Abhay IFV
Abhay (Sanskrit: अभय, ''"Fearless"'') is an Infantry Combat Vehicle (ICV) being developed in India by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO). Abhay is being developed as a technology demonstrator for replacing Indian Army BMP-2s. At present, various systems of this vehicle are in advanced stages of development.〔pp 14, (2004 Activity and Assessment Report ) of the Ministry of Defence (India) (DOC)〕 On 18 November 2013 India conveyed to Russia that they will not shelve their homegrown $10 billion Futuristic Infantry Combat Vehicle (FICV) programme in favour of Russian BMP-3 combat vehicles during the meeting of the India-Russia Inter-Governmental Commission on Military Technical Cooperation held in Moscow. 〔India Rejects BMP-3 Offer, Will Maintain FICV Program,()〕 == Project == Abhay serves as a pre-technology demonstrator to develop and test technologies that will be used on a futuristic ICV (FICV), which will replace the Indian Army's BMP-2 vehicles.〔(Ministry of Defence Annual Appraisal 2003 ), PIB, Government of India, February 3, 2004〕 The project started in the late 1990s, and design work was completed by 2001.〔(Army to have Infantry Combat Vehicle ), UNI Report, ''The Tribune'', August 5, 2001〕 However, the project faced delays due to US sanctions imposed after the Pokhran-II Nuclear tests. Abhay is being developed by the DRDO’s Ahmednagar-based Vehicles Research & Development Establishment (VRDE). A Mild Steel (MS) prototype of the Abhay has been built, and is being tested for proving automotive systems. The pre-production prototype was rolled out in June 2005. Development of the first armoured prototype is also in progress.
