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

This is hilarious. You're comparing Indian and pakistani economies just because you saw some random YT video with a rickshaw puller Can I say the same with Indian & American economies just because there are homeless people in both countries

Yankees always keep a tab on their tech. The JF-17 was originally planned to be an F-16 rip off but weren't completely successful and ended up with a cheap chinese knockoff

We don't have an immediate threat where the armed forces could put these to use...even in the long run if some conflict arises, 30 drones ain't gonna make a difference given China can counter em with numbers with a 10:1 ratio. $3bn could get you another squadron of Rafales which is what exactly...

Lightweight torpedo test-fired successfully from Navy’s Ilyushin Il-38 ASW The indigenously-instrumented Advanced Light Torpedo (TAL), developed by the Naval Science and Technological Laboratory (NSTL), succesfully cleared its maiden flight trial with a parachute system from the Indian...

No matter what support n weapons packages they offer, a drone which costs $15-20mn can't be justified with a price hike of over 5 times. Our dumbos are being ripped off by the US but hey it's foreign maal at the end of the day and that'll make us win wars per our slave mindsets

$3bn for 30 drones which is $100mn a pop. No matter whatever training, support, maintenance, spares and weapons package they provide along with...it just doesn't make sense to pay freaking $100mn for a drone. Should've pumped that money into Rustom UAV, Ghatak Stealth UCAV and maybe CATS Warrior...

The aircraft is far from its conceived capabilities as it is a low cost fighter developed with low quality Chinese avionics and weapons In 1999, Pakistan and China signed an agreement to jointly develop and produce the JF-17 "Thunder" and equally share the development cost. The JF-17 was...

Given the pace at which DRDO's missile developments are going, this should be the last decade for any missile imports

There's still quite some time for Mk3 specs to come out but Mk2 is supposed to have a 160km range with a NEZ comparable to the Meteor

It all comes down to who offered the highest and most lucrative kickbacks. Nevertheless, this is only an order for 30...we'd have to see who gets the larger order. I hope they distribute instead of giving it all to a single entity (similar to how IA ordered both Tata Safari Storme & Mahindra...

This is more like license production since M4 isn't developed by Bharat Forge. Should've gone for something indigenously developed by Tata or Mahindra

They didn't announce even now...only 4 were revealed and ended up releasing a heavily edited propaganda video which was pathetic to say the least. Russia' TASS news agency said 45 chinese were killed during the Galwan clash
