    Indian army use of Pellet guns causing severe eye injuries in to 100s of Kashmiris aljazeera

    Do you have a better means to put an end to the Kashmir dispute? For their part, atleast the Indian side took "care" of their Kashmirs. Indian Kashmir is on the up. The Pakistani side has not only failed to capture Kashmir but has lost the war on the ideological front. My idea. If Kashmir is...

    In exclusive deal, India to get ‘Most Advanced’ F-16 fighter jets by 2019-20

    Its always a political decision in the end. But i'll wait until more confirmation. Because the Indians want F414 lic production in India. Does this new F16 line offer a new F414 engine with it or F110 flavour? FYI F-16 is still better than Mig21s that are still flying around.

    HAL Tejas | Updates, News & Discussions-[Thread 2]

    Thats pretty harsh considering the high GQSR and the industry the LCA program built. Now the Tejas is far from a failure until lets say 2020 or beyond. I think HAL/DRDO have a winning concept in the LCA but a little too small. A problem only now being addressed in MK2 forced by F414...

    IAF to take final call on AMCA’s engine : DRDO Chief

    Both. The eventual goal is to have a variant of the Kaveri power the aircraft but AMCA will require a intermediate engine. Most likely F414 since HAL is buying lic production of the engine which will include the machines/tools required to manufacture finer crystal blades for the F414. Once...

    HAL Tejas | Updates, News & Discussions-[Thread 2]

    No the PLA don't see the J-10 as apt trainer for flight time hence the strong RnD and success in ground trainers and high end simulators to get the recommended flight time. The PLAAF are careful when it comes to booking J-10 flights because of engines. Peace time its an issue.

    HAL Tejas | Updates, News & Discussions-[Thread 2]

    Makes sense. Since the Tejas can do what a LIFT or AJT like T-50 can do and near the same cost. Not to mention Tejas can do more and being a LCA it lower cost and lowering cost. The list is missing Gripen as a twin seater Gripen can provide the same capability give or take handling which I...

    BrahMos test-flown from Su-30 MKI fighter jet; world will envy IAF, says BrahMos Aerospace MD

    I don't think America with its mighty military needs to invest in supersonic missiles when hyper sonic are on the horizon. The advantage of speed and brahmos is reduced time to target. the other is the cost. Its lower than other super sonic missiles as bang for a buck. Originally intended by...

    Akash Missile Successfully Test Fired

    Yea, Its good technology. The same technology can be used to create other missiles like anti-shipping, anti-radar etc.. the Moskit is nothing but this kind of missile with 3 tons to it. Kh-31 etc... Very adaptable. The Chinese AFAIK gave up on this tech but some thing of Kh-31 clone has surfaced.

    Iron Fist 2016 Air Force station, Jaisalmer---- pics and videos

    I doubt any service personal carried much if the target be it a cheap flare was missed by a million dollar usually dummy missile. This was horse and phony show. They would eyeing up what wasn't on the camera. The coordination of the men/women behind the show. Which itself is exceptional...

    Speculated that GRSE won Philippines Navy Deep water patrol vessel (frigate) program

    I doubt the Filipinos will get what the IN has on their P28's. Namely the advanced ASW cruise missiles rumoured to be stored with heavy torpedoes. The fact they have close relationship with USA will cause concern for Russia/India whom arm the P28s.

    Iron Fist 2016 Air Force station, Jaisalmer---- pics and videos

    Using a real target aircraft which India has would be expensive and waste of public funds. So is the entire exercise. Nothing really here aside for coordination of service men/women. But using a cheap extra bright flare is better than a pilotless target which can cost as much as a cruise...

    I have more Sikhs in my Cabinet than Modi, says Justin Trudeau

    Sikhs have more power per head than the other minorities and "majorities" in India. You should learn a little history because the Pakistani text books are not the best models for history education. That being said, Pakistanis shouldn't preach Indians on treatment of minorities.

    Real Life Bajrangi Bhaijaan

    Genocide? Well then they are doing a poor job at it since the Valley is still dominated by Muslims and has lost its Hindu/minority population. Only ones trying to commit a genocide are your govt. funded terrorists.

    Afghanistan ready to grant Pakistan access to Central Asia

    CPEC is carrot and not a good one either. It is just an investment zone etc with china lending it at horrible rates/conditions. Russia has access to warm water through the Black sea and Iran. China goes through central asia, is partly linking up with India through nepal. No one cares about...

    Pakistan's NSA : 10 terrorists have entered Gujarat

    thats the first i've heard of cooperation on terror. when did the RSS send sucide bombers and gunmen to Pakistan? Just Amerika AFAIK and he was the only one on the list. Your own Govt. acknowledges that LeT JuD etc, are sending gunmen to target civilians in India. Thats a terrorist outfit.

    50 years ago today, Indira Gandhi got the Indian Air Force to bomb its own people

    Difference is, this happened during the cold war, right after the China-India war. The insurgents got arms and training from the PLA. Now, they have peace treaty and have accepted the Indian constitution. Not much of bombing run fortunately for the population of Mizoram. I botched my...

    For Policing South China Sea, US Wants India As Buddy Cop

    Its more than that. Its diplomacy. They CCP/China are guilty of providing Pakistan with M-11 missiles and transfer of technology. Thanks to CCP/China, India has to live with a semi-rogue state that threatens India with nuclear retaliation and hides under nuclear umbrella while supporting...
