all I am saying is that it sounds like it's analogue in air. that is the principles may be somewhat similar. again I am no fluid mechanist, jut a random thought.

He also said that depending on existing or emerging threats the need may arise for a 10,000 km range missile in the future. These are generally referred to as the 'Surya' class of missiles and will constitute India's inter-continental ballistic missile capability. explicit mention? According to Dr ...

evaporates due to heating of the missile nose during its hypersonic flight and the evaporated metal particles in atomic form react exothermically with oxygen atoms surrounding the body to release additional heat into the air in front of the missile. pardon my ignorance , but this sounds like some k...

some nice pdfs on reducing drag in hypersonic flight, the first one deals directly with the incorporation of a drag reducing aerospike in a hypersonic missile. http://techreports.larc.nasa.gov/ltrs/PDF/aiaa-95-0737.pdf http://amelia.db.erau.edu/nasacds/200408Disc4/research/20040086768_2004090730.pdf

here it is , the final frontier requires protection for japan as well. everybody is waking up to the next wave of militarisation and I am sure a new Space NPT is on the horizon somewhere. only this time India will be inside the fence. http://www.spacewar.com/reports/Japan_to_allow_military_use_of_sp...

The Indian Air Force (IAF) has decided to induct two squadrons of the indigenous Akash Surface-to-Air Missile (SAM).

yup the space component has to be in place for any BM counterforce prescription. But this is an option that needs to be explored , if only as a recourse in the event that the enemy comes up with really sophisticated CM defences. the chinese are already moving towards arming their BMs ( albeit short ...

At a strategic level, Mao or someone similar said something like India and China are two tigers in the same forest and that cannot persist for long. Mao clearly wanted China to be the alpha male . one great chinese leader, also remarked while talking to Kissinger, "America was the eagle, Russi...

'Circular Error Probable' of the missile is less than 20 m,

from the pioneer edit.

That kind of qualifies this missile for use with conventional munitions.

Work is also under way to provide missiles with the capability to have counter measures against anti-ballistic missiles and futuristic missile systems, Mr Chander, who is also Director of ASL, told newspersons here today. This is from the link posted earlier in full. http://www.thehindubusinessline...

Why worry about the bad things that other nations say?. My dear friend, the PRC is the one who is excessively bothered about "saving face". that is why the need to have showpiece maglevs and "olympic games" . Today, China is trying to look like the USSR with the the capitalist v...

you are absolutely right. the rot actually set in from Afghanistan itself.

No, they are going to use the Father of All Bombs to settle future Grozny's.

And if Igorr is to be believed , Georgia will be the proving ground.

Some buddhist inspired chinese texts do describe India as the "western Heaven" , however. while they regraded themselves as the Central Heaven. everything beyond India and china was regarded as the realm of barbarians.

Second, Confucianism is NOT a religion. It is more like an ideology

Actually, it's more like a philosophy.

the re-entry velocity was 4km/sec which I think is up there with best. the boost phase altitude of most ICBMs can be up to 400 km , so this isn't a particularly depressed trajectory launch. if I am not mistaken , depressed trajectory launch may not only lead to IRBM ranges but IRBM re-entry velocity...

the Agni -3 TD is generations ahead. The SS-20 had progressively slimmer stages and even it's first stage wasn't 2.0 m in diameter. Not to mention avionics, payload adapter , composite stages, etc. The russki general is probably on a nostalgia trip and used the SS-20 to only make a point about the r...

this is nothing new . ONGC has been saying that the "Deccan is floating on oil" for at least the last thirty five years . I am not holding my breath. economic recovery of these deposits is far from viably established.

My dear katare , you started by saying that I couldn't be more misinformed, so I sought to reveal to you how 'informed' your own comments seemed to me. In any case , since you don't want to indulge in one upmanship, i'll stick to the UMPP question. Yes, there isn't going to be enough coal and this i...

You couldn't be more misinformed about UMPPs. First since the project has achieved financial closure it has surmounted all of the problems that you mentioned in record time of couple of years.

on second thoughts, this really has as much to do with Indian Interests as with the history of our nuke program . It is an important signpost as it were. Of course if admins second your view , they can delete it.
