India's Game-Changer in Close Quarter Combat: Army To Get New CQB Carbine Developed By DRDO

Описание: India has taken a major leap in self-reliant defense manufacturing with DRDO’s Armament Research and Development Establishment (ARDE) successfully developing a Close Quarter Battle (CQB) Carbine, fully designed and made in India. This lightweight, highly accurate, and compact weapon is ideal for urban warfare and counter-terror ops, featuring the unique ability to fire both NATO and INSAS ammunition. With an effective range of 200 meters and pinpoint accuracy (90% hits within 15x15 cm at 100m), this 5.56x45mm calibre carbine is poised to replace the older Sterling 9mm models. The Indian Army is expected to order over 4 lakh units, and Bharat Forge has bagged the L1 status in the supply tender, potentially worth ₹2,000 crore. This weapon represents more than firepower—it’s a symbol of India's rising strength in indigenous defense tech under the Atmanirbhar Bharat mission.
