Modernisation of Indian Army Infantry

[Gessler]

Ya'll Nibbiars that vehicle design looks extremy awfull.

For some reason none of the vehicles being developed by Indian companies for IA look good. Some of them look outright ugly in fact. Only one that looks pretty good is the Mahindra ALSV - glad we bought a ~1000 of them.

Ya'll Nibbiars even the Tata one looks good enough.

Yea the original lsv was quite good.

Ya'll Nibbiars both the Tata and Mahindr got the Contract for the LSV's.

Tata? Don’t think so

This is actually pretty smart way to deal with these quadcopters. but the problem is most are coming along Punjab border hence BSF needs something like this.

So, army bought Ak-15 instead of Scar L and H, for which tender was issued.

No tender
A direct purchase probably
An ideal situation in which babus cannot lick off some Dhanrashi

Scar l and h was for paras.these are for state anti terrorism forces.after the fall of kabul now we are seeing a large country wide NSG drill.ak103 purchase and now ak15.so SF like NSG May get some good upgrades and even state ATS teams but our SF will mostly remain the same

Army gets its hands on first 'Made in India' grenades; all you need to know

The Indian Army received its first batch of 40,000 Multi-Mode Hand Grenades from Nagpur-based private company Economic Explosives Limited, which will replace the British-era vintage hand grenades.

For whom is the 70K AK-103 meant for?

Some say majority for IAF

Almost certainly wasn’t the army.

looks like a MHA order

That doesn’t make any sense.

let’s hope RR and they swap out their existing FAB defence furniture onto that junk.

[SUPERPOWER]

No I mean where is that list from? ~1500 FAT trucks can't be for IAF, neither I think they have use for 900 LBPV.

However, even though Ashok Leyland LBPV is in service with IAF, the term "LBPV" is used for other vehicles as well, we can't assume it will be same ASL one as IAF:

What a Shit is this man !!!!! Looks like Minicipality Garbage Van..

The lack of research and development by the private sector will result only in this abomination.
