    India Missiles and Guided Munitions

    That's just it. A rumor. There will be no new ICBM programme, except continuing in Agni Series. Next is 6000km MIRV version A6 and K5 SLBM. From hereforth range wise, our BM programme will be very slow.

    UK to retire Tranche 1 Typhoons with more than half of airframe hours remaining

    I think potential buy wishers are quite getting ahead of themselves. Even US has aircrafts which have been 'retired' before their service life. But they are not sold. Kept in reserve for sometime like 4-5 years before completely scrapped off. UK with its historic low defence budget, I don't...

    UK to retire Tranche 1 Typhoons with more than half of airframe hours remaining

    I think they will kept in reserve. UK DoD still hasn't spoke about selling them.

    Good we are getting some support ships. Hope we can get a move on Mine counter vessels, submarine rescue vessel (2 ordered I guess), and mini subs for special force ops.

    India HAL Tejas Program

    Though great work by him, but actually getting sick of these works on twitter. It's like jinxing the project. Let the baby come out first and then do all kinda graphics.

    How can Artillery Numbers today relate to Universal Education yesterday?

    Will just respond to my part. While India not having enough blue collar job wrt to education quality might be true to an extent, it's not the dominant factor. Just 2-3 years back, in the middle of the trade war (US and China) I saw my company transfer manufacturing from China to Vietnam. The...

    TR HÜRJET-Advanced Jet Trainer/ Light attack aircraft

    Exactly. It's overtly aggressive. They can reduce induction timeline if they want to be strictly a trainer. In that case, weapon integrations or drop tanks can take a back seat. I have my reservation on the timeline as well. But willing to wait. We will know by end of this year if a prototype...

    The other member has not abused any member here. If some feel they are adding "no value comment" then no one needs to respond. Ignore and move on.

    TR HÜRJET-Advanced Jet Trainer/ Light attack aircraft

    You need to cool down. It's fine. It's Turkeys product. It's no problem being optimistic. If you are feeling they are unrealistic, then wait for a few months. We will see. No need to argue too much unnecessarily

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    Many members are taking genuine questions like criticisms and as if a difference in fighter development can be seen from projects in Europe, US or even India. Testing an manned fighter is an exhaustive ball game. Let's say you have 1000 parameters to check. You have successfully tested 999. And...

    News No Cold War? Chip War in Search of World Dominance Between US-China & Why The World Need Taiwan

    I am not sure on that count. Automobile processors have to be qualified. Basic ones simply can't be used if I am right. Cos it needs to pass some amount of thermal and vibration tests. I had a chance to work once on a comm device to be mounted on a UAV, and the main motherboard PCB actually...

    News No Cold War? Chip War in Search of World Dominance Between US-China & Why The World Need Taiwan

    The ATMP side is for electronics manufacturing. The article mentioned "and semiconductors". The CEO obviously just read out what he knows and has less idea on the layers involved in semiconductor manufacturing and he doesn't need to know the technicalities. I have enough contempt against...

    TR HÜRJET-Advanced Jet Trainer/ Light attack aircraft

    I think whoever is making the plans is overly optimistic. Turkey is developing its own fighter for the first time. Unmanned systems though impressive is different than the manned systems. Refining the Flight control laws themselves will take time with testing. And if there are Hardware design...

    India Missiles and Guided Munitions

    I think the Agni 6 is an MIRVed A5 with similar range. As far as I know and understand, the scientific community has not received clearance to test very long range missiles. Even 8k got A5 is possible with an smaller yield payload. So A6 has to be heavy/probably bit long to carry more payload...

    They will get more. Whether you like it or not, NDA has bungled up the economy or the sudden lockdown or migrant crises or the second wave. The punishment meted out to ministers say it. Though I don't believe INC can win with RG as its face, background work has started with Pawar and PK to...

    Sure and true. My stinging criticism of Congress is due to my innate wish for my country to have a capable opposition to bring the ruling dispensation to book. I want a strong opposition that it should be an alternative when I vote for it. There are a lots of things INC can corner BJP right now...

    The thing is during annihilation, all parts of the party pushes back with it's all might with whatever resources available or borrow resources. This party is worried about P Chidambarsm losing his influence in inner core (he can never win his own constituency independently) or the family wants...

    Not gonna happen. Already Priyanka Vadra's sons have become "Gandhis". The core is so corrupt that they cannot tolerate each other at the top. They need a common corrupt buffer to maintain that inner ring position. I really thought post 2019 RG took an wonderful decision and someone in the...

    2024 might see Mamata for the race. But will INC bite the bullet? She will swallow the INC from the whole and they know her. But whether she succeeds or not, India needs an strong opposition.

    Space diplomacy: India building ground station for Asean countries in Vietnam

    Can be done. But could be costly for both India and Indonesia. I mean as soon as a rocket is made, it goes through a series of tests, and still undergoes final tests at the launch port. I mean India can make rockets and ship there while Indonesians can take over testing, integration, assembly...
