Seems to me RKS Bhadauria handles Mig-21 better.

Fundamental error. HUD Cam doesn't get any glimpse of a locked-on bogey/ target engaged in BVR. Because BVR engagement occurs at a greater distance beyond the capability of HUD CAM's lens. Which is meant to record videos at a distance at around a KM at best. Do you even know that SD10 is...

ACM Dhanoa categorically said, "This is an ongoing operation......." Answered doubts about if India has deescalated or not 108 baar #PKAKB #PKAKB

Menton of 2nd captured pilot by DGISPR and Paki PM and a U-turn in next couple of hours busted Pakis like anything. I just leave it to that.

The glorious history of Mig 21 will be signing off in style after scoring an F-16 kill.

I believe Tejas MK-2 will achieve only IOC by 2025 considering it starts flying before the end of 2020 which is a very optimistic timeline. By my estimates, MK-2 will fly anytime around 2021-22 and achieve IOC by 2027(this is when induction will begin) and FOC by 2029.

If this deal is being signed with specific aim of developing ecosystem further along with speeding up development of MK-2 versions of both Tejas and NLCA then it's ok. But if it is not the case; just another many, a purchase amidst cry for immediate requirements then what you are saying will...

And the point is? Like to add and repeat. Tejas is close to Mirage 2000H in range vs payload while beats it in rest of aspects of fighter jet technologies. When MK-2 comes even range vs payload will switch sides to Tejas camp. Derogatory words won't change what Tejas pilots and ex Mirage 2000H...

Yeah it will in every respect just like Rafale is.

Russians have helped us with subsystems that nobody would. However to say that they have helped us with critical technologies can not more further from truth. Despite ToT on Al-31 we are looking for some partener for development of an engine for AMCA. Worst example despite claiming 100% ToT...

How so? For start J-20 has internal weapon bays Rafale don't. By 2030 Rafale will be 30 plus year old airframe and J-20 will be just 10. And by then J-20 will also have mature electronics. So no, in 2030 Rafale won't be able to beat J-20. This is the whole point.

Yet the most logical option that Navy shall pursue is NAVAL AMCA. It's a fifth generation fighter which can be tailor build for Naval air arm. Today navy along with ADA and HAL has developed enough expertise to take on development of N-AMCA on their own. Today N LCA is at some stage to say...

Saab links Gripen bid with Tejas programme, to counter F-16 production numbers By Ajai Shukla Linkoping, Sweden Business Standard, 21st Oct 16 The contest to supply the Indian Air Force (IAF) a single-engine, medium fighter is currently playing out as a two-horse race. US giant, Lockheed...

Lockheed Martin first to respond to invitation to build single-engine fighter in India Saab to signal acceptance by month-end; Boeing is still undecided By Ajai Shukla Business Standard, 19th Oct 16 On Monday, US defence giant Lockheed Martin became the first international vendor to respond...

This competition is limited to just F-16 IN and Gripen E. Both of jets were extensively evaluated during last M-MRCA competition. So little evaluation will be required this time. I think in just one year all formalities regarding technical formalities can be completed. .....In fact, DM Parikar...

The government has started dealing the terrorist state of Pakistan with the iron hand. In this case, a full-scale escalation which is a real possibility, defence forces need to be prepared with superior hardware in overwhelming numbers to win a short and swift war decisively by inflicting a...

Because those serious and (allegedly) crazy people are aware of developments in Indo-US relations. These people also know the significance of Indo-US nuclear deal. And why US strongly backed us at MTCR is something these crazy people also know? Does it mean we are buying Avenger? I must be...
