yes your memory is correct, but IIRC it only reduces few steps not removes all together. I remember having this discussion on new DPP with @Chinmoy , was it for ATAGS or for WHAP.. dont remember it. But we know RFI for 155/52 towed was given in dec 2022.. Its 2024 and Next stage RFP has still not been released yet. Dilli dur ast...

during modi initial years, same kind of buzz in Indian media about RQ-11 raven under DTTI. there will be articles going gaga over this from that period.. 8 years later, Indian industry can come up with any kind of drone. a few years ago, there were a flurry of articles about murican winter clothing during galwan, that winter clothing was part of DTTI, hence the articles and mentions in think tank discussions.

fanboys instigated by media and social media went into the usual meltdown mode when the news about winter clothing came out, the usual self-flagellation.

this is why i find it amusing when fanboys get bothered about little things, but there is limit to number of times i can repeat myself saying "don't get caught up in short term cycles, longer you watch this space, more clarity you will get".

at that time we were asking for MQ-1 predator, they were offering RQ-11,
today we are asking for GE414, they are offering stryker.

just the way muricans do business, for them everything is about leverage.

by the way, US NSA jake sullivan is in town. the process i mentioned in previous post comes under his supervision.

But one thing I don't understand is why striker specifically? Aren't they gonna get more leverage or whatever if they go for more important programs like Light Tank or etc if they want to allegedly undermine Aatmanirbhar?

How can this entity make arty shells cases?
Just pray those shells are not hand crafted and hand polished ones to imperfection.

The entity who would be making these shell cases also does


Manufacturing of structures, sub-assemblies, and assemblies of mobile weapon launchers for programs such as BrahMos Missile, MRSAM, and Pinaka rocket launcher.

Manufacturing of Structural and Engineering systems for Naval applications.

Manufacturing of electrical and electronic box assemblies, such as console panel

Is it IDDM or Chinese 🪛🪛🪛?

All are indigenous design. There could be assembly parts imported from elsewhere, but design is inhouse.

Saaw will soon undergo another round of trials. Most probably user trials of the EO variant.

Is it IDDM or Chinese 🪛🪛🪛?

The round dome they use M9N gps module, I highly doubt it's military grade, it can be be subjected to GPS spoofing or jamming environment, or I can be wrong they can get LS2003c classs one on just fibreglass random, design look like 3d PLA, inside components may be China made, only software and fight control algorithms may be inhouse,

Ps: considering other Indian scam artists, they guys atleast put efforts and they have turn to Chinese suppliers because of lack of parts

 

[Chinmoy]

How many steps away from the order ?

After RFP, negotiations would be done. After that order would be placed.

Remove FET and GSE from here in this case.

 

[Chinmoy]

Any reasons why so much push on striker like it's not even that big deal. They are doing too much efforts wrt to worth of deal.
We haven't seen such efforts put by usa except during patriot,s400 thing.

I had seen some YouTube expaaarts Claiming usa want a commited spare supply for its future conflicts in ASEAN/china.

Which seems illogical to me but apart from this I haven't seen any other explanation for this.

It seems more then IA and MoD, our media is interested in procuring all variants of Stryker.
