Is it just me or the Tejas is looking better and better every passing day....:cheers:

Here is a pic of Cannon launched guided missile (CLMDP), a new ATGM for the rifled gun of Arjun being developed at IRDE to replace the LAHAT which is the current ATGM with Arjun. It will have more range, better seeker and a better attack profile!

I think Mr. Aroor is facing some serious shortage of fresh news... He has rehashed the presentation given by Dr. KS Vara Prasad at the Aero India seminar.... (Details can be found HERE) About the future of NAG; these were the points Dr. Prasad made--- * Plans for N LOS type system. *...

Sources for the bolded parts and we will see!:wave: Till then Mr. Han Warrior, you will remain the guy who rants!

Very good post, but addressing it to a guy like han warrior is a waste! He's still stuck with faulty assumptions like LM helped ADA with LCA's FBW. Also, do you have any source on the dassault support? I couldn't find any.

Thanks for the reply! AFAIK, Dassault was considered as a consultant and then dropped as the details of work sharing and costing could not be worked out to mutual satisfaction. ( Source: The Tejas Story: The Light Combat Aircraft Project by Air Marshal Philip Rajkumar) I'll be really happy if...

@ Antibody, Thanks for giving me my 1000th thanks! I'll try to return the favor when you reach 999 (which will be real soon!):cheers: What you have said in the Combat Aircraft Design thread is this, 1. Tejas is a cranked delta and not simple tailless one as you have classified. 2...

While I agree with the facts from your post; I'm getting a faint impression that you think that the LCA is a simple tailless delta. (bolstered by your statements from Combat Aircarft Design thread) If you think so, please elaborate. Adding canards LCA variant with canards was evaluated...

I know! That is why I posted the pics so that the "cranked" part can be highlighted. Apart from the obvious difference in the trailing edge, the Tejas wing has much more commonality with the F 16XL or the Viggen than Mirage 2000 AFA the working philosophy is concerned.

Coast Guard interceptor boat, C-150, commissioned on 28th March at Kochi. The 28-metre ship displaces 90 tonnes, has an endurance of 500 NM and can touch 45 knots. It is armed with a Prahari 12.7 mm HMG.

Some nice data on the proposed M2K upgrade plan ( also with the twist of the frenchmen trying to play hardball!) France tries to tie Rafale with Mirage upgrade Believing Rafale to be in the MoD's shortlist alongside Eurofighter and F/A-18, the French were reportedly using the Mirage...

because the French Dassault Aviation is the officially listed consultant of the project. Any source for this?

Both of them are tailless deltas but that is where the similarity ends! The Mirage is a simple tailless delta. While the Tejas is a "cranked" tailless delta. Also, please check the pics of the two crafts provided and notice the difference in the area where the wing meets...

:lol::lol::lol: What he really wants is for USA to sell F22 to Libya!!!o BTW, this is what sinodefence says about the KS 1. Where are you, peaceful?:cool:

Yo Einstein, Pantsir S1 is the name of the fuc*ing complete system (including an autocanon!). " 57E6-E " is the name of the missile it uses which perhaps you wanted to compare with Akash. Also, any link for this 90% commonality figure? ( Don't say rupee news! :lol:) Here are the pics of...

Yes bro, MEMS has the potential to completely replace the RLG somewhere in the future as it's disadvantages are being progressively smoothened out. Though, I'm pretty confidant that apart from applications where size does matter (like arty warheads or ATGMs) RLGs are here to stay for quite a...

Sirjee, do not forget our desi Ring Laser gyro (RLG)! RLG based INS is going to be the backbone of all of india's future missiles and aircrafts. domain-b.com : DRDO awards for missile scientists

Yeah sure! :enjoy: When folks back home ask me about this; I'll just tell them that it is due to a "map from Wiki"!:lol: These people do not refer to wiki for updating about the Naxal status of their districts! Ignorant indeed! ;)......

Are you asking us to look at this map from your link? If yes, then I'm sh*t scared! My birth place falls smack in the middle of "Severly affected districts" according to this map.:eek: And all these years, I never knew that my city was a naxalite stronghold. Next time I return there...

1. Is this girl racist? Going by the transcript of this video, it appears to be more of a stereotyping than a racist slur. The "ching chong" stff was more of a parody of the language and mannerism than actual racist abuse. However, just looking at the pure joy on her face and twinkle in her...
