http://allindiaroundup.com/india/indian-armys-future-soldier-program-will-make-our-soldiers-the-most-feared-on-the-planet/

A country’s projection of power relies in large part upon its military capabilities. Successfully being able to project and wield that power is a key diplomatic asset. The army with the best soldiers prevails. While the American, Russian and Israeli soldier battle-gears are known around the world as the most advanced, the Indian Army’s two-phase ‘Future Soldier’ program, earlier known as F-INSAS (Future Infantry Soldier As A System), will make our soldiers the most fiercely equipped soldiers on the planet.

F-INSAS has been taken up to equip Indian infantry with advanced weaponry, communication network and instant access to information on the battlefield. This program is similar to the future soldier programs of other nations. F-INSAS includes a fully networked all-terrain, all-weather personal-equipment platform, enhanced firepower and mobility for the digitalised battlefield of the future. The weight carried by soldiers will need to be reduced by at least 50%.

The fully integrated Infantry of tomorrow will be equipped with mission-oriented equipment integrated with his buddy soldier team, the sub-unit, as also the overall C4ISTAR represents C4 (command, control, communications, computers) and ISTAR (intelligence, surveillance, target acquisition, and reconnaissance) system. The intention of this program is to equip the soldier to ensure a dramatic increase in his lethality, survivability and mobility while making the soldier “a self-contained fighting machine”
>>
The Indian Army has decided to divide the Future Infantry Soldier As a System (F-INSAS) program in favor of two separate projects. The new program will have two components – one arming the modern infantry soldier with the best available assault rifle, carbines and personal equipment such as the helmet and bulletproof vests and the second component is the Battlefield Management Systems (BMS). The bifurcation has been done on account of the budgetary convenience.

Under this, our ‘special forces’ commandos will be loaded with the world’s best under-barrel grenade launcher assault rifles, carbines and hand grenades. They will be protected with equipment such as non-flammable, waterproofed, hard ballistic protected and bulletproof helmets, visors and vests. The new attire will enable commandos to carry extra loads and resist the impact of nuclear, chemical, radiological, and biological warfare. The uniforms will also be fitted with external and internal oxygen supply, fire-proof knee and elbow pads and hand gloves and laser eye protection goggles.

Our commandos will be equipped with Palmtop GPS navigation devices, world’s most advanced satellite phones, Thermal Imager, Integrated Multifunction Sight Device Night Vision Equipment, Laser Range-Finder, Digital Magnetic Compass, Colour Charge-Coupled-Device (CCD) Camera, Integrated Electro-Optical Surveillance, Fire Control Systems and advanced GPS receivers. And he list of sensors our soldiers will be carrying is just mind blowing – infrared sensors, electro-optical sensors, thermal sensors, spectroscopic sensors, electromagnetic and radio frequency sensors. What’s even better is that this entire kickass technology is weatherproof and all-terrain tested.

The program strongly relies on the indigenous DRDO-led development of this technology with massive support from Israel. Once equipped with tech and advanced weaponry, ISF will be able to operate virtually in any and every sort of battle scenario.

Problem with Indian defense upgrades is that they are trying to improve their native defense companies while not asking for the tech on the western equipment they buy. So unless they do like Japan and Taiwan where they buy some of the tech and build the same tech but in smaller numbers(or build their own variant of the tech), they'll be spreading their companies too thin in development and will be forced to continue to buy foreign tech to make up for it, which in and of itself will continue to hamper Indian tech development until it starts to pick up pace.

