One can only hope , XiniX :lol:

There has been an RFI made regarding the Arjun , but i doubt it would be sold and there are no likely buyers at this time. While the Tank may have trumped the T-90 , India i still a new player on the market , and inducting a new tank from a new supplier is huge logistics investment. Also to...

Keep in mind , that at least 1/3 of the cost is going towards setting up logistics , providing training and stockpiling spares for the aircraft. The high cost is to be expected when inducting a new type of aircraft. Considering the purchase of the C-17 and the C130J , IAF is trying to rapidly...

He is just cynic. He only looks at things and makes judgments. He clings onto a negative and expands it till it encompasses the whole issue. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ IAF wanted more thrust for the LCA , they were merely expanding on...

Everyone is alive , that is good news.

We currently have 2 Phalcon radars mounted on the Il-76 platform 1 more is going to delivered , soon IAF is considering a purchase of another 6 Phalcons . It has been reported they have placed orders for more IL-76 but i cant verify that. The 20 Brazilian platforms on order will...

actually two more are under construction , not just one. These will also be larger and better

To be fair i am only supporting the IDF , in saying that those activists were far from peaceful , there were elements that were not peaceful and provocative. But regarding the Gaza issue as a whole , i agree , that something needs to be done regarding the blockade , But what happened on that...

Not as much a scholarship but a research grant. You see the whole idea is that You take set amount of research money, Give it to the armed forces thus making them responsible for how it is spent and what it yields the nation. Get the armed forces to spend that cash , instead of MoD , that...

what's done is done i suppose , the recent attack have upped the ante. We all knew this was inevitable We tried diplomacy , it failed we tried localizing the issue and leaving it with the states to deal with them , some states had success others did not. we tried a centre lead initiative ...

i don't understand your situation , i will not pretend to , nor will delude my self into thinking i know better. My family (also wealthy) never had such issue's. But stop whining and grow a backbone, people like you are then one's who never help India because your dis-disillusioned by...

Simply put , the issue at hand is that Indian army does not trust DRDO or Indian suppliers , and elements within the Army choose foreign suppliers over Indian ones. Army has the least capital intensive of defence hardware , but breaking the mould with the army is impossible , they don't...

essentially we may have the same fuselage but with different wings ?

I'm sorry was that supposed to be an insult :coffee: Pakistan's actions as you say , did not help pakistan one bit. No one in their right mind would want Sri Lanka to replicate any of them. And Sri Lanka actually has a government smart enough not to. Yhea , we are the most popular...

Indian anime ? if only , sigh

Imagine increasing range of of our ballistic missiles by 25% or less. Could Agni-5 incorporate this technology in its third state ?

But the question is what about the PAK-FA , we all knew FGFA will be few years behind the Russian version, So does this mean we will get an the Russian version 2018 , remember there were reports tha out of the 250 5th gen fighters we wish to build. The first 50 will be the Pak-Fa. and...

18 months PD + 102 months R&D = 120 months = 10 years ! They cant make the 2018 time frame with that. FGFA may well not be ready till the very end of the decade or the start of the 2030's .

There must be some undertone in your words that i am missing , because so far all i read was , (just observations) * cynicism * stereotyping *Indian inferiority complex to the max *Lack of depth into any issue. *Reverse jingoism ??? , didn't even know that existed *and contradictory...
