Absolutely yes if time permits ie distance from taget is still more.this part of MARV only apart from this other countermeasures can be chaff ,flares and many other things.Hope this helps and no it is certainly not dumb, that is what we are here for learning from each other.
I guess MAITRI is also ready to be signed and dont forget the nuclear deals.France will have its biggest customer in India.It will overshadow everything else
Both offensive and defensive missiles will keep on getting upgraded.In some previos thread I had noted that this will start an arms race and would bankrupt the smaller economy.It is better for countries to do joint ventures to lower costs.
The pakistanis can always buy from china, after all it is top class no?
No stealing of technology/reverse engineering has been done etc. Also it is cheap. why complain?
We are ever willing to co-operate with china provided that whole of kashmir is given to us and tibet is given its freedom.Good for peace.BTW we dont want any third party mediation. Some people never learn.
India has these systems I guess Chinese will be able to close gap with India in the ABM department whereas India willl try to do the same in other departments of missiles where it is lagging China.Good for both of our countries .Bad for the so called 'Hyper power' US.
A very good start apart fom the countries that I mentioned the SCO and CAS can be integrated into something like a G-x which will send a loud message to america and then maybe lead on to bigger things.I am confident if US goes out of the picture all problems will settle in 6 months flat.Anyway...
Nobody lagged except for the leaders who are willing to eat every crumb thrown at them.Russia is a pale shadow of its self.china is battling with regards to their economy.Indian politicos are mindlessly kowtowing to american policies.Japan is their rent boy.Pakistani leaders have sold themselves...
We can settle all disputes in our own ways having countries like china, india, russia, japan,pakistan,afghaistan, in a far more constructive and mature way.Alas it is a pipe dream since america has got a finger in every pie.
All countries are investing in anti-stealth tecnology but offensive weapons have to be purchased.Something like choosing between tank and ATGM wont work.Both are needed.
Most probaly china would have made theirs so india now wants them.
Old tactic of GOI is shout PAKISTAN IS GETTING IT and then buy and then pakisyan also buys and so on and so forth.
