    You would be surprised the stories coming out of TN. I had someone when I was in college days, travelling somewhere in Sivaganga alone in a bus, person near me requested me to convert. My friend who is very docile, someone who in the gang is always polite, has an unknown hatred for evangelists...

    I am an Indian, and very few among us can claim that they know the length and breadth of India. Foreign journos who call themselves experts of India are just kidding themselves. The history of caste itself has a different origin. Caste was designed as a way to organize people back 5000 years...

    During the peak of Jaya wave in 2014, Kanniyakumari was probably the second place in country after J&K, to see reverse polarisation. Hindus voted enbloc for Pon. Radhakrishnan and he became MP without the support of DMK/ADMK in TN. The reverse polarisation is not without reason. Recently a...

    Growler per se it's not exactly an full time Awacs. It's main role is to Jam rnemy communication, provide an air bubble to.any incoming missiles, and Snoop on communication. So yes it's range would be less. Russians and the Chinese have. Russians are based on Su22 or 34. Chinese based on J16...

    That is cos USAF has enough Awacs in the first place. Our Awacs fleet was found wanting in 2019 with the aircraft directing the pilots sitting on ground. Netra took off only later. We have just 5 AWACS and assuming 2 are in maintenance, we have only 3. So it's not a bad ideq though SU would be...

    Haven't gone through it. But Covid came at the worst time possible. And a reason why fingers are being pointed at Wuhan lab. Companies were actually starting to relocate.

    The friction has always been there in UP due to history left over by Ayodhya or Kashi or Mathura. Riots have taken place long before BJP won 2 seats. Even in TN, friction exists in places like Coimbatore and Ramanathapuram districts (with sig Muslim population) and Kanniyakumari (Christian...

    An Growler do not go into battle. Its an EW system.providing bubble to the air group. The only issue is assets are required to provide protection. F18 Growler do not carry weapons. It could carry when required. But most of the times it doesn't.

    Could have developed this model on Su30 seeing as we developed the primary architecture. But not sure about Russian reservations on them. Tejas range with 2 drop tanks are pretty big. I believe it's 2000km +. And you still have 5 pylons with 2 drop tanks. Even if 3 ASPJ are carried on 3, I...

    On ground it's relatively peaceful. If there is atmosphere of poison with 200m Muslims there would be issues everyday. Killings and rape everyday. There is respect on the ground. This is not to say tension or friction do not exists. It does and will be there but will be managed. However the...

    Japan and Korea do have strong navy compared to India. Probably due to their threat perception. But Royal Navy is on their way down.

    Idrw links should be banned. It's one of the most untrustworthy websites ever. They even take comment from Defence forum and post it as sources.

    Not exactly. Whatever be the system for the Nuclear role, it will be an individual system designed and manufactured in India. It may be just integrated with mission computer for limited diagnostics. Moreover some Mirages and Jags are with SFC. Mirages will be returned to normal operational...
