Seems like after this test, orders will be placed for Namica - although it should have happened months if not years ago. But better late than never

I hope we make it 10 at least, this investment will payback us handsomely at the right time.

Pankajs as usual, you are making things too complex. For China, there is no border defined and they will keep pushing our green, grey and red - imaginary lines. It is unfortunate but I haven’t seen single statement from GoI that we have clear border as depicted in the Indian map. There are no colore...

I would say, we may have tested some new capabilities. Prithvi class don’t require operational readiness trials after 20+ years of induction and 75+ tests.

Sir, we have predefined algorithms to detect the targets based on real-time sat imagery, of course there are chances of being fooled as these are automated but then we have secondary and other manual checks in place. So keep calm!! Try to find some computer program or algorithms then spending time o...

I personally think, last stop is FM meeting if nothing comes out from there. Chances are high that CCP army will try to do some stupidity on some posts. As per Shiv Aroor, we are dominating the finger 4 hights. So CCP army is getting desperate and clear instructions are issued to our local commander...

RKumar

As per ToI, CCP army has lined up tanks in Chusul area and doing firing exercises on their side, these sounds can be heard by our troops. It is one of two reasons or both - sending a signal before FM meet, to force India‘s hand to accept a defeat by threat - actually preparing to attack our position...

Amazing - posters like RKumar are the bane of India's industrial progress. Let us say that he is correct - that HAL is broken and cannot deliver. So what then is the answer? To import 200 Rafales? Boss Indians will literally have to eat grass to accomplish that. And it is their choice if they shoul...

It is frustrating to see all local items are still in the endless trials, once they cross these trial marathons - are stuck in the manufacturing, substandard QC issues, lack of automation.

But it seems asking the hard questions based on facts are anti-national, so I enjoy chai-biscuit.

Good luck!!

RKumar

Sorry mate. If you don't know something then a wiser course is to ask than to spout. GOI and GOK have not given permission to HAL or companies in supply chain to operate as normal. First find what the situation is before shooting from the hip!!! Quoting everything from open source here .... Jan, Ju...

We have discussed why there is a hiccup currently and why timelines are not being met. Please read up before posting. Please see JayS' post on the permissions from GoK and GoI to HAL and its supply chain to operate in this COVID environment. HAL cannot do much if its lord and master and the step mo...

There should be no signing until HAL can deliver at least another 3 birds ... It reflect poor image for the HAL, if there are still hiccups with production than either they have poor management or lack of accountability at HAL as they could not benefit from LSP to SP IOC to SP FOC transition and ove...

What if this chinese gambit is to force a border settlement in somewhat favorable terms to them? Do they think this is their last chance? Will India oblige? I can see that this will appeal to NaMo - he has already said that he will be the PM only for 2 terms and will forever change India and addres...

Mods, will it make sense to have Indo-Sino official statements thread - zero discussion only but collections of verified statements and counter statements from important political, economic and military guys.

Qn: Do our border protocols with China ban the use of landmines along the LAC, or within a certain distance of the LAC? If so, wouldn't the Chinese mining of the approaches violate this agreement ? Agreements signed by the Chinese is not worth the paper it is signed on. But if there are causality o...

^^ Don't raise your expectation ... no such thing is going to happen. India just wants a return to status quo. Will sino Play on our tune?, it seems PLA is not satisfied with what they already occupy and wants more. The statement from Mr Xi, does not give much comfort. It needs two to dance tango b...

Let’s not celebrate too soon, the game is yet to start and we have to keep our guards up all along the border. Anything is possible from air strikes, cruise missiles, heavy art, MBRLs to dropping commandos behind enemy lines by both sides. Clear instructions should be out to down everything flying o...

RKumar

So finally it starts... both sides have hardened their positions and little scope of backing down.

If the pictures of gravestone are real, Xi has to respond otherwise he will be seen as weak but timing of leaks and clashes are not co-incident.

I remember a very short discussion with my army friend, may be 3 year or so back he told me Modi wants us to fight China as GoI is pushing army hard to build roads till the border.

I was not sure what he meant but it is getting clearer with time.

Everything said and done, I don’t agree with spending 8 billions on 36 planes except for noclear delivery. This amount invested in local industries would have made much bigger impact.

It shows that UP police require a reform. The time of using danda is gone and time to re-train them with latest local rifles and protection wares. At least get in place some special crack teams for high-risk actions like black cats of Punjab Police.
