I cant find an image of the OFB wheeled ICV, but it is so fucking bad that you'd rather not see it. It's basically a BMP with truck grade wheels. Something Syrian rebels would make.



middle tire looks like it doesnt have enough air
Good God ! What's that monstrosity?

armour doesn't look moduler at all --- to much chutiyagiri by OFB --- DRDO should improve the vechile ASAP ---- these jokers need to rope in people with sense of aesthetics + knowledge on subject matter of what they are designing in first place.

I think it's old farts with no sense of aesthetics who calls the shots for promotion ---- why not build few schools, colleges & institutions specialised in just design of military vechiles on par with other countries .
You are right, the guys are indeed old farts. A friend of mine works in one of them and according to him, those old gandoos just won't accept any idea coming from a new and young guy. All they say is that " the system is working just fine".

OFB's 'skull' is so thick that any criticism just bounces off. The only thing that has sustained them is a monopoly. Once it's gone, OFB is gonna go full BSNL or Hindustan Motors or *insert a PSU name here*

M8, OFB has been "manufacturing" armored vehicles since forever yet it can't design a good ICV on its own. Its system isn't rigged for innovation. Taking an existing system and modifying it isn't innovation. It's imitation.
OFB is only good for chai, biskoot and fat pensions. Real work is done by contractors (Indian and foreign) and they don't work for free.
