OFB awaits field-trials of its ECWCS samples by Army

The ECWCS will help the soldiers beat the extreme sub-zero temperature in coming months. The government owned Kolkata-based defence manufacturer, the OFB, has completed modifications on the ECWCS samples as suggested by the Army and is now awaiting field trials.

Corporatisation vital to make OFB productive

In a counter press release, the OFB stated, “for the accidents which occurred between Jan 2015 to Dec 2019, where defect investigation has been completed, only 19 per cent of cases are attributable to the OFB.”
