    The Tejas Mk1 versus the Kfir Block 60

    Some stupidities have no end. What similarities do you see in these two planes? (Don't say delta wings, that would be childish) Maybe from side angle... Nope , still no similarities! Realize that there is a sea of difference between a pure delta and a cranked delta. The only impact...

    Air-Independent Propulsion For Last Two Scorpene Submarines Ready: DRDO

    I had the pleasure of visiting NMRL a few years ago and saw some of this tech with my own eyes. The AIP has been a major thrust area for NMRL (simplified, it is a rozi roti ka sawal for them). This system is unique in the sense that it was developed to be better than the offered options...

    Is Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan better than Lata Mangeshkar?

    Do not compare musical legends. Both of them are god's gifts to us mortals. As for some misconceptions here.... 1. Lataji is not just a playback singer she has done a lot of work with classical base. You have to listen to some of her non filmi songs to realise this. If this sound is not...
