Are there any scale drawings out there of the T-90 model that India is using? Just browsing through some photos show that their models don't have Shtora-1 fitted to them and that area has additional Kontakt-5 armor fitted.

Hi! India is using the standard T-90 tank but mainly with the turret of the T-72B/BM this one is a cast piece and not the welded the one of the Zvezda T-90 kit. The T-90 is called BISHMA from the Indian Army. If you want to build one maybe you should combine the T-90 kit with the T-72B turret, both from Zvezda. Keep in mind that India is producing and further upgrading both the T-72M1 ALEJA and the T-90 BISHMA. So, maybe the last versions are identical to the Russian tanks

The issue is that I'd like to see if someone did drawings of the T-90 BISHMA so I can see what other detail differences are on it vs just the removal of the APS on the turret. Google is great and all, but sometimes its a bit of a blunt instrument

Hi Scott;
Other than the Shtora system, i havent seen any difference in the Indian version, if there are i havent spotted any as of yet. Im also doing a Bishma based on Zvesdas T-90 kit, and ive collected a lot of material on it.
Also i have not seen line or blue prints of a Bishma
I WILL Look and try to find any in my Library.
REGARDS; MIKE.
