    only 100?? We need at least a few thousand.... And why buy when the sudarshan lgb has completed trials???(unless we are buying in a different weight class - sudarshan is only 1000lb afaik)......

    LeT, JuD planning to attack Bhakra Dam

    good logic..... But it doesnt matter what logic says or what someone thinks - the only thing that matters is what you can prove..... India has phone records traced to pakistan, a pakistani confessing to his crimes and that he was sent from pakistan (all this is considered proof)....... So unless...

    Typhoon outdid Rafale in Libya, claims four-nation consortium

    unless their claims are founded on facts, we'll be seeing a response from the french pretty soon...... If the french remain silent on this one then we can assume that its true

    EADS Cassidian wants India to be 'full participant' in Eurofighter Typhoon

    how will rafale radar outclass that of eft?? Fewer t/r modules(which are all still imported from usa),lesser range, no swashplate ( only 120 degree coverage as compared to eft 200)..... Radar and engine are two areas where the rafale lacks

    Typhoon outdid Rafale in Libya, claims four-nation consortium

    in terms of bombing and damage done, i doubt if ef out did the rafale, but it did manage to have high availability, very high average hours per month despite their being fewer eft's, being further away than rafale m( from libya), and facing spares shortage

    “China ready to support Indian bid for UNSC”

    the issue is the trust deficit between china and india...... I find it hard to believe that if india delinks itself from japan that the chinese will suddenly delink from pakistan and stop providing them with weapons as the article seems to suggest.... We can try to go alone and if china lives...

    EADS Cassidian wants India to be 'full participant' in Eurofighter Typhoon

    if a mirage upgrade costs 4 billion (including everything)- 80 million per plane, then its pretty stupid to think that the rafale which offers far more will come at same price....... I think the realistic price of rafale is far higher than what the french let on

    EADS Cassidian wants India to be 'full participant' in Eurofighter Typhoon

    @ sancho- the ef radar is not just better in terms of range(which is one of the most important factors), but it is also swashplate in design- most aesa radars cannot see very well to the sides( that is to an angle of greater than 60), swashplate helps it see upto 200 out of 360 degrees

    EADS Cassidian wants India to be 'full participant' in Eurofighter Typhoon

    rafale is not cheaper than typhoon..... Recently news about the uae rafale deal came out, and price is the only issue there.... uae is offering 7 billion euros, while the french want 9 billion( uae is buying 62 rafale to replace their mirages)..... Meaning that uae is offering 160 million...
