The employment of Apache's are not like above in COIN and Counter - Terror. And Intelligence is the name of the game. All the examples you pointed is not relevent to this discussion, as this is not CAS, nor high flying jets, nor is this some Apache's flying blind without any intelligence support...

Now this laughable, firstly there is NO 30mm Shells, it is 30mm ammo rounds, (BULLETS) on its chain gun - M230 Chain Gun - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Now on your KILL RADIUS - 2-5m, which would mean mostly hostage situation, or close proximity to civilians, ( I hope you can imagine how...

So? Try getting the info on civilian causalities inadvertently caused by the Army Yes, Equipments like the apache's will make their lives better. Not really, we are not facing it in the intensity as they are, also we have far more boots on the ground with much less area. Again this could...

Suits me fine Kunal, what I say is done daily by the US Armed Forces! But hey, I ave 'least' idea. Your reasons are quite geriatric to say the least

Its impractical in 1980 and 1990's, not the same now. They dont count for anything, both of them above examples have nothing to do with Apache's. Kills more IA men, especially officers, destroys more homes through Carl Gustav's. We have to change tactics, along with increase in our...

^^You really need to learn how to spell.

I saw that after you posted, it was amazing interview. My contention this isnt the same air-strike, that we call air-strike today in India. This actually minimize collateral damage than what we do today with our tactics. It saves more lives and is more accurate. The only reason we are having...

Time to rethink that Kunal, new technologies new options, saves more IA men. I do Kunal, I also know, the only people we have used air power is the Manipuri's. If I didnt, I wouldnt have mentioned Carl Gustav, would I? If it means it willl minimize collateral damage, save lives of IA men...

India prefers USA's Apache to Russia's 'Night Hunter' - English pravda.ru

There is a lot of difference to what Mi-24 gunships did in the movie Rambo, to what Apache's and new optics work. Nobody in India is going to pummel villages, we are not Pakistan nor Soviet Union nor USA in Vietnam. This is a qualitative and game changing equipment for the Indian Army and...

He is talking about its cannons. Not some raining of Hellfire missiles. There are couple of videos on Youtube on it. They are extremely effective and efficient at long ranges, and does less damage than the Indian Army using the Carl Gustav. India will have to learn how to employ this beast...

You are right, there are cases for employment of Apache's against terrorist in India, there are cases of it being used in Afghanistan and Iraq in that role of Urban as well as against terrorist in that area. On positive id, we can most definitly use them against terrorist and insurgents in the...

Sorry bud, you got me wrong, I never said you supported this or that, I have read enough of your posts to know that. I know, it was a general comment. Not a brownie scoring point. Now you are really wrong here, and I am not anything except pro-india and pro-armed forces

Kunal, The Russians didnt even bring their Radar to India for testing, as it was, believe it or not, not ready. Apache was and is miles ahead of Mi-28. People can talk about being India being a stooge of USA, when the reality they have a better product. Thats it. So are we a Russian stooge...

I am aware of that Kunal, I had made extensive posts of it in MP.net during the time of Adm.Mehta. The pro's and con's of that acquisition. It was never in an offer, truth be told. India never asked for it, US never offered it. You can find Adm.Mehta's quotes on it. It all started on the visit...

Where did that come from?

Adding to that, People over here seldom notice but thankfully the professionals do is the up time. What is the use of you having the best platform, when its mission availability time is less than 50%? This has been one of the most famous issues with Russian hardware, the reliability as in case...
