i think it will mainly depend with which service the aircraft is being tendered for.... if it is the Army then VIP transport no doubt, with AF it could be either VVIP or special msn... as per the tender it looks like it is for the AF actually... I would want it to be a special mission tbh... but...
Frankly, it is definitely a misunderstanding of the terminology on part of whoever has written the document. If one goes though the rest of it, you can make it out that it does not carry much material nor substance. It is tailored down version of the detailed reports that used to come out...
surely promising.... the main query is that the army wanted to replace G£ yet maintain 7.62x51 calibre / ammo as per its requirements... this article says the BW20 is 5.56 and 7.62x39... quite a twist for me....

It was an experimental venture but was discontinued...weapon weight increased by a little over half a kilo besides the muzzle brake...
I wont claim being an insider with all sources... but I would surely say that you have not been following the news when PAF graduation ceremonies happen and the PR sends out a list of countries' cadets that graduated as well..
I mean I never get into arguments on the forum but it is not what I want to call it but what is a reality in force. It would be misleading for a lot many readers on this forum if they take home from this thread that AK / T56 is replacement for G3 because it is not. All T56 induction is part of...
Just a quick fact check...induction of equipment that you mentioned is piece meal and not a standardisation.... neither the T56 / POF made T56 is being standardised despite its addition in large numbers... The standard rifle remains the G3... and it is not being replaced with any other...as of...
unless its somebody's personal cam or choice...there is no official recording or the sort. Only some written brief is made part of official records and now a days with some pictures as evidence.
