Can't our research and OFB companies design a good design in say 1-2 years? Is it so hard to design a rifle that is basic thing for military and it must be designed in-house.I doubt they can achieve product design and prototype manufacturing in 6 months. There is a reason why their development process is slow, every component goes thru a tender. And procurement takes 2-3 months for getting closed on average.
And most of all public sector companies are usually not customer friendly.
Global tender has nothing against OFB, it just new DPP 2016.
