RBE-2 AESA V/S CAPTOR-E? Does the RBE-2 AESA have only 1001 T/R Modules due to the small size of the cone of the Rafale?Is this true?Also how would the RBE-2 AESA and Captor-E compare?

Yeah, even the NSG uses hip holsters for their Glock 17's and 19's. :/ Why aren't they wearing vests with ceramic inserts?That looks only like a soft armour vest.MP5A5's would've been better I can only imagine the MP9 being used VIP close protection personnel but that's just my opinion.

I read somewhere that LCA has 1/3rd the frontal RCS as the Mirage 2000.

The wind tunnel model of the LCA before compound delta-wing was perfected for it had cropped canard delta wing like the Gripen. Photo of wind tunnel model of LCA along with the HF-73 LCA and Mirage 2000 in comparison.

Funny, I didn't know the Harriers came under the IAF.I learnt something new today thanks to rupee news.

CISF, CRPF, BSF Delhi Police and many other Polic forces use the MP5 here.It's not just limited to the Special Forces and NSG.

Any chances of Rafale?Or only Super Hornet due to political reason as well?

The sterlings are produced here so we have a steady supply of them.If they are replacing MP5's with these Berettas in my opinion they are making a mistake.When most of our armed forces and paramilitary forces are armed with Carbine 1A1's and MP5's with some select units in BSF and other...

Does the Rafale have any air to surface missile that is comparable in performance with the Kh-29 or the AGM-65 Maverick?If not is a air to surface missile planned for being integrated on the Rafale except the SCALP.Is the AS-30L compatible with the Rafale?

SG 551 is on a league of it's own.SG 551 is based on AK milled receiver.This new rifle is based on the FAL.As of now I can only speculate from the photos it's based on the FAL.Also the SG551 is of more higher quality and generally more ergonomic.

Looks like a FAL Para.Sights and folding stock look inspired from it. This is the Brazilian MD-97 5.56mm NATO variant based on FAL.

Looks like an INSAS in 7.62x39mm.They've used the same iron sights and upper receiver of the INSAS.Nice none the less.

So in the future we will see 3 Projects 15A's or Kolkata Class and 4 Project 15B's? When will the Brahmos be integrated into the Rajput and Delhi Class?If they have been already integrated how many and which ships use them? Are there any plans of integrating the Nirbhay into any of our...

What use are the Strykers when other options like GTK Boxer, Patria AMV, BAE SEP and BTR-90A can be bought. I wonder why IA never goes for dedicated wheeled or tracked APC's in large numbers.They only want IFV's like BMP-2.Doesn't anyone else think that we should have both Wheeled or Tracked...

T-50 is basically an advanced trainer like M-346, Yak-130 and BAE Hawk. While FA-50 is a light multirole fighter like Tejas and JF-17.

That's for T-50 not FA-50.T-50 is the most basic variant of these family of aircraft.FA-50 is the light multirole all weather fighter aircraft designed in the lines of JF-17 and LCA. https://www.koreaaero.com/english/business/t50_04.asp

Not know yet.The empty weight and MTOW of T-50 on which it's based on is similar to the Tejas Mk.I. The FA-50 will have first flight by late 2011 or early 2012.By 2013 RKAF needs 60 of these to replace their old F-5E Tiger's and F-4E Phantom's.

Il-76MD-90A which the Russians were bidding in the competition is only advanced aircraft in that payload category.I do agree with you on higher numbers of transport aircraft and comparatively smaller payload.I really hope more than 45 MTA's are acquired in the near future and if possible even...

How will the Tejas Mk.II Compare with the Korean F-50? Both are of more or less same weight and are generally designed to fullfill the same role.Although Tejas Mk.II has a more powerful engine.We might see a different more powerful power plant in F-50. F-50

So in the future we will see 3 Projects 15A's or Kolkata Class and 4 Project 15B's? When will the Brahmos be integrated into the Rajput and Delhi Class?Are there any plans of integrating the Nirbhay into any of our destroyers? Coming to frigates the Navy is going for 5 Project 17 Shivalik...
