USA has reportedly adopted this ammo and using it, so that is the verdict. The point I am making it that this ammo may actually be the solution to Indian INSAS carbine problems. Given the fact that everywhere terrorists are fought by using the airforce, artillery, armour etc and India fights with I...

Are military forces deployed under UN resolutions in other countries acting per this description?

Not to my knowledge.

US also does not recognise the International Court of Justice at the Hague.

They are in a stand alone mode in such tricky issues.

The US is a law by themselves it appears.

While delta wings are critical to achieving high lift for supersonic flight, they also have a number of disadvantages for less high-performing aircraft. They require high landing and takeoff speeds and long takeoff and landing runs, are unstable at high angles of attack, and produce tremendous drag ...

So whats the verdict? What you said was right. But the US is not a signatory of the Hague Declaration III and reluctant participant in Declaration IV. Where the U.S. did sign on, however, was with the Hague Convention IV of 1907, Article 23(e) of which Annex states: "…it is especially forbidde...

Shiv, One could not explain the issue better. These days we have rubber soled boots and not the leather ones with hobnails!

Kanson, I can neither confirm nor deny what Admiral Bhagwat has said. Yet, one wonders about the procurement policies, more so when it is the government realm. Bofors is a case in point where an excellent weapon was denied to the IA because of political sleaze (if indeed) and shenanigans. It is good...

One of the first assignments on Mehar Singh's task list was the relief of Poonch. Poonch was an isolated garrison which was cut off from motorable roads due to enemy incursions, and it was left to Mehar Singh to supervise the air relief of Poonch. Mehar Singh personally flew a Harvard aircraft and l...

An MBT is designed to be very mobile and able to tackle most types of terrain. Its wide tracks disperse the heavy weight of the vehicle over a large area, resulting in a specific ground pressure that might be lower than that of a man's foot. The types of terrain that do pose a problem are usually ex...

RayC Sir, I have a small question for you, if you don't mind answering that is. I think you mentioned earlier that Indian troops do re-use AK-47s and ammo captured from pakis. The question I have is, are the captured AKs Chinese version or Khyber pass version? Did you and your troops trust any &quo...

If India's military eventually plumps for primarily American equipment, a major reason will be: soldiers, sailors and airmen are completely sick of being gypped through poorly-framed acquisition contracts that entirely favour the foreign suppliers.

The procurement mafia's brazenness is astounding. I agree with Rahul that DRDO has a better chance of selling the Arjun to the Russian army than to the IA.

and let me point out that in each of those cases the turret is still intact, unlike the T-72 where it is blown to smithereens.

Rahul M,

Saw the damaged tanks in Jamwal's post?

How did those happen?

How is it that the over vilgilant Admins and Mods are allowing you to suppress the truth?
