Any chance we get another one(tara giri has Q4 2025 as it's date) or two(dunagiri or mahendra giri(Q1 2026) this year cause it seems like the frigates are currently ahead of their projected completion.

Huh aren't these 2nd and 3rd?

If the whole thing is yet again given to HAL i would give up and the thing is only gonna come out by 2040 at the earliest by which time the whole damn world would have moved on the 6th Gen. The only saving grace is that its gonna be designed to be close to 6th gen with MUMT and a lot of other...

well the issue is that, India is trying to bring up its private defence industry while boeing, Northop, Raytheon etc are well established giants. Eh idk tbh, we'll see.

Hmm but would that not be unfair to all the private giants that worked on this project? After all they could use this as marketing to manufacture stuff for other large defence industries as well.

i disagree, i dont think this is gonna be a HAL only project, its probably going to be a mix with HAL supplying all the crucial highly secret parts while other large private aerospace giants like L&T, tata etc will supply all your wings, the canopy and its glass. fuselage etc. I mean they alr...

then they hade wayyy to much hubris and got punished for it. we're not the fucking US for gods sake and hell even USA does not put idiotic restrictions on themselves. The only reason why i can think of a reason they put such stupid restrictions on themselves is cause they didnt want to involve...

we also have decent circumstantial proof of the one that was destroyed in bholari by what is widely believed to be a brahmos strike. well the only relative proof we have right now for this AWACS shootdown is and the fact that a 40N6 missile debris was found near the this place. Pakistan...

Nah, these two are not related, plus the deal for the ToT has alr been signed, the only things being discussed right now is the commercial establishment of the facility to manufacture these things. The tariffs are not on the main exports of India(i.e pharma and electronics) so it shouldn't...

@Nilgiri any news about the project 18? The most I can find are from unreliable websites but it seems to have 144 VLS

I just did some reasearch and it looks like the LRAShM is basically a hypersonic glide vehicle attached to a large booster The ET-LDHCM(isn't that a lot of letter for a damn missile) seems to be an air breathing scramjet, it's a first strike missile designed to penetrate air defences for...

haha perfect timing, js came back to check on this post and you posted 3 mins ago. Didnt DRDO also discreetly test the LRAShM before the maiden public test with footage? Yea there has been a lot of drama regarding this missile lately. anyway whats the big deal about this particular missile...

The Russians are targeting the TCC offices recently, probably as propoganda since the TCC is probably among the most hated organizations in ukraine right now( a lot of dragging people into cars and shipping them off to the frontline). Are they any ukranians here? I really hope I can get their...

Ehhhhh I wouldn't really trust this article tbh, idrw is not a good site and has been known for publishing a lot of bullshit and speculation with some real reports like missile tests etc being mixed in. But this one seems legit But I assume they would use the pinaka m3 for the higher value...

I think the DRDO has said that they want to bring the price per unit down to about 25k usd per which is about 4x cheaper than the price of the guided pinaka(about 100k). Again this is just their projected price and the current price is still insane. It might benefit from large orders but I don't...

I love jupiter too! Js learned how to play some of it of it a few weeks ago for my grade exam. Really fun.

Hey man I mean if I had nothing else left other than my age I too would want to go out in a rush of adrenaline rather than whittling away at home

Well at the end of the day it is still a 5th gen and certainly looks pretty stealthy so I hope we have decent counter measures against it

Perhaps the greatest guitar solo of all time.
