Fighters or no fighters. Who would the AWACS be employed? India? Mynnmar? You cannot alone depend on the fighter aircraft for the protection of AWACS. I don't think the AWACS aircraft has any chance in a combat situation except for few minutes in air.

In an event of war this AWACS will be shot right out of the sky. Wouldn't it be better that Bangladesh seek some ground based radar systems?

Radiometric dating is just one method. I don't think radiometric dating was used to determine the age of rocks and sand in Adam's bridge shoal. It is absurd to say that there are 4000 years old rocks sitting on 7000 years old sand.

There are no C14 left Rock or Sand my friend. They occur in woods.

Carbon dating does not work on rocks and minerals.

I dunno how they deduced that the the rocks are 7000 years old and the sand is 4000 years old?

It is already a conservation zone in Sri Lanka. Not many people go in to the shoals. The biggest problem is of course from the fisherman. Though there is a navy detachment in Mannar island and they are overseeing the development in the area.

Their dowry is the Hambantota harbour.

Even though LTTE airpower were primitive at best. They were able to evade much sophisticated and some what modern Sri Lanka Air Force defenses. However, LTTE naval war crafts were made with commendable ingenuity. The had pioneered the art of suicide attacks and made considerable progress...

Could anyone provide a insight about how would DF-21 guidance system detect the aircraft carrier in a hostile environment with no tracking mechanism of their own?

For one, the carriers do not operate alone. They have dedicated anti-ship, anti-aircraft and anti-submarines deterrence readily available with them. Moreover, the carriers won't put them selves in a position that would provide them with disadvantage intentionally. IMHO the only nation which...

I assume that your reply is against the capability of the Chinese armed forces to destroy a US carrier fleet. However, isn't it possible to sink a carrier in a swarming attack by both aircraft and submarines? By aircraft I meant the long rage bombers not fighter planes. Would China have any...

Kohli’s Declaration a Sign of How Much Indian Cricket Ignores Medical Opinions https://thewire.in/201647/kohlis-declaration-sign-much-india-cricket-ignores-medical-opinions/ On Sunday, India chose to risk – as it is entitled to – bowling in unhealthy conditions but that does not afford the...

It was rather unprofessional of Kholi to not stand with Sri Lankan players. He has shown is smugness again. It is also Indian authorities' responsibility to check the condition of the environment before selecting venues. Our fools have no idea how to run a sports team. So it is useless to...

Thank you for providing a much needed insight. I always have been fascinated with the development of Singapore compared with Sri Lanka. But, I believe that the manufacturing you referred are about the Petrolatum products. However what we need to understand here is that without the Singapore...

Afgan war and Pakistan was different to Korean war and Japan. US didn't required any logistical support from Pakistan. US already had allies that would provide it for them without investing in Pakistan. The story of Singapore is also different. Singapore was already developed by the British...

Sri Lanka would have developed into a high income nation if it wasn't for the civil war. The war had dragged us back several decades and the valuable opportunities we had were all long gone. AFAIK Japan got developed because of the Korean war and the South Korea got developed because the...
