In a new boost to India’s defense industry, Russia’s state-owned Rosoboronexport has offered to set up a facility in India to produce modern weapons and future Kalashnikov’s designs. Will the Kalashnikov assault rifle compete with the Israeli Tavor assault rifle, already manufactured in India, on this vast market?

The offer was made during an Indian delegation’s industrial visit to the Kalashnikov Group facility in Izhevsk. Apurva Chandra, Director General Acquisition of the Ministry of Defense of India led the delegation. The company’s Director General Alexandr Mikheev said they were ready to help India construct a facility “similar to what the Mr. Apurva Chandra-led delegation saw today to produce modern weapons and future Kalashnikov’s designs. Rosoboronexport has substantial expertise to accommodate needs of our partner.”

According to defenseworldnet, the Indian officials were given a tour of the production facility and were given the opportunity to test numerous Kalashnikov’s weapons on a range. “What we have witnessed proves the plant’s capacity to provide uninterrupted production of hi-tech equipment in quantity. While assembly of the latest AKs has already gone in full swing, we saw good potential for future growth and transition to production of state-of-the-art designs in the future,” noted Mr. Apurva Chandra. “We hope that the issue of setting up production of Kalashnikov assault rifles gives way to specific solutions in the near future for us to take up implementing our mutually beneficial intentions,” added Deputy Director General Arkady Privalov of the Kalashnikov Group.

In May 2017, the Indian Punj Lloyd inaugurated a joint venture with Israel Weapon Industries (IWI), India’s first private sector small arms manufacturing plant.

The joint venture (JV) Punj Lloyd Raksha Systems (PLR) was designed to manufacture four products X95 carbine and assault rifle, Galil sniper rifle, Tavor assault rifle and Negev Light Machine Gun (LMG), according to thehindu.com.

India is going for Tavors & AR Platforms.

IWI Tavors, are already license production in India, JV with 'Punj Lloyd'
Indian Army will go for AR Platforms ,from Different countries.

And AK-103 ,or Future AK-15 ,or Israhelli AK-Alpha,
will be for Light Infantries ,BSF , Special Police & Army Reserves .

----





Pakistan made a very wise decision to with 'CZ Bren-2 807'

CZ BREN 2 is THE Best Automatic-Assault/Battle Rifle, out there.

CZ BREN-2 806/807 is The Best Option.
CZ Bren -2 is loaded with features .

But It will be even better ,with a new Caliber, Like 300-BLK or New Caliber,Eg: 7.62*40 mm.

On the other hand
SCAR-17 has NO useful Features.
Its an Over Priced & Over Sensationalized.

But , What it comes down to is Money $$...




But when is POF going to purchase them & start license production.
Its been over a year, the deal has been signed.

Its said POF needs 250$ Million US$ modernization & upgrades, to sustain.

& the CZ license deal is worth '2-2.5 Billion US$' for just CZ Bren-2 807 license production.


Total costs roughly add upto '3 Billion US$'

And who will Pay for this ?
