overview
A weapon platform that leaves the soldier behind.
Arjun Type 1 pairs a heavy all-weather chassis with a pedestal-mounted remote weapon station, a multi-sensor camera and a long-range antenna mast. Operators observe and engage from a safe distance.
The same vehicle can be tasked for logistics, evacuation or communication relay. Higher indigenous content gives a lower total cost than comparable imports.
