I have always said on this forum people tend to ascribe too much power and motive to babus when it comes to decisions being made on the ground when it comes to fighting a war . While everyone has different opinion there is one thing I agree with what Tsarkar says I.e. there is a lot of overhead even...

These days everything is digital explode a big enough EMP and right from fuel pumps to radar controls and commn equipment everything will get fried ; along with that take out the local power grid and ATC and most of the infra is rendered useless.

Hey people can have an opinion and most importantly a perspective ; let's see it this way AM Nohwar has seen both phases i.e. when he was flying initially , TSP did not have the AIM 120 and then in late 2000s they got new AIM 120 C5s , we haven't inducted any BVR AAM after R-77 (Mica being medium ra...

Karan as much as I like your data you have been missing from the dark side for too long ; I wish if it was as simple as military does not have funds or MoD has been the bottle neck . Anyways not a place for those rants , more when we meet .

Meerut and vulnerable ? That area has strong religious fault lines it was a relatively safe BJP seat. BJP wins whenever there is Hindu consolidation.

NEZ estimations however sophisticated i.e. even if it's a figure arrived at after computing launch altitude and bogey's velocity vector will never be able to account for biggest factor here i.e. the terrain .

negi

Don't know about range thingy I don't think such data is ever shared out in open except for cases where we know of existing AIM 120 intercepts and at what altitude and range were they carried out . However I do agree with Austin's point that the system will give you enough indication as to whether t...

^ Err even before Abhi would know of a AIM 120 being fired the MKIs would know before either-way for they were the target not Abhi , point I am making is this RoE is being over emphasised upon no one cares about it . MKIs did not fire as they were not in position to engage it is as simple as that. A...

negi

Abhi was cleared to engage, he didnt violate the ROE. He just pressed home his attack *despite* being warned of the risk. Well which means there was no RoE it cannot exist for some and not for others ; it only means MKIs and others did not engage as I said earlier simply because they were not in a ...

Dhanush is sort of like enhancements done along with licence manufacture of Bofors the intersection between the two is huge ; ATAGs uses exact same breech type and loading mechanism , exactly similar recuperator layout and even the Muzzle brake . However everything is much bigger on ATAGs and obviou...

negi

SAM at least one can understand as we did not have time to issue a NOTAM and free up the airspace for using medium or long range SAMs (because pakis were still far from ground bases). However RoE thing is obviously either a case of we trying hard to come up with stuff to support a pov or worse if tr...

negi

I don't buy RoE thing beyond a point it comes to what is the right thing to do , for some weird reason the same RoE did not apply to Abhinandan. Secondly on this forum I always get amused by some arguments , while it took pages and pages of discussions and hundreds of man hours of analysis of photos...

The pattern is consistent with everything Russian i.e. when B2 came Tu-160 blackjack had to do everything better fly faster, bigger payload , longer range . Same with when F-15s arrived on the scene the Russians introduced the Flanker . This could largely due to the fact that they have a vast landma...

negi

If two missiles from completely different manufacturers differ in range by that much on paper one cannot tell much it's not like both go out and get range calibrations done against a common standard , mostly the real data is only known to those who have fired them in trials and actually seen them wo...

negi

We hardly bought a platform on pure merit , our acquisitions on our end were mostly influenced by whom we were courting at that time , there was a phase when we bought mostly British stuff latter sold us whatever was nearing end of it's life , then we got closer to Russians and we got some love due ...

negi

Everyone who said no to us before has come around ; there was a time Amreeka blocked even spares of Sea King to us ; when we will have enough moolah (read big enough market) and now with EU economy already under stress in few years time we shouldn't be surprised if MBDA comes around and is ok integr...

There are only 36 Rafales using Meteors but 270 Su-30s which can potentially use the Astra now that it is integrated with the Bars radar. I don't understand how Astra's success or failure depends on the Meteor acquisition. I never said any of what you are implying , I am only saying that IF , IF IA...

negi

I don't regard Astra a science project however I know our forces better Astra gives nothing more than what R-77 gives may be marginally better however it's coming in 2020 , IAF with new Rafales would want better you want to place a bet there ? That mention of SFDR etc is a science project simply be...

negi

Our science projects will always remain n years away , we better buy Meteor for anyways Rafales are coming at least they and one last upgrade of M2Ks might be able to use Meteors. Others will use the usual mix of hodgepodge which jokers in our system like to go with. Saar did you read my post about...

negi

I dont think this IAF not confident in R77 is true, then IAF would not have ordered soo many SU30 or upgraded MiG 29, Mig 21 to fire R77 or IN would have ordered INS VikramAditya plus Mig 29K. Plus M2000 upgradedversions also didnt fire MICA. Simple reason ROE, once Amraam were fired Su30 had to sp...

I would have never said this but since we already have the C17s might as well get few more for Phalcon + , unit cost is in same ballpark as A330 , its more rugged and we already fly it . We anyways cannot build anything in similar league in finite time. It also goes well with a nation that wants to ...

Arjun has done it's share of 26 Jan parades , now it's time for some other project . Making in India is one thing but using something made in India for war is another, latter may not happen for quite some time . ATAGs too got accepted as it's based on Bofors template , original stuff has trust defic...

Milards have no work but luxury of cherry picking on high TRP issues , they will get corner plots in some gobmint layout , retire there and participate in award wapsi or candle light marches , the dumbest of the lot might get to chair a high powered committee to investigate some riot or ghotala in d...

Even more unlikely. China has a fairly advanced DEW program. But if you use a DEW, you don't blow up a satellite. Well there is only fleeting reference to a debris generating event near the satellite nothing more nothing less , also if there was a ASAT launch via air/surface such an event cannot go...

negi

Barath excellent points , I won't be surprised if our gold plated imports will have to be babied with their own ammo supply ; aise chootiyape ke liye hi hum jane jate hain (we are known for such things) .

negi

Well it need not be an ASAT missile right , may be some sort of laser/directed energy weapon was used and why do we have to assume only lizard would do that maybe someone else could also do it , someone who doesn't like our growing capabilities .

Looks like missile making can be like make you own style pizza. Beg to ask how the aluminium body Brohmos survive atmosphere reentry àfter the bellistic flight? Pizza making is also an art not many can make a good one , anyways what is harder way to extend range ; by making an exotic engine or go b...

Phalcon was not even near the engagement area , the most powerful airborne radar in that entire region at that time was the Phalcon , I think we need not discuss idiotic claims.

negi

Brahmos is a pretty beefy missile no point doing this 300-400 and then 500 extensions, slap on it a thick booster that still keep it ship deployable and extract a range of around 1500 km where initial phase remains ballistic and we lob it at high altitude and it dives into the ramjet phase . It's a ...

I personally also do not agree with a set pattern in our narrative i.e. when we talk about arming the forces or lack thereof suddenly the military becomes good and the MoD/babus become evil then when context moves to fielding an indigenous platform like Arjun/Tejas or whatever military becomes bad a...
