Re: HAL pushes HTT-40 as light attack platform considering that rupee is touching 65 per dollar ,and if total lifecycle cost is used for calculation Pliatus will become twice as costly, because the rupee is only going to go relentlessly downwards,So most of the justification for IAF to buy...

So one crash every year for the 20 years of service of HPT-32 is the reason for the grounding of the trainer ,"with irresolvable!!! fuel line problem!", by the same yardstick most of the IAf fleet should have been retired by now.

BS. You are misquoting again. the 53 percent figure was quoted for LRUs alone , not for the whole fighter. Indigenous components percentage will increase only when production gathers full steam. How can it increase in prototype testing phase? Who will invest money in brand new production...

Show me proof that single crystal blades are being GROWN in Koraput. Don't try to confuse others with what is raw material here. Because you can slip away immediately saying that raw material for these crystals being watered and grown in Koraput are coming from Russia. That is why you are...

Once platforms like Mig-21 and 23, and jag are scrapped in the countries of their origin , it is tough to support them may be one reason. And the Mig-21 has one of the fastest landing speeds and tough to handle for young pilots. Once again it is the lack of Advanced jet trainers and good basic...

At anytime more than 60 percent of the fighters that fly in IAF and 60 percent of the tanks that populate the IA fleet is way below the local tech levels in India as shown up by Arjun and Tejas. Time to accept this and replace the junks with modern indian products. Simply flying with junk...

That is mostly due to their recent love affair with Relaince which has zero experience in fighters and still managed to earn the trust of Dassault!!!!!!!!!!!!. But once Dassuault realized this love affair will lead to the abdication of their hard won ,"MMRCA crown for RAFALE", they changed...

Further, How can HLL which cannot rectify the faults of HTT-32 has had an exemplary safety record with ALH and LCA? And the bloody surprise is how come HLL which produce a Sukhoi-MKI from raw material stage , unable to remedy the fuel pump problems in HTT-32. The engine and fuel Pump of...

The true hall mark of any comprehensive national defence policy is to harness the avilable tech within the country into viable weapon platforms , and if that platform lacks some tech bridge it with foreign components like the navy does with warships, What IAf and IA does is exactly the...

@ kushalappa @Armand2REP @Decklander @Kunal Biswas @pmaitra, @sayareakd @Ray Sir http://tejas.gov.in/featured_articles/air_marshal_msd_wollen/page02.html The above passage lists out the ambitious PSQR...

The Navy plans the fleet according to the expertise available here. Of course they import core systems and fit it on them. But what prevented IAF from designing a fighter here along working closely with HAL and fit foreign engine subsystems on it as it is presently followed in Tejas LCA and...

because the budget of IN is very small and it won't allow it to build any significant fleet size if it imports too much. So from the outset they worked with indian research houses to extract the best bargain. A case in point is IN chipping in with 900 crores to develop LCA navy from it's own...

TRISHUL: Updated: RIP HTT-35, HTT-40, HJT-36 & LUH, Thanks To The Grifters' Long-Cons Anticipating the need HLL developed a mock up of it's own, but no interest was shown by IAf in this, Can you believe this? Instead what the IAF did was this, Not only that the following passage illustrates...

'Our trainer aircraft 40 times better than F-16s', News - City - Bangalore Mirror,Bangalore Mirror Did you ever read this? http://ajaishukla.blogspot.in/ AFAIK the PSQR for HTT-40 is given in MARCH 2009 only. SO according to you how much time it will take to develop and deliver the plane...

Where is IAF's concern for the life of trainee pilot who is prone to make some mistake during the most challenging landing, take off and low altitude phase of the flight?, But when it comes to crshing MIG-21s with bad engine design feature , unnamed sources always accuse HAL of not maintaining...

IAF-HAL tiff threatens to shatter indigenization quest - Times Of India Well the paid news lobby is starting it's artillery shelling to finish the HTT-40 effort by HAl. Just look at the article. 95 percent space reserved for IAF's views from ,"unnamed sources", which tells a white lie that...

You are side stepping the issue and giving a false info. ADA was created to implement Fly by wire and composite tech requirement raised for LCA by the scientific elite who thought with imminent supplies of F-16 to pak the version of the fighter that IAF asked for as a monkey level improvement...

You have to give proof of SATURN giving single crystal tech to India. you are making this claim that AL-41 is produced from raw material stage to full engine in India again and again. No one will transfer the tech to make SCB in India, But you are saying that these blades are made in India...

If service chief's won't toe the UPA line on procurement they will meet the fate of,"former army chief V.K. Singh". It was the message sent out by the UPA kichidi whose role is carpet bagging by sacking him for questioning the scam ridden TATRA truck deal. So there is no use blaming service...
