Wishlist: What systems/arms do you think Indian armed forces should go for?

[!!craft!!]

Dude I don't think US will sell B-1 Lancer. Instead we can go for Tu-22M3 . I think there were some talks about four of them for IN....

thats the reason why its a wishlist..

 

[Kinetic]

These four could very well be bought instead of 40 nuclear capable fighters strategic command is proposing to buy.

Agreed. But it was in the news in 2004/05 after that no news about them. Don't know what happened to them.

Yeah but the wishlist should be reasonable. Why should we opt for something that is not for sale.

Archer FH77 BW L52 Self-Propelled Howitzer, Sweden

The system is operated by three or four crew members who are protected in combat by being under armour. The armoured platform provides protection against 7.62mm rounds, armour penetration rounds, 6kg mines (level 2 STANAG 4569) and has NBC protection for the crew.

The system is designed for high strategic, operational and tactical mobility. The vehicle can reach road-speeds of up to 70km/h, is capable of traversing snow up to a depth of 100cm, is rail transportable and can be air-transportable in the new A400M aircraft. A large hydraulically operated stabiliser is installed in the rear of the chassis and is lowered with the vehicle in the selected firing position.

The gun elevation and traverse ranges are 0° to +70° and -75° to +75°. The initial deployment time and the redeployment times are each less than 30 seconds.

The system provides precision strike firepower and high sustained firepower for support and for deep firing operations with more than 25t of ammunition per gun and 24-hour operation.

The howitzer has a continuous fire rate of 75 rounds an hour, an intensive fire rate of 20 rounds (i.e. a full magazine) in 2.5 minutes, and a salvo fire rate of three rounds in 15 seconds. The MRSI capability, multiple round simultaneous impact, is up to six rounds. Direct-sighting can be used for target ranges up to 2,000m.

^^^ Archer is an excellent system. I like it and gonna post it as well.

IA direly need system like Archer FH77.

 

[Kinetic]

Then my list go for
1>Ageis ship defence system

I think LM already made a presentation. Though we have Aegis like combat system on board P-17 itself but we need missiles like SM-3 or SM-6.

2>F/35 C

IN already sent RFI.

3>PAK - DA

May be but I think we should concentrate on UCAV.

4>Tavour rifle as standard infantry rifle from israel with full tot.

Agreed.

5>stryker infantry vehicle

Rite. There were some talks as well and DRDO might have something similar within years.

Arjun + IronFist Active Protection = Tank Gun Proof

We need systems like this which can be equipped to any existing inventory.

I read that it's in talk, Israel has already offered this systems for our Arjun's MBT's.

Hope we could see them soon.

YouTube - M113 Gavins + IronFist Active Protection = Tank Gun Proof
