Adani Defence bags 5-year AK-203 ammunition deal
Adani Defence & Aerospace has entered into a five-year agreement with Indo-Russian Rifles Private Limited (IRRPL) to provide indigenously produced 7.62x39 mm ammunition for AK-203 assault rifles being manufactured in India. This marks the establishment of a domestic supply chain for the India-Russia rifle programme. Adani Defence will deliver the small-calibre ammunition required for the AK-203 programme over the five-year period, ensuring a steady supply of ammunition through the contract term.
This collaboration brings together two significant aspects of the AK-203 programme within India's defence manufacturing ecosystem, with rifle production by IRRPL and ammunition manufacturing by Adani Defence.
