    Made in India military weapons and support systems

    No idea bro but it is on MH plates. Not sure about a "heavier variant", I agree the wheels on the pictured vehicle look much bulkier than in the render but that can just be an oversight. The tires on the render look to be regular road tires. Not sure why there would be a heavier variant of...

    Indian Army Orders 3192 Tata Safari Storme Vehicles

    Scorpio was tested too, Safari Storme was what the IA selected. That's the Land Rover Discovery Sport, the next gen Safari (codenamed Tata Q501) is speculated to have similar design features (as seen in the render at the top) and is based on the same L550 platform as the LR Discovery.

    Indian Army Orders 3192 Tata Safari Storme Vehicles

    TATA Hexa is far more interesting IMHO in terms of mass market appeal and the change TATA is making to its brand: Not for the Safari Storme, the Storme is being bought for the GS800 role, at most 5,000 will be ordered for this role. The 40-50,000 Gypsys will be replaced by 2-3...

    INDIAN Emergency Services (POLICE, AMBULANCE,FIRE)

    This is actually what happens in many cases, riots are filmed and where identifcations are made the idiots are rounded up a few days later, there's a reason they try so hard to cover their faces as they go about their criminality. Yeah man that's the problem, if the kill ratio exceeds 1:1...

    INDIAN Emergency Services (POLICE, AMBULANCE,FIRE)

    You sure these are CISF bro? Could be CRPF. + why the f*ck aren't these kind of crowd control techniques employed in J&K? There the stone pelters run the roost but this kind of modern and disciplined crowd control technique would put those animals in their place.

    Indian Navy News & Discussions

    It has been offered to India in the past (well one of the QE class) but the IN turned it down for a number of reasons: 1) The IN is FAR more interested in getting a carrier of their design 2) IN is now fixated on getting a CATOBAR carrier (with EMALS), PoW is not capable of CATOBAR ops 3) The...

    What is Your Opinion on Panama Leak's Judgement ?

    As expected, this result is one that all sides can be content with and the issue will quickly be relegated to history. I have no doubt the Supreme Court faced pressure to come to this exact conclusion. Anyone expecting the JIT to come back with groundbreaking findings that will substantially...

    Naval warship ‘INS Chennai’ is an example of ‘Make in India’: Indian Navy

    Welcome to my ignore list, typical cr@p that isn't worth responding to.

    Naval warship ‘INS Chennai’ is an example of ‘Make in India’: Indian Navy

    The rest of your post is BS also but I want to correct this part most of all, how is the BARAK-8 not a "decent" SAM (not A2A missile obviously)? It is easily one of the finest naval SAMs ever deployed and when operated alongside the EL/M-2048 MF-STAR it is an almost invincible defence. The...
