Re: Arjun – To be or not to be (?)

Harry: If you would believe some of the reports spread about India then you would conclude: The Indian armed forces is manned by a bunch of fools who have no battle worthy weapons. The defence budget is pocketed by the politicians and Generals. So IN ships are rustbuckets that don't leave port; IAF ...

Re: Arjun – To be or not to be (?)

The de-escalation is due to pressure from the US- and that too brutal economic pressure(travel adviseries, loss of IT edge etc.)

The US needs Pak and so pressured India to back down.

It is amazing to see the enormity of disinformation spread about the Indian armed forces.

Re: Arjun – To be or not to be (?)

I dunno why the world is out to prove that the Indian armed forces are a worn out, unusable lot!! :mad: And the use of ' unnamed defence sources ' is hilarious!! Why, Aditya, the IAF is a bunch of lotus eaters who fly only 10% of the hrs of the PAF! One PAF flying hr = 5 IAF flying hr!! Believe what...

Re: India's Air Defence Network

The future belongs to 'Dreamers'!! India's scientists have put us on the map by bringing our dreams to fruition with the LCA, Arjun, IN ships, Prithvi, Agni, etc.

The more they dream the higher they will take us.

Re: Arjun – To be or not to be (?)

The solution to everyone's woes is to form a BR Strategic Consultants, Inc. Have Nitin (President of SC) shoot off letters to the CAS and the PM, MOD, GF etc about the value of Arjun/Karna!! Seriously, I think BR needs to put in its advice to the above. That is the duty of a citizen. To listen or no...

Re: Arjun – To be or not to be (?)

Great Post Raj! The powers that be are doing immense harm to the country (financially and defense wise) by not inducting a great Tank into the IA. You are right, we still have this 'foreign is better' mindset. We should immediately go in for 500 Arjuns and 500 Tank-EX (Karan). The Wartsila engine ca...
