People keep harping on the 1000 crashed since blah blah times without realising that this figure has no consequence. Its accident rate/ 10,000 hrs that is the industry wide standard that needs to be compared. If we take that into account, IAF has a crash rate of around 1.4 which is acceptable...

Indian Air Force to reactivate airfield in Arunachal Pradesh tomorrow - The Times of India

Hafiz, look at the other 24 replies as well. Not one of them has blamed any of our neighbours. It is his opinion and he has the right to that. Majority thinks otherwise. For me, corruption. lack of education and mindset of people are concerns that affect growth of India. Let us see how we...

RIP to the pilot and condolences to his family and Sqn.

66% of the people of valley. My question is then, what about people of Jammu, People of Ladakh. Doesn't their opinion count as well? Or Pakistani members will want to ignore those regions simply because they are non Muslim majority areas? What about Kargil, Drass and Batalik? Also didn't the...

Too bad. Its politics i guess. India suffered the same at the hands of US during the 1971 war, when it had embargoes weapons to India but continued its supply to Pakistan. Every country will try and take steps that satisfies its interest. Sometimes its India at the receiving end and sometimes it...

You may know that Pakistani F-16's had war reserve spares, which were eaten into during the Kargil conflict. Most of the Pakistani F-16's clocked very few hrs. Also there are other ways to keep F-16's in the air, apart from Israel's help. Look at Iran. They still have F-4's and F-14's flying...

Yup.Looks like 65million was only for airframe and engines. Couple them with Avionics, Armaments, Self defence suites, life cycle cost and it will definitely shoot up 2-3 times that amount.

Ok. Since you quoted Al Jazeera, let me quote another article from the same source as yours. Pakistan: a state adrift - The 9/11 Decade - Al Jazeera English Now, I hope that you will not be selective in your approach and believe this article too. This will hopefully answer your questions...

True. Pakistan considers Kashmir in its entirety to be its own and so does India considers Kashmir in its entirety to be Indian Territory. In reality, its Indian Administered Kashmir and Pakistan Administered Kashmir.

Any significance for this post?? These cases are reported all across the world and not limited to India or Sri Lanka only. So I do not find any significance. OP can you justify?

India does not consider Kashmir to be a disputed territory hence according to India, Kashmir is in India.

Are these new airframes or converted IL-76's?

The article quotes one Indian politician innumerable times. My Question is, can the opinion of one Indian politician be taken as a trend in India? The article says that there is a bias against Muslims in India. It is true, no one is denying that. But it is not giving sources and looks like...

In India, due to its size and population, what ever happens, happens big. Not only violence, look at health issues as well. India is among top 10 is nearly every major index. Imagine India's population in a way that we have our biggest minority which is almost the size of Pakistan's population...

Pakistan does have secretarian violence, doesn't it. Between Shia's and Sunni's. See my point is not confined to inter-religion alone. Violence is violence. You cannot justify violence. What my point here is that those responsible for the crimes, little action have been taken. Like in...

After reading this thread, the title does sound misleading. APHC does not have the official mandate to represent people of J&K. The government there has. Its like what comes from Pak Kashmir government will be accepted version of events, rather than APHC. Btw APHC does not have a mass following...

Ok i do not know what is the significance of this thread, but I am a Hindu and I do not hate any muslims. I have many friends who follow islam and they too don't hate me because I am a Hindu. In India, Hindu Vs Muslim is a political stunt which political parties play for its vote bank. Simple.
