This also implies that there is much more than what the USN tells us, doesn't it? Stop name-calling people if you disagree with them.

Sorry to nit-pick, but please go through the discussion following the article and you'll realize how overhyped this "AShBM" is.

Any news on the size of this field?

Perhaps 1971 shall remind you as to who was soliciting Uncle Sam. Further, currently we share the same interests as the US. Who wants to occupy China? We ain't kissing US' ***; our interests converge and hence we have teamed up. Why is the PRC jealous? The current situation in Iraq ain't...

It is not the GoI that is developing the land; it is the religious body in charge. I'm certain that the religious body in concern herein does comprise of Kashmiri Hindus. This issue has been blown out of proportion for petty political gains.

Gee... I wonder if there would have been such protests if an Indian Muslim body would have been given the land? I also wonder what Israel has to do with all this? My family members have been to that shrine; one thing they and every one who has ever been there notices that there is a...

Quiet a racist post, don't you think? Tibet has never been a part of India. Tibet has been an indepoendent country different from China. China invaded Tibet.

I agree with you 100%. Indians despise Nehru, and rightfully so, for the 1962 debacle. But most forget his role in creating an independent judiciary and not-interested-in-politics military by ensuring that the generals stay under the babus.

Its not politics anymore... its personal... MMS would go to any length to get this deal passed. The Congress and Gandhis will toe his line. I'm wondering what the BJP will do; they are giving mixed signals.

I've to say one thing, our PM and Mrs. Gandhi both are fully aware of the implications of not signing this deal. My hunch is they'll go ahead with it and risk early elections as the Left will pull out.

Is it me or does anybody else also see a high-IQ guerilla war?

What about this: TURBOMECA - Safran Group I'm all okay with criticism of India's products that do not work. You haven't criticized; you simply went on all guns blazing without even making your points clear. Your criticism was more wishful than factual. As far as swarming goes, everybody has...

Who's saying the Dhruv is the king of the ring? Gee... hit the nerve, didn't we? Who wants to score points? We post here because this forum is unbiased; I don't give a rattlesnake's arse whether it is Pakistani, Ugandan, American or Martian. Isn't that likely to be a perception? You...

Dude, what is with you and Indians? If the PLAN goes ahead with an aircraft carrier excpect every Pacific navy to make a hue and cry so as to "cash in" on the euphoria. You cannot hide the making of an aircraft carrier. Everybody knows how good the Sino-Russian relationship is. Moscow is...

Link please. J-11 equivalent to the F-18; you kidding right? An F-35-level aircraft? More speculation on your part.

All this is speculation. PRC has bought two Su-33s for "evaluation;" this implies that they are copying it as we are posting. The picture you have posted says nothing about the PLAN's AC programme. Basically, what you have said is nothing but speculation.

Good news indeed...

A few things: 1) Link please. 2) If the PLAN is indeed constructing three carriers, it would have been detected via satellites. 3) Operating a carrier isn't a joke; one needs a comprehensive flotilla to protect the mother-ship. One also needs doctrines, officers, and protocols to...

This is really bad news. What if Peshawar actually falls?
