we need to get a local production license of we are to make this platform viable, other than that, we can barely afford it, that too in small numbers....
 
The Russian weapon seems to be a copy of the RPA INTERNATIONAL (UK) Sniper Rifle already in use in 50 caliber version with the Army. Secondly Russian weapon supplies are influenced generally by Indian lobby is Moscow. So the credibility of actually acquiring this weapon by the Army remains low
