Yes but it explains how the Americans succeeded in miniaturizing Intertial navigation systems. You can fit six Micro-PNT on a one cent coin. The military implications of such a systems isn't limited to precision guided airtillery shells or rockets, small enough to fit on large caliber round it...
@janon I can't post links Google search and find the DARPA press release dated July 24, 2014
BEYOND GPS: 5 NEXT-GENERATION TECHNOLOGIES FOR POSITIONING, NAVIGATION & TIMING (PNT)
Please share your source, according to information available to the public the Mig-21's maximum rate of climb is 46,250 ft/min.
Slower than the F-16's 50,000 ft/min. I don't see the Bison pulling away from the F-16 in the vertical.
You keep talking about jammers what use are jammers close in...
Except the 'Teen' pilot has better all round visibility, situational awareness and much lower work load as opposed to the Bison. These factors can be crucial in close combat. And I really doubt a Bison can out climb an F-16 or F-15. After all the F-15's zoom climb record was only bested by the...

Relax Captain, there is no reason to resort to name calling. All I said was that AVM Bahadur isn't the last word on acquisition of fast jets. His combat experience ferrying supplies to Saichen does not make him an expert on air combat regardless of the amount of burnt jet fuel he claims to have...
No the F-35 does not cost a trillion dollars to date. Total cost to develop and produce is estimated at 398.6 billion dollars. The trillion dollars you claim is the cost to develop, produce and operate over 30 plus years. The current LRIP fly away cost per fighter is 100 million $ this is...
In my opinion, Air Vice Marshal Manmohan Bahadur didn't get off to a good start by questioning the credentials of Bharat Karnad. As far as I'm concerned every Indian deserves to be heard on the subject of national security and that includes AVM Bahadur a former Cheetah pilot. Arguably not the...
