Mahindra vehicles are looking very compact for light special mission with better protection

They took 2 years to deliver a whopping number of 3 vehicles to the army. Making armored vehicles is not complex as fighter jets. Mahindra better get their delivery speed up from now on.
They will probably or delivering 1,300 units will take them forever

Same issue with Kestrel/WhAP and QRFV, piecemeal deliveries of 5-10 vehicles till now. China can probably churn out 100 such vehicles in a single day.

Apparently all 1300 ASLVs are to be delivered by 2025, no way they can deliver 650+ vehicles per year.

Yea but it's Mahindra they do have the capacity to curn out these easily and complete the delivery by 2025 but seems like it will be atleast a year delayed hopefully I am proven wrong

Nah lmao
No one can make 100 IFVs a day, few hundreds per year at best.

since this is bespoke manufacturing for the moment, it's taking time. as long as their vendors supply their sub-assembly components on time, assembly should not be an issue.

their mahindra scorpio assembly line outputs 700 units per day, that's because it is a market oriented product with supply chain in place.

Normally setting up a production line with the proper tooling takes 1-2 years from the date on which the contract is awarded.
Its likely the case that Mahindra Defence did not have a proper production line in place to bulk produce these Mahindra ALSV when the contract was awarded to them, also they had to cater to UNPKF orders.
Its the same as fighter jet contracts where the first jet is delivered 36 months after contract signing.
