The thing people should understand. If you have F35, you are a mutual defence partner with the other users. Simple.

Vietnam already has its Russian export version.

It's India's first , not the world's first. Large liquid telescopes go back as far as 1990s. What do the idiots who claim world's first think people at NASA are doing with a bigger budget? Over exaggeration is vain. Stick to facts.

HELINA has been tested but no deal signed yet, meaning integration is still pending. Any non linear missile, i.e greater than 10km range will need a MMR for targetting. Mi35 has a small one, so it can use SANT. Dhruv doesn't.

Not an attack helicopter. More like a scout helicopter. Never seen an attack helicopter without the ATGM.

Whenever a deal is signed, even that makes to the news. It may be for just 3 tugboats. But it makes the news. You don't need some super secret access to information. Every bit of Indian defence spending is out in the open for people to check up on. Everything single thing. Like what exact amount...

Let's wait for the additional GSAT7 to get up there. Right now with a single unit, it would be difficult for IAF to handle all the load. And Army is also sharing the capabilities. Atleast 6 communication satellites are planned. One replacement for Navy's older satellite, another satellite for...

Do a census of human population yaara. Will help setup better tax regime. Better ways of distributing subsidies to the needy. What is this.

It's a logical choice cost wise. India has already paid for ISE upgrades, so when Chosen, money won't be required for any India specific changes , but other platforms will need it. Additional basing infrastructure for 36 more Rafales already exists, so some cost is reduced there also. Initial...

By your logic then only tail numbers till 20 should exist. But tail numbers upto 28 are flying. Are they imaginary? SP35 is flying, meaning 31 out of 32 single seaters have been rolled out.

It's just an indirect way of saying we are making the regular force slimmer. Instead of cutting positions, we are giving those to tour of duty guys.

I am saying that media gets paid. They print things saying "it's going to happen". I am just asking you to list things which actually happened or got signed. Regarding the emergency powers , it's a power given to service chief to import something under 35 million USD quickly. This was...

28% of MoD budget goes towards pension payments.

Again, in 2020 when the 2nd squadron was being raised. They didn't had 27 aircrafts then. They started with just 2 then. A total of 9 Aircrafts have been delivered in 2 years.

Media says a lot. But it has got very little substance. That's why I asked if you can give me a list of deals actually signed and implemented due to that incident.

Rafale deal was signed in 2017. Please specify what EW equipment has been bought.

Please name the emergency procurement done after that. There are lobbies which includes sections of media who push out news about possible deals. But please go ahead and tell me about an emergency purchase which actually happened after 27th.

Not really. Heavy lift Helicopter were always a requirement. Only recently as and when funds are available, they are being bought. It's a straight contest between Mi26 and Chinook. While Mi26 can carry more, Chinook got more utility and better availability. Therefore it was chosen. For attack...

Our defence spending compared to our GDP is around the 2% mark. So not really an issue per say.
