The barrel for the LSR yet it was stated the future aim is to build the barrel locally too ,
Recently a lot of MOU have been signed especially for manufacturing machinery,
What if I tell you they still use type 56 and newer 103s in very large numbers, only for drill m4 is used and also used by close protection squads, Zarrar Coy etc the only parts of ssg that come into public limelight
No need , ak103 is being made locally it will suffice,
We need to focus on optronics and C4ISR more than weapons for now, as PK18 and 21 seem to be good enough,
As for MG1A3, We can upgrade it like the BudesWher has, replace metal parts with advances polymers, bipod tripod parts with polymers...
I can attach picatinny rails to my Enfield No5 'jungle carbine ', replace wood with moulded camo polymer furniture , add bipod ,laser, add a 50000$ predicting x32 scope ,
Yeah it's just a fire predictor like some really really expensive electronic sniper scopes have , to adjust for wind, moving target, distance , etc and gives you the correct point to aim and shoot at for a hit
Yeah , to be honest anything is better than g3+Type56 , before pk18 I liked scar but knew it's expensive, but now since pk18 is out we should go for local even if it has a few minor short comings ( if it does at all ) and improve it over iterations as that will save a lot of forex plus if the...
Please close , I joined pdf more than 3 years ago because of this thread, except very very few posts this thread is just die hard gun fandom scar bren etc,
Fingers crossed on the pk18
Yeah that's why I said 155 howitzers instead of barrel, much more complex than standard mbt barrels,
However since the M777ER is almost ready , and India being a customer of base version will most likely also order the ER version in the future as well ,
A threat like that we can't counter with...
I agree but being a bit of an optimist ,
Seeing how we've been manufacturing 125 barrels ,
Maybe we can step up a notch to 155 howitzer guns ? The manufacturing capability will have to be acquired but I'm sure the RND capability exists
No no, this gun was shown just now at the a defence expo in Islamabad where Turkish and Pakistani companies showed products , so just security or ID card for the expo
Horus the taking G3 mag part is excellent, millions of magazines already in ordinance logistical depots won't have to be replaced driving costs down meaning much quicker replacement
To be honest quwa, for a indigenous design , especially a modular ar15 based one like this, making x39 and 5.56...
