There was a tender recently for 3 wheelers . Army procures even bikes . These are nt for combat uses . May be for uses in civilian spherers .
The Army has been using cycles and motorcycles for ages, nothing new about that.
But i don't see any practical application of Auto Rickshaws in the military for any purpose.
The closest 3-wheeler that I can think of that has any practical application is Polaris type ATV's, otherwise, these Rickshaws are coffin boxes on wheels with almost 0 safety and with a high centre of gravity, these are highly unstable vehicles and should be removed even from taxi service.

At last a decent optic has been mounted on the ASMI, looks like an Aimpoint Comp M4 or M2 if I’m not mistaken. This time by Lokesh Machine Tools who have won the tender to produce this firearm from ARDE. As per them they have received interest/enquiries from 8 countries from CIS and Africa.
Easy to eliminate Russia and Azerbaijan from this list of CIS nations to get a better idea who might be interested.

So VL-SRSAM wings don't fold in the VLS? Guess we can't really expect it to be quad packed in the larger universal VLS being developed for NGD then? @Fatalis ?
Sir ji, if you go through the below image which was released sometimes back, you can see the folded wings of the missile.

So, I can say our hope is still alive.

R&D for an ejection seat should have started a decade back.

Could it be that the recent Tejas sale possible being hindered in Argentina because of the Martin Baker seats is why HAL is now talking about developing it? Basically "aag lagi toh kuan khodo"...:dude:


And I recall a certain poster making fun of me for suggesting that kind of route.
