^^^ A day old video shows the lifting span is now in front of the span control center and about 30m from the lift mechanism supports which are now seen to be completed. The task of attaching the vertical lift span to the supports has to be done in calm seas and low wind speeds. So the moment of tru...

^^^ Has HAL been paid yet by the IA/IAF for those 15? Doesn't matter. They're accounted on an accrual basis, not on cash basis. Even if they sit on receivables, or in the bank account, they're earning interest so it's not a problem. Capital cost can be an issue but HAL is cash rich these days. HAL ...

No one seems to have the 53 enhancement requirements list. I have not seen any evidence that SDR was a last minute requirement. I believe that 2021 order suggests that it may always have been planned. I generally have an ick seeing conjectures stated as facts.
Happy to leave it at that.

JTull

Sir, then these SDR were ordered after the LCA Tejas Mk1A order, HAL then has to work with the Vendor for BNET radios and Design persons and then do this change. No one places order with a supplier until they themselves have an order. With regards to Mk1A, HAL wasn't selling a qualified configurati...

AFAIK, last minute request was for Software Defined Radios (SDR)

In 2021 they ordered 400 BNET SDRs from Israel for the fleet including for Mk1A. That isn't last-minute.

Arrey Bhai, let's say we produce enormous amount of energy using fusion with 1g of tritium inside thorium blanket. You need neutrons and not entire neuclides, and that too at right velocity and flux to allow capture. How do you plan to sustain the reaction at just the right criticality, and transfer...

If the average GST collection is around 2 lakh crore, which translates into $21-22B a month (approx. 240-250B a year), and GoI spending is about $600B a year and the budget deficit is about 5%, then where does the rest of the revenue come from?

GE production limit is to prevent exports and even keep IAF hand to mouth. Any high tempo operations will immediately bring forth serviceability issues. HAL should prioritise bringing production to desh suggesting to GE that it can use its capacity for other things.
