Compare the P72 or SOPMOD AKM? If you intend to compare SSS's P-72, we don't have any info yet other than the rifle using 7.62 NATO rounds and is probably designed by consultants from LMT Defense while SSS holds the IP. This isn't surprising since UAE's Caracal also has most of it's rifles...

Surgical strikes on Pakistan have been grabbing headlines in India especially after Pakistan’s foreign minister SM Qureshi again alleged that India is preparing for a “surgical strike” to divert attention from the country’s internal issues. However, an Indian security expert has claimed...

India believes Pakistan’s proposed plan to recognise Israel by establishing diplomatic ties with it will have “no future” and will not affect the geopolitical landscape in West Asia, but will only weaken its Kashmir cause, ThePrint has leant. While Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan has said...

Rajnath Singh Inaugurates India's 1st Hypersonic Wind Tunnel Facility. Here's What it Means for Us Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Saturday inaugurated the advanced Hypersonic Wind Tunnel (HWT) test facility here, making India the third country after the US and Russia to have such a facility...

Under pressure from China, which is worried about the safety of its men and machine stationed at the strategic Gwadar port, Pakistan has started erecting a wall of barbed fencing around Gwadar city. This, when completed, will seal off the heart of Gwadar city, leaving only one entry point and...

With Turkey and Israel set to overcome their differences and get their ties back on track, experts believe that Pakistan would be watching anxiously as Israel and its key ally India having already pulled Islamabad’s strongest ally – the UAE and Saudi Arabia on its side would be gunning for...

India on Sunday said Pakistan's allegations that Indian troops deliberately targeted a vehicle of the United Nations along the Line of Control were investigated in detail and found to be factually "incorrect and false". Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) Spokesperson Anurag Srivastava said...

That's not their P-72 series rifle for which they hold the IP The rifle being tested is an AK with SOPMOD upgrades done by SSS. SOPMOD kits aren't needed for regular troops. I'm sure the newly formed AFSOD will be allowed to have SOPMOD kits for all their operators since the creme de la creme...

yeah, and surprisingly the same twitteratis came up with it just before the incident actually took place...weird right but ofcourse it's hard for brainwashed pakistanis to comprehend the same since y'all perceive your army and security agencies as saints and pakistani soldiers to be invincible

Unlikely to happen since the countries listed in ranks 4, 5, 6, 7 & 8 have active threat and adversaries which compels em to bolster fleet strength and capabilities of their respective AFs' for the foreseeable future Also, three out of those five countries have indigenous fighter jet programs...

Regarding IAF, 65% of our fighter jet fleet is Russian while over 30% is French considering Jaguar is an Anglo-French aircraft. Though we did have logistical issues with Russian suppliers in the past, most of em have been sorted out in recent times. Also, the 132 Mig-21s are being phased out...

HAL should pitch in the HJT-36 for FLIT and Tejas Mk-1A for LCA tenders HJT-36 LCA Tejas

If pop & military resources were all it takes to win a war...Afghanistan wouldn't be known as the graveyard of superpowers decimating the US and even the Soviet Union at its peak. and now with nukes in play, there's a lot more at stake

Yeah, my bad...I actually thought you were referring to HAL's LUH

OSINTs did predict PA is gonna fire on the UN vehicles and blame it on India...it's hilarious how this actually turned out to be true and UN not giving a damn about pakistani rants

I'm all in for the AK-203 deal to be scrapped but SSS P-72 rifle is unproven and I don't think any of the forces tested it either. NSG & Para-SF were seen testing their Viper and Saber sniper rifles pre-pandemic but there were no reports after that. If either of the special forces opt for it...

Apart for the cost disparity mentioned in both deals, the AK-203 variant IA opted for isn't actually an AK-203 but is a hybrid of AK-103 & 203. There are much better assault rifles using NATO rounds we can scout for and I'm sure those companies would be willing to offer localized production at...

Any credible source for that info? I spoke to my IA buddy regarding this who is current a Rudra pilot for AAC. Per his colleagues who flew the LCH & LUH, both happened to be on par and better in several aspects over the Dhruv/Rudra

Indigenization has come a long way

Feb-26th showed how PAF effectively used EW and AWACS. They have over twice the number of AWACS with 7 times smaller in land mass. It was evident that Abhi's Mig-21 was blinded which is why he didn't know that he crossed into enemy airspace despite ground controller trying to contact him. Their...
