Please share depot sample access process, defence part drawing/spec for K3/KND/NIV/BK-4, and whether length 198 cm and thickness 10.2 cm are mandatory absolute values or nominal.
For the mandatory lab test certificate ≤3 months old, which exact tests/standard methods against which defence specification must be reported, and must the tested sample be the offered production lot construction?
Does the 30-day delivery period include advance-sample approval time, transit to Kamrup, and Board of Officers/post-receipt acceptance, and will DP be re-fixed without LD for buyer-side sample delay as stated?
