Oman gave up many sqKM of EEZ water to Pakistan as gift. They can always claim it back by appeal or demand Pakistan to allow India submarine pipelines.
south korea had an advantage of MTCR Membership where it could source most of tech from west.
India turned into dumping ground for russian fighter jet.

I cant comment on Indonesia but India is surely next to Israel,China, Japan, Korea
Indian projects are slow bcoz of public...
We discussed the problem of using height to calculate range.
Shaheen II/III diameter is around 1.4 meter but the weight is around 23.6 tons.
In comparison, Agni II weigh 16 tonn but diameter for Agni II is 1.3 meter
Agni II has length of 21 meter as compared to 17.38 meter for Shaheen II...
India will have its local GPS by July 2016. India has limited funds. It is doing what is best for its country.
India cant just waste 2 bill $ for bragging rights. It will soon have the humane safe launch vehicle in a year or so. It could have easily turned PSLV into humane safe SLV but there...
India cant afford such costly Air defense. India can focus on the local BMD which is 2 layered defense comprising of AAD-PAD/PDV. The acquisition of S-400 should be conditional to some kind of tech transfer otherwise, its big loss for India
Russia is not selling Pak-Fa to china. Russia realize the value of 5th gen technology.
The time China overpowers Russia in defense, Russia will lose its importance.
South korea and India could partner together and develop the 5th gen fighter jet. both countries are at par in terms of...
The Burraq armed with two laser guided missiles is an major breakthrough for both Chinese and Pakistan. The missiles seems to have derived their design from the American Hellfire AGM, The AR 1 is an small missile which uses laser guidance and is capable of hitting any mobile target within ten...
Dude, You are treating missile like a projectile :)
Angle of projection doesnt matter much in missiles. There is no air friction above karman line (100 Km height).
Your projection logic should be applied once all the engine are burnt.
Calculate projectile with T= 0 the time shaheen III 2nd...
Its not a projectile:) which has max velocity at T= 0 .
I did give an example of Agni II which have range of 2000 KM with maximal altitude of 600 KM.
Another test of Agni-II reached an altitude of 220 km with similar range of 2000 Km in Sep 30, 2011
Missiles dont behave like a typical...
Barq is AR-1 a laser guided missile procured from China with semi-active laser homing
Speed: 1.1 Mach
Weight: 45 kg (99 lb)
Warhead: 10 kg (22 lb)
Range: up to 10 km (6.2 mi)
Guidance: inertial + satellite guidance
Armor penetration: > 1,000 mm (39 in)
Dont see US selling any missile with...
Russia and China would never trust Pakistan.Both of these states hate muslims.
chinese alliance with Pak is only aimed to contain India. As India learns to engage with China, Pak would have to return into Muslim/Arab/Turkey & american camp.
India will be among few countries that will enjoy...
1. Even a low range 2nd Generation SAM can bring down sub sonic cruise missile.
India is working on BMD defense with AAD/PAD-PDV. It is under development.
2. Subsonic CM like Tomahawk can barely maneuverable at < 15 G.
Ra'ad ALCM and Babur GLCM are of south african and chinese in origin.
Denel...
@HRK
Missile NOTAM show the maximal attitude,range of the Shahen III missile spec ( 692 KM, 2750+KM).
For e.g.
1. Agni II have maximal supported altitude of 600 KM & 2000KM range for full payload
Source: November 9, 2014
The 20-metre-tall Agni-II zoomed to an altitude of 600 km and began its...
Indian tanks will have to run in desert, mud around country side in any escalation with Pak. An Indian road and old bridge can barely take load of 50 tons.
Germany have quality infrastructure. We need tank in range of 40-50 tons
It's all comparative. A-Darter is built by Denel dynamics by...
I have been reading many discussion on this forum. I am critical of HAL, OFB but I still believe that DRDO has been performing at par.
You were claiming the need for QSRAM with <15 KM range.
QSRAM like trishul, Astra land version will have maneuverability of >40 G while Akash can barely turn...
Well said. They dont see the background and pain DRDO went though. While Agni test were failing one after another in last decade, Pak used to boast of perfect shaheen missiles. K-missile program is running for 20 yr. India is 5 yrs behind inducting Nirbhay land, naval and air version of cruise...
India needs a 1400 HP engine, light weight Composite cheap super alloy for armors, turret and barrel.
Arjun will always be a failed project until we can bring down weight to 50 Tons and increase the indigenous components to 70+%
