There are two ways to look at the scenario. 1) America dropped the ball in Afghanistan and is now distracted trying to strategically thwart China's influence 2) America was distracted by the war on terror followed by Iraq for about a decade allowing China to grow unrestrained with no strong US...

A rare candid post. Makes for a good read as far as point of view is concerned. But to be honest China's success was brought about by the huge influx of foreign investment following the second set of reforms and pushed further by it's willingness to be the world's manufacturing hub. The factors...

That's not possible. Even the so called "private companies" in China are owned by the state or state players. Figures indicating private sector in China is an eyewash. But it'll be interesting to know what the percentages are. Do you have any figures?

I am sure this is going straight into the list of marketing and banding disasters. The content, tone and timing of the ad is really really bad. Has done more damage than good for Pakistan. Besides, it looks from the tone of the article like there is very little value(if any) placed on Pakistani...

This most likely won't be for the IAF. It's to train civilian pilots in India.There is a dearth of infrastructure in India as far as training in Civil aviation goes.

By Hazel R. O'Leary and Daryl G. Kimball September 14, 2011 More than 100 government leaders from around the globe will meet this month at the United Nations to discuss the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty, an international accord whose goal is to make the world safer by stemming the spread of...

My mistake folks. Appropriately edited.

I have mentioned this before in a few threads. RCS avoids radar detection. IR detects engines signature. Modifying the nozzles enables an aircraft to reduce IR signature significantly. Su30MKI already has this modification and further upgrades are expected. ---------- Post added at 03:31 PM...

Am torn between right to creative freedom and the responsibility of film makers to not misrepresent facts in a movie. To be honest I'd rather see a sequence showcasing the actual abilities of a fighter than an exaggerated/misrepresented movie version. But from a film maker's point of view, the...

ok..thanks for the heads up. Trying something else Done

Hi, Caught pics of the IL and Dhruv flying over HAL. AM not too great at editing pics, but have clicked them using an SLR. Should not pixelate upon cropping. If someone here could do it and repost it would be great. IL Landing sequence

Hey buddy. Didn't log in over the weekend. Too late to reply now. Perhaps next time.

You obviously don't know the natural ingredient market very well. When they say Herbalthey don't mean Ayurvedic only. They mean plant derived. It's currently the fastest growing sector in the world. And the R&D money spent is miniscule compared to the money they make off the technology transfer...

Like I mentioned in a previous post, these are off shoots of projects that have military applications. When a commercial applicationis detected, it is made and sold off to a private entity as part of the technology transfer.How does it help DRDO research for Defence projects? Funds from the tech...

I'm not denying China has a better nuclear arsenal than India. But not Signing the NPT means India is not a recognized Nuclear Weapons state? What kind of logic is that?? If you have an arsenal of nuclear warheads you are a nuclear weapons state,period.

The PAK FA was conceptualized long before the J-20. But it was revived the same time as the initiation of the J-20. Russia has delayed delivery of equipment that have been bought after being refurbished to the point where it defies logic. But they have been meeting the delivery dates of new...

Military technologies the world over tend to give us commercial applications we never imagine to be related to the military. Not many people know that there is a seperate department in DRDO researching a lot of applications to make day to day life of a soldier easier. This tends to spin off...

Yeah..I came across a new terminology in one of the blogs of some armchair general. He referred to planes like Su 35 and Super Sukhoi as generation 5- indicating that they are more advanced than 4.5+ gen aircraft and close but not quite 5th gen aircraft.

Came across an interesting blog about this. Gandhi’s Last Stand. ---------- Post added at 09:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:55 AM ---------- Your posts are getting rather distasteful. For the sake of spreading the right information around am posting this link. The...

Last time I checked, Assamese were Indians. Where do you guys come from?
