Well I can't change people's opinion, but I do wish that poeple do some research before making an opinion. It is "funny" the way everyone comes and "bashes" there way out on Russia for everything. They robbed us in gorky, they are deliberately delaying nepra, they don't supply IL...

Thats like saying if Rahul Gandhi becomes the PM tomorrow the defence plans of MOD will change.

"free purchase"

how can one "purchase" without "paying"

Boreas

yes but they shouldn't stop, the aim should be researching for the sake of knowing technology, possessing knowledge. Say we got x-tank, nobody bought. Let it be, continue research on newer technology using it as a test bed. Work on active protection, better projectiles etc. Even if army procurement ...

Wouldn't it be better, if some amount of buffer money is provided to DRDO, HAL and other select PSU every year to develop ideas/weapon they think they can develop with the manpower/know how they possess or can acquire. And make this independent of requirements of forces, let the scientists study bes...

In short, China doesn't have to do that much to ensure a one front war with India. Thats the point, what I want to say is we should put efforts to make it a two way affair for china. Neither India need to fight for Japan, nor Japan need to come in aid of India. We just have to create a scenario whe...

See for making a second pass over the target, there is no need of a full tank at border. They can make more then one pass without that, and mki can make many more with its huge internal tanks.

A flight of Rambhas takes off from Pune with 2 drop tanks each and some ammunition (a-a, a-g). Mission is to approach Gwadar through the sea route, bomb the port, release a Brahmos that'll hit somewhere in the mainland (say Quetta) and come back to Pune Mayureshji, fire up bhu-Googal or Googal-dhar...

Tanking near the border allows the ingressing plane to spend more time in pakistan . A plane without inflight refuelling would consume a certain amount of fuel reaching the border which could be better spent in pakistan airspace... totally agree, after dropping bombs it’s always a good idea to go f...

disagree on this Sargodha and chaklala are heavily defended but you can bet we are going after them. so in that sense important bases are going to get targetted.

I have somewhat of a question.The BR news page shows that Jodhpur is now South Asia's largest airbase.In the event of a war won't it be the first one to be targetted and correct me if I'm wrong but even if we seen install 'n' number of defences ,how do we know for sure that it's capability won't be...
