Looks ARX-160-esque to me with that new butt.

Looks good, wanna see the LMG ARDE is working on. I believe it's a dedicated LMG this time.

Indeed, not an assualt rifle derivative but a stand alone concept, the MCIWS looks promising so hopefully ARDE's new generation LMG will also be a contemporary product.

Awesome! Really looking foreward to this reveal, any idea what calibre the ARDE LMG will be? I'm assuming 5.56mm but I would hope it could also have a 7.62mm variant so that both the Bren and INSAS LMGs can be replaced. And didn't ARDE say their LMG would be somewhat based on the IWI Negev that also has two calibre variants (5.56 and 7.62)?

Interesting to see Dr.C.K. Prahlada there. He 'fathered' the Akash and Astra development programs before he superannuated; during which I'd met him. He is now in an advisory role.
