When Dassault Aviation asked HAL and India to provide documents and agreements which Russia and India had agreed on for TOT and manufacturing of Sukhoi-30MKI in India. This was funny. God only knows what the french were thinking when they put up such a request. While Rafale is a good choice we shou...

Thank you for putting it across politely. :rotfl: chackojoseph ji, The word 'encounter' I think was introduced by me in this thread. And if you read it carefully it was not directed at you (I took enough care to draft it for a fellow BRF member). But that is exactly what PS is suggesting. And the d...

Only one nitpick:

The desire for 'equality' in fact ended up [getting used for] creating a deep enemity between two friends which need not have happened at all.

Phillip ji, Su-34 or Tu22 or Tu160 is not of much use for Indians. These are Chindi. Now that the Russians are feeling the heat of the sanctions and unwilling to go to the Chinese as a first resort. How about a co-development of a Perspective Single Role Bomber capable of flying Nirbhays, Brahmos (n...

Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) would be an outfit directing from afar the research for the purposes of an interventionist agenda. Replicating the same in India on one-on-one basis would be like Jahangir signing off the charter of trade thinking Mughals would benefit out of it. IAF has enough p...

Surprising thing is the Do228 apparently has a 7.62 mm machine gun and thus was fully capable of doing the same as is the ICG ship is essentially being 'accused' of. Wonder why the Do228 was not blamed? Had an 'encounter killing' been the intention there is nothing to stop that from happening and be...

The tip off about the boats came from US intel - India TV.

Does that change anything for the doubter?

And if it does then why?

member_20317

chackojoseph ji, Re. First report - Four persons were seen on the boat who disregarded all warnings by the Coast Guard ship vs. New report - Indian Coast Guard commander (North West), Kuldip Singh) Sheoran claimed that the ICG ship had seen only one of the four suspects on board. How are these 2 sen...

To put diesel to fire you either put fire source like a fiery rag or diya-silayi into the diesel giving it sufficient time to vaporise some of the fuel. Alternatively you first vaporise some fuel then compress the vapours about four times more then you would compress petrol and if the momentary spar...

chacko ji, In that case my chronology can be shifted to 3, 4, 5 & 6 but that still would change nothing in the detect identify track loop in surveillance. Overflying can only help in understanding the broad contours. It cannot give names of vessels and there is zero likelihood of identifying per...

Shiv ji, the 4 km is the effective range. Effectiveness could be limited by range resolution also instead of being limited by actual range. 30 mm is merely the biggest of the smaller guns which do sport such a conundrum. chackojoseph ji, IN has 'overall' responsibility for coastal intel too post 26/...

I am not looking at the SOP etc. If CG follows SOP, the Navy will be the first one to know it. Navy is terribly quite. Etc. You want to say NTRO and sleuths are initiating the rendezvous with prime intel and it becomes a Coast Guards SOP to go to Navy to report it. Sorry, not convincing. Doesn't th...

member_20317

chackojoseph ji, I am sure you have hopes for many things and I am equally sure you never 'hoped' for it. Moreover, ICG boat would follow the SOP and keep itself out of the possible range of the suspected weapons but keep the suspect boat within its own range. Both things were easy to achieve. Moreo...

Vipul Dave ji welcome to the wonderland. These guys are just ragging a new guy in the school. But they are right. Aspect ratio affects glide performance not the wing area (or wing loading). Better wing loading (increased area) is essentially to give better climb rate. From your own wiki link for F-1...

Praveen Swami must be an idiot. Must see his pic to see how an idiot looks like. If the boat was carrying HSD then it still would not have 'exploded' (reported) and there still would have been ample time for the occupants to abandon (but no survivors reported), despite a direct hits in the fuel cont...

One channel Live India was reporting 2 more suspicious boats near Porbandar. Coast Guards looking for these. But only one channel is reporting this so may be a false alarm.

From the negotiations POV on the matter of "100% liability will require 100% control": Any govt. of the day would commit a political hara kiri if they even appear to have dumped Rafale for JSF. Some quarters would be waiting for just this sort of thing. GoI can actually dump it but cannot ...
