Kaveri for India is fine... but UAE are already demanding a new version from France.. Kaveri and M88-X both will be of same thrust range.. but UAE will not go with Kaveri even if it offers 95-100 KN as advertised
Simple question... is Block -2 going to host more internal fuel to avoid the external tanks?.. is it going to have internal weapons??... if true then it is fine to reduce the RCS.. if not... it is just waste because when you put your external stuff your RCS will shoot to nearly 5m2 depending on...
cool.. do it.. and try it .... if you are successful you win.. if you fail you loose.... any way it is worth trying.. and these F-16 wont have monitoring ... you can load 5 nuclear bombs and target jaisalmer ;) to start with...
Why convince?? ... MMRCA is a good decision India made.. lets better choose Rafale and just be how we exist so far.. we just need to grow in our economy ... we need to learn from China .. there is no free candies ... hard work pays.. US really made a huge back turn especially on N-deal.. a thing...
Pakistan should help greece by buying there F-16 for about 20 million dollar for each piece... they should inturn replace it with JF-17... win-win situation
IAF chief has alread expressed it .. the competition was open and transparent and it is not political... Your senators themself understood that India has settled for a fighter ... not for strategy... if you are not convinced you can ask your own LM and Boeing... Boeing has stopped campaigning...
True.. that is the headache of the vendor.. if they are offering.. they should plan it.. and the money is not less... if F-35 is offered it will be nearly $30 billion.. Secondly MMRCA is the only way F-35 had a chance to come into IAF circle.. but F-35 can really make the cut with offset and...
The real issue under neath ... no one knows... US going JV for trainer will be a myth... there are lot of issues on broader basis ... we can see MoD clearly very careful in dealing with US.. while US putting restrictions on several aspect.. day by day the issue will grow only... India has...
If America really want to be close.. it should have been F-35 in the first case... F-35 getting offered now at the end of contest is totally a set back for both US and India... Secondly even if F-35 is offered foregoing money.. how will they satisfy the offset?.. because 200 of them is nearly a...
Do you think DBC can understand this? never.... As per her argument MMRCA is not fair.. and we are stealing her jobs and opened the economy to US.. but reality is different.. MMRCA was a very fair argument in which IAF played the role not the government.. US assumed political will with...
Not sure what makes JF-17 more powerful in any angle... what ever JF-17 is going to get (AESA or avionics) was mere speculation and PAF has gone to Chinese gizmos.... where as LCA has come of long way by bombing with LGB's and integeration of Derby is on the way.. which will make Tejas more...
As per Prasun.... Initial Nirbhay will be used only for cruise missile target destruction because we need to have our own Turbo fan as MTCR restricts the use of foreign components in the missile.. Not sure whether we are successful in this..
As far as i know they cant.. most of them have minimum range... below which they cant.. if you have more information please post it...
@Lucky...
Jamming is there.. but consider some missile like R-77 where it homme into the source of jamming...
Actually the logic is this way... the NATO are flying to deny Air space and attack the targets which kills the civilian... It is not necessary all the time you fly you have to do bombing.. there is a high likely that in most of the mission you fly to do the above parameters and you return...
