    Air defence systems are a must. We know that. But how good are they? Israel boasts that their Iron dome is 85% efficient. Yet in reality this is lower. So much so that after the recent events, Israel refuses to give figures about the interception efficacy of their system...

    It has to be remembered that the Hisar Class ships are designed with the concept of Fitted But Not With . In other words, they are clean slates ready to receive additions. Hence their initial costs were in the region of 110-120 million dollars each when they were being conceived. (That may have...

    What has this got to do with what you were asking? I gave you physical prices of UK‘s water and gas per m3. That has enough evidence to answer your query. Waste water constitutes approximately 35% of the bill you have shared. If you take that out of the bill ; you end up with a similar ratio of...

    Bro, you will find that the only reason a RAM rotates around its axis is because, the two antennae in front of the seeker head gives a 2 dimensional view. By rotating the missile, the RF tracking system that uses a twin-antenna interferometer that can measure phase interference of the...

    1m3 of water weighs ~1000kg. 1m3 of natural gas weighs less than 8.3 kg. In UK 1m3 of gas is ~ 0.55gbp But 1m3 of water is ~1.80gbp So I guess that gives some perspective also pls do not exaggerate. Your example shows 5.9 times. Not 10. within the water bill you have shared there’s is waste...

    Anka-3 and KE are quite different aircrafts. Anka-3 is subsonic. Being a flying wing, it can not go supersonic. But due to its airframe design, it is theoretically a true Low Observable plane. It should have a very low RCS value, especially when married with TF6000 engine. It will have 2...

    Now let’s look at the shape of our SOM-J : This is a totally stealthy design missile. Under the belly of Anka-3 it shouldn’t increase the RCS of Anka-3 to detectable levels. It is in theory external stealthy storage boxes. It has 275km range which makes it a stand off munition. With a LOS...

    When we finished the first 240 plane f16 programme, we had over 300 fighter jets including F4s and F5s. Since f4 and f5 jets were to be retired soon we would have needed more f16s to keep the numbers of non stealth jets ( the work horses of the airforce) at a decent level. Of course, without...

    Yours is wishful thinking! This agreement is totally about the F404 engines and its variants. Remember these engines can develop from 10500lbf to 12000lbf dry thrust as shown in Korean, Swedish and Indian versions.
