300mki's ...... Interesting:..... So orders of 40 more is confirmed??? As for lca - work definitely needs to be sped up on the mk2 and big orders (200+) need to be made. Lca mk2 in large numbers will provide very stiff competition to the likes of j 10 and f 16blk52

so if news is true then we will have 312 mki's in total -- that huge!!!! Most probably these will be the upgraded ones with the irbis -e aesa, newer engines( 117s i think), newer irst(ols 35), tarang mk3, usage of composites in airframe, brahmos, nirbhay, better missiles(rvv sd or rvv ae pd...

Rest In Peace. We need to get rid of the mig 21s asap - speed up LCA work

forget the tender - just buy the S 1000 directly from the russians and italians - also this ship is supposed to be built by ficantieri and larsen and toubro making tech transfer that much easier( not sure of this - it shows larsen and toubro under builders on wiki). S1000 submarine class -...

who gave the right for nukes to india, pakistan, china, us, russia, france etc?? dumb question.......

yes..... thnx - its compact but it can also be used as a rifle, its indigenous, can accomodate modern optical sights- seems a very good option

maybe underpowered is the wrong word - but you cant deny that it could use a bit more thrust - maybe once the kaveri is is developed we will replace the m 88 with it as some reports seem to suggest or it could also be replaced by the m88-4 eco. maybe he has a personal favorite but the IAF should...

the rifle has to be developed indegenously- no way we can buy 3 million + rifles (including para and reserves)..... the kalantak or something( cant seem to remember the name) seems to me to be a very good option

from what i have read - the t 50 will be further developed into the fgfa just like the su 30 was developed into su 30mki.... Going by this logic india will probably start getting the pak fa while the fgfa is developed( 2015-16) and then mordenize the pak fa into the fgfa when the development of...

we do hold exercises with the israelis - in fact we have a pilot exchange program with them right now - meaning some lucky indian pilot is flying israeli f 16s as part of their air force and their pilot is flying our mig 29. india and israel had their first air exercise in 2005 and have...

nope before - after 2015 we will start getting mrca, pak fa, lca mk2 - all extremely good fighters...... its only now that the iaf has some problems in this department

mig 29smt too..... but yes you are right in that before 2015 we will have only these 3 fighters which could be considered advanced- just shows how important the mmrca and fgfa deals are to india

mig 29s should be participating- extremely good fighters and after upgradation we need to check their performance against other modern 4th gen fighters like f 15s and f 16s

depends on a lot of factors - not just specs. specs too are pretty divided - weapons - for a2a eft has a lot more variety (aim 120, iris t, asraam,sidewinder and in future meteor) while the rafale currently has only mica for both bvr and wvr and in future it will get the meteor. but in a2g the...

so does it mean that offsets have been finalized for both???

Winner of combat aircraft deal likely in 5-6 weeks: Naik -   Winner of combat aircraft deal likely in 5-6 weeks: Naik New Delhi, Jul 26 (PTI) Air Chief Marshal P V Naik today said the likely winner of the multi-billion dollar combat aircraft deal would be known in the "next five to six"...

i doubt whether a pilot will agree. From what i know when in combat, pilots fly on instincts which are honed over hundreds/thousands of hours of flying/training - there is no time to think..... And i doubt whether we can create a computer which reaches decisions faster than human reflex actions

ucav's will never replace air superiority planes-human instinct in fights can not be replaced. Ucav's will be used mainly for strikes and bombing missions - kinda like the predator drone . I dont think a ucav like taranis or neuron could defeat a manned 4.5 gen jet like eurofighter

there are brainless idiots all over the world and in every religion - just hoping it doesnt escalate or we might be seeing a splurge of communal violence all over the world
