ADA AMCA

Are you Satwik Sadhukhan?...the guy who did the renders 😜

That is unlikely and this is more like a wishlist from some defence enthusiast. The only fighter jet IN could likely get is TEDBF. Not even the SH since IN is well aware of the strings attached in inducting an American jet as their frontline fighter. We're scheduled to get the S-400 later this...

The renders don't seem accurate to what we've seen from the scaled models displayed during Aero India 2021

$500mn has been allocated to the design phase few years ago. Now that the design has finally been frozen for AMCA Mk-1, ADA/HAL are seeking around $1.5bn more for the development of 6-7 prototypes

I believe HAL would still act as the final integrator, particularly for AMCA which involves sensitive 5th gen tech while most sub-assemblies/modules will be outsourced to private firms. LCA's assembly line will be likely converted to MWF down the lane but TEDBF has a higher chance to be...

The Uttam AESA Radar that will go on MWF, TEDBF and Su-30MKI upgrade will have 1280 TRMs

Missile Loadout

India has quietly commissioned its secretive nuclear missile tracking vessel that had been under construction since 2014, entering a select league of nations with the capability to monitor missile launches at long distances, enhancing the testing programme and adding a crucial part to a national...

Very unlikely given pakistan will be relying on Turkey and China for it's defence needs

No ToT for the Sigs...only for the AKs which is sorta foolish since AK design is the most copied in the world be it licensed or unlicensed

Both rifles are being procured in enough numbers (atleast 216k Sigs and 600k+ AK-203s) which gives us the benefit of volume eliminating logistical issues. As stated above, AK-203s are entirely being manufactured in India with OFB receiving all the funds while only $82 per rifle goes to Russia...

We got pretty much the same price for the first two tranches around $950 per rifle and I expect the third contract to cost the same. The dumbest aspect of this is to procure them in 3 different contracts all manufactured in the US. Assuming the 3rd order to be 72k rifles as well, that totals...

Mahindra armored vehicles production in Jordan & UAE

Old Mahindra Tractor modified into a makeshift armored vehicle

Kalyani's M4

The under construction INS Vikrant AC is most likely to field Mig-29s since there were reports of additional orders for the Mig in early 2020 (IN currently has 45). The idea was to replace all Mig-29s with TEDBF IAF was quite reluctant in going with the F-16 despite offering lucrative deals...

Now that we're paying a premium, we should take full advantage of reverse engineering the crap outta it and implement in our Rustom & Ghatak UCAV projects
