South Korea's Hanwha Aerospace is planning to participate in some of the Indian Army's most ambitious programmes to procure capabilities including Futuristic Infantry Combat Vehicles (FICVs) and light tanks.

A Hanwha Aerospace spokesperson told Janes that the company plans to offer its Redback and K21 infantry fighting vehicles (IFVs) to fulfil the Indian Army's FICV requirement.

The Indian Army seeks to replace its ageing fleet of 2,500 Soviet Union-era BMP-1 and BMP-2 ICVs under the FICV programme. The government approved the FICV procurement in February.

The Redback's armament includes a 30 mm machine gun, a 7.62 mm co-axial gun, anti-tank guided missiles (ATGMs), and a remote-controlled weapon station, the spokesperson said.

“It is protected by the configurable armour and active protection system. Situational awareness using the see-through armour technology and team-integrated battle management system has been applied to this combat system.”
