Zorawar Development progress

In April 2023, the Business Standard has reported that DRDO has placed a development order with L&T to build the first prototype of its Light Tank which is seen as an answer to Chinese Type-15 tank.

DRDO is the lead development agency for the Lightweight Tank in partnership with L&T as Development cum Production Partners (DcPP). The design & development of Light Tank is being pursued under Project Zorawar.

In an exclusive interaction to Financial express, The Jayant Patil, Member of Executive Council of Management, Advisor Defence & Smart Technologies to CEO & MD of L&T has revealed a lot of information related to K-9 Vajra.

L&T has initiated the concept design of the Light Tank in 2019 and began discussing the same with DRDO. The basic design option for the Light Tank has been finalized & after multiple iterations, simulations and reviews to make the design robust, hardware production for the Prototype was initiated in June 2022.

The Prototype assembly and integration began a few months back and is currently in an advanced state. The Light Tank will be ready for internal trials in the coming couple of months.  L&T expects to conduct Technical Trials, and User Assisted Tests and Trials in plains, deserts and High-Altitude Mountainous terrains thereafter.

Having been associated with extensive trials of K-9 Vajra Tracked SPG in high-altitude mountainous terrains, L&T has gained invaluable experience and the same has been factored-in in the design of the Light Tank while the design was being evolved.  It is relevant to note that the K-9 Vajra High Altitude version adaptation was pursued suo-moto through in-house R&D efforts and offered to the User. This proactive effort was rewarded by the User by ordering the high-altitude kits, post-trials.

Knowing the well-set MoD processes, the Light Tank order should be a reality over the coming 2-3 year horizon followed by serial production.
