no , that is the kestrel Wheeled Armored Amphibious Platform , it has nothing to do with the FICV program which involves tracked vehicles only ,kestrel was designed by TATA and VRDE to cater mainly for COIN operations and maybe rear...

nemesis2u:
oh la la

got my eye on the left one

jakeporeshenko:
Nemesis2u, i did a quick google search, is this the vehicle you're referring to?

Henry240:


Indian metallurgy has to improve. Indian built ship's are nice, but thier land systems are mostly horrible.

Look at this vehicle, is this an IFV? The damn thing looks like an earthworm.

nemesis2u:


what has metallurgy to do here ?

i mean how can u judge the quality of metallurgy from photos

and for the nth time that is an APC not a IFV.

looks like a earthworm ?
have u laid eyes on a earthworm , aren't they suppose to be long and round , u got to keep searching for another appropriate analogy
to me a hedgehog analogy seems fit

Henry240:


No offence, the vehicle looks like an earthworm. It's great that India is trying hard to be self sufficient but aesthetically, your vehicles are so damn ugly.

The LIght Combat Helicopter, LCA and mainly your land systems. Nothing beautiful about these vehicles. You got to work on your aesthetics. From China, the JF-17, J-10, J-20, J-31, Z-10, Chinese land systems, Naval systems, gear are by far more beautiful than anything India can offer.

I understand the Chinese are atleast 30 - 40 years ahead of India, but they are your main rival.

If you want to secure sales, you guys need to make your vehicles more beautiful. It's already a tight market. Whether ergonomics or whatever, there are many countries offering better.


For example why would anyone want to go for the Kestrel when the VN-1 is available.

I'm trying to insult India or anything of such, I'm only airing my opinion. Which i believe you agree with.

nemesis2u:


my dear friend if i had taken offence i would not have even replied , infact i had a good laugh wondering how would a nigerian earthworm look like if i were to base it on the APC design

i am not a fan of aesthetics , i grew up a poor family and i learned the hard way that functionality gives u that the for money/opportunities etc.

insult india as much as u want except for the good people rest of them deserve it and i am not bothered , look at the threads here , do u see me going there , i go when i see u fellows (the guys i know) there , we meet once or twice i think when i followed u

anyways come on now ur putting worlds into my mouth
i seriously dont agree with u ,
please take a look at an earthworm at the earliest opportunity and refresh ur memory , ur most probably confusing the earthworm with ur d*ng

oh man! thats really funny

Henry240:


I'm glad you didn't take any offence.

I'm not talking about this vehicle specifically anymore, I meant generally. Indian equipment has to improve in terms of aesthetics. They could be the best in the world or the worst in terms of functionality, I don't know.


However what I do know is, the designs have to change. The ships and boats are nice, but land systems and aircrafts lots of improvements have to be made.

Just my opinion.

nemesis2u:




as aesthetic as the one below

as aesthetic as the one below

that is one good weapon, get her to do a hot bollywood dance in skimpy cloths before the enemy troops and i think all of them will surrender peacefully , that is if they dont kill each other in the first place

Henry240:


You edited your comment. So, I'm going with the previous question.


In other not to hurt your feelings, it is not an earthworm, what it is, is............... One of the ugliest APC's, I've seen in my life. And, I've seen alot of them.

nemesis2u:


now now the psychologist in me tells me that henry240 is in love over heels with the kestrel APC

dont deny it

love must not be suppressed with bitter words.

henry let go of ur true feelings

just take a deep breath and say "I LOVE U KESTREL APC"

Henry240:


Photoshop!

Henry240:


I don't. Wake up and smell the Indian tea.
