Delta design faces very less drag compared to the conventional design. The reason for bleeding energy is because of the larger surface area of the wings. The Delta has superior climb performance compared to the conventional design and hence the Delta wing planeform fighters usually try to...

It has been 'tested' till 7G eventhough the full flight envelope was not opened. This shows the confidence of the makers of this aircraft. World over 5G itself is not reached by aircrafts till IOC. And you are confused between Sitara and Tejas.

There is nothing a Walther P90 cant solve.

I still think that the deal is good because it opened access to all the other countries nuclear materials and reactor designs. The US are a finding it hard to digest that they couldnt even land even a single deal in India after helping us get the waiver. The French, Russians and Japanese have...

LCA does not have the range nor the payload capacity of the Rafale. And in the present scenario Indian planners need an MMRCA to take on the role of MiG 27s and Jaguars which are relics still serving in our airforce. LCA cannot fill in the gaps of these fighters. It is primarily an interceptor...

Looks more like the C 27 to me or the C 160 am not sure.

The Mirage 2000 upgrade and the Mig 29 UPG models have the latest Topsight HMCS. The LCA right now is inducted and is waiting for the FOC. So I guess the LCA is the valid post as it's Initial operation is cleared. The Sea Harriers use the Dash III helmet mounted display system.

Not worth my time.

You are still confused between the two derivatives of the RIM 174. One is an ABM and the other is a Missile defence system. And the CM-400 is not a new system and is based on the Kh 15 Raduga which is a very old concept. The missile is modern but the concept has existed for a very long time. I...

And thus cementing that INS Karwar is a more important requirement for the navy.

With those long bridges it is not going to be much of a threat. It is a very well executed infrastructure project.

Yes it works for a stable ground target...but the AC is a moving target and the seeker parameters are a bit different.

In Chennai I dont see any Chinese products being used nowadays. Even the electronic store guys say that they have a hard time pushing Haier goods.

Well you need to understand that some of those aircrafts were destroyed by terrorists on ground. IAF uses the Martel and the Krypton...so we are as good as you in the ARM field Yeah cruise missile is a field that we lack in...but we might catch up sooner or later BTW we also have Datalink II...

Do you even know how much processed Galium Nitride and Galium Arsenide costs? It is not 'Less costly' to maintain. It is more reliable and that is all.

No the production has stopped for now. Will resume after the block II aircraft rolls out.

B. Harry's page in Vayusena has not been updated. Yes the telemetry instruments were removed but the size of the aircraft and extra avionics were added to it after PV2 So I think there is going to be compensation of any weight reduction done. And we must not forget the inclusion of the Radar also.

The only problem faced was the inability of any other chopper to carry a decent load to Leh or the Siachen FOB. This is the only helicopter that could before the Dhruv arrived but we are still stuck with a large brand new fleet of Cheetahs and Chetaks. So why not modify and use them or gift...

They have already been tested and integrated into the Mark 1. But they need to udergo acceptance tests in Mark 2 for sure. The Litening III is going to be the main LDP. The Paveway kits have already been tested. The ECM suite has been tested on ground and recently in the air. The remaining...
