My friend, we must nurture people who wish to think & write more than a couple of paragraphs. I would given the OP another positive rating if he made another similar effort, even as I disagree with him partially.
Look, nobody is born an analyst. Everyone learns to apply his skills. In this case...
We should ask a few questions:
1. Is stealth the sum total of 5th gen design innovation?
2. Would stealth in X-band continue to be the sole determinant? Or is it that IRST & other technologies ensure that law of diminishing returns has kicked in seriously?
3. F-117 was sub-sonic (please...
Risk of Compressive strength failure, where Carbon fiber does very poorly. It is excellent where tensile strength is required. However, one could design a bi-component part with Boron fiber, but really why bother at all? It would be far easier to have Titanium.
What is outrageous is again you sense of entitlement, again. Why do you suppose the Chinese must provide Pakistan with their latest & greatest? Is there a particular reason or do you just consider it a birthright?
TBH, I am pretty pissed off at your sense of entitlement coupled with ignorance; also at your disingenuous attempt at creating a false equivalence between China & USA on one hand and Pakistan & Israel on another. Are you for real?
IAF should shoot Brahmos to the moon. May be they would be surprised by its performance even more :crazy:
You said this in your earlier post: "And with almost 100% confidence I can , the flight profile the Pakistan showing is not true."
Now you are saying this: "As for BrahMos, I know for...
Then just have one page that says "COAS shall automatically assume the post of President of Pakistan with full powers which he shall use as he deems fit" and call it a day. We might as well rename Pakistan as Dictatorship of Wannabe-Egypt.
You know who are criminals? The people who lie, cheat...
Talk is cheap my friend. Brahmos may have been launched from as far away as Andaman Islands for all your claims, but Pakistan was able to track it.
Pakistan probably has good intelligence on all Indian weapon systems. You know how shortcomings of SU-30 MKI came to be known in public sphere...
I've heard this, but I do not know whether this reflects actual reality or was just political messaging for local consumption. In any case IK-Bajwa combo failed to deter India as can be seen by subsequent events. This was a net loss for Pakistan because we did not push our advantage. When PAF...
Again a good effort. Do tag seniors so that they may share their thoughts.
While I think that we must always be prepared for any misadventure from India, we must consider the following points:
1. We must not take steps that tell the world that a war is imminent. This impacts investor...
Cry over IK & Co, but DO NOT talk trash about Constitution. This is treason.
Constitution provides the rules to go by in running a country's affairs and it is a living document. If you find fault with it, try to fix it via prescribed way. Your lack of education & your lack of ethics does not...
We should take any & all information emerging out of Indian Establishment with a giant grain of salt. There is a major trust deficit. Moreover Ambala is not very far in land & I find it hard to believe that Pakistan failed at all. This story is not even a fig leaf.
You were prescient, while I was a dove. Maybe it was due to our divergent natures, but seeing the results I had to accept your opinion as correct. Leadership entails an ability to foresee & game different outcomes. Preparedness is the key. PA should have foreseen this & prepared to gain...
Threads are free here. So go ahead and shoot. But be sure to choose the title appropriately - something like "Strategic implications of the Brahmos missile attack". You may want to rewrite for formatting as well as incorporate some of the feedback, if you wish.
Indeed.
I had immediately googled to see if it was a copy of an existing design. It was not. The closest to it was the X-35. I could not believe my eyes.
Talking of only the design elements observable in what has been disclosed by PAF (because some details are yet hidden), the canted...
This is EXACTLY what I thought when I first saw it 20 months ago. I saved these pics for later reference too. This was one of the reasons why I thought that I had seen the real deal.
This is the lamest defense imaginable. Not only have you mixed up the timeline (you implied COVID in 2018????) but you have actually said that PTI govt is not responsible if it does nothing in a 5 year tenure! What sort of a blind partisan are you?
