if they do this to foreign OEM, they will get laughed at face, but they are too afraid to make it appear they are not "worldclass" to goras so they would not do this but plan before hand, but this is DRDO, local DRDO, you, me, local Indians so who cares
fact is army brass wants to treat drdo ppl downward and has got used to it and cannot act with grace
see how IA is doing ass covering, by not admittign 2 test was success
i wonder if ppl has spoken to junior level (colonels and belbpw) IA officer and MOD official about how they feel local item is being treated (for example ARJUN)
Bulls&it my freindOT- It is unfortunate that DRDO trials fail during 'high profile' tests when Brass are present, be it Arjun and now Brahmos! Sheer luck! (or lack of it)
Ask ARMY about how many T-90 trials succeed in front of brass and what is reported
Last time I spoke about desi all America bhakt attacked me now I wonder if I tell reality how many Army bhakt will attack me so I left BR
Now I wonder!!! it is like Gandhiji said, angrez left india but angreziyat has not, same way a lot of ppl in services still look abroad for gora color and confirm everything is good. it is passed off as tradition but reality is otherwise.
