came to know @binayak95 recently had first-hand experience of firing Asmi 9mm SMG // Machine Pistol recently, he might be able to provide some pointers regd it

Recoil was nicely managed thanks to the blowback and 2kg ish weight of the gun.
It was accurate at 50 m and i fired mostly single shot with some manual bursts.

The ergos were good, gun felt nice and tight against my shoulders; felt easy to liftupand aim down the fixed sights.

Are we going to see trials of 2 competing local designs ?

 

[vin bharat mahan]

from a procurement point of view, these are some major steps we know of.

RFI -> AoN -> RFP -> CCS -> Contract Signing

each involves different groups with in armed forces itself, last two is where PM, finance ministry and MEA(if necessary) comes into picture. there is no point for FM and MEA to get involved in RFI/AoN/RFP stages, if they are involved it will only increase the time required to cross that stage.

so it can't be a single window i think.

thnx...now i understand why our weapon procurement process sucks nd why cant three services spend their capital budget. messy process.

Quite similar, but it features an uncooled seeker which makes it lighter and less expensive compared to DRDO's offering.

Since there is no dedicated South Korean thread

Apparently the engine for sky dragon is to be Korean turbofan.

All these will use homegrown South Korean engines.

A grenade attached to rotor drive might have... Actually several grenades. It's always better to have more grenades.

Had to put this one here cause many of us including myself believe china to be far superior and forget how easily the likes of us are influenced when a respectable figure tells us that something Chinese is good and tend to generalise it everywhere.
The propaganda has made me think Chinese growth speed as some force of nature that is unstoppable by any means a fortress that's impenetrable type of stuff.
Posts like these help bring clarity and balance such propaganda bs.
Not arguing against that china is strong or growing very fast in terms of military tech but rather that we are taking info by a government that uses propaganda as one of it's greatest tool at its face value which is dangerous.

With only 2 days remaining before the financial year closing, I doubt we will see any contract signing related to NGMV, FSS and NGOPV.
