No change in position for F16. We still won't go for them ..unless they give us something new.. i am waiting for a meeting of DM MP soon with folks.. will come to know if Carter has indicated anything special. But as of now what I have heard, nothing has changed position stated earlier.
Not really.. it's HAL facility only..
From the same link from earlier post
This IGA, unprecedentedly, mandates an Indo-Russian joint venture for building the helicopter, with a 50.5 per cent stake for HAL, and a 49.5 per cent stake for Russian Helicopters. HAL is permitted to co-opt an Indian...
Its under discussion but what they want is more than FOC model bcz they wish the fully integrated Derby and Python combination along with AESA radar, EW, HUD, etc. It seems Mk1A fits them better with what they want as a requirement. So we have to wait and see.. If and when lines of Credit...
May be you both need to calm down , take a short break and come back once you folks have enough of "holidays".. really i think it will be a much bigger loss if you folks go away like this ..
I can pass one msg to you.. Wajsal was very sad that both you and Joe sir has left... In his words"its a big loss, and if you can get in touch request them to come back".. He feels your and Joe sir's touch is required to maintain rational and calming effect on many topics including J&K
You can surely ask the mods like waz wajsal to have a look and they may review to see if it can be reversed or not.. i am from finance background but thats from my MBA days.. but surely other than my area most questions/topics will need brush up..

Either we order more scorpene to be made in second line so that by last submarine from first line comes out, the second line will be in a position to churn out multiple sub produced parallel within max 2years implying by 2022-23.
Or else we must start urgent construction of indigenous SSK but...
I can tell you honestly L&T has been pretty much irritated with the way their plan for line setup for LCA was resisted and is still being resisted by using some logic which will come out as a farce over time. I think they might give up soon on that plan and soon will be okie doing LRU work adn...
I saw it now .. i dont know who have rated you negative.. I believe it would make sense if you talk with Waz and Wajsal about the ratings and also point to the offensive post.. In general pls try and not quote any troll. The reason being they are baiting Indians to get them rated negative and...
The internal plan of Indian navy for 2030 clearly states that IN will have a fleet of 30 SSKs out of which 24 will be outright modern submarines.
The line mix planned was initially
P 75- 6 subs
P 75I - 6 Subs
Indigenous SSK - 12 subs.
Below are few excerpts from Indian Navy dox. :wave...
possible.. But they have also sent feelers for Su34 and subs as i said few posts above.. Their contention is that Block 52+ is not as per what they require for their campaigns..
I have heard L&T wanting to set up the private sector line for LCA for almost last 2 years.. It has sent the proposal to DM MP, MOD. Its plan is 16 jets a year and it can expand it further. In short, if MOD approves we can have easily
Line - 32 Jets a year (16 HAL, 16 private sector)
Minimum...
