yes I agree and its an achievement. forget using the resources to develop the country, just develop things to destroy it :woot: great policy.
we have to courage to go it alone on projects and trash them. indian missile system is one. we trashed Trishul as it was useless in the end. pakistan...
Perhaps I may not have an understanding of an anti-radiation missile :undecided:
An ARM is designed to move against a specific RADAR after pinpointing its locality from the EMP and other Electronic Signatures given out by the same. While the 1st generation ARM was beaten by the radar...
roopesh, the missile is an attempt by Brazil to secure a place in defence market. the delivery will be an interesting issue as India has been known to scuttle previous contracts of Pakistan. The fact that India intends to induct upto 12 new Embrarer based AEWs offhand which is minimum 20 times...
I have posted the sites as the discussion has been over MAR-1 and its abilities and of Spyder system. Thought out discussion would be welcome based on facts and not jingoism please.
well the MAR-1 deal was certainly a surprise to India in terms of Brazil providing to a "hostile" country keeping in view the close defence cooperation in R&D between the two. But its nothing to be ruffled over.
MAR-1 is the Brazilian version of AGM-45 Shrike (used till 1992 by US and...
there is no comparision here ...... India has to reform and move ahead, pakistan has to on its own basis too ...
The advantage India had was we have maintained democracy even at times when the Prime Minister (Indira Gandhi) wanted Army to take over in Emergency Days ..... The then COAS and...
pretty interesting summary there you have posted. I really think you can add two factors to it:
a. Since 1979 Afghanistan has seen nothing except war. With its economy shattered, a whole generation born and bred in war, which has nothing except gun culture and war as a way of life, few...
My Boring Post;)
Religion, as a whole, has risen from beliefs. Be it the Koran, the Testaments or the Geeta, they all are the collections of stories which beautify the life that the almighty may or may not have created. Is there a God? That is something I believe is a personal perspective and...
i seriously doubt what you say is valid. firstly RAW has an amazing capability and information in terms of taliban and AQ especially seen with very extensive cooperation given to CIA and US post 9/11. Infact SigInt elements of IA in afghanistan are assisting US with data and information as also...
Batman
actually contrary to popular belief, there is a higher than ever probability of more troops being inducted into afghanistan by the new obama administration. obama has taken a stand on this issue and has infact termed pakistan as being a safe haven for terrorism and it with afghanistan...
this is the logical extension of the US-Japan-India-Australia axis (which is now kind of defunct) and aims at enhancing Indian security from unstable and rogue nations who are holding credible delivery systems and nuclear weapons in the near proximities of asia. however this proposal for PAC-3...
Agnostic kindly please bear with me. delete the post if you find it veering way off course.
regarding a direct confrontation, the fact that incase (and here the plans do exist) IA does enter Afghanistan, then there shall be no direct conflict, instead a campaign on lines of soviet invasion...
am sure you shall be able to appreciate the economic aspect of the expanding indian defence market as also the geopolitic realities ..... china and muslim fundamentalism needs to be checked and US has only India increasingly as a willing partner ..... never an ally though ... dont read too much...
oh they are meant for artillery support :rofl: too bad they never trained for it though ....
by the ways I hear PA uses MG3 and H&K G3 rifles still? are you trying to battle it out for status of oldest weapon in battlefield?:rofl:
just joking:lol:
in summation ...... the whole thing is hot air .... the listing for field formations in the orbat.com are also incorrect as the formations mentioned can NOT be withdrawn and said general is commanding a corps in J&K
actually H2O3C4 the whole scenario is a totally theoretical one and has no basis as such for no political party will allow troops to enter en-masse into Afghanistan to be stuck as regional policeman. there is a theoretical question and indian forces will NOT enter afghanistan overtly. covertly...
actually , i dont see any scope for conflict with PA in afghanistan until and unless PA initiates it. As long as IA is in afghanistan (if that is) then PA itself will ensure not one militant rests in NWFP and instead goes out to fight IA in afghanistan. Safe haven will be there but ISI would not...
Hi

Anyways few points for discussion as recommended by Ratus Ratus in post 1:
1. The Indian Army has been active in...
