^ Great video. Raring to see that tank under Indian flag.

Rajeev Ranjan : INS Teg

AMAZING pictures and inside view of ops! Must say NDTV has launched a great program.

Why would you like to see another gun covered with toilet paper as armour in Indian service?

Rafale HUD kills.

NDTV : Garuds

Rajeev Ranjan

^^ Seems to be a massive improvement and increase in Garud equipment profile compared to the earlier sneak peek during Rocky and Mayur show 2 years back!

Excellent show... this guy Rajeev Ranjan rocks... his simple rustic hindi, along with the great access he has been given by IAF makes this an amazing episode to watch. the quantum leap in Garud's firepower as well as tit-bits about their responsibilities gladdened my heart.

Garus are the desi SOARs!!!

I always wondered why Garuds never participated in any exercise with other foreign forces, any ideas gurus?

No, they do. Garuds have participated in Ex Red Flag (2008?) and in IAF-French Air Force (Ex Garuda).

Thanks Nikhil, i wasn't aware of it.

Guys,
Check out this excellent 4 part series documentary about Su-27 Flanker family. Found the links on another forum.

Don't miss Part 2 for footage of P-42 platform used to break several world records. The very short take-off run is impressive. Also Part 4 contains amazing but seen before footage of Su-30MKI maneuvers in good quality. Part 4 also contains some good footage of Russian Air-ground guided bombs/missiles.

Su-27 The best fighter in the world

Edit: This documentary is as good as any American fighter doc on Discovery or Military Channel.

Multi-Angle: Grasshopper 12-Story Test Flight 12/17/12

I guess it belongs here:
Su-30 at Mach 2 without canopy:
(Is it 27 or 30 and is it true ?)





Those photos are real and were made during the filming of the Russian movie involving jet fighter stunts. In one episode they had to film the jet without a canopy, so rather to film it on the ground they decided to hire a high-class pilot to make a real flight without that glass thing. He had to take off a few times on such plane in order to film enough material to be included in the final footage.

“The maximum speed I achieved on the jet plane without a canopy glass was around two times greater than speed of sound. While on this speed I even managed to pull out my fingers in glove for an inch or two outside – it became heated very fast because of immense friction force plane undergoes with the air.“, writes the pilot.

Ouch to the Ejection.
The g-forces experienced are mind boggling. My cousin ejected at Gwalior and just managed to stay in the squadron, unlike Nachiketa who had more a greater impact on his spine.

The rule of thumb is that a pilot's backbone/ spine/ vertebrae can only survive a maximum of two to three (if you are lucky) ejections
if he just ejected twice for the movie..... well a career limiting move.

Must have been the Vodka before the flight

no...you just ask someone else tp eject next time

Could we stick to videos please, and post stills in other dedicated threads?

Declassified Trident Nuclear Film - V2466
Amazing

Further if K 15 is acknowledged in the public domain then why don;t we have an underwater launch video of it

x-post from newbie dhaga..
I was watching a AC landing incident where a F-18 Hornet pilot had to eject when the arresting cable snapped after landing and jet rolled and fell in front of the AC....I was wondering when the pilot ejected in front of a moving AC from a falling jet... is he not between rock and a hard place? I mean how can he survive that massive 70,000 ton ship coming straight at him? I am pretty sure there is a way just want to know the procedure.

here is the video...

The seat would have boosted the pilot high into the air, and when the chute deployed, he would land on the aircraft carrier or behind it. The fallen jet would have been pummelled by the carrier if it didn't sink fast enough. I feel bad for the deck crew, that arrestor cable most likely dismembered a few legs.

I think carrier landings are always on the oblique runway so that a ditch will not allow the carrier to sail over the ditched aircraft. The aircraft themselves have specs that cause them to float for a while giving time for a trapped pilot to escape. To my knowledge these are fundamental safety requirements because landings may involve damaged aircraft. There is also a helo always n the air during take offs and landings for quick rescue.

^^Awesome Story

While not about landing, gives some idea of what to expect when rolling off the deck of a carrier!
