Hitesh,<BR>Got any more info on the Arjun?Does that mean the army IS kinda happy with the Arjun but for the logistics part?

GD,<BR>You'll be dead by then or are you planning on doing a Rip wan vinkle?

And i forgot...<BR>The t90 has the shtora 1 Self protection system for use against being targetted by atgms...both laser guided AND wire guided.So the allusion to vulnerability to air launched atgm's is a bit off the mark.<P>The arena goes even one step further...but that is not part of the indian d...

Somnath,<BR>The Refleks (successors of the svir) arelaser beam guided rounds are atgms with tandem warheads...they are meant to engage far targets~5 kms.The svir was meant to engage till ~4kms.Upto 6 may be carried...cost considerations will vary the loadout too.When the IA originally wanted to upgr...

Hope they fixed the fcs and the armour holds up...Paul Lakowski had reported that it appeared to be steltextolite fiber composite which doesnt hold up in front of long rod penetrators.<p>[This message has been edited by nitin (edited 22-01-2001).]

Bobj,<BR>Rest assured!!

Hi,<BR>Some good news.A day or so back,i,karthik and satish (another BR Lurker http://www.bharat-rakshak.com/ubb/wink.gif )got a chance to converse with a guy in the know about the lca.....<BR>Nandkarni be bloody damned!<P><B>They have done a miracle!!</B>Kota Harinarayana is speaking the truth when...

Rama,<BR>"In any case, exporting more than this limited number may not be desirable given that HAL will have to fill a hungry IAF too, which may want upto 200 if the LCA lives up to it's promise."<P>I concur..the production capacity of both the alh and the lca will be stretched to its limi...

Hi,<BR>Austin...at the end of that lamented thread;-),my conclusion was the same...that the phased array for the su30mki~zhuk27.<BR>BTW,the no11m was supposed to be the standard fit for the su27m=su35 which went on to be the su37 with tvc...<BR>The no11m has had a troubled history and one wonders wh...

Quadraplex fbw is ,iirc,nothing more than quadraplex redundancy....one set of channels/controllers fail,the other(2nd) takes over.if that fails then the 3rd takes over and so on...<P>Note that the above is more sophisticated then our rivals' fc1...it has a single<I> analogue </I> fbw system with a h...

Austin,<BR>Are you sure that we are going in for the Zhuk-27 Phased array radar?I thought we were acquiring the NIIR NO11m radar.I had started a thraed on this sometime back,but it died a graceful death.<BR>Was it in Vayu or some mag?<BR>BTW,BR states it to be the no11m...other sites claim the zhuk....

..."Or is it possible that the LCA will have coventional FCS instead of (a more complex) FBW system?"<P>No chance ,as the a/c is "unstable"...it can fly only when the fbw is validated.A conventional electro-hydraulic system cant do nuts for the lca.<BR>

Abhishek,<BR>when legal means are resorted,imho they should hold weight...when the evidence itself leaks like a sieve....what then??<BR>The nation is above the individual...true,these gentlemen wouldnt have joined the army otherwise...but,it is often used as a means to cover up the truth.<BR>In all ...

Abhishek,<BR>I suggest that you go through the entire "history" of the case instead of just asking around.The samba spy case is indeed a travesty of justice.IMHO,this case and that of the gentleman who was accused of "leaking" the atv secrets is the same...power without safeguard...

Hi,<BR>I will be going off on a tangent here so bear with me http://www.bharat-rakshak.com/ubb/smile.gif <P>A heat projectile literally burns its way through armour,a jet from the tip of the projectile is focused on the armour...and the tank is toast,right?<P>so,the xcd standoff basically refers to ...
