China flexing muscles, govt clears Brahmos for Arunachal

Remember this incident?

In the second, on 1 October 1967, a group of Indian Gurkha Rifles soldiers (from the 7th Battalion of the 11th Regiment) noticed Chinese troops surrounding a sentry post near a boulder at the Chola outpost in Sikkim. After a heated argument over the control of the boulder, a Chinese soldier bayoneted a Gurkha rifleman, triggering the start of a close-quarters knife and fire-fight, which then escalted to a mortar and HMG duel.[19] The Chinese troops had to signal a ceasefire just after three hours of fighting, but later scaled Point 15450 to establish themselves there.[19] The Gurkhas outflanked them the next day to regain Point 15450 and the Chinese retreated across the LAC.[19] 21 Indian soldiers were killed in this action.[18] The Indian government awarded Vir Chakras to Rifleman Limbu (posthumous) and battalion commander Major K.B. Joshi for their gallant actions. The extent of Chinese casualties in this skirmish is also not known.

It is better to think before flexing muscles as you can get kicked in the A$$ by our mountain battalions. And now they gonna shoot Brahmos at you niggas(in a non-offensive way)
 
Good move..half inch needs to be scaled down to half centimeter..
 
how many missiles in one regiment??

One regiment of the 290-km range BrahMos-I variant, which consists of 67 missiles, five mobile autonomous launchers on 12×12 Tatra vehicles and two mobile command posts, among other equipment,...

With 3 regiments (67+67+67=201 missiles) already deployed in western front, 4th are being raised for North-Eastern Front.

Even-though these missiles will help annihilating enemy forward infrastructure and supply lines, The real game changer comes when Brahmos is fitted in Su-30 MKI next year.
 
thanks for the valuable insight, I'm aware though.
My point simply being we should offer them regardless, let VN decide thereafter
 
i guess they get inspired by the likes of HongWu, Aerospace engineer, Speeder2 etc

This is a forum they can say whatever they want, and it'll just come across as their opinion, whereas your cyber-warriors friends writes up a laughably propagandish story on BR (glad they tuned it down and took out the beheading story), cite it to Wikipedia, pretend its the truth and thump their chests about it here :rofl:

how many missiles in one regiment??
like 1500 troops in one regiment...

Each regiment has 61 missiles.

The Indian Army is trying to get the government to buy it two more regiments of BrahMos block II missiles. Each regiment would have 61 missiles, 12-24 mobile launchers and two mobile control centers.
