I've heard of nuclear plants going critical. But have never heard of a critical nuclear technology? I think you are referring to fourth generation nuclear reactors. And for the record, India leads the world on thorium energy research. Might not need uranium in the future.

Rafale is not to be used as an interceptor. Naked eye is never a good way to judge acceleration. Interceptors are normally lesser advanced and cheaper fighters in the arsenal of an airforce. Possible to deploy in large numbers and expendable.

The reason why it will take 6 weeks to determine the lowest bidder. The acquisitions manager read out in broad terms the financial terms offered by the two sides. As the executives took notes furiously, it dawned that the formulae for pricing the aircraft presented by each was so complicated...

From where I stand I see a time sometime in the next decade when in both countries the generation that lived through the partition will more or less die out and the ones who inherited their hatred will be sharing power with younger, open minded leaders. That would be our best shot at peace, but...

I suppose the definition of World is restricted to NATO and its allies/supporters.

Step in the right direction. If only they could be as pro-active in controlling inflation.

f-35 was never in the contest. Had it been in it, perhaps it could have had a look in. The costs of the MMRCA contendors includes the flyaway cost and upgrade packages as well as ToT and some weapon systems. F35 is costing $156 mn already just to develop at current costs. Throw in no ToT, and...

There was already a recognition exchange with India dropping the Tibet Issue in return of China dropping the Sikkim issue. Ideally a cordial Sino-Indian ties are required for the long run.

That makes sense. People fail to realize that companies who want to protect their intellectual property end up setting up manufacturing units in India but to keep costs competitive have to import components from China. Our deficit with China may go up, but exports of these finished goods will...

Overcoming the adversarial mindset on the other side of the "wall" is never easy. It not only takes time, it often involves a leap of faith. The Jackson-Vanik Amendment of 1974 lives on eternally despite the "non-existence" of the USSR and its restrictions on Jewish emigration; its repeal is...

Interesting to see this!!! Even if we debate the role it plays in Naval carriers, it has immense potential of operating out of front line aircraft bases where runways are badly damaged.

Admiral Gorshkov is known as the name of the aircraft carrier that India is acquiring from Russia. But the legendary Admiral on whom the ship is named, was responsible for transforming the Soviet Navy from a coastal defence force into the world’s second-largest Navy, and a formidable power to...

I believe this comes against the backdrop of the Syria situation. India along with Brazil and South Africa (IBSA) visited Syria outside of the UNSC purview and within the UNSC blocked the NATO move along with China and Russia against intervention in Syria. Given the latest anti-Iran rhetoric by...

Whats it with you and your Zionist agenda? The Iran-India ties go way beyond the time that India and US started their strategic co-operation.

Tehran, Nov 6 (IANS) Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has said that cooperation between India and Iran on regional issues can help peace and stability in the region, Mehr news agency reported Sunday. Ahmadinejad made the remarks during a meeting with visiting Lok Sabha Speaker Meira...
