    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    Precisely the issue. SCB is not really barterable chips like some assume. There is huge amount of capital machinery behind it (and the technology + IP inside them, esp for process control). Turkey will not want to upset relationship with GE, till it has matured its autarky at deep level. That...

    The use of proxies by India and Pakistan.

    Intelligence networks, more than any other realm, require sound trust within itself. It is invariably very sensitive and reliant on a few core people and their teams....more than any other realm I can think of. Hence they are especially vulnerable in their early days of formation and gestation...

    Who has the best army in the world at the moment?

    Grew up having breakfast to sounds of "This is London"....*liliburlero instrumental* BBC world service FTW (and me dad's tuning into it). Thanks for posting this song that uses the theme....(and hitting the nostalgia for me)... Makes one want to enter a sinn fein rally and give em a real...

    I could go to some length to explain.....maybe when I have more time. In essence it is the algorithms you develop for the data handling (from the discretized transceivers that are effectively what TRM's are) that provide the spectrum of basic and advanced functions. These are set by what...

    India Army Small Arms

    Just want to beat me head into the wall each time I hear something about the basics for our soldiers. Vast bulk of our grunts are stuck in WW2 equipment with bunch of incompetent corrupt higher-ups keeping it that way. Absolutely painful to watch it in slow-motion snail-pace repetition.

    Lithium ion would be even better than AIP in my estimation. You are spot on about your last two lines. It is why for most part I observe. I have grown weary of expecting pragmatic defence policy sustained in parliament and bureaucracy.
