At the moment and in the current configuration, as a vessel that can operate in blue and white water settings seamlessly it has much potential, as it is prospective plans to tailor make munitions for said ship are being thought up, like the JABM.

Because at a personal level I cannot reconcile my conscience and intellect with the doings of the vast hordes who have turned religion into a cult like fold of ignorance, of those who claim to be its best proponents and prophets, the church fathers who molest young kids, the mullahs who call for...

DRDO's "new" APAR is being touted by the "defence analysts". ISRO's MOTR had been described in the space thread, with @BlueDot_in_Space providing pictures and even a diagram detailing the liquid cooling apparatus for the L-band AESA radar. Welcome to Indian Space Research Organization-ISRO -...

Ah, so it is the war specifically that you are referring to. It could not have been settled between the two families, in fact the families did not matter, the dispute was the pretext so as to ensure the destruction, Krishna simply engineered the circumstances but even then he left the freedom...

All exists within the transcendent soul as it exists within us (the very meaning and root form of "Vishnu") but that does not translate to running lives, not at all, Krishna repeatedly told those around him that control is something that he neither desired nor was willing to exercise in the...

Of course, there is relative primitiveness which prevails everywhere, we mistreat someone based on his birth as signified by his last name somewhere else another society goes about inflicting horrendous atrocities on minorities because they cannot agree upon a common name for God. Relatively we...

TATA has some good projects, but they are equally enamored with "screw driver giri" as the DPSUs. ISRO on the other hand has cultivated a whole host of public and private enterprises as a captive supplier and feeder base, so it is essentially easier for them to go about with their work, besides...

I have no interest in orgies, @Oscar would kill me in my sleep after such a session, out of sheer jealousy and vindictiveness because I would outperform him! 8-) Yes, TATA has hooked up with Thales Nederlands to offer the SMART-L, or so they have stated on their website. I'd like to see our...

Of course the nature if not the specifics of the ills were the same as they always have been, what makes you think that our society is any less primitive even today in many ways?:p: After all these ills are the expression of ego and ignorance, both are found aplenty even today. You and I see it...

The latter most probably and a complete lack of vision. The IN is now running about after the Finmeccancia debacle since the fate of the RAN-40L is now in question, the MOTR might take half a decade to get up to speed in a military role but it would be completely worth it, instead as usual...

The JABM is actually envisaged to be more compact than the BrahMos, that is exactly why it requires a proper clean sheet design with many firsts whereas a "run of the mill" air breathing supersonic AShM would be quite easy for the Americans to cook up. The primary design challenges are the...

It rivals the SM-3 in size, and even then cannot be used for BMD, so having an interceptor filling in for the Aster-30/SM-2/Barak-8 but possessed of the size of an SM-3 would be pointless. Btw, another VERY interesting concept is the DW-8000, a classy design to say the least and with the right...

Oh no! It was plenty ossified. Krishna himself commented that it was. Draupadi's marriage to five husbands was considered an aberration, in fact that was exactly what was used in the dyut sabha to justify her disrobing, the news of the marriage and its specifics in fact caused quite an uproar...

@Hyperion Your thoughts?

BrahMos is WAY TOO BIG and WAY TO HEAVY to be used as air interceptor, even in simplest of terms you need a goodly number of said interceptors and you would need a very large ship indeed to carry 32/48 of those. I should add, the JABM will operate as an AShM against smaller ships and vessels...

Karna's first wife committed sati too, sati as a practice existed, but probably not as a social compulsion where many women were forced into it as custom. Krishna did indeed marry them, not exactly to "integrate" them into society, rather to look after their welfare and to countermand the harm...

You're not a child, you are acting like one deliberately to rile up people but you're not one, not yet anyway.

Seems we shall need our own forum much like we shall carve our own empire! 8-) Btw did you run across the Taiwanese Hsun Hai? They've crammed 16 AShMs onto a ship the size of our coast guard OPVs! :o: Oh and Muricans are going to give their go ahead for the JABM (Joint air breathing missile...

@Ravi Nair, report to my office, you scoundrel!

@Oscar @Hyperion @Armstrong @Chinese-Dragon I don't know about Israel, but you HAVE to LOVE the Jews, because of ARI GOLD!
