Its in sanskrit, roughly means defence made easy at a distance

kashya means decay,removal(and many other meanings)but in this context this means that "removal from distance is easier removal"


it should have been दूर: क्षय: सरल क्षय: |

दूर: + क्षय: becomes दुर्रक्षय: due to sandhi rules

क्षया is not grammatically correct according to me..but i am no Sanskrit scholar

I do not think it is possible...

according to sandhi rules only दूर: + क्षय: can become दुर्रक्षय:
if it was दूर: + रक्षय| then sandhi would be दुर्ररक्षय:

दूर*क्षया*सरल*क्षया

दूर - distance
क्षया - erosion, weakening, or destruction
सरल - simple or straightforward

दूर क्षया सरल क्षया - Destroying the enemy from a distance is the most straightforward way to destroy the enemy. (translation, not transliteration)

I just hope the 29's are sent in for AESA upgrades within 5 years. Then this carrier will be able to serve a 40 year service. Otherwise the Mig 29 is a sexy bird.

patience...you wouldn't want it too arrive quickly and stay in the dock right......let it take its time and hope we get a ship which does not require repeated maintenance.

2014 is probably the earliest year during which the ship is allowed to sail to India.

if God is willing.
