Psst N3...the rank was actually 20 in the days when we had 'School-Assignment-Support' aka (SAS) enabled.

Speaking of buggies et al,
AM (isn it?) had a stall offering the Hummer to the IA.
As one Indian 'Panzer Oberst' commented on that-- I can probably get half a regiment of T-72s for the price of one hummer.

HeHe--- As someone asked me at Defexpo-What joy do you guys get from finding out so much info? :) Dekho-Rupak and the delhi crowd visited everything in detail and took pix with digital cameras.I was only picking up freebies as nobody would 'know English' when you ask them anything. Frankly, it was a...

I spent 12 hours over 2 days this time and looking at the digital cameras with Maz and Rupak,wisely decided not to take too many pics with my poor old slr.

Exhibition was fun but somehow I missed the screaming engines one heard at Aero India

Hi SVerma, Thanks for ordering the videos.

Well,I am not too happy with the name -but oh well.

BTW, One fallout of the Lancer is this-Now the ANEs fire at any chopper...even casevac cheetahs which used to be spared earlier as they were carrying casualties. After the lancer turned up with its weaponry,they fire first to be ont he safer side. And IJTs for SKAT? No way can that be cleared. Anywa...
