Well with Panag its all about how great he is and how he cleaned up the mess before.

am less inclined to read his writing

Surya

You don't just fly something across the ocean for your hypothetical deployments just because it can carry tanks First of all it will be needed to be certified to fly such scenarios and possible what ifs. Its hard enough to fly SU 30s and that took lot of training and practice and thinking Large helo...

Surya

Problem with WLR is that it is a defensive item - that is, it locates the other guy's artillery after he shoots. In Kargil the mofos in the heights took the initiative and were guiding offensive shelling on the Srinagar Leh highway and their locations were not known A few WLRs in our hands would ha...

Surya

might make more sense to have higher pilot ratio, turnaround time and serviceability to pure numbers

Surya

I SERIOUSLY dont get where folks are coming up with numbers like 300-400 aircraft needed by the IAF. From what I can remember sanctioned strength has been 39.5 sqds for the longest time. Presently the IAF is at: Where is the 300-400 number coming from in the next decade?? :shock: :-? It is a bloody...

Surya

dude why posting that garbage? its not like it has even some journalistic cover

unecessary hits

Surya

Its not like the bird becomes an a2a fighter all of a sudden. It is about better hot and high performance, not air combat. It will do better in the Himalayas and over Tibet. Also take offs with heavier loads from higher altitude airfields as the joke goes the Jaguar takes off due to the curvature o...

zLXabKlbnCM I don't know if this video was posted earlier, but I couldn't wait to share this on BRF after I saw it. A great video on a great son of India. Million times better than all the movies we are getting nowadays on "benevolent gangsters". Thank you very much pattnayak what a beaut...

If the wife had been unwell or unable to attend, and had nominated a nephew to receive the award would the same basic humility and courtesy have been demanded?

Yes

well well well https://twitter.com/ShivAroor?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor (can some kind soul inline the picture here) It seems during hollande's visit the PM did stand up So darbari protocol excuse goes out of the window Now I need to find the whole clip to see what happen...

Surya

Is that correct? the Honeywell engines already tried out?

I thought that selection process was stuck somewhere

any other confirmation

Surya

Unfortunately many here have taken this "non-standing" thing as a criticism of Modi or Parrikar. It is not. Almost no PM/RM has stood up before. So why blame them. But that does not make it right. I ask any of you here. If the wife, the mother or the father of a PVC, MVC, VC, AC, SC, KC c...

Surya

classic strawman not getting into it Her is the PM meeting 'veer nari' before the ceremony. Kindly get something better to fight about. Although I agree that protocol needs to be changed. Boss to quote Shiv- please dont tell me what to do does not matter if he met her before or after , wrote a poem...

Surya

The protocol does not need the stand up. The highest post, president, is standing. so that is enough. The PM and RM are working there ass off for the nation. What do u and me do for the nation other than just taking care of our self and family and posting in this forum. BTW Shiv aroor suggests same...

Surya

Really - you want to bring protocol??? so to respect and pay attention to a grieving Veer Nari our PM and RM need a protocol???????????????/ mind you this happened last year too - sent tweets and emails PMO and RM am sure others did too So from 26 Jan 2016 to 26 Jan 2017, you think only one soldier...

Surya

Right. Since the pm and rm didn't stand while the prez gave a medal to a relative of a gallant jawan, they suddenly become anti military. You guys need to get over dikhava. Them sitting or standing has zero bearing on how much they respect the military and what they are already doing for the milita...

Surya

shameful of PM and RM to be sitting yet another year when a widow is being presented with a medal

poor thing - heart goes out to her - alone

there is normally a youtube channel they stream too

Khalsa: After eons of being treated like royalty, you are asking the rulers to act like peasants? Not gonna work dude. They will pay, but they will not walk dogs, shine shoes, clean homes, do laundry. Not gonna happen. Its a societal thing - not just army else the local shopkeeper want turn around ...

If they called it F-28 like the Mig 35 - it would be fantastic

NDTV should have ome shame carrying- the last statement where some nameless ass alleges so and so

The govt needs to protect the jawan and have a thorough inquiry by non BSF personnel

Corrupt BSF officials have been involved in other nefarious activities but this is the pits

Surya

Surya it's been a while since we last had a beer. You should come down under again. A nice campervan trip into the desolate and beautiful Aussie outback if you fancy it. Give yourself a week at least. Probably will be a little while have to go through a few more countries before I return for a down...

Oh! So now Turkish Army has only RuAF to save them!!!!!! This is a fine turn of events. Looks like allowing Turkish AF to enter Syrian airspace is not worth the precedent, hence RuAF doing the job for them.

The only nation that offered us supersonic strat. bombers as far back as the '80s was Russia.They realised 30 yrs ago our need for it as China had dozens of TU-16s still being used today. oh how kind of the Russians to devote entire teams to understanding and planning Indias requirements am sure th...

Surya

Yes after we have at least 2 dozen AWACS, 50 refuellers,EW at every level in plenty, our airfields can operate in all weathers, have enough hardened shelters for aircraft and more, have multiple runways .., long range SAMs and whole host of other basic force multipliers. Cheen has all that and more....

So wherein lies the benefit of the CBG for the IN?
