Re: Indian Missiles and Munitions Discussion
If somehow if such a system is developed missile has to decelerate rapidly, the scramjet cannot operate at the reentry speed so essentially slowing down to Mach 4-5 which missile defense system can shoot down (as mentioned above there are few ABM that can intercept RV). Why not just add another sol...

Re: LCA News and Discussions
A question for my curious mind. We are importing a very expensive Advanced Jet Trainer Hawk from UK. What stops us from making our own Basic Jet Trainers, Intermediate Jet Trainers and Advanced Jet Trainers considering that existing Kaveri engine can be downrated for use in these aircrafts. Also I d...

Re: China Military Watch - Jan 11, 2011
That is the difference between research & development and stealing outright. With your own research, one uses the words "could" "will". In copying others' goods that are known to work, these conditions don't apply. That is why the speed is great but the output is poor. I am ...

Re: China Military Watch - Jan 11, 2011
That's just political double talk. All politicians talk like that. He said "could be tested", not "will be tested". He could just as easily have said "the Kaveri could be tested in the Starship Enterprise in 423.5 years" and it would be just as valid a statement. Get i...

Re: China Military Watch - Jan 11, 2011
[/quote] There is a Major flaw in your logic. Velcro was actually used in space. Kaveri was never used and will never be used in an military fighter. Now, if NASA decided Velcro was crap, never used it and sold it to school bag makers, then your logic would hold 100%. Otherwise, no dice friend.[/quo...

Re: China Military Watch - Jan 11, 2011
Dear Raj, I think both the points you mention are correct to some extent. Certainly, Chinese aircrafts/carriers/submarines are not state of the art (nowhere comparable to raptors, Virginia subs or their CVNs). All the same they make up for lack of quality through sheer numbers, that can overwhelm o...

Re: China Military Watch - Jan 11, 2011
I am a little curious to see that we dismiss all Chinese advances as fan boy innovation. There can be only two reasons for this- 1) - It is a classic Psyops of Chinese and people here know about it and they are calling their bluff. (Which is Ok to me as I am not as aware of Chinese advances in these...

Re: Indian Naval Discussion
I SMELL A RAT There seems to be a conspiracy to ensure that IN does not get the AC. Or Russians are playing dirty so that IN finally says it does not want the AC and it goes to Russian Navy, paid by us. :(( :(( In that case IN can cancel the Mig 29K complement it was buying from Russia and Russian ...
