https://economictimes.indiatimes.co...ed-attack-submarines/articleshow/61880118.cms

"The government has given approvals for six new SSNs (nuclear attack submarines) earlier this year. We have started work but still are at the pen to paper stage," Vice Admiral P Murugesan, the Vice Chief of Naval staff said in response to a question by ET. The top officer expressed confidence in the abilities of the navy's submarine design bureau to come out with a new class of vessels in less than 15 years. "These things take time but we will be able to improve on the timelines that the pioneers (nations) have set which typically took over 15 years for such a project," the Vice Chief said.

Intiassakin harkitaan leikkauksia sotilasmääriin sekä armeijan palveluksessa työskenteleviin siviileihin.

Army chief, General Bipin Rawat, will talk to his top generals – the seven army commanders, and his principal staff officers – on Tuesday here, seeking to bring them on board as he embarks on the most far-reaching personnel and organisational reforms the army has attempted since independence.

The defence ministry has already initiated a reduction of 57,000 personnel, including 30,000 civilian employees, in line with recommendations of the Shekatkar Committee. Now Rawat is courageously targeting the reduction of another 50,000 uniformed soldiers.

These include not just logistics and services personnel, but even manpower from infantry battalions – the basic fighting unit of the army and widely considered untouchable.
Confirming the process to Business Standard, Rawat stated: “The army has become 1.25 million strong and is continuing to expand.

We spend 83 per cent of our budget on revenue expenditure, mainly salaries and pensions, which leaves just 17 per cent for modernisation. We have to cut down on manpower to make more for equipment.

Tuleeko kaupat tällä kertaa vai käykö kuten aikaisemminkin elikkä kaupat perutaan viime hetkellä?

A US-made battle rifle and a UAE-made carbine have emerged as the lowest bidders for the Indian Army's requirement for equipping its soldiers with a new rifle. The US arm-maker SIG Sauer's SiG 716 finished with the 'L1' or lowest quote for the army's fast track procurement of 72,000 new automatic rifles.

The UAE arms firm Caracal's CAR 816 close-quarter carbine finished 'L1' in a separate bid for 94,000 carbines, when price bids were opened this week.

The SIG weapon chambered for the 7.62x51 mm round beat two contenders, a Caracal battle rifle and a rifle from Israeli Weapons Industries. Caracal's 816 carbine chambered for the 5.56x45 round, priced out a competitor fielded by Thales-Australia.

The army plans to spend Rs 3,500 crore on these rifle acquisitions for which it had issued RFPs on 17 global arms manufacturers in February this year. It has cited urgent operational requirements for the procurement of these weapons. A senior army official called the rifle and carbine procurements a "top priority" for the infantry.

India plans to license-produce the AK-103 assault rifle in one of three Indian ordnance factories which have the capability to build assault rifle.

The AK-103 is a more modern variant of the iconic Russian assault rifle. Talks for the production line were initiated by defence minister Nirmala Sitharaman in Moscow in April this year. The Russian rifle is expected to meet the requirement for the 650,000 assault rifles for which RFIs were floated recently.

Plan B To Save Abhilash Tomy Was 4 Commandos Would Parachute Into Ocean
...
If it became clear that ships in the south Indian Ocean wouldn't get to Commander Tomy early enough, the Captain and his squad of three commandos would fly to the area, jump out of an Air Force C-17 transport and combat-free fall into the Indian Ocean, parachuting in as close as possible to Thuriya, Commander Tomy's tiny boat.


According to the Marcos team leader, "The plan was to select the best skydivers, who were equally proficient in water, to land right next to the boat and reach him.''

The team which was selected was ''the best in the business and was handpicked'' for the rescue attempt.

Sitä minä mietin, että ne vissiin ajatteli että veteen päästyään ne olisi uineet sen veneen kiinni toivoen, että tuuli ei vie sitä liian nopeasti? Ilmeisesti Intiassa ei ole käytössä sellaista lentokoneesta pudotettavaa venettä jota olisi voinut käyttää tuollaisessa operaatiossa?

Ei ilmeisesti, tai ei ainakaan merenkäyntiin sopivaa. Tässä jenkkien tiputus.

Ei ole saatavilla suomesta. Oletan, että sinulla on jokin ohjelma joka kätkee sijainnin?

Mutta anyway, käytin tuossa aikaisemmin googlea ja näin kuvia siitä, kun veneitä pudotettiin ilmasta joten ei siitä sen enempää.

Mulla näkyi ongelmitta.
 
Indian Army to cut 150,000 jobs as force plans to go ‘lean and mean’
The Indian Army is likely to cut over 150,000 troops over the next four to five years under an overarching cadre review that seeks to sharpen the force’s effectiveness and prepare it for future wars, two officers familiar with the move said on Sunday.The cadre review, ordered on June 21, covers wide-ranging issues including cutting the personnel strength of the 1.2-million strong force and merger of different verticals to optimise its functioning, as reported by HT on August 13.An 11-member panel, headed by the military secretary Lt Gen JS Sandhu, is carrying out the review and is expected to make its preliminary presentation to army chief General Bipin Rawat by the month-end before submitting its final report in November.

“Merging of some verticals and rationalising roles are likely to result in cutting 50,000 troops over the next two years. A reduction of 100,000 more personnel may be possible by 2022-23. But all this is in the study phase right now,” said one of the officials cited above.The troop reduction is likely to be achieved through revamping different verticals including directorates at the army HQs, logistics units, communications establishments, repair facilities and other administrative and support areas, the second official said.
