I completely agree that experience gives you a strong foundation infact in India's case although the orignal MMR radar of Tejas Failed to meet our requirements it was our experience in ground based radars that allowed us to even dare to attempt to build airborne Radars.
Russian RAM is of...
Comparing Ground Radars to Airborne Radars would be wrong, because both operate on different band and thus need different types of hardware (TR modules) not to mention the algorithms that go into them are vastly different.
Sure making a ground radar allows a country to have the basic...
Yes there are plans for an Indian Radar Upgrade, it would be a scaled up version of uttam mk2 Radar.
Infact scalability was one of the most important parameter in the uttam project.

There are plans for an armed variant of IMRH that would be comparable to AH 64 infact it would be beneficial for Egypt to join the IMRH project if that's the case.
One of the biggest hurdle in most Indian projects is funding so if Egypt can fund the IMRH project it could be a great area of...
Are there Any Helicopter requirement of Egypt that India can fulfill,
In my opinion these are the possible candidates
• The HAL Light Utility Helicopter (LUH) can replace the French Gazelle and ancient UH 12 helicopters.
• IMRH can replace Soviet Mi 8 and Mi 17 (infact if things go well Egypt...
Sad state of affairs, but now that you mention P8i don't we need 6 more of them, wasn't there a clause in the orignal agreement for a possibility of 6 more aircrafts
But are they Enough
only 6 netra mk2 we need double that amount, not to mention they will only be able to provide 300° coverage,
(I hope the next 6 netra mk3 will be rotordome variant with 360° coverage)
7 EW aircrafts aren't enough either, currently we have none, we need at the very least 12...
Very Short Range Air Defence System or VSHORAD is a man-portable infrared homing surface-to-air missile system designed to eliminate low altitude aerial threats like helicopters, unmanned aerial vehicles etc at close ranges.
VSHORAD missile system was designed and developed by Defence Research...
You would be gravely mistaken to equate China to Russia and Taiwan to Ukraine
Unlike Russia China has the economic, military and industrial might to even challange the Americans, (modern day china is similar to WW2's America) and unlike the Russians have the money to buy other countries...
Great Initiative and about time we start doing such type of simulations regularly.
But I am not sure India can do anything in the situation barring providing logistics support to US and it's allies and even that would be far fetched.
India opening a new front against China would be a death...
indian weapons such as SAAW and astra mk1, 2 and Rudram are going to be integrated on to french rafale for domestic and export purposes as confirmed by Indian weapon manufacturer BDL.
Can increase the chances of Indian weapons export multifold...
That guy is a fool I wonder why do you even interact with him.
A big part of what makes a radar deadly is it's optimization and software algorithm and you can't just magically make your radar's algorithm better than a radar made by industry giants who have access to more data and worked on...
This is an incredible footage of what is called a "hesitation roll". The aircraft flies nearly straight and level, rolling 90 degrees at a time and then 'hesitating' before rolling the next 90 degrees. The pass is completed with 4 such 90-degree rolls.
Although, this looks fairly simple, there...
That is the cost IAF pays but for EAF the jet will be cheaper than that because when IAF buys any military hardware they have to pay 18% tax which is not the case with export customers.
For Export Customers a single Tejas mk1a will cost 306 crore rupees or 41 million USD which I think is very...
Dhruv clocking over 100000 flying hours in just 10 years of its service is a testament in itself on how amazing this machine is.
