ISI created fake social media account of model to lure HAL employee: ATS

The ATS said Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) created a fake social media account of a woman, who then lured him into sharing pictures of his notes and HAL’s manufacturing unit at Ozar.

"The 41-year-old assistant supervisor at Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL), arrested by the Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) last month on charges of espionage, was lured by a woman, posing as a UK-based model with an interest in aeronautics, into sharing pictures and vital information on Sukhoi jets"

What kind of idiot would fall for this shit? And why the fuck are these employees allowed to have social media accounts?

Only sore loser's would fall in this.

This should be the standard issue instead of shitty AK-203 sorry... AK-103 with Rails.

I'm afraid your 'answer' doesn't adress the issue at all!!

My point was that, isn't the QRSAM based on the Astra AAM?? So it has to be smaller in comparison to the Barak 8 yet the land-based launcher carries 8 such missiles per vehicle. So why does the former system has a lesser number of missiles per vehicle when it's significantly smaller than the latter??

The same goes for the Pinaka rockets as well, which are definitely heftier than the QRSAM rounds yet each of the launchers carries 12 of them!! So why couldn't they pack at least a dozen smaller missiles in a launch vehicle??

Remember NGARM is also based on Astra.

Let this sink in.

I wonder what are those 3 visible silver lines ( 1 behind ) on the interstage. I am not able to determine

Blind guess it could exhaust port for small retro motor , IMO will be required for safe staging given that the interstage literally functions as a DACS.

Take the above with a pinch of salt.

But this much I can assure you guys , K4 is one hell of missile in terms of capabilities. Most people look at range as the sole parameter. What I look at is survivability , accuracy , flexibility , redundancy etc as the most important parameters for any given class of missile. Have you guys ever heard of any long range ballistic missile whose interstage literally functions as a heavy duty DACS ( sort of, since I don't know the nomenclature for the same ) .

Are you sure they are ports for the roll pitch motors? I had some HD or rather good quality pics of Asat. I haven't noticed such ports . But here in this pic, there seems to be a small port within a square window.

Deep down most men think that there is a woman somewhere who would recognise the John Abraham within.. The ISI shemales only need to pull the right levers..

Extended range Brahmos and other variants of this venerable workhorse will be tested in the last week of November. Diwali season will extend through November as well.

What are they testing in still dont understand....everyday they are testing brahmos....it is tested several times...crazy..

for past two-three years, it is more about indigenisation of components.

Let this sink in.

It's a lot bigger and heavier missile than the QRSAM, let that sink in as well. In any case, mods do not want this debate to go on any further in this thread, so let's just agree to disagree and move on, for the time being.

 

[NAMICA]

Yes

On the interstage , which is from k4

It means k4 is a very unique missile.

Watch from 12:18-12:31



PM Modi explicitly says, " Bharat me taiyar do adhunik pandubiya bhi corona kal me hi Nausena ko prapt hui. "

Only Vagir , a Kalvari class sub was launched at Mazgaon during this covid 19 times for outfitting work and trials. Even I deliberately act obtuse and argue that it was a retrofitted indigenously overhauled Shishumar or Sindhugosh class, then it would still not explain the 'Bharat mei taiyar 'phrase.
Then WHAT IS THE MYSTERY MADE IN INDIA PANDUBIYA????



The answer lies on the east coast in Ship Building centre. So another of the .............. was floated out in between March 25 and now. ' Corona kal '

If I were to go by semi official authoritative sources , she would be the third in the class. 8 VLS with all the bells and whistles.An extended length sibling of .......
And according to grapevine, the third submarine was INS Arighat. The second still not revealed sub had been in Navy service for quite some time . So this new launch will be the fourth boat.

Don't know if its posted before. Under Idex Challenge Nyokas Technologies has come up with IPS with soldier vital monitoring and real time transmission to base. It will be ready for user trials by June/July 2021 with RR most likely (already completed two phases of consultation with them to know the field requirements). Its among 3 or 4 other companies that have got a Spark grant for this challenge.
Another interesting thing is that a retired AF officer is now developing swarm drones with Idex. Guy was turned around by DRDO,IAF,MOD because there was no mechanism to give monetary/research help to these people before Idex. Incidentally MoD babus came to know of him when US AFRL contacted them to buy this person's swarm tech which he developed with his own funds before running out of money and snubbed by almost everyone.

perhaps the solution for the second point you have given is create a dedicated “single point of contact” department within MoD/DRDO which screens these tech ideas full time. screen the product for potential scams, and if technically sound pass it forward. review the list once every quarter with reps from the forces. If ok, then take it forward.

Can u name the company in which this AF officer is working.

Well in other countries it is done by either technocrats or armed forces personals not by bureaucrats.

May be so...

Few years ago, I was trying to venture into a business venture which was way above my head, one of my experience is that there are a lot of Mavericks in India who talk fancy, sound legit and convincing but when you do a deep scrutiny, their words are pretty hollow. these people are essentially sophisticated “scam artists” who have no real intention to work on the project long term, they want to make a quick buck and leave you high and dry.

I’ll bet hundreds of such types approaching govt departments especially MoD/DRDO all the time, if there is too much scrutiny there will be a reason behind it. And Delhi a full of such Chandigarh dalals. Technocrats with scientific or military background may not have the skillset to screen these types, you need babus who worked in these kind of departments before.
