IMHO, the good news is the similarity between the missile canisters of the new single AAD launcher and the Prahaar launcher seen during republic day:
The similarity tells me that in the final deployed config., we may see single launchers with 6 interceptors providing good redundancy and...
I was laughing at the situation mate! All this hype and for what!?! :disagree:
I was really looking forward to this train man! I am a rail enthusiast and any development in trains is always a good news for me. But it saddens me to see how PR has degenerated into what it is today! There was a...
LOL "Hero ban gaya zero" .... Saw this video on youtube. Don't know how authentic the news is but if true .... :disagree:
PR should bring out a comprehensive railway development package and stop with this charade of improvement! PR needs massive investments! Private sector can never help...

I read in an article yesterday that one of their projects in India was to introduce GPS in public transport system! :disagree:
We all know UK's track record as far as aid goes and how the govt. there has had a shoddy record in the past wrt using aid for dubious purposes! Clearly the people there...
The politicians were worse! The day the decision was made public, they started harping about the aid in their parliament! :tdown:
Hell with the aid man! We give a billion to Africa every year! UPA should stop taking money from Brits......... This is outright humiliating! Who the hell do they...
Coming back to the INDIAN ECONOMY! Finally great news on the inflation front! RBI should latch onto the good numbers and start reducing the interest rates ASAP! Let us make sure we get atleast 8% growth this year!

You are contradicting your own point! If you say that only the first two subs are of the same design with limited VLS and the rest will be heavily modified (new reactor/ new hull, etc), that clearly indicates a stop gap to me :rolleyes:. Anyhow, I am not privy to SBC or L&T acitivities (though I...
Yes.. but they will not follow the cold war deployment schemes. That's why I said IN can follow other deployment strategies. They can be dispersed within the wider IOR and called in for close (< 500 km from target packages) only when absolutely needed (and that would be in the middle of a...
Bloomberg auto expo coverage. A take on the current market trends and the future expectations. We clearly have a long way to go but are on the right track!
You are kidding right!? There are countries still buying Kilos and 209 derivatives. Our own Kilos and 209's were/ are being modernized. At the same time it makes no sense to compare a SSBN with a SSK. Arihant/ Arindham and their sister ships will patrol deep in the Indian Ocean. There is no way...
Though I do not conform with your basic thesis, I actually do think that you may have a point (though I may be driving at it in tangent). Indian business cannot invest as long as climate is not conducive for the same. With the "talks" breaking down at every small issue and elements on both sides...
They are the T-MK-4's delivered about 10-15 years ago if I remember correctly. The snoopy nose structure is due to the presence of LRMTS system (laser range finder and targeting seeker).

Two current nuclear reactor projects of great significance for India:

India is seeing rapid expansion in its Port capacity. Here are some interesting photos/ videos of some of these ports in India.
1. JNPT (three operational terminals and the construction of the fourth one about to start)

2. Mundra port (private)

3. Vallarpadam, Kochi...
Maybe! I guess it is upto IN to decide ofcourse. As I said before, my sole intention of sharing this information was to throw some light on a new development which I feel fit's IN's needs in all respects. Let's leave it at that!
