Moskova had the Fregat 3D radar, and has individual FCR for S300, OSA and its 6 CWIS systems, Moskova also has Radar jamming + chaff providing another layer of passive defence. I also read somewhere that Ukraine used a single modified Kh35 (Uran) subsonic AShM to take down Moskova. Cross posting wh...

Looks like severe weather might affected the FCR radar performance? The Moskva has giant blind spot for its S-300 system only 180 degree coverage it uses outdated OSA Sam to cover that blind spot. It’s ironic Russia noted they shot down a drone a day ago by Grigorovich class frigate (Talwar class s...

Question for Gurus: I had 3 shots of Pfizer in the US. Now I am in India and want to get the 4th shot. Since Pfizer is not available in India, which vaccine available in India would be the best for a booster shot for me? I am 65 TIA Logically you should get a whole virus just to make sure your body...

Releasing people from prison and expecting them to flight never works. These people will turn on u in a blink and make deal with the enemy. I think this move is in desperation.

Karan - I don't think its fair to accuse John of western propaganda, I don't think he is doing any propaganda. Did you see the video of the analysis posted by Lt. Gen Syed Ata Hasnain?

I am also very surprised that some Indians are able to sympathize with the Ukrainian Nazi regime, which allows mockery of the non-white population of Ukraine. In this case, Ukrainian soldiers and party activists mock young women of Indostan origin (Gypsies). https://ibb.co/VSW2mCM https://ibb.co/37...

A summary of Russia's order of battle (ORBAT) for this war, as far as I can make out: Organisation : A Military district has 2 to 3 Combined Arms Armies. Each CAA usually has 2-3 divisions and 2 brigades of Artillery. Southern Military district: 58th, 8th and 49th Army + 1 airborne division and 1 N...

A "massacre" was needed because after Syria and the White Helmets, no one would believe a claim of "chemical weapons strike" coming from Democratic Party NSA or DOS officials. A massacre is a nicely gruesome event that provides plenty of dead bodies for "evidence", but...

I ams surprised to see how effective the S-300 SAMs are against 4.5 gen high flying aircrafts.

Unified information warfare against Russia using all points of attack. Including attempting to induce panic in Indian defence circles. Its not unified attack against Russia - its mainly the worry that Russia can't supply avionics because they have little ability to fabricate semiconductor and sourc...

Also to remember - under Modi if India decides to launch an attack then it will own it and be proud of it. The new dispensation doesn’t do a missile attack and claim that it was a training exercise.

If this was a mistake then it is unpardonable and not acceptable. I am also surprised at the hyper jingoism in BRF where instead of going into a technical discussion we are treating it like a joke. What happens if If a mistake happens on a ballistic missile, what happens if the mistake is on China’s...

What is Putin's end game? I am serious. So you destroy and defang a country. Then what? Form a partnership with India and China versus the rest of the world? Is that it?

I am surprised to see that Russia is dragging this forever. The more they delay, the biggest chances of failure.

They probably are hoping to get a huge cache of weapons from the west and also planning to hold out against the invading forces by using civilians and foreigners as hostages.

Having some experience with flying I can say that you can't depend on weather radars to detect local patches of cloud, fog or mist. Weather radars depend on large suspended water particles and strong weather patterns - and a pilot can't substitute a weather radar in leu of VFR rules. If a flight got...

French reactors on subs are LEU with < 7% enrich while India is using MEU with > 30% enrich. India certainly wants to move to HEU model so that reactor doesn't need to be mended for 30 years and thus reducing the operational costs. Hence french reactors doesn't make much sense.
