Was reading that they are going back into service. But, the system will be transferred from the T55 platform and stuck on top of leopard 2's.

Yes, I heard it too. I hope they make the turret smaller, fit there also 0.12m Rheinmetall smoothbore and they have a competitor for Armata

The Standard Rifle we using has Finish origin barrel design by your country and My, specifically for Indian conditions ..

The barrel is perhaps better than the one you are using & Rest of the world ..

We have very strict rules about selling arms to countries active in wars or other conflicts. I guess India has been labeled as one. I hope your region comes peaceful and you can buy ourPATRIA NEMOs AMVs, SAKOs, VALMETSs and our new THOR modular helmet system. You know protection layer modules can be designed to look like turban also!

Ok, I think our RK62 was originally joint project with Israel.

I was talking about the barrel not the Whole Rifle ..
I am glad, that you found our steel works good enough qualilty, just like Israelis...

Another indigenous design was offered by Yisrael Galil. His rifle was based on the Finnish RK 62. While the AK-47 and RK 62 fired the 7.62×39mm Soviet round, Galili's rifle fired the smaller 5.56×45mm M193 55-grain round. At the time, the United States was replacing France as Israel's main partner and weapons supplier. The U.S. would not supply Russian ammunition, so the design of the gun was altered to use the American cartridge

@Ray, instead of skis, special forces use snow-scooters and helicopters more and more.
