It's actually not up to him. The Pakistani foreign policy is decided strictly by the Army-ISI deep state and the 'democratically-elected' government is only a puppet. What is happening now fits into a wider pattern of behavior & events that transpired over the last year. Post US withdrawal from...

ISLAMABAD — Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan announced Monday that his country will import about 2 million tons of wheat from Russia and buy Natural Gas as well under bilateral agreements the two sides signed last week during his official trip to Moscow. Khan pressed on with his two-day...

He was indeed appointed. I'm not entirely convinced he had links with Islamists, Tata Group is a huge $314 billion conglomerate and I refuse to believe they would appoint CEO of such a prestigious project like the revived Air India without conducting a thorough background check. However there...

Not entirely - Kharkiv & Kiev for example will be facing just that. Kharkiv is already facing it as we speak: While the rest of the country may see maneuvers avoiding population centres (like Mariupol for example), Kiev will be the exception as the Ukrainian leadership will be entrenched and...

Agreed. Unless there is a direct intervention by Western forces using airpower, its a matter of time before Kiev falls. It's increasingly becoming a prestige issue for Putin and that means they'll start taking off the gloves wrt leveling cities. They'll throw everything they have and Kiev is...

As I said, its unclear at the moment. The highest envelop that the M88 core can be pushed currently is 95-105kN for the M88-4E (ECO) variant. But that's only the theoretical maximum, far as I know the ECO demonstrator only pushed up to ~90kN AB. So unless there were some major breakthroughs in...

NASM-SR and NASM-MR (bottom-right) via Godofparadoxes MR appears to be a fundamentally different missile system with a different propulsion setup. Seems to be a derivative of Nirbhay (if the pic is correct). Makes sense...SR is mostly intended for air-launched applications from naval...

What I'm taking away from statements made from official figures so far is that they're being very measured & calculated wrt India. Yes, the immediate crisis is Russia and this will last the next few news cycles, so focus is there right now. But there's no indication that the larger aim of Asia...
