    ISRO recently released (for world space week) a whole bunch of videos that may be of interest to some (can pick and choose what interests you)...regarding the space technology domain and some of the Indian context for it:

    Attack Submarine USS Connecticut Suffers Underwater Collision in South China Sea

    sub brief's personal take on it starts around the 9.45 mark: sub brief largely goes on same hunch I first had, its collision with underwater topgraphical feature at low speed (5 - 15 kts)...rather than any kind of other surface or submerged vessel. Combined with something in the submarines...

    They are symptom of a larger problem. Crash and burn is not the solution as another one like it will pop up just the same. There is a whole elitist group in the west that live in ivory towers thinking their shit smells like flowers. They have convinced themselves of a lot of immoral...

    Defence Q&A Is the US or China the world’s economic superpower?

    Yah I am talking more about the larger society rather than economy. Every large country is pretty different case to another on it. GDP is overrated to me to begin with. Standard of living (and transparency and full accountability of that) matters much more....and that is a deeper society thing...

    Defence Q&A Is the US or China the world’s economic superpower?

    I partially agree and disagree. China is a very different case in many respects. The transition is not inevitable or guaranteed...and it will not take on the same hue and form as it has done in other parts of the world (these countries are far younger nation states than China, which is...

    India Navy Nuclear Submarines (SSBN & SSN)

    We tend to learn about details of provisions in these things much later. Yep I agree. There is also lot on the shipyard process side they can help with modernising and improving (especially in something so niche like submarines)...with eye on achieving next tier level of economy of scale. The...

    Defence Q&A Is the US or China the world’s economic superpower?

    Issue is soft power needs govt to be less of a monolith....since soft power inevitably needs a lot of "A vs B" stuff at deep level in society's debate to generate, sustain and capture people's attention truly. Will have to see how PRC manages that.

    Maybe you overrated what the "sanctions" regime actually is. It very rarely can permeate to corporate arena (where profits are involved all around) especially in the non-high tech sector. Just ask China. They bulked up on all this stuff in 90s and 2000s....while tianenmen square sanctions (and...
