Pratyush wrote:A nube question, when IAF flies rescue missions, who pays for the flights?

It depends on the department asking for the rescue. They are billed. IAF only pays if pilots have taken their own decision to respond to a distress call.

It does kind of come into the ambit of IAF news and discussions. Such rampant disrespect of those in uniform citing "political pressure and power" is detrimental to national security. Especially after events like Pathankot. I hope GOI of the day lays down stringent rules and regulations a...

^^^ Possible. My gut feel is that this case does not capture the entire spectrum of the people behind the scenes. There are more. They could not wait to get till they had all in the net.

In this case, watch out for those outraging, filing PILs etc. The whole ecosystem of Urban Naxals are crawling out from the woodwork. Matriarchs and Patriarchs of the Naxal herd are being arrested.

Brar sahab, Welcome back. My goal is not to belittle the F-35. I want to take on the stupid bogey of: PAKFA/FGFA is a lemon. Agreed.

... BTW, HS-748 re-engine program seems to be a good idea.

Whether...

I hope the Mk2 is not used as some pie-in-the-sky end goal that cuts into the sales of the Mk1A. (“Let’s cap our Mk1A buy at 84 and wait for the super Mini-Rafale coming down the pike.”) Sorry to say, but that is exactly what will happen. IAF had to be arm twisted to order these 84 Mk1A.

I have a simple question. If Indian army attacks a paki post using Nag missiles, how will the pakis come to conclusion if it was a ground launched version of nag or a chopper/ucav Helina version.

As the budget is tight, these armed UCAVs from US (attached with conditions) are a waste of money. Also, where does IAF/IA plan to use these armed drones? Current doctrine doesn't support it. Keep developing indigenous UAVs/UCAVs. Meanwhile, keep using those Israeli UAVs. Buy a few more in the inte...
