Rudra in IAF Squadron Service with MAWS & FoD Air Filters.
This variant would be great for the IN Anti Piracy / Littoral Warfare role dropping MARCOS in addition to armed patrol where we presently use MMG armed Chetaks.
When armed with HeliNAG or Spike, it can take out Azmat class missile boats beyond the range of their AA weapons

The simultaneous target tracking of 7 looks erroneous, otherwise a single Grad/BM-21 salvo of 40 rockets would overwhelm it.

Re: Republic Day 2018
Inviting 10 ASEAN leaders as chief guests on R- day is a master stroke. As I've been advocating for ages,India has to create its own leadership in the Indo-Asia-Pacific region by being a magnet for smaller powers.By bringing ASEAN closer together to India it also sends a message to certain S Asian states who are succumbing to Chinese debt blackmail, showing them that there are alternatives in joining a security grouping with India at its centre.
Re: Republic Day 2018
Women’s Motor Cycle team ‘Seema Bhawani’ of Border Security Force will be the main attraction of the spectacle, which was raised at Central School of Motor Transport (CSMT), BSF Academy Tekanpur on 20th October 2016. The BSF motorcycle team ‘Seema Bhawani’ is led by Sub Inspector Stanzin Noryang.
The splendid driving skills of ‘Seema Bhawani’ will display stunts like Salute to President, Fish Riding, Side Riding, Faulaad, Prachand Baalay Shaktiman, Four Harmony, Mobile PT, Bull Fighting, Peacock, Sapt Rishi, Brahma Yog Guldasta, Wind Mill Formation, Seema Prahari, Bharat Ke Mustaid Prahari, Sarhad Ke Nigheban and Flag March Pyramid.
This time it will be ladies special.
Both in foreground and in background( Min of def. , Min of I&B and min of ext aff. ).
That lady was really doing great things in Min. HRD till that event in Hyd made her to vacate.
This is a golden opportunity to showcase India in all the 10 countries..

Indigenously developed Weapon System Integrated Helicopter 'Rudra' will be displayed at 69th RepublicDay Parade.
Re: Republic Day 2018
No Pinaka ,ATAGS, Arjuns in the parade from the list or were only a few systems mentioned.
Re: Republic Day 2018
so many VIPs involved obviously security is an issue ...
may be due to time constraint...
parade also should include cultural themes.
if really want to see all the platforms then welcome to chennai in coming days

Re: Republic Day 2018
Happy Republic Day
Chalo , at least the infantry and marching parades are Indian
The Russkies and other foreign vendors must be laughing their balls off at all the free PR - that too to 10 foreign heads of state
Great show

Re: Republic Day 2018
No Agni. How does India show itself as a counterweight to ASEAN against China if they can’t even psyops with its own missiles.
The helicopters at parade start with petals did not come?

Re: Republic Day 2018
^You do not want to scare off the ASEAN nations either. We are not providing missile coverage for them. Neither we will be putting in ballistic missiles on their soil or selling it to them for quite a while in future. Why scare them then?
Re: Republic Day 2018
Doordarshan screwed up again. Showed face of some woman rather than Tejas.
Re: Republic Day 2018
^it is done purposely I think...
.
If we read between the lines,,
if we see behind the scenes,,
if we listen to them carefully,,,,
we realize it is just to showcase mantris and their families......that too public/faujis saluting mantris in all forms and shape... this is what is embedded in the DNA of Doordarshan to show..
difficult to change in short span of time. Or no one wants to change it.

Re: Republic Day 2018
I watched it online but video had DD logo on it, so presumably we watched same thing. Air quality was terrible, yes I heard the roar and focus on some random person. We need to fix our pollution first. Can't pussy-foot around it with cute terms like "mist" and "fog".shiv wrote:Doordarshan screwed up again. Showed face of some woman rather than Tejas.
Re: Republic Day 2018
My pet peeve with the Republic Day parade is the weather; Nai Dilli just doesn't pass the muster no more. The powers-that-be must either change the date or change the town/city where this is held. My preference is to move to another town/city with much better visibility at this time of the year.yensoy wrote:I watched it online but video had DD logo on it, so presumably we watched same thing.

Re: Republic Day 2018
Republic day flypast weather was always bad - even before pollution became bad. It has been cancelled many times in the past.yensoy wrote: I watched it online but video had DD logo on it, so presumably we watched same thing.

Re: Republic Day 2018
It is actually Fog. The flypast as has been mentioned above has been cancelled in the past because of it. In fact that was also a concern this time but luckily the air cleared.

Don't they know how to do some basic split screen if they really want to show people/dignitary as a side show? Something like this:

I doubt it. PM2.5 was 175+, it is clearly particulate matter pollution suspended in air by fog, i.e. smog.prasannasimha wrote:It is actually Fog.

President's moment of emotion was doubly touching to those of us who were already fighting back tears.
Re: Republic Day 2018
Folks any pictures of SPG personnel who are not in the vicinity of PM this year? We used to get pictures of them from recent Republic Parades like these:
I searched but was not able to find pics from this year's parade.

Re: Republic Day 2018
The guy on the right has been around for years. As an aside, did anyone notice how some of the parade participants were smiling this year? Usually everyone marching has a serious expression. Lots of regiment of artillery marching contingent members were smiling for the camera. Ditto for the Dogra regiment. The President's ADC was also smiling. A welcome change from previous years I think.Zynda wrote:Folks any pictures of SPG personnel who are not in the vicinity of PM this year?

Also, the state and government department tableaus are so juvenile. They should scrap them and only focus on the military aspects of the parade!
Re: Republic Day 2018
I liked the Maharashtra tableu. To hear "Jai Bhavani! Jai Shivaji" with waving of saffron flag on R'Day parade was an emotional moment. The ancient civilization of this land is still alive despite all odds!

In an otherwise awful Rday(the military part you could have blinked and missed it) - this made me feel good - after the disaster from previous R day medal presentation
but still they need to do something about making a grief stricken widow walk the long walk upstairs and back
