...had it been the Sitara, the press would've gone to town about how indigenous programs lacked quality control. Meanwhile, gora presses will credit the crash to the inexperienced (if reading a paki site, replace 'inexperienced' with 'ever incompetent') SRDE yindoos (who are better off flying kites...

and by "qualify" i guess you mean "to progressively improve"

Any idea how long is the chase? If you give any credence to Wikipedia, India already has the fastest supercomputer in Asia @ 170 Teraflops: Most powerful publicly known computer systems I suppose since it aint entirely domestic, there must have been a clause that it cant be used for military purpos...

I don't doubt it. Here is a video of the Javelin being used against an insurgent. No such explosion.

JaiS, will try and combine my posts by category. Here are some videos about the 1st world engaging in debauchery: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BDByPfIavQ The above video called the "trophy" video shows private security contractors hired by the US randomly shooting people in Iraq while d...

Javelin vs T-72. I think the T-72 wins http://youtube.com/watch?v=5ZAnYYj9orQ Love the Javelin's "cold launch". Of course it is shoulder mounted and thus required - unless the missile and the man is to be considered "fire and forget". Is a man-portable version of the Nag in the p...

Predator + Hellfire = A lot of dead insurgents

http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=b2d_1182814278

Another great video of the Predator. We see insurgents fire 4 missiles (at what looks like ground assets). The predator is there to catch the action and engages them right after. This would be incredible at our LOC:

We could have an entire thread on UAV engagement alone. It won't be long before we see our Lakshya's and other UAVs star in such videos kicking militant musharaf. Anyways here's a Predator in action:

Viral video of the apache helicopter in action taking out four iraqis. I'll try and find the full video which is more interesting.

Some U.S. Marines, pinned down by an insurgent sniperon top of the building decided that theyd had enough of an Iraqi sniper. They marked this location with a smoke grenade and called for close air support.

It might be interesting to open a new thread to see some of the videos of real time targeting / firing (from Iraq/Afghanistan). Very enlightening to see how fast authorization is requested and cleared to take out targets of interest. http://youtube.com/watch?v=rAUpk0XLHK8 Video of the AC-130 Gunship...

Phillip, Can you please use bullets instead of such long paragraphs? Thanks. On the other hand, I am really impressed by the length of his posts. He takes the time out to post detailed replies in almost every post (whether or not you agree with them). I think that says something. To be fair, we sho...
