In case F-35 is offered at a future date.. what is the deployment plan.. like S-400s will not be deployed in sectors where F-35s are deployed ? Or USAF personnel on airbase to ensure Ruskies dont get hold of some classified details? Like can we have F-35s only deployed against China, and S-400 defend cities , as well as against Pakistan?
Hypothetical question. The details of what u asked can be answered once the negotiations are completed and contract signed. Yes there always are terms n conditions. That's why contracts are signed in the first place.

why dosen't India also let USA lease some territory for missiles to point at China???
Good way to bring in MEGATONNAGE without testing.
Maybe in your and my dreams.
Practically no land is needed for nukes. American carriers and submarines are adequate to lob nukes.

India may have a decent number of nukes. Does it have political will to use them?

Why do you want AMRAAMs? Any particular reason?

And




Because the problem is you have 97% population living on handouts. That is - no tax. 97% is not the issue. But our 97% is the issue.
Sir
ASTRA 2 Take two or three years to mature. 120D will outperform astra 1 & Russian equlants. But i asked just, US becoming very close to india like logistic support + QUAD, if india ask 120d & sidewinder will US offer those or not? (For warlike situation)

And

Indias tax collection is much enough to spend 6 or 7 thousand crore for satellite + launch system for urgent needs.


Any indian analyst pls all tell ur views.

at times I think we need more powerful nukes as a detterent? But I have a feeling
MIRV test will come soon to make up for it?

Potential threat to both Russia and China.
There is absolutely no advantage of doing this to US....economically or militarily, this will be 1000 times worse in the context of a landlocked country for instance when compared to Afghanistan.

This link was posted earlier and thanks for that

What an amazing video with details of road connectivity, pass details, past flash points. Puts all the moronic media to shame on how to explain the importance of the recent IA's moves.

The fingers ( F1-F8) are not the key.. Good to have and should push to F8..
The key is Spangur Tso lake & the entrance to Chusul..Losing the fingers can affect Chusul later but losing Spangur Tso will affect it now.

I have a Google Earth KML project of this whole area with all spots marked. If there is interest I will share the link, so you can zoom, tilt, pan and marvel at the challenge IA has taken on.
After such a long and educative video, it seems you have not fully understood it.

The Northern bank is equally important as the Chinese can develop operations towards Lukung and Tangtse along the fingers. The difference is that it might not be a large scale mechanized operation but only an infantry operation.

Once in Lukung, you can develop operations towards;
* Gogra - Hot Spring...
* Shyok - Galwan
* Towards Leh
* Go the southern bank and come down to Chusul ...
* Threaten / capture Nubra valley axix...

Only rocks on Finger three are required to be blasted to connect the road. Northern bank and fingers are equally important.. There is no use defending Chusul if Northen bank is gone.. and Chinese reach Lunkung..

Now, who will tell that to ITBP..??

China is a big country US making a nuclear string of pearls around them.

That does not mean they will just do things that do not make sense or add any advantage....Mongolia can be overrun by China or Russia in a day in current times. US may deploy intelligence assets as its close to gobi and other sensitive areas of China.

that area is more or less useless it is the Chinese eastern seaboard that is the primary target. Destroy that
and not much left in china.

Actually it is very important as they can capture Chinese missile testing (telemetry, ballistic paths, satellite callibration and soon), monitor xinjiang....lot of test sites in gobi desert area. Their launch facilities are in Gansu.

Both China and Russia will dismantle Mongolia and divide it amongst themselves, if US tries to station ballistic missiles in Mongolia. And just like the russian conquest of Crimea there will be nothing that the US could do about it..infact Mongolia is absolutely landlocked and surrounded by Russia and China
