No country would provide ToT under conditions laid down by Indian Army IMO

We cant say anything on that and the order is for up to 1770 tanks.this is one mega size deal for any company.and this time DRDO has the RFI to exactly design the tank.

With Sino-India border issue likely to be guarded more intensely by both the sides, any support to make the lives of the soldiers safer and conducive shall go a long way in their motivation and operational efficiency.
The exoskeletons are rapidly emerging as part of the modern troops body gadget and Armed Forces may be keenly looking forward to the culmination of this project, far sooner than many others still within the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) Lab environment.

I AM HOPING THAT IT IS NOT MADE OF MOTOR BUT INSTEAD OF ARTIFICIAL MUSCLES
EG. CARBON FIBER MUSCLE

Dumb asses at financial express are legitimising chini propaganda, there was no proof that PLA used an working equipment of exoskeleton in Ladakh ops. what chini wore did not even look like a exoskeleton.

IS IT READY???

IS IT READY???

IIT Madras just proposed the Project in Defexpo 2020. The proposal was based on some computational models done in their Aerospace department. I beleive Lt. Gen. P.R.Shankar (Retd.) who is a faculty in that Department, is also part of the project.
Later DRDO and IIT Kanpur have joined the project.
A workable prototype is still 3-4 ahead in time at minimum.

IS IT READY???

Even if it is ready, it won't make it to the production. So why bother with it? Also such presentations been presented to the MoD for years. Never seen them in action.

p.s. I am designated black pill merchant around here. You should ask such questions to much more optimistic posters.

 

[Vinod DX9]

Very important project through SP, who do you think will make the breakthrough

How does a passive exoskeleton work?

About time All the scientific institution came together to make a well functioning lithography machine.
We are going to need this

How does a passive exoskeleton work?

also wanted to know this.

found this explanation here

Passive exoskeleton to lighten the load for soldiers

Imagine if you were to carry over 100 lb (45 kg) of gear in a backpack, for several hours at a time. Well, that’s just what some soldiers have to do, and it can cause great stress to their torso and legs. That’s why engineers at the Australia’s Department of Defence have developed a new…

newatlas.com

looks like its an australian invention from 2015.

metal cables like ones used in bicycles brake lever , transfer part of weight of back pack to the ground , lightening the load.

its like placing metal rod between the backpack and ground , so person feels less weight.

My guess is obligations based on other interactions and also if they do have a product that is decent, RFI gives you some level of info to input into your RFPs

Altay is basically rip off of Korean K2 program. I highly doubt there is so much compulsion from our side to go to that idiotic state.

 

[shuvo@y2k10]

Requirement of medium tank is mentioned in the FRCV RFI.

Then why did army sent RFI to USA (M1A2 Abrams), Germany (Leo2), and Turkey (Atlay)? Isn't Arjun in the same weight class as them, and rejected on the issue of being overweight?

You trying to make sense about Indian procurement. Just sniff the guy who gives most commission.
Think about armoured procurement process, we want armata style uniformed family of vehicles.
We have Tata Kestrel now we don't know if we will procure these. We don't have an idea what will be replacing BMP 2 and T 72. We develop arjun tanks but army rejects it. Now we need new light tanks and we don't know where we are heading...

I'm still confused if someone can shed some light, I would be most grateful.
