Wow, sir ji. You are super quick yourself. :) I find the photo fascinating for another reason. The tornado pilot with flight mask on in his cramped cockpit, could only keep up with the Concorde for a few minutes before he had to turn back. The passengers in the Concorde, comfortably seated, might ha...

Manish_P

Ah. Well i hope to be around (might require some lifestyle changes). Also hoping that the fascinating program doesn't get canceled..

Manish_P

Yes, that's a Concorde.

Two questions

The photo claims to be an absolute unique one. Why? and What is the platform from which the photo was taken?

Manish_P

Will be very interested to see it's progress. Do share if any interesting tidbits come your way. Artillery is way up there in my interest pyramid of Mil related disciplines.

Manish_P

My interest in that post was the ultra long range artillery gun (if it can be called that).

One would indeed do so for poor SDREs, but would expect King Khan to have real time monitoring for their uber networked platforms, kind of like we see in Formula 1 (not to mention the decades old space programs) :) I am only half-kidding.

Any idea on the root cause of landing gear failure in the crash of the F22 earlier today ?

One would indeed do s...

AK-200 was the base for AK-12 and AK-400 for AK-15. But what I suggested we keep the Receiver and firing mechanism of AK-103 and make certain cosmetic changes that makes the rifle contemporary. Or we ask them to produce a variant of AK-400 as something our need specifies. It was an either/or situat...

^ The AK-400 was the base prototype for the AK 12 (5.45×39mm) and AK 15 ( 7.62×39mm).

I think we are negotiating for getting production rights of AK 103 (which is said to be planned to be replaced by the AK 15)

Don't intend to derail the thread. Just checked out these videos of 2 guys trying out various rifles (some with and some without optics) over distances.

In such high sensitivity cases, there are quite a few possibilites: Both internal and external Sabotage, False flag, counter-intelligence mis-direction, running double agents (which can go on for years). Of course, it could be genuine bad one. Time will tell.

Their larger economy also permits them to use those much costlier (compared to microlights) jets.
