What's happening? Another front warming up?

Just routine North Korea mischief. They keep on doing these kinds of things.

Reached outskirts of Seoul apparently. That can't be good.
Seoul is actually pretty close to the border, outskirts of Seoul mean something like 20kms which is nothing in the aerial distance.

It's a prop plane. If they're intercepting attacks on their capital with those...something is wrong.
They are a cost-effective way of intercepting cheap drones. It is also possible the crash is completely unrelated to the drone incident, just bad reporting.

Not every time the drones will be a Recon drone, especially in the LAC.
Yes, I agree. Thats why I said its a good idea only if they expect little to no resistance.... If they expect trouble, bad, baaaad idea. Will just get good pilots killed.

In SoKo vs NoKo, I think soko doesnt expect much trouble, given that noko is barely functional.

things have changed, chini are russi biggest energy customer now. and so far data hasn't come out on how reliant russi MIC is on chini MIC to replenish their military stockpile because of ukraine conflict.


the usual caveat, not saying this is the scenario, rather one of the possible scenarios.
If the situation changes where Russia will now side with CCP over India, you can expect to say goodbye to any friendliness towards Russia and India would probably move over to the US camp significantly and Russia would lose a valuable ally. Not a situation that Russia wants to see. Besides China needs Russia more than it thinks it does.

Can't these guys actually tell us what is russian in brahmos
Also heard thier was a law that we can't completely 100 indigenous brahmos as it is a JV
And doing it @00 percent would violate some agreement
The OG contract stated the propulsion and seeker must always be imported from russia but brahmos with indigenous seeker has been tested multiple times and likely is in production and we have started indigenising propulsion components like fuel pumps etc but not the engine which is imported

it’s ok. They still have to get past the USN and JSDMF
Yeah Japan and USA will stop chinks from coming to Indian Ocean for us :facepalm:
Better we get our 3rd aircraft carrier battle group soon, INS Vikramaditya is more of a harbour queen than operational warship.

So is Admiral Kuznetsov, but what has Britshit ships got to do with us? What kind of argument is this?
We should not get our 3rd aircraft carrier as 1st one is harbour queen because it is justifiable as some other aircraft carrier thousands of miles away is also a harbour queen with Chink navy breeding like rabbits?
