I wonder do r&aw taps all the undersea fiber optic cables

btw, we can collect kilotons of data thru this method

There was a guy in Twitter who recently poked a dpsu regarding the 105 mm Artillery gun upgrade , if anyone of you know him inform him regarding the shoddy holes in ofb HSLD casing , maja a jayega

Not deep sea tapping but near about landing sites ( shallow depths )

Internet communications are encrypted end-to-end. Anything starting with https:// won't be visible to any middleman.

Internet communications are encrypted end-to-end. Anything starting with https:// won't be visible to any middleman.

There is a way, the Five Eyes and US, UK and some other countries do it together.

Imo, that is debatable

there are reports of uk spying over fiberoptic cables

We also monitor stuff like email and social media along with telephone conversations, for tapping in more secure networks like Personal messaging service of companies like Whatsapp, Microsoft Team etc you would need to get them onboard something USA did. But its next to impossible to do with the apps like Signal or the Telegram which are much safer compared to other options.

Even after becoming dpsu their QC is as shitty as before

Look at the finishing of the 2 holes , daru peke ched Kiya hoga

Same workers, so they have carried the same work culture.

like @mist_consecutive said , there is layered encryption for internet data which makes them unbreakable.

but amazing thing is they already tie up with email companies so these can be broken

Revealed: how US and UK spy agencies defeat internet privacy and security

• NSA and GCHQ unlock encryption used to protect emails, banking and medical records• $250m-a-year US program works covertly with tech companies to insert weaknesses into products• Security experts say programs ‘undermine the fabric of the internet’

www.theguardian.com

this is actually the fucked up part of the story .

this is actually the fucked up part of the story .

One Key was exposed as the Microsoft Developer named it NSA (which should not have happened), the Microsoft called it a bug and they fixed it by fixing changing the name of the key
PS- All major Tech Companies are binded to do this in the USA.

While it looks bad, it is functionally just fine. The circular band that is bent in wonky ways is disposable and is there to protect the HSLDB. The holes seem fine to me, looks like normal drilled and tapped hole. The lower part seems to be a little bent, but again it will get covered by tail unit and wont affect performance.

OFB is just manufacturing an ordinary bomb and not guided bomb kit. Its basically 1960s technology and they are trying to generate excitement by posting a picture of guidance kit along with dumb bomb. Its like someone selling Mobile back cover taking credit for iPhone.

 

[Love Charger]

I have a few questions.
I know that IAF uses russian ordinance of the fab series
Ofab 250 etc, I want to ask that if we manufacture them under license ?
My second question is , why hsld , is it a general purpose bomb ?
How its different from garuda and garuthama

Very welcome development.
The lack of almost fully indigenous anti ship missiles(whether subsonic or supersonic) was like an black hole in our weapons arsenal.
I am sure that it was not due to any serious weakness in technological capability.
We had access to anti ship missiles for a long time starting with the Soviet Styx.
We must have had the opportunity to take apart the various anti ship missiles in our inventory including the Western origin Sea Eagle missiles.

The existence of the supersonic Bhramos does not mean that there is no need for an cheaper indigenous subsonic anti ship cruise missile.

Very surprising that DRDO could design and fabricate IRBM's, ICBM's, more sophisticated SLBM's and the extremely difficult BVR air to air missile like the Astra, but could not succeed in developing even an simple short range subsonic anti ship missile. The small turbofan engine requirement could have been met by importing Russian Saturn NPO engines as was done for the Nirbhay LACM programme(initially). Thereby proving the technology. Later our own STFE could have replaced the imports.

Even if some niche technologies were required, was it impossible to at least develop an Soviet Styx anti ship missile equivalent as an first step. The Styx is an decades old design(but which successfully fucked up the Pakistanis in Karachi).

We have managed to develop an entire arsenal of guided missiles in the last decade including ATGM, SAM's etc. The list is too long to enumerate here.

So the only plausible reason is that India did not want to antagonise the United States. Maybe it would have been seen as an threat to the US Navy in the long run. Possibly curtailing the freedom of action of US aircraft carrier task forces in the Indian Ocean region.

Anyway since we have woken up, our anti ship cruise missile armoury should include ship launched, aircraft launched, shore launched and submarine launched missiles(short, medium and long ranged variants).

This addition to our capability will enable us to strike at Chinese interests. By exporting these fully indigenous missiles(no restrictions bind us) to countries in South East Asia starting with Vietnam, we will enable these states to pose an threat to the PLA Navy ships and even the Chinese Coast Guard. There is an market for such missiles. The Bhramos need not be the only export.

Exporting fully indigenous Land Attack Cruise Missiles (which can strike targets deep inside China) to these countries could be the next step to pay back China.

Looks like all the pieces are slowly falling into place. The Indian Military Industrial Complex is slowly evolving and maturing. We need to catch up with the Chinese ASAP.
