I am told that this thread is not for discussion, but I want to point out that those of us who get flexible synthetic rubber or other material cables and pipes imported from cold countries - and have to use them in our tropical temperatures quickly find that the material is prone to degradation and cracking while the other "hard" parts remain serviceable. The hoses/cables are often not available separately from the equipment. You have to buy the entire set new if the cable or duct goes. That is the nature of the business. So a simple method of protection would be to wind some suitable tape round the vulnerable part rather than throwing away the old and importing a new part. A 2 meter cable of an imported Rs 2.5 lakh German made laparoscopy camera I bought (in 1993) required such protection using insulation tape. It still works. It would have been dead in 5 years if I had not done that.

Northrop integrates and markets it for American planes. It is originally from Rafael and all Litenings in IAF were procured from them.

shiv..ur explanation is quite correct. But in this case I feel its more like the joint has sprung a leak ..or is a bit loose... the flexible hose gets into a more hard plastic part..the duct tape is securing the joint.

You don't actually know and you are speculating. Let us put that down in the interest of honesty and full disclosure.

Navika Sagar Parikrama INSV Tarini enters port Stanley Falkland Islands
Posted On: 22 JAN 2018 11:28AM by PIB Delhi
INSV Tarini entered Port Stanley (Falkland islands) today during it’s maiden voyage to circumnavigate the globe. This is the first-ever Indian circumnavigation of the globe by an all-women crew. The vessel is skippered by Lieutenant Commander Vartika Joshi, and the crew comprises Lieutenant Commanders Pratibha Jamwal, P Swathi, and Lieutenants S Vijaya Devi, B Aishwarya and Payal Gupta.



Smt Nirmala Sitharaman, Hon’ble Raksha Mantri had flagged-off INSV Tarini from Goa on 10 September 17. The vessel has covered approximately 15000 Nautical miles from Goa, crossing the Equator on 25 September 17, Cape Leeuwin on 09 November 17 and Cape Horn on 18 January 18.



The vessel and the crew experienced rough weather and stormy winds during the passage across the Pacific ocean that spanned 41 days. This coupled with the extremely cold climatic conditions prevailing in the region, proved to be a daunting task to overcome for the Indian Navy crew. Winds in excess of 60 knots and waves upto 7 meters were experienced on this leg of the passage.



The indigenously-built INSV Tarini is a 56-foot sailing vessel, which was inducted in the Indian Navy earlier this year, and showcases the ‘Make in India’ initiative on the International forum.



The expedition titled ‘Navika Sagar Parikrama’, is in consonance with the National policy to empower women to attain their full potential. It also aims to showcase ‘Nari Shakti’ on the world platform and help revolutionise societal attitudes and mindset towards women in India by raising visibility of their participation in challenging environs.



The vessel is scheduled to return to Goa in April 2018, on completion of the voyage. The expedition is being covered in five legs, with stop-overs at four ports: Fremantle (Australia), Lyttleton (New Zealand), Port Stanley (Falklands), and Cape Town (South Africa). Presently, the vessel has covered three of the five legs of the voyage, with the first port halt at Fremantle (Australia) in October and the second at Lyttelton (New Zealand) in November last year.



The crew has also been collating and updating meteorological, ocean and wave data on a regular basis for accurate weather forecast by India Meteorological Department (IMD), as also monitoring marine pollution on the high seas. They would interact extensively with the local populace, especially children, during the port halt to promote Ocean sailing and the spirit of adventure.



The vessel is likely to depart Port Stanley on 4 Feb 18.

Is that the RM in the middle ? Did she choose a sari to compliment with/coordinate with the rest of the staff ? Very nice if so. Shows care and humility. Nice picture. I like that all are wearing same sari. Important event for them.
