PARIKRAMA

no no, i dont write in newspaper... i am nly in PDF , ID F and AM F.. forum..

Article is too much like points you mentioned so i thought it is you. Maybe someone took it from PDF.

Never saw you on IDF , Maybe becoz my visits are few.

AMF = American military Forum?

possible,,tejas mrca fb page also picked most of the things from here.. so also many other sites and media.. infact picdelamirand said that in rafale sticky..

yes american but not active much there.. i am mostly here and now with mod work in IDF but there also mostly for vstol related discussions

Yeah my request is also pending there.. @PARIKRAMA
I too follow LSA and VSTOL for his info s ..
I am not too concerned about being a member, I am just contended with reading their discussion..

I was worried when VSTOL said what he said to iaf boss few weeks back.., glad LSA is getting CFD analysis soon.

@sathya - whats ur id there?

huh.. not madam by any means .. i am a man not woman :)
ya ppl read on walls surely

what ?? u r a man? damn it. i thing u r a woman. may i have u email- address plz ? if u hav no prob.

@PARIKRAMA dont lie to major d1... He is a nice guy, you can tell him that ur a girl..... He wont create any trouble......

Yes I was reading the LWF thread, but my brain says negative. Reason, it would be difficult to move to some alternative after reaching such stage, and govt. would need some solid reason to justify such move. Second IAF have already ordered 126 unit and another platform will create headache and IAF are aware of it better than us.

What I fail to understand is, why DM/GOI is not putting effort on the turbofan development, which is very crucial. China on the other hand is going to spend more than 100 Billion on the Aircraft development, and of which serious percentage goes for the engine development. The govt. should realize the importance of the powerplant, its civilian usage, and the real cause of not reaching self independence.

May be ask PSK, he may be able to give some more insights and also show the way forward

Surely it can come but the we have to first limit Rafales and most probably the MII as there will be one MII line in twin engine and one in single engine. But Jet engine will be a big challenge and also the tech sharing. See even if companies like Boeing say, The senate has to approve and that is quite a big challenge

Assuming all approvals come then yes make that the MII line and get Boeing to make LCA Ng in a proper manner. But i doubt if F18 can evolve further then this and the MMRCA technical evaluation points will go against them for sure. (Same for F16 as well or Gripen)
But in single engine category we know LCA is not yet there but

we just signed 36 flyaway with rafale so comparision and benefits will make it a difficult choice

otehr tech features. Bcz Rafale MLU is already a big upgrade, these are essentially today versions going into LCA NG and Rafale gets the better upgrades. Thsi way the whole MIC benefits in one single deal with France and Dassault - to both LCA and later AMCA also which is essentially based out of Rafale NG plan

We dont spend any other place and we get best bang for birds. But for that only we have to match French side Rfaale numbers to justify as well as attract them for all this tech transfer and to get them onboard for LCA NG. We can plan for AMCA much much later

But light wing can be prioritized without a much bigger delay of course with kaveri

Will do surely. and Thank you

Sorry for late reply. I tried i could not do the same.

will do that surely.. You can also start and i will add whatever i have as well

sorry did nt reply earlier.. morning only i have reported the same to mod team. I am hoping they take some action soon.

i agree and in a way i am cheering fr PAF to get Su35 to take out F16s of ours.. I normally dont go and say it.. but if we buy F16 and in front is a flanker of Su35 class, we have limited chance .. its a more of suicide mission

May be you both need to calm down , take a short break and come back once you folks have enough of "holidays".. really i think it will be a much bigger loss if you folks go away like this ..

Sorry to butt in here but @hellfire first joe and now you too. Why are you guys hell-bent on abating the rationality of the forum. You should not leave.
I was even thinking about changing my username to something else so as to give you more space on the forum.

@litefire Oh don't bother with name change. It is a non-issue. I needed to re-apprise myself. So am out of forum. The usual mud slinging is painful. You relax.

Parik bro, i received a negative rating for appreciating a post by maybe an american poster where he posted a graphical presentation on how the various terrorist organizations in Pakistan are interlinked. Someone awarded me as well as the american poster with a negative rating.

I deleted my post afterwards so that it does not offends anyone (though it wasn't offensive in nature). Can i now ask the mods to review the rating?
Ps - are you from financial background? I have my exams going on, thought i could ask you for help on some topics.

You can surely ask the mods like waz wajsal to have a look and they may review to see if it can be reversed or not.. i am from finance background but thats from my MBA days.. but surely other than my area most questions/topics will need brush up..
