    Derogatory signatures

    Don't make too much noise over a few remarks please. Understand that their 'derogatory' remarks are just the literal manifestation of their inability to see us as their equals, and even more, our nation surpassing them. And yeah, it's not their fault: it's just the degenerate mindset, the...

    Dassault Rafale, tender | News & Discussions [Thread 2]

    There's been too much of hardening of positions on both sides recently, and that ever augurs well for any prospective deal. The fact that Manohar Parrikar should choose to go out and publicly suggest non-compliance to the RFP by Dassault is as clear cut a warning as anyone would expect...

    Pakistan Wants 'Battlefield' Nukes, against Indian Troops

    The world knows more about North Korea's nuclear programme than they know about India's strategic nuclear programme (or about the Strategic Forces). That's the level of secrecy the nuclear establishment has maintained about our nuke programme. And then there is a reason why Pakistan refuses to...

    BBC: India growth figures baffle economists

    Everybody does it from time to time, and it is something IMF and WB encourage a lot, especially for under-developed, developing countries, where a large part of the informal (cash & non cash) transactions are not taken into account while calculating the GDP. And beyond that, there are several...

    The Indian Air Force continues to underperform.

    One of my relatives, who has served, and led, combined army-police operations against the insurgency when it was at its peak in Assam , has a rather interesting take about the current levels of violence. (Interesting fact: He was in charge of the adjoining district of Sonitpur, where the carnage...

    HAL Tejas | Updates, News & Discussions-[Thread 2]

    Nah, it probably is. And for good reason too. It's quite common to over-engineer a prototype, to add a certain extra layer of safety if you will. As more and more test data is collected and analysed and the exact parameters of loading and shock the structure will have to undergo, the prototype...

    Pakistan envoy seeks increased US pressure on India

    There are certain new realities that Pakistan will have to come to terms with, sooner or later. I'd argue that the sooner the better for them, but that's beside the point. What Pakistan may perceive as 'arrogance' is just pure and unadulterated indifference on India's side. Pakistan must...

    Modi’s Dangerous Silence

    Whoever gave you that idea is so so so very wrong.......... The strictly vegetarian diet is something for North India (perhaps South India too, But I haven't visited the south yet), and among certain Brahmin. The rest of us are die hard fans of meat. And that includes me. I'm from the NE, and...

    Dassault Rafale, tender | News & Discussions [Thread 2]

    The government(s) have repeatedly asked the competitors to extend the validity of their bids, first in 2009, then in 2012. If the bids were to expire, I believe the rules do not allow the competitors to re-enter a new bid. So, the bid must stand.

    BREAKING : `Modi may use military option if terror attack traced to Pakistan’

    You sure have a lot of heartburn whenever anyone anywhere generalizes and insults Muslims. But for some incredible (and no doubt irrational) reason, that yardstick doesn't apply to you or your buddies going on tirades against other kaffir religions and their followers. If hindus are...

    Arjun Mk.II Tank Clears All Army Trials, Service Next Year

    [ Bullshit. For someone with so little depth of understanding, you certainly have the air of an expert. Firstly, The entire national road network is being upgraded to 70-T-R class, and I believe the process is almost completed in the western regions. So no, you wont be spending lakhs of...

    Indian Military Artillery Outlook

    I have my doubts with regards to the rocket artillery. As per many knowledgeable sources, the number of Smerch laaunchers are around 54-60; roughly the same number for Pinaka @ 54(?). And that's discounting the additional Pinaka batteries being planned/built for the newly raised corps.

    If you have a Chance ....

    While I agree with the gist of your post, what you've written is only partially true. You become as good as you will yourself to be (keeping financial problems aside). I've seen both sides of the spectrum, been a student of many types of teachers: from brilliant teachers/professors who could...

    Iranian Space program

    Impressive, though I wish there would be a bit more information about the satellite, especially given that this is an imaging satellite. But that aside, does Iran have declared military applications for its satellite? Or are they just for scientific exploration?

    Iranian Space program

    Congratulations to the Iranian Scientists who've no doubt toiled hard and long for this, and of course to all the Iranians everywhere. May the future bring in more success. By the way, What type of satellite is this?

    Leaked: RAW is planning attacks in Kashmir

    This is just a part of the full order, issued under the directive of the head of the Waffen-RSS, Amit Shah. I have the rest of the order statements. In brief, they are as follows: 1. RSS-DAS-Modi division is to move in force to secure the area with man-portable concentration camps and hold out...

    Hezbollah retaliates by targeting Israeli military convoy, at least 2 killed

    There is no point commenting on the morality of this incident. It clearly was a reaction to the Israeli airstrikes; meaning the onus of precipitating this new 'crisis' falls on Israel, regardless of whichever side is on the right side of truth & morality. But that aside, the moment the...

    Rangers refuse to accept sweets

    Ah, yes, The actors. The brilliant actors. Unfortunately, our 'non-state actors' hold no candle to the ones just west of Wagah border. There are far too few in the first place, with an appalling number of 'smash-hits' compared to the torrent of 'acting' talent on your side. Who can forget the...

    India can help nations like Burma and Sri Lanka in this region - Barack Obama

    Rather interesting that Obama should choose to name (specifically) these two countries. These are the two countries where the internal political allegiance is torn between the US (& India) on one side and China on the other. Further, these are also the two countries that have in the recent past...
