    No not really, these are to monitor deeper into China iirc as the main role for now. Generally the earlier herons integrated with other assets are used in the other front with Pakistan....and will be in process of being upgraded this decade. India own UAV ecosystem has had a slow start...

    The replenishment tanker deal is pretty sizeable for example. Hopefully paves way for better things in future. Well...that was 4 for a lease, that was separate thing that went into acquisition for (supposedly 10).... first link I mean the one embedded in the tweets. Then these twitter people...

    TR Defence Exports & Updates

    Twitter is just a bunch of garbage larping 99% of the time with these handles. All I am asking for is an actual official source on costings, if intention is to compare. Then we can move to look at the capacities/roles of the platforms past that...those are not the same either.

    The link you posted at the top says 10 drones for 400 million dollars. Is that 100 million a drone? Twitter rumours past that is something to assert on?

    It's better to know than to think before starting this "its crazy!" assertion. Maybe actually post source of what you are referring to so we see what it is you piling on top of it past that?

    I mean with the SSN program now, Australia is going to have nuclear fuel presence and handling at various places anyway. Once you commit to that (over next few decades), it doesn't make much sense to be anti-nuclear in the power grid. It just involves application of the same levels of robust...

    Live Conflict Ukraine-Russia War

    Yes but these kind of things wont collapse Russian production itself.....rather add to cost of workarounds/substitutes and the manhours + investment needed for that etc. All things that are taken away from other things etc. An erosion over some (undeterminable) period of time....and only in...

    Yah but I mean the scale French strategically opted for in the 70s and 80s (I think stemming mostly from the oil crisis shock of 70s). Thats part of reason French also switched the TGV from gas turbine (in the original prototype) to electric as well. Germans didnt try something like that...

    Oil and gas guy I know also tells me in latter half of year, other problems will crop up given Russian reliance on western technology for various systems (that need lot of spare parts and special lubricants and expertise from west) pertaining to oil and gas fields + infra. That these were not...

    Any route picked, you will stumble into problems over time. Upkeep, new investment and so on, its budgeting demands and pressures. I'm talking about the route actually picked in forks in road time (over 2 -3 critical decades or so), Germany did a noticeably bad job on that compared to France...

    From trishna amrta: Anyway, if you notice The Fed Chair Powell 2 days testimony to US Congress in 22 - 23 June, the whole Dems entourage were bombarding Powell with political rhetoric of the so-called Climate Change, Minority Inclusiveness, corporate greed etc and attempt to press Powell to...
