Thanks for the perspective. It clearly is not as simple as it looks. Let's hope the Babus who did not see this alarming decrease in Fighter numbers coming, get the best out of this purchase. It hurts when the french and the Russians charge exorbitant prices for upgrades. But at least we get...

Yeah, it was added most probably by someone from Bangalore on 26 June, 2011. The sentence he added was "Srilankan army odered 20 light combat helicopters". But that entry was his first on Wikipedia, so probably, it is a fanboy-edit especially without any source(s).

Let us not forget that MMRCA is a stopgap provision to take care of fast depleting aircraft numbers in IAF left by late induction of LCA. Regarding the recent experience of the Mirage upgrade - Why can't we put some clause that allows us to upgrade ourselves. Or from a third party (maybe Jews...

Any updates on the large scale manufacture of CL20 propellant DRDO recently tested.

It's funny to realize that in Delhi and Jaipur, we also have two old meteorological instruments Jantar Mantar.

I have heard the same Wish India test fires 10,000 Km ranged Prithvi 2 this year. :cool: Also wondering what was Prithvi 2 test about this year?

The way Indian economy is growing, oil prices will necessarily go up in the world market and all will be affected. So far India was using most of petroleum imports for domestic transportation. Now that industry is taking hold the demand for electricity is skyrocketing and in absence of regular...

Could someone explain if this new NSG Regulation will make the bilateral agreements with Kazakhstan, Russia for supply of Uranium null and void?

Hmm, I feel I am being watched.

That will hopefully induce more young Indians to join Indian Air Force and not view it only as a war machine.

Just a recap. Israel may have her hands tied to work upon a JV with India thanks to Sher Khan. However, some later inputs like in making of vanilla su-30 to MKI may be indispensable for India. France has only "recently" fielded the Rafael (still looking for a customer in international market)...

The article has some factually incorrect info. Here goes It should be west coast of India, or the east coast of Arabian sea with India

Not sure what will be missing in P8-I; however, in case of c-17 the following were missing/replaced, AN/ARC-222 Single Channel Ground and Airborne Radio System (SINCGARS) - Manufactured by Magnovox and administered by the US Air Force KV-119 IFF Digital Transponder (Mode 4 Crypto Applique) -...

PAK-FA is superior than JSF claims Sukhoi PAK-FA - Russia's Strategic ?Game Changer?. However, readers must consider that this website seems to downplay capabilities of anything American except the F-22. So read it with a boatload of salt. Opinions stating JSF as "less maneuverable" have been...

But how to deal with CISMOA and BECA? F-35 will certainly come with "latest stealthy" tech which might not be released to India. They have effectively put the proverbial ball in India's court knowing that India would be seen "accommodating US" this late in competition. We should proceed with...

I would like it to be a cl20 solid fuel based canisterized missile with MIRV & GPS independent navigation and with a SLBM variant. Let's call it Surya-1 for now. It needs the propellant as well as MIRV based on public knowledge. Fingers crossed for A-5 test.

Are those fishing rods? ;)

Maybe HAL should do manufacturing processes JV with M&M to start high output factories. We will soon also have to supply to foreign markets and with exponential growth in defense related technologies;we must implement faster production cycles or risk building entire squadrons of prototypes.

Just a stupid idea of mine. :undecided: Let's move on ..
