At least in next few years we will try to complete some blocks of F-INSAS program in a step by step fashion.

The Defence Acquisition Council (DAC), in its meeting of 22nd March 2022 held under the Chairmanship of Raksha Mantri Shri Rajnath Singh, accorded Acceptance of Necessity (AoN) for Capital Acquisition proposals of Armed Forces amounting to Rs 8,357 crore. As an impetus to ‘Aatmanirbhar Bharat’, all of these proposals have been approved under ‘Buy (Indian IDDM)’ category with focus on indigenous design & development and manufacturing in India.

AoNs accorded by DAC include procurement of Night Sight (Image Intensifier), Light Vehicles GS 4X4, Air Defence Fire Control Radar (Light) and GSAT 7B Satellite. Acquisition of these equipment and systems will enhance operational preparedness of Armed Forces by providing better visibility, enhanced mobility, improved communication and increased capability of detecting enemy aircraft.

Tata safari perhaps.

Tata safari......Jongas were much better...

Tata safari is most likely replacement of Maruti Suzuki Gipsy. Compared to Gipsy GS800 is pretty powerful vehicle. During initial induction some of our army folks underestimate the power of the car and results in minor crash here and there. This cars are mostly used in Logistics movement of our Top officials

But True Jonga replacement is Force motors LSV and Mahindra ASLV. Both of them are used in patrols in harsh terrain and carry offensive weapons.

Can't this thing be belt fed? Atleast take out the ammo anxiety from the fella trying to shoot a dancing drone in the air

Probably, though i doubt the shooter minds. This is more for drones with drop off packages than things like bayrakhtar, and bren is pretty well liked for its reliability.

Cost as well- Bren getting phased out as LMG, might as well put it to some use.

Safaris are for civilian purpose only. Movement of Officers in and around various campus, offices, cantonment areas, etc.
