Modernisation of Indian Army Infantry

What's the big fuss about proven tech? it's not as if the indigenous products aren't tested.
Rajanath Singh needs to come out and give a statement that Generols are undermining military preparedness by undermining our industries. Call out the Chandigarh lobby in a firm statement. I guess Non confortatioal Politician and babudom aren't ready for that talk yet.
One CBI Enquiry and all the generols will fall in line.
With air force having lost its edge..its Army holding the line against China and Pakistan.. And Army has held their ground admirably since 2020 Galwan clash.. So, i dont think Mudiji wants to disturb Genrols too much.. But, if the push by China turns into a shove, then we will be in deep trouble..
 
So you guys are embarrassed seeing a Sterling!!!

In 25 days we'd be having republic day parade which would get concluded with a Chap spinning on top of a Royal Enfield with a binoculars, providing 360° surveillance.
This show of force would happen just 30 days after China did their show of force.

I'd say save this for that day, it'd come handy.
That Indian soldier spinning on a Royal enfield has now become the unofficial mascot of the Indian Army on twitter and other social media..

Unfortunately this is in the same way as a clown is a mascot of a circus :facepalm4:

All these kartaps by soldiers on republic day needs to stop.

Perhaps when it was the (((British))) Indian Army some Anglo genrol may have instituted these for the lulz but our Genrols still have to continue all this.

proven tech is a valid ask, since it reduces the unknowns for a particular weapon system, especially those which have seen combat environment. just like how we have a firm view on drone warfare, because they have proven their utility elsewhere, and how quickly it was adopted within Indian military.

this is not a question for political leadership, it is for services leadership to decide their own priorities. political leadership are here to sign cheques, give strategic direction and policy framework.

Dunno where alpha defense is getting all this from but still posting here.

Most probably it's from some OpEd by someone assosiate with Kalashnikov Concern. In short, PR

"Outstanding Feedback on AK 203 (Sher) from those who matter most - our brave officers and soldiers of the mighty Indian Army."
Sher? When did we start naming our guns? The last I remember was called Haathimaar Outstanding feedback for a Kalashnikov? Words like "who matter the most - our brave officers" and "mighty Indian Army"!?
Buddy even serving members never show-off this much of fake pride

"New Additions to Inventory: AK-19, PPK-20, UBGL, and TI Sights."
AK-19!? When did we order that!? And PPK-20!? Bloody why would we be ordering a 9x19mm AK after having both ASMI and Taurus.
 
No... its just that Shivaji is a Hindutva icon.. and Zoravar Singh is not.. and looks like CO is currying some favor with political bosses..
Have there been instances of statues of Indian kings or satraps associated with the Regiment's Geography coming up in border areas previously ?.. If yes.. then, I would be wrong in my assessment..

You don't have to make everything about religion. Lets not go the mullah way.


Why is Army building shivaji statue in Pangong Tso ? Has nothing to do with local history. Build some statue of local Ladakhi king, or Dogra general Zorawar Singh (who conquered Ladakh under Dogra empire), it makes sense.

It's from the LinkedIn post of Maj. Gen. S K Sharma, CEO of IRRPL (Indo Russian Rifles Private Limited).
by someone assosiate with Kalashnikov Concern
...kuch to hai uparwale ka diya hua 🥺

Anyways, Sir was appointed Chief of Staff, Northern Command in late December 2018. Given this high-ranking post and all the responsibilities, he must have missed this year old news then

Healines should be like this.

inspection, Nov 2024 [1280x960]

I think some global shaming will stop these photo-ops and force the Army to modernize the rear echelon units effectively. Some of the best comments :

The upper brass will never see this, and even if they did, most will only get defensive. The Infantry is doomed to be like this till we get our asses handed over to us by China

What is worse is what ex-services in foreign militaries say about the state and training of indian army. You will be completely blackpilled after reading them.

Our army is just meat bags for the jernails to throw at the enemy, curtesy of our long association with the Soviets and the roots of our army structure (British colonial mind set - use the natives as meat bags). It is unfortunate that the two worst strategies came together in our army.
