What are they waiting for, Our gernails scream we do modernisation, we’ll do anti drone stuff, we are becoming modern and sheeit. The amount of delay in procurement is enough to make me lose hope in our incompetent forces and it’s jhaantu leadership, BJPee is a snake using our soldiers just for elections, what does BJPee think that Balakot 2 years ago will make sure no fidayeen attacks will happen? If Modi had seriously respected our forces then a few weeks later of balakot fiasco our 15 C-60 Commandos were martyred in IED attacks by Naxals, and a few weeks ago again in Chhattisgarh we lost 23 of ours, no surgical strike drama now? Vote nahi milenge naaaa. Truck mounted artillery is being delayed, special forces modernisation delayed, FRCV delayed and invited are foreign bidders, FICV delayed despite having it ready to manufacture, small arms procurement delayed (the basic thing that makes army an army), IAF squadrons are dwindling, Indian Navy has budget issues cutting 4 helicopter carriers to only 2. We can’t think of 3rd aircraft carrier due to SSN project, even though today I shared that a service vice admiral of Indian navy says that 3 CBGs are not enough to protect IOR. Our AEW&CS and Aerial Tanker procurement is delayed. How the fuck do they lie so much of doing so much modernisation, 5 largest economy and 4th strongest military my foot, can’t even provide basic gen 3+ monocular nods leave binods when the world is shifting towards quad nods. Our soldiers still use that 70s era helmets 🪖 and all of them don’t have BPJs, our Small arms don’t have optics or even grips or modern or future warfare tactics, wtf happened to F-INSAS, hawa nikal gayi? Could have easily bought TAR instead of AK-203 which is a corrupt deal, but nahi kuchh haramzado ko kickbacks chahiye, carbine deal was scrapped by Modi to promote his aatmanirbhar jumla during hightened nationalistic environment and made in India carbines were to be bought, kya hua? An RFI issued again for global vendors, this L1 is the reason why we end up with substandard equipment or delays, just because a “short stroke AR was expensive than DI AR” so they cancelled CAR-826 and moved on, now new RFI, new trials, new orders, thiscycle goes on and on and on, the carbines which would have been delivered by now would now be Seen not before by 2026, mark my words. Yesterday RFI for FICV was released even though you have kestrel which is what our FICV was, now they will compare it with foreign maal, if phoren maal good, then fvck of Kestrel and welcome gora sahib’s products, this is how aatmanirbhar works. There are so many defence companies who rely on exports because domestic demand is just for aatmanirbhar jumla eyewash for public. 21 MiG-29s and 12 Su-30MKI were to be bought in 2019, what happened? Sab ke sab chutiye hai MoD me.
