Yes no BMD is battle proven. Is anybody implying the contrary?
You tell me. Doubting Indian BMD & judging its performance only during war, indirectly implies that -

1] Either all BMDs in world are unproven or
2] Only Indian BMD is liable to be underestimated.

Ok, so till then you are supposed to ridicule it.

Why should I ridicule it? This is not a political issue . I am as much interested in the success of BMD as you are.

I did not ridicule anything. If you did misunderstood my statement in post#8 I cannot do anything about it.

And please stop reading too much into my statements. I have already clarified my view.

What are those "real conditions"? i am curious to know
Real conditions is, finding the incoming missile's trajectory, speed and whether its a decoy or real in a matter of few seconds and in an unexpected time.

Not all BMDs are tested in simulated conditions. They are not washing their cloths with billions of dollar going under 'target missile development' specifically for missile shield !

Oh please stop being so innocent, you clearly stated that Indian BMD is not proven in "real conditions", what are those?

PW, then what exactly they have tested till now? Aren't they launched an missile, tracked it, and destroyed it. Or they did something else?

How about we go to #8 ?

I would be happy if the system works in a real situation.As for incoming Chinese missiles part, we will know the true effectiveness only when it happens.
What makes you sure that Chinese missile is battle proven ?

Won't you also know about chinese missile's 'true effectiveness' only when it is launched for India ?

We knew everything about the missile beforehand. Again i not saying its not tested, BMDs are the most unreliable one, very hard to master it that too in terminal interception.

What is so different about different missiles, that makes them totally strangers?

What is wrong with post #8?




Where did I say that? Why are you assuming things?



Ofcourse.
Did I praise or eulogise Chinese missile expertise?
Good to see you cleared yourself. Your bit leery post here & that on shoutbox sometime ago gave other impression.

Yes BMDs are tough to master but they are not most unreliable.

OK we can take care of the Ballistic Missiles and enemy fighters, but what about the terrain hugging cruise missiles? Can we handle them as well through our current ADS?

I implied that such a weapon system can only be proven beyond doubt only in the event of an actual war.And this implies to all BMDs in the world.
Can you be 100% sure who will win in an MKI vs French AF Rafale in real air war, only based on computer simulations and friendly exercises?

layered defense systems, Akash, Spyder, and if some one escapes those, the AA guns
