The walk to my car parked at edge of...

rocket powered jumping mines have been around since the 1960s I believe. they are dropped near roads where convoys might pass and have some kind of propellant to do a frog-jump at the noise of truck engines.

someone posted a link to one such badboy here once.

useful work Harsh. a minor change suggested in that army commandoes are few in number and wasted doing sentry on bridges. the regular army, CRPF and BSF has ample units to do that and are already doing that in NE for 2 decades now. Each major bridge has a small tent camp and a unit of troops guardin...

good heavens I never realizes they brought across 19 pilots.
sounds like every pilot in the sqdn was brought in from the gurus to newbies.

well the shmucks who run my office decided its better I work for them (for once!) than for BR

so I missed the friday evening deadline here.
however I will be posting something this week.

Singha

its is definitely SB022. the non-deployed canard makes the LERX
area look a little different if one blows up the pic. in the MK its a straight angle towards the nose, for the MKI the initial part looks parallel to the fuselage then angles into nose.

the IAF's approach has more or less been the same. The yankees hired this guy with a nikon D1H , the south africans being more SDRE had some photos and looks like singaporeans have no PR at all.

PM's original thoughts were to let them build up to full strength
so that more materials could be demolished at the right time.

that may change given the way S2 has been going lately....

well S2, Vajra is atleast a week away so feel free to run riot in the meantime. you are doing your usual excellent job with the islamist types - particularly liked this line "Gen. Haque wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed but even he could tell that the balance of power had just shifted."...

wise words Luxtor. a high-minded insistence on the Democracy test and HR test is best left to the west europeans and their uber liberal Guvmints. Ray sahab, I have no objection to anyone picking up or modifying or adapting my work so long as my acronym "MT singha" is also credited. think o...

Abhijit Ray, once each page heads over into the next page then
its worth it making a PDF doc but not before. eventually if this thread runs to say 5 pages, then 5 PDF files can be made and if possible joined together somehow.

thanks

R1, I am of the opinion when giants fight, its often not directly but in a proxy battlefield with manageably low forces and escalative potential which need not climb the ladder into a full blown war. politically also its easier to sell.

interesting choices. But I think the evil troika would much prefer to hide behind a strong conventional deterrence while indulging in rampant terrorism same as Pak does in the west.

Nrao, what respect ? we are as stupid and fallible as anyone else. survival and victory is often by making less *mistakes* than the enemy not by some supersmart Sun Tzu judo move.
