The other thing I was wondering about was, that General Sattar, who was house arrested and then forced to resign. Was he a Qadiani? His last name is the same as Abdus Sattar, the nobel prize winner. I know last names don't really tell if one is Shia / Sunni / Qadiani etc, but just wondering. At the ...

Re: Twin Engine Deck Based Fighter (TEDBF): News & Discussion
AMCA vs ORCA
I think the ORCA can be built much more quickly than the AMCA.
This will be a step in the AMCA process.
This can be made with current materials and processes. The AMCA needs an entirely new building process, RAM coatings, extreme care in building.

Perhaps what the N subs lack comes from Russia.
India probably wants foreign collaboration to outright import those components that domestic industry does not yet make.
They will get a western partner to fill in the gaps
