DRDO and PSU's

That's the job of Early Warning Radars and SAM. India can't outproduce cheens even in SAM, for every conventional ballistic missile of India, they will field 4 to 5 interceptors. What we need is something that will make enemy use higher proportional resources to confront that. Using regular ballistic missiles is just waste of money. What we need to field is Quasi-Ballistic M

An interceptor costs several times more than a TBM like ATACMS/ Pralay.

issiles like Shaurya, MARVs like Agni-P, Ramjet Cruise Missiles like Brahmos, Subsonic Cruise Missiles like ITCM and finally hypersonic glide boost/un-boosted missiles. Regular Ballistic Missiles like Iran is nothing but a clown show against much advanced PLA. Every asset fielded by India should make PLA invest in more proportional value assets to neutralize that aka Virtual Attrition.

Almost all of their SAMs are of semi active type, by the way.

We're talking about launching a nuclear missile my guy. And as it's being launched from rail then it also means situations are bit dire. So I don't think for anyone OHEs would be a priority over an ICBM.

This tiny guy from the nearest rail shed to the launching position can easily clear a section of OHE before the launcher arrives.

I don’t think I was very clear, I was referring to the tethered drone my guy.

Random Q, incase of war-time, and if Ass-blasted Gernails ask for it, is it possible for DRDO( or whichever agency ) to scale up production to produce a lot of these guns?

Or will GoI reps have to go to foreign countries, and do mujra with katora in one hand and kidney in the other for EmErGeNcY PrOcUrEmEnTs?

In war times genrails will use emergency procurement route , to buy

U can't built industry in such a short notice forget scaling up to meet wartime requirements
Only option will be delayed gold plated imports with delivery after war or conflict

As one member in dfi said once war starts RM job will be to fly to every country with katora to import

And infact that's the goal of the masters who are empowering or owning import lobby

Scale of production is never an issue.

Furthermore in case of a full fledged war the government always has some kind of executive power regarding defence production e.g., it can literally force let's say Tonbo Imaging to let go all its IPRs and transfer personnel to Mahindra Defence where their equipment would be made in the required rate.

Ok good to know that we have domestic production options and don't need to be dependent on foreign vendors who will do some drama or price gouge us for supply

Yea even i thought the same because if even land, construction, power supply, infra is handled by govt we will still need to buy, import and transport expensive machinese for the actual manufacturing.

All good but Tonbo does not hold all IPR IIRC.

DRDO/ARDE is not the production agency. They are basically R&D. Even the limited prototype were build by an MSME.

Yes. In case of war, companies like SSS, BF, Astr, AWEIL, Adani can manufacture the guns since the product is ours. Even we can see refinement in the product like what happened with ATAGS, Whap.

unless the war is a forever wars like the ones muricans get into, or world wars, battle rifle while going in and while coming out of the war will be the same.

for a short conflict or even something that can go for a few years, small arms are likely to remain the same. which for IA it means insas, sig-716i and ak203. and during wars, entire infantry fighting at the same time is close to zero.

if there is no scenario of introducing a new rifle in middle of a war, that leaves the question of spares. for sigs all spares have to be imported since they don't seem to have a local partner. for aks too some of the parts are imported as of now.

in essence with the current selection of infantry rifle in medium term, without contingency planning for spares the chances of running around for imports is medium to high.

caveat being these are tough machines, they don't wear out that easy. accessories like p-rail and things that go on p-rails are the most likely to go first than the core rifle parts.
