    Turkish Minister of National Defense Yaşar Güler: We are considering purchasing 40 Eurofighter Typhoons

    The initial variant of the Hurjet will be a trainer only right? Assuming that is perfected 5 years from now, and enters service, it will take at least 4-5 years to develop a fighter variant of that. That would mean ~2033 or so. Even Boeing estimates that much time will be taken for a light...

    British Navy nuclear sub malfunction plunged vessel into 'danger zone'

    That is what corrosive sea water does to submarines that have been on long deployments. It is nothing new and doesn't mean they are "rust buckets". PR images that show them in pristine condition are just for that- PR.

    Indian Air Force News & Discussions

    Question is- will they first resurrect earlier number plated squadrons or choose to simply replace the No.3 'Cobras' or No.23 'Panthers' Bisons with the Tejas Mk1A without number plating them. One can't be sure. No.101 'Falcons' were resurrected with Rafales instead of choosing an existing...

    JF-17 vs Tejas at Dubai Airshow

    Possibly because they have been given access to the real data with real pilots having flown them, whereas internet trolls and posters either don't or bring their own biases to bear on their impression of the fighter? It's not for anything that the IAF will fly 220 Tejas fighters.

    The TEDBF CGI art is really off. The nose is actually much bigger and the canopy more proportionately small. Plus the landing gear on the real TEDBF is TALL..not like the one in the CGI.

    IAF set to receive LCA-Mk1A fighters in February 2024

    It'll be flying way before that. But both the AMCA and the TEDBF are yet to receive CCS clearance to release funds, without which no prototype can be built. But AMCA has cleared Critical Design Reviews for all systems by now. Matter of time before the CCS clears the funding.

    There have been plenty of lessons learnt from the Tejas development and flight testing. One of the biggest gains will be in flight testing where they now know which test points they absolutely must test and which ones can be avoided. Will reduce flight testing effort greatly. There will also be...

    India takes strong pro-Israel stance under Modi in a departure from the past

    West Pakistanis killed over 3 million Bengalis within no time. One of the worst genocides perpetrated on people after WW2. And they didn't stop there. Pakistanis have been continuing their ethnic cleansing on Balochis as well. They act like riots between Hindus and Muslims happened for the...
