What is more important than a 120mm gun is a 30mm gun for an anti-drone vehicle

As far as unmanned stealth aircraft is concerned, I have a lot of hopes from HAL CATS warrior program. If only they can fit a good turbofan and make it supersonic…

Looking at X and other places, I'm shocked to see blatant racism in American against Indians. Is this something seen on a daily basis, or is this limited to online channels alone ?

What does this sub have that the existing Scorpene (+ DRDO AIP) doesn’t?

There is a lot of celebration in social media regarding the cut in GST (to boost domestic consumption and offset effects of sanctions) and personal income tax earlier. But I’m concerned that the revenue receipts will take a big hit and the fiscal consolidation that was happening (that halved the fis...

Regarding how much bang our nukes should have, there is one thing I haven't seen in this discussion - MIRVs . Assuming that our primary delivery system is going to be ballistic missiles (instead of manned aircraft) and assuming that MIRVs are going to be deployed on all the K-* and Agni missiles, it...

Navarro presuming to lecture on whom to target (Brahmins) shows the US establishment is in very deep doo doo.

The biggest problem is that there are no destroyers in pipeline. The P18s are nowhere close and even then, it seems to be a cruiser. Also, IN only places piece-meal orders. Given that there are now many more shipyards capable of building warships (in addition to MDL), such as GRSE, CSL, GSL and perh...

The pipeline of frigates and destroyers is getting dry. P17Bs and P18s are not ordered yet. There are only two each of P17As and upgraded Talwar being built at GSL to look forward to. After that, it is only NGMV to look forward to.

Given our construction times, this doesn’t look good.

More than 5 years ago (when there was great bonhomie between US & India), I'd posted this : There is only one import that I'd be happy to pay for under current circumstances: hundreds of F404 engines.

I wonder how many of them were killed when we struck the terrorist sites on day 1. Given the visuals of Pak army brass during the funerals of the terrorists, I think there would definitely have been a few Pak military personnel embedded who got their 72.

Not sure who cancelled. Since there was no point. Both sides know each other’s positions. US delegation was lame duck since all decisions are done by President TanTrump irrespective of the advice given by the delegation.

^^^^ If you are not at the table, you are on the menu.

Though, I suspect Trump will try to invite Zelensky at the last moment, in which case I think Putin will bail. Things will be interesting.

Only two questions:
- Is it possible to turn off both fuel control switches within 1 second of each other ?

This is a literal gold mine. Role of Army during Sindhoor. Has everything from ASLV, armor, IFG, 130mm (thought they were all getting upgraded), anti drone systems.

Some thoughts and analysis … 1. The Baki penchant for saving H&D is a huge weakness. What we claimed officially as the bases hit were only a subset of what we actually did. We don’t know how many LOC posts were destroyed, for instance. This opens up a huge opportunity for covert ops that cause a...

“Such incidents couldn’t occur without support”.

Now that they have condemned it, they have taken adequate action and so likelihood of Bakis going to grey list is remote

Latest open source theory is that the Ram Air Turbine deployed which brings speculation back to dual engine failure and causes of that, because that is supposed to be extremely rare.

^^ I presume this would have an SFDR motor to increase the range (like Astra Mk3). And a dual-mode seeker (like Stunner missile).

I don’t understand the conspiracy theories. Having watched dozens of Air Crash Investigation episodes, there are only a few occasions where malice caused a crash. The Swiss cheese theory says there are usually a lot of process failures that leads to crashes like this, and not a single cause. Hope th...

The more I read about Hydrogen, the less I'm convinced about the logistics. I think it might be much better to convert "Green" Hydrogen to a more storage friendly form such as "Green" Ammonia (if it is possible efficiently) than use in the raw H2 form.

An efficient nuclear battery would be ideal for submarine AIP.
