Re: Why We Need Pokhran-3
4. The only way to deter Pak from the Hamas strategy is to own MegaTon weapons, and confirm to Pak that we will kill every last Pakistani if they hit us with even a single KT weapon. With MT weapons, this is doable with the limited number of tubs and missiles we have. Only if they are completely de...

Re: Why We Need Pokhran-3
You've just said it - we're BUYING - they're not giving weapons for free - they NEED OUR MONEY. India's latest defense trade import with the US is around 20 billion USD/year, and France's is 10 billion USD/year. About 31 billion/year USD in non-defense imports come from the US, and less than 10 bil...

Re: Why We Need Pokhran-3
Gentlemen, If India needs to be a pole then it should possess every weapon that can keep the enemy at bay. But if you want to build an MT weapon, you cannot simply do one test. You need to do several tests several times over a long period of time to observe, improve, and optimize. Remember the Chin...
