Didn't SAAB offer India a radar that can do that, to be used from helicopters for counter terrorism??

There's no way Russia russia will lease you ballistic missiles. Multiple MTCR signatories have violated the treaty and exported missiles with ranges far greater than 300km. The french for the UAE for example. I wouldn't be surprised if your Brahmos and Klub missiles actually have ranges...

No that's the first prototype after it was painted. The second prototype is unpainted. After looking at the pictures again I think you are right though, its still a two piece canopy. We will probably see the single piece canopy in the production variant or it just won't have one, which isnt that...

Does anyone have a larger picture of the canopy, because it looks like it has a single piece canopy now. That's a photoshopped picture. Its was proven fake months and months ago.

Is there a figure on how much the proposed weapons pod for the SH weighs?? Its probably a decent amount. Is the centerline pylon on the JF-17 capable of handling a weapons pod of this size?? The pod looks like it has a pretty big limitation on it. There's no way those bay door open up fully when...

That's odd that India would want to develop the missile based off an older (taller and heavier) design and the russians wanted it designed off of the newer missile. Seems like India modernized the missile completely and added additional capabilities. That being said it probably still has a range...

Do people still really believe that the Brahmos' range falls within the MTCR limits, b/c a 300 km hypersonic missile doesn't sound that useful. An Air-to-ground variant yes, but 300 km range for the Navy is kind useless.

New tech can definelty be integrated into the MKI ( new IRST, Missiles, Radar etc). The problem is that the internal weapons bay is going to partially ruin the MKI's aerodynamics. The reason the layout of the MKI is like that, same with PAK-FA is that the design generates a lot of lift for the...

If the total number is close to 260 and two vendors are chosen then the F-18 and Gripen would be the smartest bet.

The $11 Billion is most likely the price if ALL options are exercised in the tender. Just like India had an option for 3 more scorpenes, the same will probably apply to this tender. I would assume that is the case, it most likely also includes a large Transfer of Technology requirement. If...

India won't be able to contribute anything to the program as most of the development is already completed, but India could purchase a significant amount. If you include the Air force along with the Navy India could have the largest F-35 fleet outside the US. But then again maintaining 3 5-Gen...

Where exactly did the bomb explode? At the passenger pick-up area?

LOL the SATAN is an old missile which has been upgraded a couple of times, the last of which was in the early 90's. Even though its old its still one of the best ICBM's on the planet. No way in hell Russia will give the tech to anyone, especially China.

Which is just another point against it when compared to the Super Hornet and the Typhoon. It could be one of the factors that causes it to loose the competition.

The article is worthless, Russia is already in the process of creating a new long range ICBM, work began on the new ICBM more than a year ago.  Ðîññèè ñîçäàåòñÿ íîâåéøàÿ ìåæêîíòèíåíòàëüíàÿ áàëëèñòè÷åñêàÿ ðàêåòà - ÂÏÊ.name Satan ICBM's are arguably the deadliest in the world, our ABM...

Ïàòåíò íà èçîáðåòåíèå ¹2383760 Here's the link to the patent for the nozzles. The video shows what it would look like integrated into the plane. Its pretty obvious that it won't be used the patent isn't classified and is available through open sources. The biggest clue is that its supposed...

PAK-FA won't be fitted with those engines though or even a derivative of them. Link to dismissed finished PAK-FA design w/ 2-D flat nozzles. It won't look like this in the end, pity it looked great. http://www.youtube.com/v/dWkQRPzYrlQ&hl=en_US&feature=player_embedded&version=3

Hitting moving targets at sea is going to be a challenge for the missile. Getting past the aegis system is going to be even harder. If the missile is based off the DF-21 then it has only one warhead right?? Even with the penetration aids I'm sure the aegis destroyers could deal with it. Now if...

Well its called freedom of speech and SNL can say whatever they want to. SNL has done much worse and they never get in trouble. They are just making a harmless joke, they didn't do it to offend anyone. People just need to chill and realize they are just joking.

The T-50 has a single piece canopy like the F-22 in development. Also, remember just b/c the J-20 has a single piece doesn't mean that a whole lot, who knows how well it will work out. Also the Russians most likely will have something better. Like you said the T-50-1 is a prototype, its just...
