6.8 is crap IMOIt'll be 6.8mm.
ARDE is currently designing the 6.8mm barrel for MCIWS.
I don't think M-16 or Ace are multi calib guns?6.8 is crap IMO
the Grendel has more knockdown power and better ballistics.
they want a multi caliber rifle for difference scenarios. 7.62x51 only meets only one part of that, but a intermediate round like the Grendel meets both.
just like we are looking for a intermediate between 7.62x51 and .50 BMG like the 338 Norma Magnum
Any idea what they are?? And why have local as well as foreign companies failed? Who makes these demands??
and INSAS passed them?
I don't know the exact requirements, but it includes functioning in Cold (Siachin), hot and sandy (Thar) ,Marshy and salty conditions, in short a mix of extreme conditions only a few other countries have.

Sounds to me like you're describing the AK5c:
Combat proven, reliable in all climates, supports a wide array of attachments including sights and grenade launchers, badas* - what more could one ask for in a rifle?
I'm only joking of course, I'd never pitch Swedish gear - no Norwegian would ever do that.
Still, rifles already exist with those capabilities and the AK5c is one of them.

I'm only joking of course (though it fits the requirements), I'd never pitch Swedish gear - no Norwegian would ever do that, it cuts into our business.

Why did they do that?
Cost.
Not much transfer of technology.
Most of the developed world with a ahitload of money use these in extreme conditions and have exported them to several nations with success...
Meanwhile you are also using "failed foriegn guns"...
As for INSAS... Yeah an ugly (not known do things like ergonomics),semi auto (prone to jamming) and badly manufactured is a success compared to "failed" guns like M-16,C-805,ACE,B-160..
Bofors and Carl Gustav used by IA are of Swedish origin also Saab AWACS used by PakistanScandinavians making weapons?!??!?!?!?!?!?! I thought you guys were suppose to be peaceful??

There is no doubt on that. Hindus in General but lesser so in UP and other states with their idiotic 5000 head weddings.
UP Muslims are total idiots when it comes to money generally and spend on needlessly lavish stuff. They will buy and spend where the Muslim in the south might save.
However, even within Muslims and Hindus there are the Gujratis.. they are natural businessmen and misers to their death bed.
So considering a Gujarati is right now in charge of India.. money making is unstoppable.
No, the first MMRCA rounds were based on technical specs only.Why did they do that?
Cost.
Bribe the Angel & go to HeavenI always asked my Gujju friends, what are you going to do with all this wealth that you refuse to spend even on yourself? I mean, are you going to burn it when you die?
