    @Afif This should definitively answer the question of the Philippines' ability to acquire OTH targets for BrahMos to engage at longer ranges: they'll be relying on the US to provide those inputs. As I mentioned before, the BrahMos electronics (both onboard & ground-based) were made fully...

    India Navy Aircraft Carriers

    They're talking about a completely different timeframe here. This is a long-term carrier building program which is important to have if you don't want to keep re-learning how to build +40k ton vessels after every decade. SSNs are a strategic priority - there never was a question about not...

    Perhaps...I think LVM3 should be able accommodate something the mass of the MSL/Curiosity. Might take too long to get there though.

    This is interesting...I wonder if MLM is being considered in place of MOM-2 or sometime after it? MOM-2 is relatively uncomplicated in comparison to this: Sky-crane deployment for the rover :eek: Not public yet AFAIK.

    India Russian firms buy $4 billion worth of India-made arms, pay in Indian rupee

    It seems the total amount of Rupee-equivalent currency offloaded from vostro accounts by buying engineering goods was $4 bn. Nothing to indicate it was all 'arms'. Seems like a sensationalist title. Could also be industrial equipment that is often classified as dual-use i.e. explosives for...

    India India Deploys Three Warships To South China Sea

    I think at the core of is the Chinese belief that they hold the key of initiating any hostilities, that therefore they can choose the time & place as well as who to fight. Right now, they're not wrong about that, thanks to the fact that the SCS region remain incredibly important to the global...

    India India Deploys Three Warships To South China Sea

    Makes sense from a US perspective. The facilities in SCS/Singapore are simply too close to the action and liable to be attacked/degraded in the event of a kinetic war between US & China. Having repair & logistics facilities in India can be a nice insurance as attacking them would mean drawing...
