Targeting from ground is easier as the ground system is fixed. But the system on a plane is moving. So, in addition to movement of missile, it also has to consider the movement, maneuver and turbulence of the plane on which it is fixed. This is the challenge When the missile is pointed towards...

There are 2 questions here: 1) Laser accuracy must be within 10cm to hit missile exactly. At distance of 10km, the angle of 10cm is 0.00006 degree. Do we have actuators which stick out of the airframe and thus have to withstand high air pressure, friction and fluctuation of plane due to...

The hole in fuselage will not be made like in Star wars laser shots. The laser has to be aimed and fired for several seconds. The problem here is that enemy planes/missiles will not be flying in a straight line. So, at speed of 3-4mach, changing the direction of laser to keep targeting the exact...

Firing laser is not a problem. We already have a laser guided bombs. The problem comes when you try to take out enemy missiles with it. Missiles are made to withstand high temperature from Mach 5 speed friction. The laser can at est harm IIR seeker based WVR missiles. But the time to lock will...

Yes, GaN based radar is better but is does not make it th generation. It will need some more advanced technology to make it 6th generation. For example, Su30 PESA radar has excellent range, even over some AESA radars. Still, it is not considered advanced. Similarly, some enhancement in range...

GaN radar will not make a plane 6th generation. It will still remain 5th generation with enhanced AESA. GaN functions like GaAs except for melting point. The range increases by 50-60% but operating method is same as GaAs. It will be an upgraded AESA but not enough for 6th generation All-aspect...

Russia is not offering TOT for Su57 unlike TOT for Su30 MKI. But Rafale is coming with TOT & indigenous mmanufacturing.

Which in turn requires miniaturised nuclear reactor running on air cooled mechanism!

Better has to be "quantified". Merely better is insufficient What do ou mean by betetr? How can you get better design when already the design is highly computer optimised? You see, 5th generation differs from 4th generation in terms of stealth and AESA radar, both of which were possible due to...

This is a section of DRDO site where it posts all news related to DRDO, sometimes even less trustworthy ones. In this case, it was a news and it said "about 75kn". If he had what I have in mind - replacement of M88, he might have said this with that intent. Without exact number, you can't simply...

This is 2017 article. The thrust was met in 2018 only after rectification of problems in afterburner. As I said, DRDO changed the specs after certification news came out. So, why give old news and fool?

The first 2 are older ones as I am giving 2018 news about France certifying Kaveri. But the 3rd one is interesting as it has dry thrust mentioned as 52kN. I will come to it later. The 4th is the correct evrsion. But he has not mentioned the correct number. He only said "about" 75kN not that it...

The DRDO updation is my best evidence. What evidence you have to say Kaveri specification shown in DRDO website is wrong or speculative?

Wah! What evidence? You jsut waste my time by being childish. There is no point discussing it with you as according to you your version of Kaveri being useless is a fact and simply can't care about how UAV will be flown by Kaveri if it was a failure? You don't know the reason for failure...

You gave 2013 article based on UPA government;s sabotage tactics? Wah! If giving DRDO website is not explicit, what is/? So, what? What is your point? Are you mentally unsound? There is something called capability. Since we can't do magic, we have to tolerate things. But we try to change them...

Su30 MKI has been made fully only since Fy15. Till then India used to import engine. Duh! In its time, MiG21 was much betetr. Now, it is just being continued and not given too much importance. Tejas MK1A is not yet developed. Many electronic capability is being developed. Not new but upgraded...

Bharat Rakshak is also a forum like this. I have seen many more ridiculous excel sheets. That is why I asked for source with proper details, not BR-forum. The 123 is not a big number when being made fully indigenous. the small number of Indian fighters is due to India lacking ability to make...

Secifications of Kaveri by DRDO (It was updated in 2018): https://www.drdo.gov.in/drdo/English/index.jsp?pg=kaveri-new.jsp https://idrw.org/kaveri-engine-soon-to-head-for-high-altitude-tests/

Yes, this is because the MK1A upgrades will be used in MWF and hence it will be useful in making MWF. It is not investment in design of MK1A but electronics, avionics and other technology which can be reused elsewhere, mainly in MWF & even AMCA. So, investment is not for MK1A See my reply above...

Breakthrough for Kaveri engine, Clears Audit for Aircraft Integration You need not see everything. This is because we need backups and can't completely rely on France. We can't help, if Malaysia requests. Does not mean we will export
