Who was the pilot? That guy must be under so much pressure… Exactly! Everyone must have heaved a sigh of big relief when all three wheels touched the tarmac. Group Captain Debanjan Mondal was the pilot. Both plane and pilot are from ASTE. How does SPT-01 belong to ASTE without yet being delivered b...

Don't hold your breath. Last time the price negotiations between MoD and HAL took 2 years.

Canadians are but Americans aren't. Canada border is like their Nepal.

Keep up the 2+2 dialogues, keep signing agreements and wait forever for any meaningful tech. Modi will also find out that US MIC has its own mind. They can wait him out and then start again with the next guy.

Murphy's law when you become dependent on Americans!

Quite a load out!

How is it possible that HELINA has completed all trials but still start integration only next year?

What did it mean by Dhruvastra being air force version of HELINA?

What kind of moronic reporting is this?

JTull

So if they wanted, IA could have ordered and inducted LUH without the auto-pilot by specifying a operational ceiling, while the auto-pilot gets qualified! It could easily have been retrofitted.

JTull

2 airframes are dedicated for weapons integration and upgrade testing with TACDE.

JTull

Yes there's an air force station in Sirsa. I believe the accidental firing of Brahmos was from here.

Maybe Russians can get around the sanctions and utilise their Rupee holdings by setting up 100% export oriented manufacturing in India.

Go easy on posting same messages in 3-4 threads, mate!

Even it you have an OCU, the regular sqns will still need trainers for IR rating checks, AEB categorization checks and DASI inspections, and sometimes even remedial training of qualified pilots. Likewise OCUs also require single seaters. Can't this be done with simulators? How do USAF do it with F-...

I don't think this is the right thread for this kind of religion+economics+geopolitics discussion. Best to move it to another thread in Strategic Issues Forum.

Perhaps this post is better suited to another thread, I've seen many a point being made about delays and screwdriver ToTs of MRCA, missiles etc, under the garb of Atmanirbhar Bharat. For anything that services buy in large numbers, GoI's focus has been to make supply chains local. There's no room fo...

So Prachand was inducted before firing trials ? That’s a sea change from the endless trial cycle. Arrey Bhai, corps level pe training/testing hai. Earlier it was by test pilots observed by the services. If I remember correctly, Prachand has even fired live rockets during Air Force Day celebrations....

Any ounce of US interference can be negated by amplifying it in local media. That's the best way to counter those who like to stay in shadows.

I'm glad that GoI isn't just writing cheques under PLI schemes. They're undertaking a deep dive into the entire supply and value chains.

^^^9000 cr INR = 300 MUSD. Access to such loan schemes instead of getting ripped off pvt money lenders is surely a great thing, but I'm not sure how much difference it makes in a huge country like India. What does "active vendor" mean? The stats need to be better understood. Is this sarca...

Referring to more information that will come out, S Jaishsnkar could be planning the next step on the diplomatic escalation ladder.

My only concern is if Vikas engine is throttlable enough and Restart-able enough. It'd be good if ISRO publishes a technology roadmap for the reusable booster.

JTull

The roadmap seems to suggest that TV-D1 booster is itself on a development trajectory and will evolve into a reusable one.
