Considering both the Chinese and pakis have also started extensively using NVG's, optics, and newer BPJ's, what are the avenues IA can take to ensure an edge for the infantry? Sig 716 is a step in the right direction. Any other options to provide an overmatch vis a vis infantry?

Ya'll Nibbiars The Mleechas have now but the Pakis are far from that.

NVG's are still rare with pakis, but in the other aspects of individual gear they're not far behind. Though one major limitation is their G3 rifle. Either way the question is that can IA provide some overmatch with some emerging infantry gear either from the yanks or Israelis.

Also is that a combo sights seems to be those acogs with red dots up in the piccy rails of the sights
Not ACOGs
Elcan SpectorOS 4x with CQB sight on top
Another thing that needs to be made clear is the optics (Spectre RD Combo) don’t belong to us, they belong to the British Army and are from Exercise Ajeya Warrior.

WTF, did they just use a foreign army's kit to show how "Future Ready" the Indian Army is?
