Thanks both for the explanations! Lovely tradition BTW! Great day each, Tay.

Please pardon the ignorant non-Desi but ... what's a ... ? The name is kind of cute so I'm hoping it's some kind of a kool party with funky grooves. Have a great day, Tay.

Probably smuggled one by one hidden in thousands of pigeons' behinds ... if you'll pardon my English. 8-) Tay.

WJ mate, gotta link for that please? Tay.

Actually, the Duster is sold with an automatic transmission since last year but it gets the topnotch Renault EDC which brings the price up by 1 300 € on any of the models. As for price, using the French main market, 18 to 19 000 € for the EDC equipped diesel versions ( 5,5 l per 100 km )...

Even though there's the money aspect to this, it must be stressed that Pakistan usually comes in second ( to Bangladesh for the same reason ) in number of troops and as the casualties shows doesn't pick its missions but goes and does. The cultural aspect including the Muslim identity and also...

Ah, my good MICA, glad to read you and first, support in your harsh time! There is a lot of truth in this article but it is what's lacking that allows understanding, in this case the economic situation of our present Fr government. Briefly, Président Macron has undertaken to both cut the...

It's still nice to see the appreciation of his NCOs showing clearly on their faces. And, you'll note that he can't straighten his arms for a salute or attention pose due to the burn wounds nor hold his uniform jacket for long. At ease, Lance Corporal. :tup: Good day Janbaz, Joe and all, Tay.

R.I.P. Thoughts for the officers' families and good hunting to the KPK forces. Tay.

Just to add some context, France has had Hercs H-type for a long time, mostly for use by the Special Forces. This is thus not a singular acquisition ... except that : The particular reason however is not given by the piece and and that is that the A400M is not able to refuel helicopters at...

Too bad that the OP begins with a huge mistake : Ridiculous and 100% erroneous! CERN was established from 1949 to 1954 and while it occupies the same site since, the present day LHC coming after the SynchroCyclotron & then the SuperProton Synchrotron, LEP with finally the LHC, the present day...

Thank you very much for that info, mate! :tup: Security fits with the presence of a blade. It's a clean design too. Have a great day, Tay.

Think of it as a way to get both some of the ANA to be able to do its job over the Durand line so that less "action" occurs here and establish a relation with select and trusted BIA for the future. It certainly won't fix the whole of the problem with Afghanistan ( which I fear no one even...

Well, Mike good mate, the AFRICOM by itself was a sign that the region held interest and the training effort by it is much bigger than is generally known. Africom even holds a yearly contest between the different nations they train. But you certainly also guessed that as the SyrIraq affairs...

Moon-light, you keep making assumptions with a biais for bits of very real knowledge that favour your views whilst conveniently brushing off those that don't ... even though I suspect that you understand them just as well. For example, in the above, you rightfully counter a point brought up by...

A controlled environment that was defined by the Raptor's handlers and users so the point is kinda moot. Besides the F-22 in such a perfect setting almost overran the Rafale ... but not quite and thus showed it wasn't invincible per say. Just note A- that the others didn't dogfight and B- that...

Tsahal, a top notch force regardless of if you like it or not, uses heavy Merks in Gaza when oppression is the choice. There's reason for that! When adapted to the task, MBTs can solve many problems and provide ground superiority. Good day Zarvan and all, Tay.

Our neighbour is quite right! Q. Is the Thunder worth a Rafale / MKI / F-16? A. No, say 1/4, 1/3 and 1/2 respectively ... for sake of argument. Fine! But if it is worth a fourth of a Rafale by price as well, it means PAF can field "fou' times' amany" right? 4 x more ? Which evens things out...
