Man, What is going on. I was already confused by was it Prithvi 1,2,3,4, or 5 or was it 2 stage or 1, was it baan or Sangarika or Tirshul or Akash. Now even this thread is changing shapes. It was 9 pages long last I was reading it, now it is 7. It had many posts and now it has fewer. There is one an...

Well remebre the Trishul news how it was suddenly 50 km intercept randge and 300mm dia (or was it radius) missile. There was an India Today article on 100 (or 50) achievers in India in various fields (was few years ago, few as in maybe 4-9 years ago). It had articles on Misala scientists from DRDO a...

Thanks,
Arun.

So in my limited understanding, it is futile to argue what the interception missile was, could be Prithvi or anything else. But nevertheless, interception in the first attempt is a very big deal. Kudos DRDO.

This thread is almost hijacked!! but then I have learned many new things. Anyways, Is there anything that can be done to rescue captured soldiers during wartime (or that would be a major distraction from the war at hand). Three ideas that has been sort of suggested here are - 1.You publicize the cap...

I am surprised at the hostility that Digvijay is facing. I don't endorse his views, I don't approve it (but I don't know if he is wrong or not, you see I am not all knowing). He has been polite and within the parameters of discussion. Can we allow him to discuss without being hostile to him. Having ...

The other thing we cannot divorce from the situation is the general climate, the self confidene. Today even giving up an inch of land is unthinkable, remember, we just faught a war with a newclear enemy over a land where hardly any indian lived (Tiger hill and all) or a blade of grass grew (Compared...

Will it be proper to say that Gen. Choudhary almost belw the war for us (retreat till Beas!! Give me a break) and it was Gen Harbax Singh who carried the day for us in 1965.

Sir, Lets not trash every criticism on flimsy ground. This guy might be jealous might not be but sure he has the credebilty (the knowledge and experience) to comment on Saras... On face of it, a plane that is designed to carry a weight of 1500 kg, 1000 kg increase in weight is sure a kiss of death. ...

I guess paki as as usuall lying about the intent. I do not think it is an naswer to Phalcon. As testing a missile does not change anything about the Phalcon deal.

I also feel that we have piled too much on Nehru without knowing British trecheary.

Rudra,
The only change I would make is instead of 4 desert 'strike' formation, have 3 or 2 but have 1 mountain 'strike' or highly mobile formation. Remember, the only land that we will keep after

Giving Noble peace prize to Gandhi is like giving Pope John Paul award to Jesus Christ.

I dont understand why we want to export Brahmos to Iran (and this has nothing to do with Iran is a fundamental state or not). We can coperate with Iran is so many ways, but that should not include missiles and WMD. We have good friends that have mortal fear of Iran missiles/WMD (justified or not) an...

By your defination both of them are vertical, what is being debated though is how do you stack these MIRV's, if you stack them one over the other so that their verical axis is one and the same, we were calling it vertical. If you put these MIRV side by side (still the long side vertical) so that ver...

Why all the elements of the MIRV have to be in the same horizontal plane. Cannot they be stacked vertically, i.e. One above the other?

George, How is the crow soup going!! Btw, you need lot of telementry data when you are firing a missile (If it has any other purpose than a show -off or actual deployment). To set up that kind of facility you need lots of sensors - Lots of money. Apperantly in India this kind of facility exists eith...

Mind you, In head on the doopler shift is very high (since both plane are going in opposite direction, relative velocity is very high) but in follow on pursuit, the doppler shift is very less (and can be zero if both plane had the same velocity), therfore this range of tracking is always less.

Subra, IMHO, deleting Rahul Bedi article is a bad idea. I know this SOB has an agenda, but he is the only few reporters who write about Indian arms/army and is widely read.

Trust the DDM's to confuse the world. Guys sit back and enjoy. At least Tim suggestion is original. If this BM is ship to ship, we are first in the world.

Micheal, The question that you are asking is not only a technological question but also of tactics.First at the technical aspect, Mig27 does have laser ranging (the easier one) and various versions of Mig27 have the laser designator also. The Indian plane has it or not is not known, though BR ...

yes, IAF is using IT in a big way. A system developement(I guess more on line of HR system) was awarded to TCS in 1997 for 25 carore to its Delhi office, (executed from RK Puram). I guess IAF is still using a very inefficient systems for critical operetions, a 'smart' system to track down the ...
