R&AW's eyes and ears in the sky...

@Abingdonboy

I remember the RFP about the CONJAM and SIGINT aircrafts a few years back.
Is this Bombardier the one or have they been delivered or no?

That RFP was for the IAF, these Bombardiers are for RAW's ARC- entirely separate forces and entirely separate requirements bro. The IAF's RFP is still yet to bear fruit and they are still on the market for such a/c but other procurements have taken precedent. There are a LOT of requirements pending, some of them quite exotic, that will only move forward once the budget is made available. The next 5 or so years are going to see some exciting purchases from the forces but the IAF and IN especially.

A top Lashkar-i-Toiba militant was killed in a brief gunfight at Kakpora area of Pulwama in south Kashmir on Saturday afternoon.

A police official told GNS that Special Operation Group (SOG) Srinagar and Police Pulwama cordoned off the Naman Begium Bagh in Kakpora. As such the forces fired few warning shots, the militants reportedly 2 to 3 in number hiding in the area opened fire resulted into an encounter.

I've heard it's just a cover for the same old helmet, though Im not 100% sure. It's been inducted for the last 5 years or so.

Nah it's a new helmet but it's nothing special and is purely a stop-gap for some frontline (non-COIN) operations. It's been indicted for a while now.
