The L band IFF has a 500km range at sides (250km at front & back). DRDO’s Active Array Antenna Unit (AAAU) or the Primary radar is designed to have a range of 200 kms for 2 sqm target as per the OR by the IAF. In international comparison table it translates to 5 sq meters target...

Been following his "trishul" blog since quite a long time. Once in a while he lands a correct article, but mostly it is an ingenious mix of fact and fiction. Not to mention heavy amount of "borrowed" material he pedals! Not a reliable guy for me and many others. I was referring to her...

While it has lead you to a correct conclusion in this case, you would be well advised not to consider Mr. Sengupta as a reliable reference. He is not a dependable guy when it comes to Indian defence. We asked the same question (though we did not mention the blister) after that session. It...

First of all, mate none of the above planes you mentioned can match the old MiG 21 in airshow performance! So, why go for JF when you have the MiG 21? ;) Also, 40 million is the cost of the mk2 with GE 414, MMR with israeli backend, advanced avionics, OBOGS etc. Not your vanilla old f16...

A few images more courtesy Chacojoseph @ BR. This is one amazing looking bird!:enjoy: That side blister which was a source of much speculation here can be seen clearly. It is quite large indeed.

Official release from Embraer. Embraer rolls out first EMB 145 AEW&C for India Embraer presented the first of three EMB 145 Airborne Early Warning and Control (AEW&C) platforms, today, to representatives of the Indian government at a ceremony held at its headquarters in São José dos...

An ICC official admitting to match fixing before the media and nobody has raised a single question?:eek: Except, our intrepid detective AJTR, off course!:woot: You need to be on the vigilance comittee of the ICC, gal!:rofl: On a serious note, check out whether doctoring the...

Yeah, sure! Thank you for your "valuable" participation! :whistle:

I'm a paediatrician (M.D.), currently studying for a degree in aeronautical engineering. I've been into aero modelling since last 12 years.

CGI rendering of AMCA. Calling Pandora ji, when will we have one from you?

The pleasure is mine,brother. It's always nice to find people who are interested in genuine technical discussions and not political ones! :) Regards, GK.

So, you read only one half of the news and posted a thread? Thanks from all those who were thinking, "What the f**k is the connection between thread title and news posted under it?" The part in bold did explain the connection very well. After all, journalists are not the only dimwits out...

Great article by Mr. Shukla of Broadsword! Men and their flying machine: a day at the National Flight Test Centre with the pilots who test fly the Tejas The headphone crackles in his ears as Wing Commander Pranjal Singh looks out from the cockpit of his Tejas Light Combat Aircraft...

Nice to see some corroboration to my Post no. 44 (here). 1. They are going to retain the shape of the inlets while increasing the radius. 2. There will be some tweaking of the airframe for improving aerodynamic performance, I've been assured of that. 3. LRDE is now the nodal centre...

Hi, The image in question is taken from a collection of photos taken during a conference on "High Speed Trans Atmospheric Air and Space Transportation" in 2007 in Hyderabad. Others are sourced from a few research papers published on the topic. As of now, there are no documents on these...

NO PAC -3, PLEASE!!!!:help:

That's called a "self goal"!!!!:rofl: :rofl: Next time check waqas's post for a little thing called as "sarcasm'!:azn: Hello, youtube!

Taubaa! Tauba! :eek::eek::eek:

You have to consider both the detection range and speed of the incoming missile while calculating reaction time. A subsonic detected @ 30 km and Brahmos detected at 90 km both give equal reaction time. Once detected, a subsonic is easier to intercept! Arclight is a BGRV (...

So, you mean to say that the subsonics are so slow and their friction is so less that their IR signature will be negligible ? NOPE!:no: In your own words...... In fact due to their slow speed, the aircrafts covering the fleet can bring them down with IR guided missiles (Python has...
