    IAF Sukhoi Fleet to be Equipped with Homemade Nirbhay Missiles

    why are we adding so many a2g weapons like brahmos or nirbhay to su 30mki which is basically an air superiority fighter..... doing strikes should be the job for mmrca or mirage 2000, right?? Or maybe they want to convert the mki to a truly multi role platform, knowing that the winner of the...

    India selects EF, Rafale for MMRCA shortlist

    Are you saying that the french or british dont have air superiority?? the whole point of getting air superiority is so that you can do a2g missions without interference from enemy fighters..... and you wont find a single libyan fighter in the skies....

    india's anti-tank capability

    advanced shoulder launched missiles like javelin can easily destroy a tank..... they attack from the top where armour is weakest ( No ERA tiles there)..... even the older missiles can immobilize a tank, and on a battle field a stationary tank is a dead tank

    India selects EF, Rafale for MMRCA shortlist

    yes, the eft has only dropped a few lgbs in libya but anything more would have been an overkill.......also what most people here are missing is the fact that the eft's being used are the tranche 2 ones while we are offered the tranch 3 which will have much better a2g capabilities- like...

    india's anti-tank capability

    the development will take some time - in the meantime we need to buy more and more atgm's(hopefuly around 15k javelin) as we have only about 44k total as compared to sanctioned number of 82k

    India to up defences in Andamans, Lakshadweep.

    instead of su 30 ( which will be needed along chinese and pak border along with rest of the frontline aircraft), we should place the lca over there.....if i am not wrong the lca will get the exocet missile and will thus be capable of anti ship operations

    IAF Air Cheif NAIK interview on NDTV tranformation 26/11/2011

    What's the point of getting both su 27 and j 11, they're both virtually the same....... Also I doubt whether mig 35 will go beyond the tech demonstrator stage, Russia doesnt want it, India doesnt want it, China doesnt want it, if you guys do then you'll have to pay for the development

    India selects EF, Rafale for MMRCA shortlist

    Overall- the rafale is a better option for today- but if the eurofighter fulfills all its promises for the future version (t3b), and it will if india joins the program and funds it then it will be the better option for the future

    India selects EF, Rafale for MMRCA shortlist

    ok seeing the two of them together - I'd have to go for the rafale cockpit as well..... eft's cockpit looked great when seen independently but comparing , it just doesnt match up to the rafale's
