India seems to be planning for all pieces to fall in place by the 2012-14 period.

The economy
The Missile programme
The Naval / Airforce / Army development.

There seems to be something that the long term planners have in mind.

Not even with a proxy server. Someone needs to upload this to youtube or make available as a rapidshare link.

Should expect PRC to make peaceful noises soon. We have to remember, that having all the infrastructure on the ground to our satisfaction is still quite some time off. BRO is going to start the arunachal roads in two years time. The airport upgradations and deployment will also take 10 years, as pe...

The IAF already has plans for 4 advanced landing grounds in Ladakh to be opened, some for An-32 operations. All these are already functioning for helicoptor ops I think.
1. Daulat Beg Oldi
2. Fukche
3. Chushul
4. Nyoma

Money to the Pak army = Money to Kiyani and the crore commanders.
Money to the Pak police = Money to Zardari.

Play both sides of the coin, more competition in the market improves services to the consumer = the US.

For the media this is a novelty, I am sure that the government has certainly not discouraged this at all. Women scientists involved in something as cutting edge as developing fighter planes, and satellite launchers and satellites and ICBMs is great news. The same hype surrounded Dr APJAK. He was pro...

Maybe this should go in the Indian psyche thread because his attitude reminds me of an incident I witnessed recently. I think you (?) described the incident with Indra Nooyi Pepsi CEO behaving like a stiff upper lip upitty gora Memsahib at a function held by indians in the US. She would normally be...

How about "Peshwa Bajirao bandra-worli sea link"? Or just 'Bandra-worli sea link' or 'Mumbai 1 sea link' wrt mumbai's emu train network. This seems to be targetted more towards bringing people from Mumbai's suburbs into the city and out. The stations are spaced out pretty far. This is nowh...

The Base is just south of Seattle - home of Boeing.

Mumbai and Maharashtra need to think beyond. They already have railway stations and airports and so many places named after Shivaji.

And you'll find Israeli tourists everywhere in India these days. It is a sort of a mecca and tradition for the Israelis, who are fresh out of military conscriptions to replenish their souls in India. J&K and Goa seem to be the hot spots. Varanasi, strange as it may sound is for the more theologi...

The commonwealth flats will be sold off as Delhi development authority flats after the games are over. This was in the news earlier.

So much for the local politician theory.

Gagan

Every nook and corner of India have their heros, some literary, some historical, some from our armed forces. Achievers who have dedicated their lives to the nation. Why does local politics take it upon themselves to promote these people? Are the local politicos asleep? They should make and issue nat...

Other than NWFP, which is a gone case, the others will rapidly shed their deep flirtation with islam the moment that country breaks up. Pakistan punjab will face some problems because they are now highly madarsaized, with lots of training camps and weapons floating around, not much of an economy oth...

The more the chinese navy expands in the South China sea, the more the nations around there will be alarmed, the more they will engage in military co-operations with regional powers and superpowers. All this recent nationalist moves in these nations when bases of superpowers were closed, will do a U...

I think the next terror attack will be: 1. Directed against the personnel who are engaged in construction of the hydel projects in J&K. These pakis can't bring in enough explosives to cause any damage of significance to the infrastructure. The only thing they can do is plain cheap terror - which...

The utility of the string of pearls is not during war, they are useful as listening and replenishment posts for PLAN when there is peace. The chinese are well aware that their assets in the pearls will be the first to be taken out, simply because these bases lie in areas where the Indian Navy holds ...

The russians did have a follow on to the titanium hulled Alfa Class subs. These were the four Sierra class subs. These featured a double titanium hull. Last I heard, three were in service, one was retired. The Sierra was the precursor to the Akula class subs, the hull of the sierra resembles the aku...

Well well well, Rs 50,000 per month onlee for being Jinnah's relative? How many are willing to bet this won't last more than a few months. :roll: It looks like the Pakistanis are pulling out all stops to bring about a semblance of national unity.

And these are just the clan leaders in NWFP. If we include the clan leaders all over pakistan, specifically Pakjab, this is going to get even more interesting. Someone should whisper to the pakhtoons that the bordering areas of pakjab have a lot of loot and wimmen, and their energies should be direc...

And also remember this Kaveri has acheived its designated targets without cutting edge tech incorporated into it. Single crystal blade tech and the like, where we are still at the bottom of the learning curve, and I am sure many other small and significant areas. All this because the equipment and t...

A chain might be as solid as can be, but it is only as strong as the weakest link. Those switches are probably required by ground maintenance to service the aircraft on the ground. But allowing a design where a single point failure can lead to a catastrophe and a loss of an aircraft and endanger its...

The only reason why China will support a Hamid Gul is because of the guy's usefulness against India. He is a useful tool to direct terror ire against India, perhaps he is even the designated authority to whom Pakistan's JDAM option is entrusted with. He could also be the person who was the unofficia...

Rishirishi, Zardari just wants to stay on in power. Just as sonia gandhi just wants to stay on in power, their respective nations be damned.

So what will be GOI's response? Air strikes? Naval Blockade? Personally I don't think that the Markaz at Muridke will be targetted. It is well withing artillary range from the Amritsar border. Problem is, that muridke is a big closely packed slum town, there will be massive collateral damage. Althou...

This choice of Hamid Gul in the list of wanted men is quite interesting! Hamid Gul traditionally known as the Grand-daddy of Jihadism was the intelligence officer who personally handled Osama Bin Laden. He was ISI chief when the US was driving out the soviets from Afghanistan. Now retired, he was la...

Raja Bose ji, These terror types are not tortured to begin with. He has a very long story to tell, and torture will not bring it out. Torture is used to extract some very small and vital piece of information that is critical enough to be needed immediately - say for instance where a bomb is located ...

No nation gives a carte-blanche to another for action that has the potential for all out war. The US will also not. What the US will do however is: 1. Tie Pakistan's hands while India does some mud busting in POK - a most futile exercise. 2. Go full flow for a while with India in subverting Pakistan...

Here is a dilemma quite similar to the one Atal Bihari Vajpayee faced during the Kargil Crisis. India had to demonstrate to the world that it is throwing out the occupying forces out of territory under its control, without any collateral damage to Pakistan (A most idiotic and foohardy thing to do bu...

Those camps are not worth the bomb you drop. We need to give a befitting response that destroys the Paki H&D.... Karachi port, Gadwar port, ISI headwaters It has to be very symbolic... India can't attack overtly any of these targets either. This will mean war, and bring out international platit...

I think that the government of India is waiting for a Pervez Musharraf type announcement from Pakistan to let if off the hook. The Dork media is already brain dead enough, and will paint such a move by Pakistan as a MAJOR MAJOR victory for India. Alongwith letting off pakistani terror pressure at le...
