These AR-style rifles are about to win a major Indian military contract
https://www.militarytimes.com/off-duty/gearscout/i.....-contract/

Citat:The Indian Army is in the process of spending major dough, to the tune of USD $503 million, on a new service rifle for its frontline infantry troops.
And a pair of AR-style carbines have emerged as the top choices for the highly lucrative contract.
In a bid to partially replace the problematic and incredibly controversial 1B1 INSAS, the Indian Army's current standard-issue assault rifle, the Indian Ministry of Defence will soon enter a three-month negotiation period with US-based arms giant SIG Sauer Inc. to procure over 72,000 SIG 716 battle rifles.
Citat:The second part of the multi-million dollar contract will ultimately go towards Caracal International LLC, a UAE-based defense contractor offering their CAR816, a carbine analogous to the M4, firing the 5.56 NATO round. Similar to the SIG 516 and the 716, the CAR816 uses a short-stroke pushrod gas piston design, and comes with a 16 inch barrel.

Ovi kažu da će kupiti i jednu i drugu.

Indian Army develops armed quadcopter
Citat:The Indian Army (IA) has announced the development of what it described as an armed quadcopter prototype to partially meet its operational requirements along India’s disputed borders with China and Pakistan.
Designed by two IA soldiers and displayed at the Army Technology Seminar-2019 in New Delhi on 11 January, the mini quadcopter has already been successfully employed in “live” operations along the Line of Control (LoC) in the disputed northern region of Kashmir, army officials told Jane’s on 14 January.
The quadcopter was initially developed as a day and night surveillance platform in 2015 by Gurpreet Singh and Amrik Singh of the IA’s 21 Sikh Regiment, but has subsequently been modified to carry a 2 kg payload that can consist of ammunition, first-aid kits, improvised bombs, or up to three grenades.
