looks like our China border is getting hot.

I am sure our military will live up to the situation.

In the meantime, today here comes the bomb:

CAG report on defence preparedness tabled in Parliament

The CAG report reviewing India's defence preparedness has been tabled in Parliament.

And as usual the hard hitting, straight talking CAG does not disappoint. The report points to several deficiencies including "Inordinate delay in procurement and integration of a Radar Warning Receiver system" by the Ministry of Defence, and "Procurement of unsuitable Navigation Computers" by the navy.

hmmmmmmmmmmm Why would nuclear armed fighters take off for an interception?
Ask that over zealous idiot who wrote the story. They love adding all kinds of spices.

Like I said in the other thread, if India was flying Mirage over there, they would have said nuclear capable Mirage.

You know our journos don't you?

I think its a deliberately leaked info (going by its added massala), coinciding with CAG report on pending radar integration, some patriots on work. Mountain strike corps on agenda as well.

Wake up congress-I don't get your face blackened twice, wasn't Nehru's blunder enough ?

So when India is sending fighter jets, probably nuclar capable ones, close to the chinese border, is it wrong for China to react by scrambling jets to defend her air space? Sounds to me this is kind news that should stir hot discussions among chinese, not among indians.


Self-righteous mindset by some people, as always.

It is not that we are on nuclear hair trigger alert. Already China has been very aggressive with us and any false move and it will end up with useless war.

You are totally missing the point. We are poking fun at the reporter who wrote China sent nuclear armed fighters to intercept Indian fighters. BTW, instill wonder why Chija had to scramble fighters while Indian fighters were well withing it's territory.

WTH, even if we fly over Tibet you shouldn't mind :troll: :D

Keeping China's growing military prowess in mind, the Indian Air Force (IAF) will now be part of India's proposed mountain strike corps that will be based in Uttarakhand and the North-East.

This move came about after the Government turned down the Army's Rs 60,000-crore proposal seven months back on the grounds that it was too Army-specific and that the three Services should jointly put up the proposal.
The new proposal sent to the Defence Ministry by Chairman Chief of Staff Committee Air Chief Marshal NAK Browne 10 days back projects requirements for combat helicopters, radars, anti-aircraft and anti-missile guns and electronic surveillance equipment.

This is besides the Army's projection of recruiting nearly 40,000 to 60,000 jawans and officers trained in mountain warfare apart from acquisition of artillery guns, howitzers and long and short range infantry weapons including rifles.
Incidentally, the earlier proposal was drafted by the Army alone after the Government gave an approval in principle more than a year back. However, the Finance Ministry later sent back the proposal to the Defence Ministry and asked it to come up with a joint proposal by the three Services, sources said here on Wednesday.
