The Belarusian sight is a 100% clone of the aimpoint it looks and operates just like an aimpoint and the high cost of the aimpoints it would be extremely costly to equip the troops in large number.

You mean sights in PA service currently are Belarus made Aimpoint clones ?

The cost isn't the only consideration though. Army wants a reliable 'system'. For example Army can get ARX-200 with Aimpoint, a SCAR with MEOPTA or a CZ with Steiner or S&B. They aren't going to let the OEMs dictate which optics they should run.

Thats why I wrote 'cheaper but comparable third party options'.

That looks like a Aimpoint T micro. Maybe they have made these aimpoint clones for PA!

Aimpoint Micro T-1 does not appear similar to RS-M Red-dot (reflex) Sight Mini. Or I am missing something ?

No. I beleive it's the Belarusian sights. I cannot prove it but my intuition leads me to believe that. I cannot be the only one who see' s the resemblance between aimpoint and the Belarusian sight?

Aimpoint T2 maybe!

Seems to be on the path of a aimpoint t2!!! With subtle differences

Pakistan should consider Turkish Optics. They are of high class quality with massive range and easy to get with TOT.
Hazrat it's not as simple as just get ToT. making optics is a very difficult process and requires huge amount of experience and expertise. Secondly who told you that Turkey will just hand you ToT?

Aselsan has established a plant for optics in Kazkastan. We have both Armed Forces and Police to equip so if go for there optics of even 3E EOS I think we can get them to establish there plants here in Pakistan and this way we can get our people trained also.

We are talking about IOP making optics. That Kazakhstan plant is Aselsan setting up shop just like Shibli is making Thales thermals in Pakistan. Secondly do you know the complexities in making optics.

SCAR was the best. Why it's not selected yet?
well our Hazrat said wait till budget and still no news. I gave him till June which is in 48hrs or less.
 
@Path-Finder Lots of Aimpoint were provided by the US military during the war on terror years. It is possible the regular military are using Belorussian clones yet the SSG will most probably be using the Aimpoint.Kudos

Indeed, I am only going by my intuition. I claim to have NO sources or network of whispers that tell me things be it paranormal or electronic based. :enjoy:

Aselsan plant in Kazakhstan is a full production facility. The plant cost 44 million USD.

Shibli has partnership with Thales; it imports Thales products and sells them in Pakistan.

I can confirm having been there and used them , SSG is using aimpoint on their type 56. It is a very good sight
