Kamerad learn to@look beyond the obvious. Look at the weapon system being inspected. It’s a 11 kg mk4 84 mm Carl Gustav jugaad mounted on a mounting designed to mount a 200 kg 106mm RCL gun. By inference that indicates that despite there being a need to have a https://twitter.com/somnath1978/status/1325787708174725121

Mount for the CG, @adgpi has not been able to facilitate design, manufacture and induction of a light weight tripod for mounting the CG.
It is also indicative of a lack of functional feed loop, wherein an operational need is not getting resolved in a reasonable time frame

thereby compelling people to do jugaad. Can do better.
We have been holding the LOC for over 70 years with its cross firing etc. No other country has to deal with such a unique situation. Yet, @adgpi we have failed to design, manufacture and deploy wpn sys which are tailor made

For the attrition warfare that is waged on LOC on a daily basis. Unfortunately, we have been attuned to the foreign wpn supplier telling us what we need on the LOC; be it the Israeli, the English the Russian, or the American. Only Chinese for some reason have not been

Incorporated. Does not bode well for our intellect and application. We are thus forced to use an 20 lakh Konkors ATGM or an even@more expensive SPIKE or such like things, to take out a simple bunker. How many konkors can we use. There are equally effective high velocity

Weapon systems which can be fielded. We phased out the 106 mm RCL. It was an excellent bunker buster upto 2K. It Carried the weight of shell. Instead on mordernising it with LRF ni vision and better sights , we phased it out. And now we mount a 400 m CG on the mounting

Coz there is a felt need for a powerful towed direct firing weapon system. BTW PLAGF still fields 120 mm tripod mounted RCL system as it bn/ coy wpn.
So we must incentivise out of the box thinking. Cut ourselves off from the apron strings of the wpn sellers. Decide to do things

Our way and in a better and more cost effective manner. Till we let go, we will never develop the faith and confidence in ourselves for manufacturing our own swords from on our own forges.
