What has been upgraded? I am not talking about parade ground kit. Bulk of their army af and navy is a generation behind NATO.Infantry, tanks fleet upgraded, airforce upgraded, navy is getting modernised with new submarines they have modernised on all fronts. Yes there is cash crunch but sooner or later money will be back. They are sitting on circa 75trillion worth natural resources.
Asymmetric response is enough they don't and cannot match dollar for dollar, they just have to develop credible deterrence which they did. If you remove USA their army is even better than french or Germany.What has been upgraded? I am not talking about parade ground kit. Bulk of their army af and navy is a generation behind NATO.
That was my point. They are developing their asymmetrical capability to still stay relevant in a world they have little to offer. Hence the current progress of their SOFAsymmetric response is enough they don't and cannot match dollar for dollar, they just have to develop credible deterrence which they did.

You will be surprised.Which condition does an AK not work in?
But u gotta look at it with time bound and resource bound perspective.What has been upgraded? I am not talking about parade ground kit. Bulk of their army af and navy is a generation behind NATO.
Tavors and Aks both are very reliable in most conditions. Tavor can probably cope better with Rust as so much of it is made of polymer.don't they get jammed very often. i've heard tavor is more reliable than ak for this.
idk im not very well educated on this topic.
The IN literally tweeted it todayI believe it is an older picture
we did see two teams both on the east and west coast with the new gear.The IN literally tweeted it today
and what makes you think they have dramatically transformed?

That stock is hateful and someone please remove that airsoft optic from it. This might be the first Indian developed weapon to have m-lok.#Aatmanirbhar

Yea but I wish they had chosen to develop it around a larger calibreASMI
For a sub machine gun the only choices are 9mm and 5.56x30mm( without exasperating the calibre clusterfuck), but 5.56x30 will directly be in competition with the JVPC. Hence 9mm.Yea but I wish they had chosen to develop it around a larger calibre
Well the 556/30 would be closer to the 4.6/30 of the MP7 ? . Would have been more forward looking than the 9mm and could have served a more diverse mission set.For a sub machine gun the only choices are 9mm and 5.56x30mm( without exasperating the calibre clusterfuck), but 5.56x30 will directly be in competition with the JVPC. Hence 9mm.
IMO it’s probably targeted at units which want smaller calibre weapons for CQB(like those which have purchased B&T MP-9. Police forces and CAPFs too maybe interested. Don’t see any SF use for it though to replace Micro-UZIs as I think they should shift to 5.56x45 SBRs.
Did you have any other calibre in mind?
Norotos INVG mount.
