so whats the big deal??? There is a financial crisis going on..... Even china's manufacturing has slowed - combine that fact with high inflation and high interest rates then growth rate is bound to go down. Not much India can do about the european crisis but we have to control inflation -...

Broadsword: T-90 tank: Technology transfer, supply of assemblies hit Russian stonewall if you are reffering to this article then it states clearly that 150 T-90s have been produced in India - considering that production started in late 2009 then we have produced 150 tanks in 2 years that's a...

there is production going on and has been for more than 2 years. Russians had initially refused to provide us with certain materials but when we developed them on our own they gave them to us, thereby abiding by the contracts( only delayed). Spare parts for the T90 are also no major concern now...

If you act without thinking about repercussions you are being stupid. simple as that. Its a bad situation for you guys - you dont have any good options available - dont make it worse for you. As to why you have a military - a military is supposed to be first and foremost a deterrent - if a...

So according to you Pakistan should kill 280 NATO soldiers?? You'll lose at least as many of your own soldiers in the operation and at the end of it - what will you gain?? All aid from the US will stop - All up gradation of your F-16s will stop and your f 16s will become unusable, No more P3s or...

first of all - this article is an example of extremely bad journalism - nag is a vehicle/helicpter mounted atgm and is already in production( 443 missiles have already been ordered and the order is likely to grow). We wanted the javelin because 1. Its the best out there. 2. Its man portable -...

Yes there were some problems with the t-90 procurements and while it is easy to blame the russians it is also the indian govt which is responsible to some extent - i mean - ' fool me once - shame on you, fool me twice- shame on me'. Anyways despite all these problems ( or rather because of...

Why is this tender different from the earlier one of 16?? couldnt we just add 16 more to this one?? Both the tenders are for multi role naval choppers and will probably have the same competitors.

not gonna happen...... He's the only ally US has in that country and the people of bahrain love him ( the protests were mainly against the Prime Minister not the King )

Well no source obviously but an educated guess would be of around 350-400km, considering the radar will be more advanced than the Zhuk A( or they would just use it) - the Zhuk A on the mig 35's small nose has a range of 200km - in Pak fa's large nose range would be increased to 300km and since...

There was news earlier of an NERA to be added on mk2 as well.... any news on that front??

Good news for me (and other NRIs)

some people always want to live in the past and refuse all opportunities of development...... we have them in india as well protesting against construction of power plants, dams etc

The APG can engage multiple enemies..... so it wont be the first shot - it will be 8 shots at 8 targets

they may have the same thrust but the al 31f was introduced in 1981 while the al 31fp was introduced in 2000 - there may very well be improvements in life cycle costs , flying hours etc. according to all specs I could find the climb rate of both is nearly the same (300m/s) as is the thrust to...

Its hard to be sure about the specs - most sources claim that it currently uses some russian equipment which will be replaced by chinese equipment soon - since it's hard to find reliable sources for performance specs of chinese equipment my analysis takes into account russian equipment only...

those look like mig 29s, not su 30mks - we returned all of those long back.

Also it cant be used as an air superiority fighter - it has only 4 internal pylons , translating to 2 BVR missiles and 2 WVR missiles. if you put extra missiles on external stores, you are compromising stealth and if you dont then you dont have enough missiles to be a threat to anyone. No air...

there are two upgrade programs for the su 30 - one is the brahmos upgrade which will be applied to only 42 while the other is the super 30 which will be applied to all the sukhois

Get your facts right , USSR never operated a super carrier.
