We could have paid Uncle Sam's jiziya through P8i's and chinooks man. Why go for Stryker
BAboons are clueless

That economic times article has Defense secretary saying that Army has rejected non amphibious version.. and US will offer an amphibious version for trial.
But, the headline is the exact opposite

how did they come up with 1.85m? So basically DRDO VSHORADS is once again sidelined for imports

For Adani's assembled IGLA-S (v/s Adani who is also DcPP for DRDO VSHORADS)

There is normally a +-10% tolerance. It is present in RFP for small arms as well as Light Tank and some others as well. So ideally the tolerance should be present in VSHORAD RFQ also

30km range with 14km flight ceiling of Akash Ng seems outrageously low. Siper Block-2 from the mehmets has a 30km flight ceiling and 150km operational range. What am I missing? Either DRDO royally messed up its development, or they are not telling the full picture. Akash-Ng looks to be the anomaly, other SAMs with that profile have similar range/flight ceiling as the Siper

Barak8 can do 100km+
Akash NG is basically Barak8 in terms of form factor

It could very well be User's requirement is of 30km onlee and so that is what is stated

Could also be due to a potential non-compete clause in MRSAM development contract with IAI.
I remember initially the range of 70-80km was floating around for Akash-NG.

It's incredibly dumb to shill for an imported product that still failed the Army's trials.
Imagine how bad it is if even the Generals are pushing back.

btw is there a pic of the latest version of WhAp that Alpha is referring to?

Strykers and Javelins will NOT be inducted in significant numbers (if inducted at all). I have been hearing about Strykers/Javelins for God knows how many years now....

Dolunf will be gone in 2029 and ya'll will still keep talking about Strykers and Javelins.
