Major chunk of the budget is spent on deploying, maintaining and guarding the nuclear arsenal, rather than producing it. According to this source the fraction of total budget spent on N bomb for production is only 7%. http://www.ippnw-students.org/NWIP/pdfs/costs.pdf Another interesting...

That's not correct. As the nuclear fuel (U238) imported under this deal can only be used in Indian reactors that are placed under IAEA safe guards. Even the spent fuel cannot be processed by India to extract Plutonium.

Source? U235 is more commonly used than plutonium for nuclear warheads. What is the use of nuclear warheads which cannot be delivered by missiles?

I would say that multitude of techs were needed to be developed. Sanctions and economic crisis of early 90s definitely hampered the development of various techs related to LCA. So, cut some slack for DRDO. thanks.

No. ADA is the nodal agency for LCA. HAL is just the manufacture, not concerned with the development and testing directly.

This is incorrect as India did operate INS Vikrant, which had on delivery, steam catapult for assisting take off of sea hawk aircraft. Only after its restructuring to operate Sea harriers this catapult assisted launch system was removed and ski jump was installed. And IMHO INS Vishal and...

"Yesterday is history, tomorrow is mystery, but today is a gift. That's why it is called present." No body knows about future, live in present. Why speculate when you know nothing? If you do know please be kind enough to share with us. Thanks.

R u the futuristic aircraft from movie Stealth, which had artificial intelligence? It sure went crazy later on and started chest thumping.. You sure sound like it/him. No offence!!

I really doubt that India will be able to use naval variant of FGFA (if & when it is ready) with its future ACs (Vicky & Vikrant). Naval FGFA will definitely require a catapult launch with longer flight deck... Maybe with IAC-2 with steam catapult or MALS can host them. But that is subject to...

That's what I was thinking... see my prev post. I just edited it. Added photos...

That's not 8x8. It's a tracked chassis. Is TATA offering one on tracked chassis? Looks more like South Korean K9 on L&T tracked chassis.

AFAIK this particular unit was meant to be displayed at defexpo 2012 in India ... As evident by photos, even the transport is done by civilian vehicle and persons. If you have any info contrary to this, do share. Thanks.

First explain logic of using false flag!!:pakistan:

Hey buddy. I hate to burst your bubble. It seems like you missed the 1971 incidence. All the "ethnic" cleansing by pakistan army... Are you really a bangladeshi? then ask anyone who had witnessed / suffered... Must be many in your neighborhood. Thanks.

how many more before FOC

Hey Memon, I think we all know who started trolling and why... If you don't read post#4. That's a disturbing observation... It has happened in so many of threads in PDF. Always only one or two comments at the start. but enough to spark a " SPIRITED" discussion between members of different...

You most certainly sent one to this thread (Read czar786)! So is the situation so critical on forum? What is the threshold level of sending dummies on PDF?
