    There were also some reports that IA was requesting for waivers and exceptions of certain tech in the import ban list and this news came right after the list was released quoting unknown sources. None of the weapons systems in the list are of critical nature and something where DRDO or some...

    Agree but not unless we have considerable numbers. With the current economic situation, I doubt it'd be similar to IAF's Rafale numbers if we ever go ahead If IAF goes for additional Rafales...maybe another batch of 36, IN could go for Rafale-M's and opt for local production Should be able to...

    While Growlers and Super Hornets are great birds which will multiply the capabilities of IN, it doesn't make a lot of sense unless they're procured in significant numbers i.e., all near future IN's fighter jet acquisitions for INS Vikrant (30+) and possible IAC-3 INS Viraat (54) should be Super...

    Kashmir news (Pakistan focus).

    You can continue living in your lala land and rant all day you want but the reality wouldn't change. Anyone who creates unrest and questions the territorial unity and integrity of India is a terrorist. If more terrorists are infiltrated by pakistan into our side of the LoC, we have every right...

    It takes a while for them to develop AWACS tech from scratch even if they hire consultants and/or DRDO scientists. DRDO should head the research while all production contracts should be given to private Indian firms. For instance, Pinaka rockets were developed by DRDO but are now being produced...

    If that happens, we'd start carpet bombing the shit outta those terrorists...and this is nothing new since pakistan employed the same strategy on their western front

    No official sources but read in a few forums that they were pretty effective during Balakot. Indonesia also requested a systems demonstration for Netra AWACS last year. Nevertheless, it's always a good sign to invest and induct indigenous systems to reduce foreign dependency and improve...

    Japan offers to export warships to Indonesia

    GoI should actively offer and bid for surface fleet tenders of East and South East Asian countries. Looking at the specs of Japanese 30FMM...our Nilgiri-class Frigates look relatively better with one ship already commissioned and 4 under construction Nilgiri class Frigates: 6670 tons...

    IAF realized the role of AWACS and EW centric capabilities post Balakot. While PAF has 10+ AWACS in active service with majority of em being the latest Saab Erieye 2000 which we have 4 AWACS with 7 times the land mass One more DRDO Netra AWACS was supposed to be delivered but I guess DRDO...

    AWACS is a whole different ball game but they'd still need around 30 fighter jets for INS Vikrant. There's still a high possibility for the Rafale M's if IAF also opts for an additional 36 jets. IAF could potentially go for additional Rafales if MWF gets significantly delayed IN already...

    IN is more interested in a medium sized twin engine fighter jet. The F-18 is significantly larger on the lines of an Su-30

    Why would we want to get a French nuclear powered sub when we have the INS Chakra SSN (Akula Class) and 2x indigenously designed and built Arihant Class SSBNs with 2 more under construction. We also signed an agreement with Russia in 2019 to lease another Akula-class submarine, which is expected...
