Muntra

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Muntra is modified version BMP-2 infantry fighting vehicle (not tank) developed and now operated by the Indian Army. An equivalent description of this vehicle exists in the BMP-2 page and sufficiently covers the same information. There is limited information available on the modifications/the modifications itself are insignificant enough to warrant a separate article. Adamgerber80 (talk) 17:45, 24 August 2017 (UTC)
 * keep. Limited technical information not reason for deletion. The vehicle is new development regardless what is was based upon and is actually in operation by the army. Staszek Lem (talk) 17:54, 24 August 2017 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep - Developed off of the BMP-2, by India's DROD (not the original manufacturer) and differing significantly in details - e.g. unmanned operation. Article should be improved and expanded, not deleted, it is clearly both notable and distinct from the main BMP-2 article (where it merits a brief mention). UGVs are an emerging weapon system class (relatively few actual deployments as of yet and what is deployed - small scale), which sould should cover on-Wiki. Furthermore I'll note that it isn't clear (in current sources) if it is actually a BMP-2 variant, developed off it, or just resembling it - even if developed off BMP-2 - turning it into a UGV would be an extremely major modification.Icewhiz (talk) 09:02, 28 August 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep per Icewhiz. Distinct weapons systems typically get their own article because there is significant coverage of them and they are unique from anything that they are related to. TonyBallioni (talk) 18:02, 1 September 2017 (UTC)
