Metal cutting started for the Advanced Armoured Platforms (AAP)-Wheeled & Tracked

The AAP is a next-generation armored vehicle initiative by DRDO aimed at creating versatile, modern platforms for the Indian armed forces. The project includes both wheeled and tracked variants, designed to serve multiple roles such as infantry combat vehicles, armored personnel carriers, and specialized platforms (e.g., command posts, ambulances, or mortar carriers). Key Details: **Development**: The project is led by DRDO’s Vehicles Research and Development Establishment (VRDE), with collaboration from Indian private sector companies like Tata and Bharat Forge. **Timeline**: The metal cutting ceremony for the AAP prototypes took place on April 2, 2025, in Pune, with a planned rollout of the first prototype by October 2025. **Specifications**: The wheeled variant is based on an 8x8 chassis, weighing around 24 tons, and is designed to be fully amphibious. It features advanced thermal and optical sights, a fire control system, and a crewless turret armed with a 30mm cannon. The platform includes run-flat tire inserts for enhanced mobility and survivability. The tracked variant is also part of the program, though specific details are less publicized at this stage. **Name**: Posts on X indicate that the AAP (Tracked & Wheeled) may be named "Vikram VT-21," though this has not been officially confirmed in all sources. **Innovations**: The Composites Research Center is reportedly developing a composite hull using materials like Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic (GFRP) and Carbon Fiber Reinforced composites, aiming to reduce weight while maintaining strength. This initiative reflects India’s push toward self-reliance in defense manufacturing, leveraging both public and private sector expertise. If you meant something specific by "Dodo" in relation to this project, please clarify, and I’ll do my best to assist further! =================================================== WHOMSOEVER IT MAY CONCERN Most of the pictures clip or BGM included in the Video Belongs to their Respected Owners and we do not claim rights...but under this,👇 we are using them 🙏 =================================================== DISCLAIMER: UNDER SECTION 107 OF THE COPYRIGHT ACT 1976, ALLOWANCE IS MADE FOR "FAIR USE" FOR PURPOSES SUCH AS CRITICISM, COMMENT, NEWS REPORTING, TEACHING, SCHOLARSHIP, AND RESEARCH.
