We are giving them roads, hospitals, schools, jobs, education - most basic things that were expected to be provided by you. By providing such basic things we are giving afghan people hope and aspirations. Your best gift to Afghanistan was taliban in which you people often take pride.
Pakistanis forget that Kashmir holds great value to the Indian populace. The idea of liberating an Indian State that not only holds stategic value but also is home to two major Hindu pilgrimage sites - Vaishno Devi and Amarnath Temple will not only face resistance from Indian Armed Forces but...
May god increase your hatered for Indians tenfold but every person regardless of his faith/race will find help. Humanity and Morality prevails over Religion this side of border.
Western rifles are pretty advanced but they won't survive the rigours of Indian Army. We are talking of third largest army here. Equipping our soldiers with the most expensive equipment is easy, the worst part will come afterwards when our soldiers will put these rifles to test like low level of...
For a few more bucks the Indian Army can go for AN-94 but it fires 5.45x39mm rounds. The factory can easily reconfigure it for 5.56 NATO. Its a badass rifle worth checking out.
Modern Firearms - AN-94 Abakan
For equipping a million plus army (of a developing nation) with a rifle in 5.56 category nothing is more suitable than AK-101. AK-101 is everything that INSAS wanted to be but could not achieve.
1. It fires standard 5.56×45mm NATO rounds and carries a 30 round magzine (drum magazines can be...
I have serious doubts that an industry which is still struggling with quality control for a basic service rifle can produce some serious stuff like a multi-calibre assault rifle. OFB has next to zero R&D in metallurgy and advanced polymers.
What i am actually saying is - why purchase something you don't even need. Traditional rifles are the mainstay for armies like IA because they cannot afford super cool weapons and their attachments. Even if they manage to purchase them they would not be able to maintain them. rifles are provided...
Surely there are more advanced optics available in the market but they do not come cheap and the cost for equipping more than a million soldiers with bullpups which themselves are expensive wich super advanced optics would be astronomical.
The main problem in adopting bullpup in Indian Army is ergonomics. imagine the cost and time that will go into training infantrymen in operating and maintaining rifles of a new design. Another disadvantage is that the muzzle of a bllpup bieng so near to the face the heat from muzzle flash and...
There are no disadvantages in traditional configuration to begin with that bullpup provides solution to. Yes, the overall length of the weapon is reduced with same barrel length but at what cost-
1. very few bullpups are ambidextrous. most of them eject shells to their right which would hit the...
A bullpup rifle is not the solution for an army that operates in various terrains and conditions. Tavor suits IDF and Indian Special Forces because they mostly operate in Close Quarters (IDF has most engagements in urban areas and rarely in open fields); there's a reason why countries like USA...
Dude how can you forget about your history so quick or are you living in denial.
Nanking incident is what we call Rape in our country and you takl obout 1962 as if you won any territory out of it. Remember that our soldiers are just as willing to kill as soldiers on your side. Remember we...
If there is another Sino-India war ever, it will be initiated by China. The reason is that for past fourty years or so China has been coveting certain states which India "Stole" right under China's nose and China could do nothing. Well China actually did try in 1962 but couldn't achieve through...
Nobody else has got enemies like India whose enemies are more bothered about delays in its defence acquisitions than India itself, considering the fact that these weapons would be used against them if India ever goes to war.
We still have Arunachal Pradesh so your argument proves nothing.
Discovery Channel similarly showed a documentary on Arjun MBT in a half hour program called"Inside Out - DRDO" on 25 August. The next documentary will be shown on 8 Sep.
The version of FNMAG you are asking for is not yet available in the inventory of Indian forces.
M240 which is used by the US army is a man portable version of FNMAG.
This is what CoBRA and rest of the Armed Forces need to replace thier LMGs with.
The use of optics in dense jungles is...
HAL should definitely give license to TATA to produce all its aircraft specially Dhruv. There is a huge backlog of orders both national and international for this helicopter. This will significantly reduce the burden off HAL's shoulders and speed up dhruv's production.
