This is getting extremely embarassing to educate posters on basics. First learn to write proper english - its extremely hard to read and interpret your posts. It does not matter how ERIE was flying. For example (just an example) - Erie flying adjacent to K2 would never be able to detect...

If you do have access to TP - then can you check why G is limited 8 and what is the STR ? What are the combat implications of limiting the g to 8

Nothing special about SPICE - other than the fact that its proven over - over again in multiple conflicts. You all understand the importance of proven weapon systems dont you ? Finally its not just a guidance kit like a JDAM or Paveway is. Its much beyond that. In summary "SPICE, like JDAM, is a...

Some posters have the urge to post crap without really understanding the subject matter - doesnt it? Your post and tone of the post precisely reflects that. If you dont understand - then i guess you would term it as no logic common sense ? Doesnt it ? Tell me did you read my post at all ? OR...

Positioning of refueling probe is an issue that exists only in the imagination of posters of this forum. A term comes to mind 'Criticizing for the sake of criticizing' - since some of the posters are desperate to find faults with Tejas this seems to be one of the stupid items that generally has...

Extremely well articulated !

With all due respect - any professional force's job is to study global operations and its aftermath. Iran's executive of pin prick attacks on saudi facilities , Syrian operations and other operations are all studied - its nothing spectular, its a job they are supposed to do. PAF being a...

Apologies for not responding - not able to dedicate time due to personal situation NE What were the leanings ? If independent media and defence enthusiasts like you are not aware of them - how do you expect to ask PAF/PAK armed forces tough questions ? Or you just lap it up whatever is dished...

Sorry - cant keep up replying posts due to personal issues; But here it goes. NO - its not a software issue ! Quoting the CAG report that you linked ! Read the bold part very very carefully So what does the above part say - its not a software issue. So your point about it being a software issue...

I did not notice this post at all ! Since it was not replied to me. You have misquoted the entire CAG report. The entire paragraph you sited above is listed under --> High failure rate of Radar Warning Receiver system Essentially Tarang RWR has been problematic project and has been abandoned...

NE , You and I will always have disagreement on this topic. I have always maintained and noted down the shortcomings while highlighting the positive ones. I am yet to see any learnings from PAF - anyways, 3 cheers till the balloon goes up and we actually find it out.

You are incorrect in your assertion. India surely expected Pakistan to retaliate. Pakistani army wanted operations at Pak Army inc or Fauji Foundation to run smoothly. So what you saw - was actually public perception excercise from PAK armed forces. Strategically - that was the only objective...

Huh - the entire discussion is conjecture. Since there has been no official briefing from PAF - its clear they dont want to open pandora's box. Other than bravado statements from AVM Paracha and sponsored articles from Warnes - its nothing. Let me start by pointing all the flaws in your...

If the target is within 8-10 KM's then the seeker would acquire it if its within its boresight. If its 25 K range then it was to be radar assisted. So no disagreements. I think you genuinely does not understand how this works ! Let me do plain speak in simple words. Abhi and his wingman SQ...

Either you are acting naive or you dont understand how BVR air combat happens. I think you are carrying over your wvr notion of combat to bvr regime as well. It comes out with choice of words that you used - 'dodging' , 'ran away', etc. Let me try again to paint the BVR combat picture between...

Looks i have to repeat myself. Abhi's seeker got a lock, he let loose and turned. He may or may not have got visual recognition - it does not matter. Based on his SA - he knew there were no friendlies. It was adversarial aircraft. Incorrect- you just cherry picked what supported your...

HRK - we are in the world of conjecture ! The scenario you have laid out can only be debated by people who had SA that day. But what the hell - lets indulge It maynot be a clear visual recognition. It can be as simple seeker getting a lock on. Remember ground controller was eyes for Abhi. As far...

That data does not exist in public domain. Atleast not that i have read.

Huh ? he employed R73 missiles; Its classified as CCM - so it would fall in WVR regime. Wheres the dispute in that ? All the IAF official briefings clearly states the fact. What abhi clearly has told that - he could not id the aricraft since Mig 21 lacks recognition capability that modern a/c's...

Another awesome video - totally HD footage. All aviation enthusiasts - enjoy the video; Keep the d#$k measuring contest aside
