In a major breakthrough for Indian small arms company SSS Defence, it has bagged multiple contracts with the Indian Army for its T-12 semi-automatic shotguns, delivery of which is set to begin next month.
“We are happy to tell you that deliveries of our shotguns to the Indian Army will begin next month,” Vivek Krishnan, CEO of SSS Defence told ThePrint in an interview in the national capital.
Asked if the procurement was by Army Headquarters or individual units, he said various Army units are procuring it besides two directorates.
This is the first time the Indian Army will be using a product of the SSS Defence, which has emerged as India’s only homegrown brand in small arms across the spectrum.
Incidentally, SSS Defence has already exported its sniper rifles and is close to bagging more foreign orders for both its sniper and shotgun models.
