We should all bow to moral fibre for having accomplished something we all thought is impossible.

If at all, the H1 joins the Indian forces, after a period of their usage, these vehicles would come for sale in an auction at "Heavy Vehicle Factory" which is present in Chennai. i think i would be the first guy to bid for them at the auctions....Anyone wanna join ?

Hi, Now that we have finally seen a Hummer on Indian roads, it sounds right to post a pictures of Hummer with an Indian at its wheel

Ooooo Maaan!! What a sighting dude! When you had said (or may be someone else... i dont remember) that an H1 was spotted at Pune being tested for the Indian Army, i thought that it just might be the same one that visited Mumbai & Delhi recently ..... but no this one is different, tits special its in teh Military Colours ..... OMG Awesome sigting dude ..... Hats off!

On the contrary its a shame that we have to rely on imports for our military. After 58 years of independance, we cant make a totally indegounous plane, leave alone jeeps!

aseem dude.....most of us in india drive cars that are made by companies which are originally from other countries....and we rely on these machines in our evryday life...for travelling, safetwise etc....why? because they have and use proven technology from all over the world.....their machines are tested and retested!!! so if the indian military decides to use humvees in their fleet am more than sure that it will anyday perform betta than the jeeps we have now!!!!!!

There is something called survival of the fittest......faced with armys of china and pakistan, if india decides to mordenise it's army and equipments used by it then what's harm in that.....???....Hummers have been battle proved in many parts of the globe so induction of these vehicals in our army will only strengthen its capability.
