Well freedom fighters for some are terrorists to others. But let's not muddy the waters here, even though that is the general definition it is not a monolithic definition, we all have common sense we know who terrorists are and how they behave. Bhagat Singh or even Subhas Chandra Bose didn't...

True, BrahMos cannot be classified as Indian as it is indeed not an Indian missile but a product of a joint venture. As for modifications done, initially we did indeed require Russian assistance to produce BrahMos' subsystems in India and we slowly kept indigenizing and now we only really need...

I have already explained the definition. A terrorist would be anyone trying to violently change the stay quo in order to achieve political goals and who has the backing of his organisation who want the same; circumventing the democratic process so to speak. Hafiz Saeed is a terrorist like...

You specifically mentioned inside the US, this particular incident is not inside the US. But even so, for this incident at the least my initial definition still stands, Americans disavowed him, the terrorist organisation wouldn't. True. But unfortunately for anyone wanting to say otherwise...

........the will to commit violence to achieve political goals. Again, mentally disturbed children aren't shooting up schools to achieve any political goals. I do see Donald Trump; see him give pakistan a really hard time surviving that is and so do you.

Arre janaab, why would anyone call mentally disturbed children "terrorists"? Terrorists are a specific group of people(some would not even call them people) who resort to violent acts to achieve political goals. I don't see 1000s of radicalized American teenagers attacking people, destroying...

US Congressman seeks immediate designation of Pakistan as state sponsor of terrorism MoneyControl • Oct 18, 2018 11:19 AM IST By PTI A top Republican lawmaker has urged the Trump administration to immediately designate Pakistan as a state sponsor of terrorism and terminate its non-NATO ally...

That is most likely what'll happen. But, you never truly know, there might just be some deal for some offset or the other.

True. Which is exactly why we are endeavouring to replace the said seeker with an Indian one, a successful test for which was conducted a few months ago. The liquid ramjet on the other hand is tricky business. Even if we complete its development trials we don't know if the Russians would agree...

At this point, Brahmos might as well be Indian. Excluding the ramjet engine and seeker, majority of the subsystems in Brahmos is indeed Indian. However in recent times we have successfully developed and tested our own solid fueled booster as well as the X-band SAR seeker which will replace the...

HD-1: When a driller starts a ramjet missile AIR BY HENRI KENHMANN The news is surprising to say the least - a Chinese company specializing in open-pit mining announced yesterday that it has successfully completed the first supersonic flight of its HD-1 missile. According to a short...

Awesome, K9s in Indian Army service just over a year after L&T and South Korean HTW signed a pact for K9s. If Indian defence needs can be expedited in such a fashion by the Indian private sector then for the long term at the least, defence PSUs really have no place in the defence of the nation.

So what? There are more JF-17s produced than there are J-20s, does that automatically make JF-17s better than J-20s? 11 Tejas have been produced in 2 years since it was formally inducted into the IAF back in 2016, how many JF-17s did pakistan produce in 2 years following 2007 when JF-17 was...

Better to have a "3rd class air force" that is competent enough to force the opposing air force to not dare fight it in a battle, that the said opposing air force's country initiated, than have a "rouhani" air force that's all talk. As for rejected........ The IAF officially inducted the Tejas...

Are you presuming a missile being hit by a small drone while it's in motion or while it's still on the ground? Even so, I still don't see how they are analogous. Missiles maybe big but never as big as a space shuttle which has far too many vulnerable moving parts jutting out than a sleeker...
