What's new

Futuristic soldier as a system undergoes skill tests at CAIR (not F-INSAS)

Perhaps it is better not to depend on just one soldier system and simultaneously develop multiple systems considering the future demand.

True, variations are required, fr example, one advanced system should be made for police too, it shouldn't be as powerful as army but it should be sufficient enough, by the way, how many police depts. have swat facility other than Delhi ??

Actually most states and major cities have post-26/11 set up SWAT like units( like in US they may be called different things, like QRT, SRT,ERT etc), there just isn't too much publicity given to this- which is probably good.

Thanks, good to hear that and how is their response time??

I have heard chennai police has a response time of 4 minutes from the time a call for help is made...

Well that's a tricky Q- the first responders are likely to have a pretty decent response time these days (the MHA has federal guidelines for this sort of thing and many states have GPS tracking in their vehicles) but from the time first responders arrive, ***** the situation and then request the SWAT/ERT/QRT/SRT etc then this response unit to ready and arrive on scene is inherently going to take some time, maybe 30-40 mins (maybe more) and this is obviously going to vary widely depending on where the location is in relation to the response team's base and what provisions are in place to get them to the scene (and other external factors- traffic for instance).

Yeah, I can understand that, anyways, cool news thanks...

Whats gonna happen to FINSAS ? I mean it doesn't look like that IA is even considering DRDO's FINSAS solution. Various kinds of RFI have been issued and according to Trishul blog, US OEMs like Bharat Dynamics and Raytheons.

F-INSAS project is going on, the purchases by IA has mostly related to modernization not F-INSAS. This project by CAIR is also part of F-INSAS. F-INSAS means Future Infantry Soldier as A System. As I said no country yet to deploy a system like F-INSAS, it is very futuristic and not delayed. We are eying a quantum jump in technology so wait for two more years.

And only special, high ranking soldiers get this? Because it seems pretty expensive.

what about the main system... the rifle.... in the pic it looks like them16, but knowing IA, they will try to peddle the INSAS which to begin with is a crap rifle...

No, every one of the 1.2 million man army (plus most of reserves and many paramilitary) the point is to completely transform the IA (and as mentioned this isn't only about soldier's kit but a whole concept of integration), the entire F-INSAS program is thus expected to cost in excess of $30 billion over 10-12 years.

No the F-INSAS will have a completely new amd advanced rifle (could be home built of procured from abroad, not clear as of yet).

i wonder if these guys' equipment/uniform is in someway part of this new program??
can someone clarify?

F-Futuristic, IN-Infantary, S-Soldier, A-As, S-System.....See it is the sameone only...nothing different over here...

No this team's equipment is in NO way related to the F-INSAS program but purely part of the program of nation-wide police upgrades. If you see most states' emergency response units you will see their equipment is (or soon will be) equally as good and the guys looking equally as good. Post 26/11 states in Indi are spending a lot on such units so they are not vulnerable to the same scenario. This is great news but, again, in no way relates to F-INSAS (although once IA have started receiving F-INSAS compontents CAPFs will also start receiving much of the same gear).
