Army dithers over futuristic tank, DRDO pursues engine

A FEW QUESTIONS -

1. What's Active ERA?

2. What is the purpose of the High Energy Laser - is this for the Active Protection System or an offensive weapon on its own?

3. We are still going ahead with a Rifled Gun? So this means "Karan" won't be able to fire missiles through the barrel?

4. What's the source - actual specs or wishful thinking?

And I think they should change the name from "Karan" to "Karn". Karan sounds like a 10 year old Delhi kid.
