It's possible. I think Agni V was only recently inducted after several user trials. So they wanted to have Agni IV in the meantime. Agni V has several new tech, carrying over several improvement from Agni Prime which I think have delayed it's induction. Anyway I am eagerly awaiting for K5 SLBM...

Pretty surprised India inducted Agni IV. I was under the impression that they skipped it and went to Agni V directly as Agni IV does not give any advantage over our adversaries. I mean Agni II and III already covers Pakistan. IV is an overkill and doesn't cover whole of China which the V does...

What is Indian army air support officer? More so maybe related to Helis. Even if it's there, what they have to do with Astra missiles which is an exclusive domain of the IAF.

Indecisiveness among Indian leadership. Even when this new MRFA was launched, many people questioned it's purpose when Tejas Mk2 was already in the offing and they both will enter production at the same time. IAF stuck to it's gun saying it needed them. The MoD or PM should have convinced or...

Sure. You can merge it later. Just wanted to discuss the implications of this missile. Would potentially replace Harpoons (in longer term) and Sea eagle, kh35. Would also be an great selling point of Dhruv if they integrate it on them.

Range of 5 to 55km. First in series of indigenous heli bourne anti ship missiles.

There is nothing interesting in the article uunfortunately. We help them for what? So we can gift ourselves another 26/11 a few years from now? TBH I have my sympathies with the common citizens of Pakistan. But at the end of the day, they are not the deciding authority. Their establishment is...

Watched it live since 2 am here

Needs an separate thread. Rare India winning world cup other than Cricket, Hockey and Kabbadi. Indos was very hopeful Indonesia will make it 15th.

Not sure what to add. India already has robust semi conductors design base. All major companies have bases here. Plus I am not sure what this news means. Training in this field would require lots of infrastructure wrt to software where license would cost 6-8k per year. If they are going to...

Fake news. Unfortunately our so called defence Twitter accounts are copy pastes types. They don't have sources to verify. Just like the Sai baba chain link on WhatsApp.

I am still not 100% by the news. If I am developer I would make any changes to the prototype under testing so as to control and Hw and FW. After it's stabilized, then yes you give it to a company who has had experience manufacturing radars. BEL does them. Data patterns do them. Or it is just...

Not sure if this is accurate as LRDE is the developer. Does this.mean Astra has won the contract to manufacture radars?

Probably India's longer third SSBN S4 getting ready for Sea Trials.

I will still hold my horses. MoU is nothing new for India. Same Karnataka govt had signed an MoU back in 2017 for an Silicon plant. The problem is this plant is a partnership of 4-5 companies. So I would.wait for more information. The news is this consortium is still discussing deals with other...

India is spending close to 2.5B for SL.to help it tide it's.crises. China has agreed to debt rollover of 4,B actually. BD has given 500m. India should extract guarantee that 18th amendment as promised to India is implemented and fishing rights around Katchateevu even if the island couldn't be...

After seeing the comments on PDF, I am actually very convinced, India, her democracy and people are far far ahead in terms of political maturity and far sightedness. With respect of @Joe Shearer comments on "WhatsApp" wingers, even they are far far better compared to the supporters of PTI...

There is a proverb in Tamil. A person is having butter in one hand, while searching for ghee. That aptly reflects Indian situation. There are two ways to go about it. The answer to tanks aren't necessarily tanks. One way is equip ALH Rudra with anti tank missiles. They are attack choppers...
