Hey, these are nothing but 25MM grenade launchers with integrated laser range finders (LRF). I thought they were some kind of new assault rifles which they are not. Basically air bursting grenades. I like the way the LRF automatically sets the range on the grenade fuse leaving the firer with...

That is your opinion, right? Thank you.

Sometimes a man has to do what a man has to do.

The only lasting lesson of that war is never to provoke a powerful enemy and hope he doesn't attack. All those quotations from Sun Tzu are meaningless. There was really no element of surprise in the Chinese actions. The Ladakh front was already open. It was we who had opened up the Tawang front...

Hey buddy, Strykers are light ICVs, that is it. ICVs are allotted to armoured divisions, mechanised divisions, motorised divisions and even infantry divisions. The US does no operate armoured infantry divisions. There are no motorised or mechanised or armoured divisions in Afghanistan. The US...

The analogy is not accurate. I just pointed one or two flaws with the reasoning given by ZH. There are many flaws because his statements are not based on sound military knowledge but rather on emotions and nationalism. His contention of the Americans preparing for a ground invasion of Pakistan...

^^^^ @ #44. Yes, he is all that and more but for heaven's sake don't call him a defence analyst. He doesn't know much about defence and to be an analyst, one has to be an expert. We also have a few ignoramuses masquerading as 'defence analysts' on our side. They make statements now and then...

Total crap from ZH the great 'Defence Analyst'. If that is analysis, then what is paranoia? Americans attacking from the west and India attacking from the east!!! What is that guy on? He keeps ranting about the Americans inducting nine armoured infantry divisions through these blocked convoys...

Good news indeed. This will make it easier for India to do business with Myanmar now. Curtailing Chinese influence here is an added benefit. It is now time to pull out North Korea from behind the iron curtain it has created around itself. When do we see a high profile Indian visit to NK?

congrats bro, keep up the good work.

hey bro, sorry to learn about your mishap. hope it was not the fog. the leg will heal soon enough, may have to walk with a stick and a plastered leg for a while. the rib is bad, every time you laugh or cough, it will remind you, so make sure you don't catch cold and get a bad cough. the lip...

Indeed, it looks like the Americans have a serious problem on their hands. As far as we Indians are concerned, we do not want a war between the US and Iran. We get 12% of our oil imports from you and a war will certainly disrupt the oil supply with disastrous results on our economy. Iran is a...

Extremely unfortunate and deplorable. What is the CM of Bihar doing? Isn't he a dalit himself? Nitish has a good reputation of being honest and competent. What is that clown Lalu Yadav doing? He calls himself the champion of the poor and the downtrodden, I last saw him on TV entertaining his...

The US warships in question are part of the US Fifth Fleet under the US CENTCOM. THe US Fifth Fleet has its HQ at Manama, Bahrain. To get to Manama, every US warship has to cross the Strait of Hormuz. How does an US carrier reporting to its HQ constitute reckless behaviour?

Far from it actually. The F-35B does not have its IOC planned even till as late as 2018. We may not see them in service till 2020 and there is a big possibility that the F-35B programme may be canceled.

Great news for all Indians. I wish they had skipped the idiotic and immature 'India beats China' part in the heading. Extremely poor standard of journalism and no review by the editor. WTF has China got to do with recovery of the Indian manufacturing sector after a period of reduced activity...

Wow. Nice avatar pic man. What a charming lady!!!

At a pinch the US can use the following assets available for moving to the Fifth Fleet Area of Responsibility 1. CVN-73 George Washington. Present location - Yokosuka, Japan, Time to be effective in Northern Arabian Sea - 5 days. 2. CVN-76 Ronald Reagan. Location as on 09/01/2012 - EastPac...

OK, if we send them to you, will you let them start converting poor Saudis by exploiting their poverty with money funded from abroad? If not then kindly read on the subject and make yourself aware before firing from the hip. Why is it that Abrahamic religions like Islam and Christianity always...

Surya namashkar is an ancient Hindu religious practice. The yogic movements associated with the surya namashkar are good for health as are all yogic exercises but that does not take away the clearly religious nature of Surya Namashkar. I do it every morning and have taught my kids to do it, but...
