This is international politics. Myanmar has been expanding its relationship with China, and has even ordered the JF-17 which allows Pakistan to make an entry on India's eastern borders. So India is now raising the Rohingya issue to pressurize Myanmar.

How much money does a coat of paint cost? This is a non-issue. I don't think that is the case in America. The USAF has a huge fleet of different trainer planes, from basic T-6 to the T-38 which is a supersonic trainer jet that provides LIFT experience to the pilots. So the USAF pilots...

I wonder what he thinks of Partition now that he is being hunted by Hindu India for being a Muslim.

It doesn't say that he has actually scored a win? He has started an effort to change the labor laws, but nothing is final as yet. He could just as well get shot down in a ball of fire.

hahaha! When is India going to develop a jet that it can use for its own defense?? Every project is a learning exercise! Or it starts off as a weapons system but then gets converted into a commercial subsidy and a university science fair!

It catches your BULLSHIT about "indigenous" SU-30 production. What is the point of making struff from "scratch" when you can't keep them flying without foreign help.

Of course we prefer JVs. It is better to know one's capabilities and plan accordingly. What was the great benefit of the LCA Tejas? India has spent more than $2 billion on its development, while Pakistan has invested only $250 million. The JF-17 is in service, while the LCA Tejas has been...

And yet the SU-30 fleet is marred by low serviceability because India cannot import the spare parts to keep them flying. I wonder WHAT is it that the India is producing locally if it cannot even maintain the planes! All of these are just false claims by Indians...

And how many Tejas have been inducted to replace the Mig-21 and Mig-27? The IAF still flies those antique planes, while the PAF has inducted more than 90 JF-17 jets. Not just that, but the IAF now has been forced to float a second tender for 200 license built jets worth more than $12 billion...

The good thing about us is that we don't day dream, and then walk over a cliff like India. Pakistan partnered in the projects and all of them succeeded. http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/china/k-8-dev.htm

Neither does India with the LCA Tejas. http://www.defenseworld.net/news/13792/Cobham_Delivers_New_Quartz_Radome__In_Flight_Refueling_Probe_For_India___s_Tejas Haha. Yeah, and failed to learn enough to build a second one. Just like the India failed with the HF-24 Marut and is still passing off...

We are also the development partner in the K-8 Karakorum, which is a very successful program. Meanwhile, India has also bungled up the HJT-36 trainer, and has had to license produce the BAE Hawk trainer. They can't even build a simple trainer jet.

Haha. The world doesn't revolve around the IAF either. While the PAF has never claimed the JF-17 or K-8 Karakorum to be indigenous, but they have now as much local content as the LCA Tejas. However, unlike the LCA Tejas and the HJT-36 Sitara, both Pakistani planes are in service, have achieved...

Hahaha. This IAF is an actual comedy of blunders and incompetence. They have rejected the Indian LCA Tejas because it doesn't meet their requirements, and now they are discouraging the Russian jet under the argument that they prefer an indigenous Indian plane? All of it seems to be a drama to...

Don't make me laugh. You can't even make a basic trainer WITH external help. Where is the HJT-36 Sitara? http://www.janes.com/article/68386/india-s-hjt-36-sitara-remains-unfit-for-use-as-intermediate-jet-trainer

This is the power of marketing. Modi presents himself as a great reformer and has only blundered so far, but the Indian public loves him. It is exactly the same in Pakistan, with Imran Khan being considered a messiah but having contributed only instability to the country. This is what happens...

has bribery ended in India compared to 6 months back? this thread confirms India is still the most corrupt country.

haha. Modi made these allegations at the BRICS summit in Goa last time, and he got utterly humiliated by being completely ignored by all other participants. I don't think China would be worried about this.

Unabashed day dreaming.
