    Decision time for Indian attack helicopter tender

    ^^^^^ @axisofevil Sir, I think u didn't get my point.... No doubt what you have mentioned is correct, however, my personal opinion is against reverse-engineering.... My statement was made against another comment and what I meant was that India should with all its human and material resources...

    Please elaborate with some evidence..... That tank has Iron Fist on it and Neither does Le-Clerc come in this colour (Desert camo - not sure, though) and nor does it have Iron Fist, so how is it a Le Clerc Top, please explain!!!!!!!! Also, it has a curved turret not a squared of one as in...

    Arjun Mk2 will use Leclerc and Merkava components

    The best Chinese MBT Type 99 has a first hit rate of ~85% only when it is static, while our Arjun has First hit probability of ~90% when on the move, and the Pakistanis use a rather "not so brilliant PLA tank platform" for their tank and even then they dare to teach us about making tanks...

    2nd Pak FA prototype maiden flight pics

    Difference is not just in approach to stealth but also to roles assigned!!!! DO you think that a plane as huge as J-20 can maneuver in a dog fight or in any air-to-air engagements???? Its primary purpose is strategic bombing, hence the huge internal weapons bay.... However, things like canards...

    2nd Pak FA prototype maiden flight pics

    Thanks for posting something about FGFA and PAK-FA..... Other than two-seater variant, what else is different in FGFA as compared to PAK-FA....???? Also, I'm interested in knowing if FGFA is going to be made in a different material as compared to PAK-FA because I had heard that PAK-FA consisted...

    Decision time for Indian attack helicopter tender

    Yeah, u r right that it has a lower max. altitude but it has got better speed, but then again Mil Mi-28 loses out on combat radius that too by almost half, yet again it boasts of better lift and better stability due to its 5-bladed against the Apache's 4-bladed rotor, but has lower useful weight...

    Decision time for Indian attack helicopter tender

    Ya, I have mentioned that, too.... That's the whole point of the discussion here that Mil Mi-28 is a gud Russian Helicopter with cheaper price tag and loads of firepower..... Apache too has gud firepower, gud reputation and gud International Market.... The Mil Mi-28 looses out on the fact that...

    Decision time for Indian attack helicopter tender

    That buddy, I say, we can add in the long run.... BTW, we modify or upgrade everything we have..... This is the case of defence and of precious citizen's tax's spending.... Why do you wanna risk it with buying from America.... First, we don't trust America and America doesn't trust us...

    Decision time for Indian attack helicopter tender

    IMO, Mil Mi-28 is the way.... Its not technologically "baba-adam" and with us Indians always ready with the After-Markets, we can soon enough spice 'em up to be the one of the best (not impossible, so who knows....) helis in the world..... Secondly, 22 helicopters means MoD is only trying to...

    Decision time for Indian attack helicopter tender

    Yeah, u r right...... afterall, only except the Helina, I think almost all the work is complete on LCH..... I expect them to induct it ASAP enough and go for a mark-2 version with atleast retractable wheels/landing gear... cozz I mean, what the heck, u make a whole helicopter with stealth in...

    Decision time for Indian attack helicopter tender

    Buddy, just making a point here....... An Mi-17 can carry 30 fully-equipped soldiers, along with provisions for carrying an SUV inside, easily upgradable, can carry SUVs or light howitzers below with ropes along with inside loads, is a reliable platform for both multi-role and attack/support...

    Decision time for Indian attack helicopter tender

    Ya, I do agree with you buddy, to some extent, that they were/are useful but not the way in which India fights.... We never do serious urban warfare in practice except for say, Jammu & Kashmir and this heli, the littlebird, is more useful in an urban situation than a forest type... The problem...

    Phase-I of F-Insas to be ready for induction by 2011

    Buddy, let me make you absolutely clear about armours... Have you even seen how big a 7.62 round is, which is used in AK-47s, which in-turn is used by the Terrorists.... Believe it or not, it is capable of penetrating through most parts of a helicopter and you are expecting it to not pass...

    Exclusive-India's Future Main Battle Tank (FMBT)

    And there is nothing to laugh on the demands....... As we all know, to be the best we have to think different from the crowd....... And if in the course we even develop a spaceship- that too would be a great achievement........ And I hope, by now, people here should or would have understood...

    Exclusive-India's Future Main Battle Tank (FMBT)

    And well Pakistani members, here, shouldn't be making fun of the demands since they neither have any building experience in terms of military equipment (Both Al-Khalid and JF-17 Thunder were made and developed in China and if any development has been done to it, it was also using Chinese...

    Exclusive-India's Future Main Battle Tank (FMBT)

    Well, there can be two possibilities.......... 1. IA doesn't want any more indigenous projects by DRDO..... which in a way saves money and reliability issues.............. 2. That is what the tanks should be by 2025 may be and to keep up with times.... They have insisted DRDO to make the best...
