"Boring" carrier ? I would still want it to test it's mizziles on TSP before retiring even if it does not fire them in anger during her carrier

Boudhayan

Gentlemen, lets take a deep breath and take it a notch down... would appreciate if we can come back to meaningful discussion on this thread rather than discussing "my horse is stronger than yours" !

Boudhayan

Question to Gurus, does this :

http://bharat-rakshak.com/NEWS/newsrf.php?newsid=18380

mean that the issue was with the integration of the Missile with the tracking devices with no problems with the missile/launch mechanism itself ? If that is the case, then there is noting to worry.

Boudhayan

Bodhiyaan ji, I am not sure if you read my whole post. I wasnt saying, at all, that all Bengalis are China lovers. I was saying that I always tell people in my native place (a small place in Rajasthan and quite a few people still think Bengalis are affectionate of China) that its only a very small ...

Boudhayan

What is quite frankly amazing about the likes of Bidwai and Vanaik( and probably K.Bajpai), is that they display considerable empathy with China in its security concerns . Thus, you will see statements along the lines of "China developed WMD with the US and later Russia in mind" or "...

OT discussion though

Boudhayan

^^ Common Man, it will be having it's first flight tomorrow and you expect it to fly to London ??? Though it will be a dream come true for me atleast if it can do that

Boudhayan

LOL. I think you confused BRF's Dr. Shiv with Shiv Aroor

OMG !!! and all these years I thought they both are the same person ... realized my mistake today

Boudhayan

^^^ That is the exact doubt/question that I had on seeing the video for the first time .... any ideas Gurus ??

Boudhayan

So they are not too much worried about giving away the BARS radar modes ? I think the Rafale s during RedFlag was busy trying to electronically 'sniff' the MKI s and the F15 s that were deployed. The Radar modes together with the frequency for the BARS radar is one of the best kept secrets in India...

Boudhayan

This might be a bit OT. Admins please let me know in which thread I should post this but since we are discussing about Sea Harriers, thought of asking it here itself. If we are planning to retire the Sea Harriers once the Mig 29Ks are operational on the Gorki (around 2013 I believe if everything goe...

Boudhayan

Hmm. I could have looked at the wrong source, of course :D The Indian Navy is in the process of upgrading up to fifteen Sea Harriers in collaboration with Israel by installing the Elta EL/M-2032 radar and the Rafael 'Derby' medium range air to air missile.[61][62] This will enable the Sea Harrier t...

Philip, in the International Naval Discussion, says: I have suggested for decades that for all classes of warships larger than 10-12,000t,they should be flatotops,from where STOVL aircraft can operate.The Japanese and S.Koreans have done exactly that with their "pocket carriers" ,which wi...

What has naval LCA got to do with this crack ??

Boudhayan

any idea how much time would the MoD/GOI/IA take to come out with the "official" result and place fresh orders for Arjun ? Just can't wait for that great day !!!

Boudhayan

I know this might be a stupid question, please do not start jumping on me. :( Why does the Shivalik not carry the Brahmos missiles ? They are supposed to be one of the best and deadliest cruise missile available and produced in India ( would add to the indigenous element to our Shivalik also). Atlea...

Boudhayan

Sorry to distract everyone from the technical discussion but do we have any chaiwalla/paanwalla or official news about new orders for Arjun as well as the official result from MoD for the trials against T90 ? We do know that the T90 was "out-gunned and out-ran" by the Arjun but no official...

Boudhayan

i pray the home made MMR is actually an AESA, that would be excellent. Nice cant wait to see how this phase of testing goes. So we can expect BVR a2a missile firing soon right? AESA or not, the BVR missile firing testing should be soon after the first few flights of LSP3. Though I would surely do a...

Boudhayan

OMG!! Hopefully there is a T-90 mkII in the works or what will the IA import? Export the Arjun to Russia and let them color it in IA markings and let IA import it back again . That way they would get a superb "imported" machine. I believe some other BR Champion had given the same idea few...

ULHs being carried on horse back ?

Can this be done ? I thought they would be too heavy to be carried on Horses. Being carried by Helicopters is possible but horses ???

Can any of the Gurus shed any light on ULHs being carried by Horses ??? Might be I have missed this

Seeing d_berwal Sir's initial post about 4 new regiments, I was about to cry out in happiness but seeing its the Bhishma that is coming in, I started crying in sadness :cry: any news of Arjun's new order coming in from paanwalls ??? or for that matter the "official" result about Arjun's tr...

To all the Gurus.... when they refer to logistical problem with Arjuns due to which they are not being inducted in the strike corps, do they refer to only the bridges not being able to carry the 60ton tank or are there other issues as well ? To my novice mind, the armored bridges are made with the h...

From the article Consider this - a column of Pakistani tanks rumble towards the Indian border, ready to blast their way into the country. The Indian border defences watch in horror as the Pakistani tanks approach. Then B-52 aircraft flies in and drops a CBU-105 bomb. A single bomb releases several ...

I read on the keypub that this new order could be for Su-30 Mk. IV . As we heard last time upgrades planned for existing ones. wtf is Su 30 Mk IV? Might be the stealthy MKIs that UAC and HAL had planned. Check the below links: http://www.defenceaviation.com/2009/07/su-30mki-to-go-stealthy.html http...

I'm hazarding a guess here: Is it possible that the Senior Pilot (Cmdr) got the Junior Pilot (Lt.Cmdr) to eject and try and save his life while he himself tried bravely to control the aircraft? :( Highly possible Rohit.

No way am I being sarcastic... I meant what I had written. Sudhanshu is doing a great job and he deserves all his due credit for this.

@ Sudhanshu.... You rock !!! You have won a fan for yourself man. Keep it up. All the dreams that I used to have are being executed in your scenarios.

Initially the plan was to name the present A5 as A4 with A5 being a real ICBM. However political babus did not have the plans to go for a real ICBM and hence the plan was cut short and A4 was named as A5 with plans for the real ICBM being put in the back-burner for now.
