All this discussion about the babudome is fine. But unless the services come up with specific force requirements that will meet the future strategic requirements. No one is going to move their behind to achieve those force goals. The attitude of the IAF is the most shocking for me. They think that ...

RoyG

I don't disagree with what you are saying RoyG. However collusive interests thrive in an environment when multiple agendas are put in front of decision makers. What is the priority for the decision makers? Once the answer is found to that question, everything else will fall in place. I want to resp...

RoyG

I agree with you Rakesh but differ on priorities. It’s not priorities which are dictating direction but babudom led collusive interests. When it comes to major platforms, atmanirbhar is a complete failure. Just look at the induction list: ALH 105 Field gun Naval surface warfare fleet SSBN Strategic ...

RoyG

Rakesh, Is there any official statement from IAF about the timeframe for prototype roll out? I have a suspicion about what is happening in the background. The civil service led foreign procurement lobby is stretching the prototype development cycle to cause induction delays and push through more for...

Totally nonsensical idea - India pays Pakistan to vacate pok-gb. One time offer of 50 billion usd. Could be used to ease it’s foreign debt servicing significantly but GHQ will take it and run. Still becomes a US-Arab-IMF colony and denuked completely. Sign agreement with China to allow goods to trav...

The British colonialism was a symptom of a larger problem which is Indian culture losing its luster beginning in pre Islamic times. Not true.

Bala,

Bharat exists only in name. India is now the reality, hate it or like it. The British colonialism was a symptom of a larger problem which is Indian culture losing its luster beginning in pre Islamic times.

Why blame them now in 2023?

As Chirac said, Africa’s problems are civilsational. Only he didn’t specify whose civilisation. Most of Africa is fcked.

The nature of the military bureaucracy is state capture and exploitation of talent and resources. What they don’t seem to get is that the talent runs out quickly which leads to economic and social collapse and fire sale of state assets including land.

There is something more perverse in what she is saying. Waqf is basically an extension of goi through legislation. If the GoI wants it could formally nationalize all the land under a governmental body. This is what I think the government intends to do at some point. Capture Hindu land through an Isl...

Nachiket, see what is happening now. Neither will the Army allow for the induction of the locally developed platform and the Govt will not budge on importing a phoren platform. Someone has to blink first. It should be the Army who has to blink, but they are not willing to. As a result, there is a c...

Trick is to make sure we have a developed product so we don’t fall too behind and that in a time of urgent need we can manufacture. But postpone manufacture indefinitely so long as there is money to be made from imports. IMO, window for this corrupt operation is closing for major platforms for all s...

Obesity rates in the western hemisphere are alarming. It is not uncommon to see human beings weighing 350-400 lbs. Perhaps the IMF can gently suggest lower levels of consumption that will leave more for the poor of the planet. It is not just economics it is cultural. The Japanese have a very high s...

The navy is pressing ahead with an indigenous ssk (super kalvari?) if the reports are true. With this, like on the fighter aircraft front, no more major foreign purchases. Stabilization of platform will be achieved with SSN and SSBN as well.

The biggest lesson of the war is the absolute value of small and cheap commercial drones. Such drones are the real game changers for both sides. The Ukrainians are said to be loosing about 10000 such drones each month. Drones fitted with day and night sights coupled with lazer rangefinder/ designat...

You can argue all variables will not be same but massive domestic drone production capacities are required. From chips, optics to final fabrication - all components need to be domestically produced and in massive amounts. During war chips will not be supplied to India in numbers it will need. That ...

We are looking at 177 Rafales total if you include the M class. This on top of 272 Su-30 brings our frontline heavy fighter bomber aircraft to 449. Rest will be LCA MKI&II, TEDBF, and AMCA. This should be our last foreign figher aircraft purchase. [/u] That will be the day we achieve success in...

AFSPA may be what they want. Better will be to do intelligence operation with special forces. Roy ji, I do not think this should be a "military response" first, though that will be needed eventually. Any help from the army should be used to supplant the inept/incapable police force which ...

Bala,

The problem isn’t William Jones or the Greek historians. It’s GoI which has not yet constituted a decolonization or truth and reconciliation body. Until then much of the knowledge will remain in forums, books, and videos outside state education and research publications.

Hopefully should be our last major fighter aircraft order. LCA, TEDBF, and AMCA moving forward. Actually a big development and even bigger sigh of relief

Possible design of SSN? Great find. Thank You. Very similar to the general design you posted. Interesting that it has a swedish a26 chinned type sail and has the cross form rudder.
