Earlier it was to be handed over to the indian army by the end of 2023 for user trials, but a move by the Chinese army changed the plan. In fact, the Chinese army has deployed its Type-15 Black Panther light tank on the LAC. This tank weighing about 33 tonnes can be airlifted and taken anywhere. After this deployment, China's capability has increased there. In response, india has also deployed some units of its Russian-made T-72 and T-90 tanks on the LAC, but they are very heavy with a weight of about 45 to 70 tonnes. Due to this, they cannot be operated easily on the inaccessible heights of the Himalayas.For this reason, the program to develop the Zorawar tank has been 'fast-tracked' to strengthen the indian Army.
