This is the second tranche that we already discussed. Yes but the article confirms that the order has now been placed with Sig. It also includes other details including an mlock bayonet fitment etc. The extra testing information also helps dispell the doubts about the weapon courtesy of the ftp pro...

Which issue are we talking about? My statement was more a general comment about expectations (including my own) that any 7.62 will be a bit of a beast. Thankfully it looks very much under control. As far as an indigenous alternative to the caracal is concerned, there is a ofb carbine said to be bas...

First video of the sig in action at the range http://twitter.com/manishindiatv/status/1284014629090295808 To be honest the recoil does not look bad but neither did the recoil look bad for the OFB 7.62.

Those structures are not bunkers but "Sangar"(temporary bunkers).

Our usual suspects are running hour long programs about the "Chinese" structures.

Have the Chinese moved back to PP 14? Is it possible they changed the course of the river and we do not have direct access to the spot now? The sat pics are quite confusing indeed.

Very interesting. So then the No.9 BRD doesn't need to do a complete upgrade from Izdeliye 9.12B to Izdeliye 9.20 UPG standard. Only specific items will need to be modified to bring the 9.19 standard to the 9.20 standard. This deal makes a lot of sense now. I would take the AFM report with a load o...

The elephant in the room needs immediate addressing. The Tejas needs an alternate engine and if the French are willing to sort the Kaveri we should pay the asking price.

The photos appear to show very good fit and finish- a relief given the increased involvement of private sector players as large component suppliers.

8g on the first flight? just shows the confidence the test team has in the aircraft. Barring the rafale, the tejas may just be the premier air to air asset of the IAF.

No that easy. Someone in the know can clarify but I believe every foc point(already proven in flight testing) will have to be demonstrated before delivery.
