So that we dont have to start from scratch and reinvent the wheel, i guess it would make sense to develop on the tech we already had in our country decades ago !

Guess this is more appropriate for the whine thread ! :oops:

Re: Artillery Discussion Thread

It is not as if we are going to war with Pakistan as soon as the guns arrive.. If the army could manage during Kargil, i think in peace time, they should be able to manage ... Sir, you might be right but you forget that we have added ZILCH since Kargil ( the soltam conversions dont seem to have don...

Re: Artillery Discussion Thread

What sense does it make buying them then if it cant be used on the western front ? I don't think deployment of the artillery would require approval from US ... There would be a crazy media hue and cry if the artillery couldn't be deployed on the western front ... It would be a significant compromis...

Re: Artillery Discussion Thread

I doubt we will be allowed to deploy the light arty bought via FMS on the western front. Only on the eastern. There will be the usual end user restrictions which we will agree to.

Re: The Indo Russian PAK-FA Project

Is it supposed to fly in Tuesday? Yes, the rumor is. In russian forums about military aviation some people are proclaiming that it will fly 28.02.10 at Komsomolsk-na-Amure. All Suhoi's VIPs are already there. Rumor is that even Pogosyan himself is there. I guess you mean 28.01.10 .... If its 28. 02...

Re: Indian Missiles and Munitions Discussion

In the latest DRDO newsletter (link below - check Page 5 Missile Systems Cluster), Nirbhay is conspicuous by its absence in their goals for 2010. Unless its all hush-hush. IMO Nirbhay has more importance in the eyes of BRF jingoes than those of DRDO. http://www.drdo.org/pub/nl/2010/jan10.pdf The Mi...

Re: Indian Naval Discussion

Why is the aircraft looking so old and wared. Aren't we getting the new ones? Naah, i don't think so. Its probably the same aircraft as in this pic taken in Russia earlier this year. I'll blame it on the shadows and bad picture quality. Add later: Check it out. This one looks even better. Though it...
