The main problem of adding India - is restriction of domestic British vehicles.

“why you ask more interesting vehicles at that br, look u have a lot of Russian C+P vehicles under Indian flag, why silly UK mains always want more?”

It’s too short range I think. 5km range if I’m correct, less than manpad

the only thing there we could actually use is the light tank and even then things like Ajax, and the CTA-40 Boxer fulfil the first one, EFT can easily fulfil the second role and the 3rd one we have our own modernizations that we could receive

yeah thats my concern, also not to mention most indian tanks , planes are probably gonna be down grades (look at an Indian OSA for example)

No, Rapier Mk1 has 7km range, Mk 2 ~8km

The effective max range is 7km, and, even though it’s less than that of the Osa, it doesn’t matter as the Osa should never touch the British tree.

CT-40 boxer isnt a thing yet beyond a not really working prototype system is it and I believe all the guns are being/have been sold off? Heck I dont even know if it was even a viably looked at idea.

Then it’s fine enough, not everything should be matched, as long as there is no big gap.

How about Rapier 2000, though it’s a trailer

I mean the ajax is rated for like 2030 if we are lucky so err, yeah, no actual British IFV yet mate.

Never heard of it. Can you link an article or something like that about it?

Yes, the prototype looks nice on paper, but it isnt actually going into production and was a consideration, which from what I have heard had a fair few issues like the Warrior did with the turret.

Ignoring the dozens of others.
