Jai Ho ! We shall fight with what we have, its the man behind the rifle that matters, and so on....

IA top brass should be fired

There was a rash of articles talking about SiG's not performing well and having problems. I think they have fallen out of favour with IA and the 2nd batch was never ordered. It's back to AK203 now. If you observe closely the armasen helmet cover camo is different marpat than the IA camo. IA has...

So now AK203 is cutting edge ? Fully expect a cringe worthy Army Day video next year showcasing AK203 induction as a great achievement (may be it indeed is for this army) by the IA. सर्वदा सर्वत्र सबसे पीछे

Note the high vis 'V' shape patch reflector on IA soldier, 'shoot me, I am here' patch ? :frusty:

It pays to be cynical when it comes to alleged improvements/inductions/changes in our defence forces. The word 'soon' is so bandied about in media regarding defence acquisitions, that I have now developed a vitriolic hatred to that word ! Optimism is the surest way to depression when it comes to...

Why is IA asking for NATO round compatibility ? Are we a NATO country ?

Haha clutching at straws are we ? The fact that they are allegedly being issued that ww2 junk 'carbine' when better stuff like JVPC is available is in itself a huge travesty. I have given up hope on our top gernails ever taking modernization and standardisation seriously ! Sad sad sad. At this...

Gareeb log who keep returning unspent funds to MoD each year ! In all fairness the second tranche of SiG deal was most probably shelved by Babu's in MoD to pursue so called military diplomacy to please ruskie masters and Chandigarh lobby. Hence I keep reiterating IA should stop issuing...

Its not imported maal

How many of these were ordered ? 10? 15 ? I don't consider it to be 'in service' till atleast 50k have been ordered. Doubt it, IA is perfectly fine returning unspent money but won't order from domestic manufacturers. I mean for an army the size of atleast 4L serving personnel, should have...

Gawd ! What a fugly abomination ! In which age are OhEffingBastards still living ? 50's ?

But how does this apply to us ? Since ours is indeed a capable and large military thus requiring a well equipped SF

Ok. How does Philippines being excited about brahmos justify lack of proper equipment for our SF ? Please explain ..

Copying blindly and ripping off western designs - I am all A OK with this as long as they match the quality and ruggedness and provide our soldiers with superior equipment and saves lives. But then GoI must be ready to step in and defend the Pvt company once a lawsuit gets filed by the western...

Aaah ! Finally good to see it with optics, esp with a locally manufactured one ! I hope this is standardized across all the SiGs that are rolled out.

Why the F should armed forces celebrate Gandhi Jayanti ! When gandy & chacha were so interested in showing the other chin and disbanding IA :facepalm:

Yes - if contract is given to pvt industry. No - if contract is given to Oh Effing B :frusty:

no optics ? no tonbo ? :facepalm: :frusty:

I honestly hope that the “essential weapons” clause will not be misused!
