^^ more su-30s http://www.freesmileys.org/emoticons/emoticon-char-038.gif It would be safe to assume that the new ones will all be Super 30s. Begs the question, why aren't they planning to convert all impending Su30s into Super config with an add-on cost? I think we have got a pretty good versatile...

Procurement of additional Su-30 is under progress. Our total numbers are going to be in excess of 270 Su-30s.

I guess its not landing. The tail hook is not lowered. It looks like a touch n go.

Looks like the FMS deals are also covered under the offsets clause. Details about the offset's would be even more interesting.

Thanks Ravi & Ramana. Was just thinking loud.
Saw an interview of Dr.Saraswat by a Telugu News channel guy. Buggers cant even ask questions properly. Was asking how its going to make Bangladesh and China nervous. For gods sake why BD?

MN Kumar

The extra PL will be revealed when MIRV arrives. ;) and you forgot the range which is inversely proportional to PL I thought about it but arent we forgetting that it was tested with a single warhead config and having a 1.5 ton conventional payload isnt what this missile isnt supposed to carry. My o...

There seems to be some info that's not right about Agni 5 specs when you compare it with its predecessor Agn3. Thought the A5 has got lot of new stuff like the composite motors and other new guidance stuff but still thats inside. From the outside and I mean the dimensions of both the missiles seem p...

Saltoro, not Siachen A frequently published Indian analyst has called it a “particularly muscular drama re-enacted by Indian soldiers on the heights” and which neared resolution during the time of Rajiv Gandhi and Benazir Bhutto. “But for one reason or another, especially after Pakistan’s Kargil mi...

Jamwal is it from the production lot or being given as an option?

Was going through Jamwal's Pinaka pics below. DRDO L&T Pinaka TATA Pinaka Found some differences between the L&T DRDO versionand TATA ones. Tata launcher has a stabilizer in the middle and back. It trades off the extra Fuel tank. Also the rotating platform have some minor differences. Overal...

This could be a battlefield tourism vehicle - judging by the size of those windows.

Thats going to be a DDM carrier in a battlefield.

MN Kumar

Sum are you sure about the Rustom. There is a twin turbo plane thats buzzing for thelast couple of weeks with a very distinct sound. Its forward section looks very similar to Rustom.
Added later: I am talking about the Piaggio Avanti P180. This is a regular at old airport.

It seems A5 though canisterised is still rail launched. What would be the challenges of making it road mobile?
Dont see anything near the size of the Topol telar coming out of desh. Guess the better option would be to get some Russia telars.

The timing of the visit is interesting.

Couple of days back there was a news snippet in one the Telugu daily that a GSLV Mk3 mockup has been moved to the launch pad. Apparently to test the different launch mechanisms. There was also a small picture of the mockup on the launchpad. Couldnt find the same in their online version.

MN Kumar

Saw twin lca's (both in grey

) taking off this morning. It looked as if both were doing a bollywood number in the air while trying to get into a formation. Terrific sight.

MN Kumar

Sometimes its better to have a DDM that has no clue on such issues. Keeps the enemy guessing.

MN Kumar

Couple of questions from the video:

At 2:35 mnts is that a Cannon?
Can someone id the HMDS?

A very cool video. I saw it after take off around whitefield. The engine noise was quite different from regular LCA roars. This looked pretty smooth.

Would such radars be useful to us, given the upcoming fisticuffs with China. Sea based X Band Radar It's got insane range and complement a further network of aerostats and ground based radars (longpine). There was a small bit of info that went unnoticed in the A5 launch prep news: http://ibnlive.in...

Jagan is it possible to add a url on his page about the incident for which the Late Group Captain was awarded.
RIP.

Chacko,

Can we have a better resolution of the picture from this news item.
Its a rare sight to see a Dhruv in operation at such high altitudes and senior personnel using it.
