Off-topic but here is a photo of the upgraded BVP-M2 SKCZ displayed at IDET-2013.
They's even done away with the fuel tanks on the doors.
Although apparently all this comes at the price of one less dismount which is down from the original 7 to 6, I am not quite sure if the number of...
Samson 30 is a RCWS with a 30mm Autocannon and not a GPMG.THe version most probably being submitted for the bid is the SAMSON Jr RCWS.
This is SAMSON 30 on a Pandur IICZ
Please go through the images posted on the IMI's Wave 100 Brochure.
There's a M2 machine gun instead of the MAG but the overall dimensions and profile of the Wave 100 RCWS are similar to the OFB RCWS.

The article says upgrade of the BMP-2 to BMP-2M standard not buying BMP-3's, my question was in reference to the exact variant of the BMP-2M offered to the Indian Army.
I wonder which BMP-2M they are talking about.The KBP BMP-2M Berezhok which has modular Berezhok turret with 2+2 Launchers for the Kornet missile or the Kurganmashzavod BMP-2M.
KBP BMP-2M Berezhok
Kurganmashzavod BMP-2M
And do you photos of the said TATA helmets?Because that happens to be the ACH used with Indian Camo cloth.
This is a photo of a 7th Special Forces Group Soldier using the ACH without the UCP camo cover
See any similarities with the helmets being used by our guys in Fort Bragg this...
There are barely any SCAR-16's left with the USSOCOM.The ones with the Rangers have now been returned.The Mk.17 is being issued though but not in large numbers.Tier 1 units like DEVGRU and ACE use the HK416 instead of the M4.
Helmets are American ACH/MICH.Army SF or Paras don't use ACH/MICH.Unless this happens to be the first photos of them using the ACH/MICH.What makes matter more confusing is this photo.
Here the Paras seem to have ACH in the Indian Camo, this is an easy task to accomplish but as to why this was...
It's not a 5.45x39mm carbine, if you look closely at the magazine, it's the same as the 7.62x39mm AK-47/AKM series and also has the AK-47/AKM series underfolder stock not the sidefolding AK-74 stock.There are no Ishmash or Tula made AKMSU, a few compact AK's in 7.62x39mm are made like the...
Images 1 and 3 you posted are of the FH-77B with the L39 barrel.
Image 2 is that of the FH-77B05 L52 from BAE-Mahindra JV taking part in the 155mm Howitzer Trials.
This is the what the OFB L45 FH-77 looks like.
We don't use the Zb Vz.26 we use the 7.62mm NATO 1B which is similar to the British L4 the Zb Vz.26 was chambered in 7.92x57mm Mauser the British BREN which was based on the Vz.26 was chambered in .303 British and L4 and 1B are chambered in 7.62 NATO.30 round magazines are standard for the 1B...
This is for Gripen NG and not the Gripen A/B or C/D.NG will have a Raven ES-05 AESA radar in the future.The Gripen NG test aircraft already flies with the ES-05.
It is quite possible that Su-27's are monkey models with inferior radar and as well all know the Su-27 does have quite a big...
