Re: India nuclear news and discussion - 1 sep 2008

Media campaign has been accelerated for the gullible aam aadami. Rediff message board has been shut down to prevent the be-pardaisation of MMS govt. India should walk away from this deal or test asap (preferably before the deal passes through cartel). That way the NSG draft is through and we have te...

Re: India nuclear news and discussion - 1 sep 2008

Narayanan: A strategic reserve is a theoretical insurance policy but MMS has not been able to make it de-jure, even though he has language in both 123 and IAEA for that. If the de-jure part stays this way, and USA and other countries are allowed legally to demand a return of the fresh fuel supplied...

Re: Is it too early to end Jaguar Production line??

Sell it to african nations. My layman's approach would involve using old bomber aircrafts (like jags) in naval role. (If airforce is unhappy with the planes). If Airforce wants to retire these planes navy could have them easily.

Ah ha. What a great ending to the epic battle. Sad for the losses :( of own pilots/aircrafts.

Over all we lost
2 Su30 MKIs
2 Mig29 Ks
6 Sea Harriers

But over all we managed to save the CBG :) and that will matter most in the battle for Andaman.
