Extrapolate that to an all India level, it's only about Rs 32600 crores.

Indeed, that is the reason why they are in the mix. They are cheap and plentiful. Can be automated easily and deployed in large numbers.

AFAIK from discussions with friends in the AF, I have gathered that typically the total number of AAM's procured is based on the total number of aircraft that the enemy possesses and the Pk of the missiles plus stocks for live fire training and carriage life expiry. We don't willy-nilly procure hig...

If the objective is to protect against the drones. Then trying to protect everything thing will become too expensive in a hurry. So much so, that the enemy would have bankrupted us a long before firing his first shot. We will have to be smart and decide what is the infrastructure that must be protec...

Was it between Mk1 to Mk1A, or Mk1 to Mk2?

I watched that interview live. It's not that I disagree with what Dr.Mearshimer said.

I have a different question.

Will the USA continue to exist as a super power, by 2040s. Given all the internal difficulties it's facing.

And I’m sure that the explosions and killings that took place in Iran were not the work of Mossad, were they? Let's assume for a minute that they were conducted by Mossad. Why should those people not have been targetted? Iran is a country that has threaten to wipe out Israel from the map. The peopl...

I have a conspiracy theory about Rahul Gandhi. He is a dynast in a party, the stewardship of which has resulted in the loss of his grandmother and father. He was afraid for the safety of his mother after 2004. Could it be that he has decided to destroy the Congress party, root and branch? If the Con...

How do you know that it's Israel that was killing people in Iran? Has Iran presented any evidence of Israeli involvement? Or have they tried and convict anyone for those killings? All we have is a lot of noise and little concrete evidence of anything. We have a lot more evidence of Iran backing both...

The more important questions to ask is how many such days can Israel and it's backers have. Before, the Iranian attacks start hitting targets.

One option would be escort and protection of only Indian owned merchant ships. Then again Indian nationals are part of the crew of a lot of international merchant marine. Extend protection to Indian commerce in the following way. 1) Any ship, originating from anywhere in the world to any port in In...

My distress is anti piracy and disaster ops will cut into IN.fighting ability. Maybe designate only certain ships are tasked to this mission. The size of the Indian Navy has to increase as our economy and trade grows. That's the only way we can keep our sea lanes open and safe from unfriendly powers.

Pratyush

I dont get why GoI is not open to a strategic investment in Embraer and use their planes for our defense needs. Great opportunity IMO and Brazil will be open to it IMO. Their has to be a business case for such an investment. Either the IAF through the MOD or the Ministry of civil aviation has to ma...

A2A missiles are not purchased at regular intervals. It is a rare event. However, in a higher threat environment it would be prudent to stockpile more. The question is, and I am not keen to know the official answer to, as on today how many of the Sukhois and other a/c are Astra capable. Most likely...

Pratyush

The logical reasoning from IAF maybe that they have enough stockpile of imported A2A BVR missiles in their kitty and it may not make economical sense to order more Astra Mk1 at this time but as more and more Tejas Mk1A joins the IAF fleet, they may order in the next 3-4 years. Once Astra Mk2 is rea...

Ton for ton of displacement, the Indian SSK is going to be more expensive than the verginia class submarines of the USN. So the argument of costs is not really justified. The problem is the brass.

Looking at the map posted by Rakesh. It becomes clear that the the Indian Navy is not going to be operating in the South China sea using conventional submarines.