FELIN is not just an improved FAMAS, it's a whole infantry overhaul program.
New uniform, armor, tactical vest with integrated links and batteries, helmet, optionnal glass visor, gloves, boots, NBC gear, Eotech sight, SWORD night vision optic (thermal for squad leaders and machine gunners) with a digital zoom, the ability to take pictures and show it to other connected soldiers, as well as a camera for remote shooting with direct feed on a tablet computer or eyepatch, bone conduction headset, indivudual radio and GPS, night vision goggles, snipers get an improved thermal optic with an integrated range finder.
There are also thermal binoculars with an integrated range finder, and one upgraded model for longer ranges, but not everyone in a squad gets those.
All infantry regiments are currently equipped with this

It'd definitely have some uses, very specific ones where you need holes quick and nasty somewhere. But I'm not sure if a couple of sandbags and C4 wouldn't do roughly the same thing and if there's one thing we had a lot of its C4 and sandbags... and a willingness to use C4!

I was thinking for quick overwatch positions out in the open prior to an attack
Sneak up somewhere high, set up a couple for SAW's out on the flanks, mortars, grenade launchers in the middle and then a whole row of them for some kind of fighting trench.

Course on rock and sand it'd be kind of useless, dunno about snow- but it always is.

"The Inuit didn’t fear the cold; they took advantage of it. During the 1950s the Canadian government forced the Inuit into settlements. A family from Arctic Bay told me this fantastic story of their grandfather who refused to go. The family, fearful for his life, took away all of his tools and all of his implements, thinking that would force him into the settlement. But instead, he just slipped out of an igloo on a cold Arctic night, pulled down his caribou and sealskin trousers, and defecated into his hand. As the feces began to freeze, he shaped it into the form of an implement. And when the blade started to take shape, he put a spray of saliva along the leading edge to sharpen it. That’s when what they call the “poo knife” took form. He used it to butcher a dog. Skinned the dog with it. Improvised a sled with the dog’s rib cage, and then, using the skin, he harnessed up an adjacent living dog. He put the poo knife in his belt and disappeared into the night."

>>30307201
Well you get the idea.
>>
>>30306403
why does it seem like a universal personal shaped charge would be effective for these explosive foxhole diggers, building breeching, and anti personnel/anti armor weapons

Something tells me that they'd rapidly stop using them for something as retarded as foxhole digging if they were tactically useful for other purposes, meaning they need to keep around shitty foxhole digger things so people don't hoard them for their more efficient uses.

AT mines with a shaped charge also need something to actually penetrate the armor. Usually that's a copper core. AP mines need shrapnel to cut flesh. Breaching often needs precise or weirdly shaped explosives, so plastic explosives are gret for that. So it's hard, if not impossible to make a universal shaped charge, because different purposes need different designs.

Foxholes aren't common anymore but if you really need one and the ground is frozen, I will promise you that you will appreciate this little device very much, if you don't have to spend several hours chipping away the rock solid ground with your tiny shovel.

By the way, this cone is filled only if you need to use it, so it's not dead weight, if you don't need foxholes. We have little TNT bags, which are one of the general purpose explosives and a couple of those fill this cone. Each use you mentioned has both dedicated and improvised solutions available.

And here in Finland you don't hoard anything. You are give what you need and that's it.

Nope.

It's an AIFV variant. They have ~300 of those.

I still think that we should've get the AIFV (or a platform based on AIFV) instead of Bradley; more capacity, better commonality with M113 (lowering the cost and logistical footprint) and it could do Bradley's job just as well

They also have an effective MAD system in place because of this. Nuking any city would incinerate millions of tons of poo, creating a radioactive curry-infused fecal ash cloud into the stratosphere. The survivors would commit suicide soon afterwards because it's now a designated shitting planet.

I have enormous respect for Indians *in america* (and britain). Smart, hard working people.

The businessmen in India can be razor-sharp, too. I love the country and the people.

But their military is shit. Corrupt, incompetent, inept. They simply don't have the procurement capability to even source this kind of product. Let alone the maintenance and training capability to actually use it if they got it. The money allocated will go into politically connected companies, reduced by an amount equal to the kickbacks that go to the politicians and military procurers.

India always brags about buying F-16s and F-15s, but then somehow a few years later ends up with more falling-apart MiGs instead. This won't be any different.
