India to conduct airborne radar surveys of Himalayan glaciers


New Delhi: India plans to conduct airborne radar surveys to estimate the thickness of Himalayan glaciers, with a pilot study to be conducted in Lahaul-Spiti basin of Himachal Pradesh. Once the pilot project is done, similar studies will be conducted in Indus, Ganga and Brahmaputra sub-basins.

What happens to our future fighter projects if US imposes sactions for S400?
Our fighter project lacks only engine...We will get GE engines independent of US sanctions as it's company to company deal and DRDO- RollsRoyce JV is developing new engine for future Indian fighters with IP being with India so no problem. If somehow US blocks GE engines as a contingency measure safran M88 engines will be used...

It ll be foolish if they put sanction . It ll change geopolitics of the world . China russia ll be more than happy in such scenario . India ll have to see for alternatives if they show such short sightedness . All those fighter programs ll be delayed .

Look at the intimidation tactics of chini using fishing boats.
Posting it here because at some point in future, same tactics will be used in our backyard.
=======
These are fishing boats. Brahmos does not come into the picture.
CCP intimidation tactics by swarming their "millitia" fishing boats. Should be treated as an invasion. I can bet that these boats are fitted with "non-fishing-gear". Countries are reluctant to call out this bully. Ofc. Phillipines does not have any other means other than "buzz" these boats with their CG boats but even this was not done.

This is a pressuring tactic of China a usual work of China in South China sea.
China is not going to launch invasion but they want to pressurize Philippines goverment since this incident will gain news in Pillipinies public.

Ya'll Nibbiars M88 has less thrust. Better if we could succeed in the Kaveri. And about Rolls-Royce JV I still have doubts about it's.

India will succeed in kaveri , I believe
Yes eventually
But a JV could speed things up
Although we cannot be 100% sure they'll share the technology that took decades to master and lose a potential market

In the long run we have to stand up on our own legs 🙂

M88 is a family of engines weighing up to multiple thurst categories. For contingency and keeping our depleted squadrons if we're forced with uncle biden sanctions we will end up with M88. Also US is no fool to lose millions of worth contract for its defence MIC. They will sanction us exempting this order.
Kaveri is work in progress - turbo fan blade and metallurgy we're working hard on to get the core right.
JV - DRDO- RollysRoyce can be successful if we take it up seriously backing with funds.
We will have indigenous two engines for future aircrafts
