    Iran has <50 Asiatic Cheetahs while we have close to 700 Asiatic Lions in our wild. Our goal is to bring up the numbers on par with our Tiger population in the east. Nevertheless, Asiatic cheetahs are too few in numbers for Iran to give em up

    Maybe y'all don't poach animals in your homeland but y'all pay poachers and hunters in Africa to make those animals go extinct. I've looked into the kind of wild/exotic animal parts used in some chinese dishes and medicine which is exactly why they're being over-hunted

    Iran has <50 Asiatic Cheetahs...it's very unlikely they'd give em to anyone

    If only china manages to curb their crappy chinese medicine which uses a ton of exotic animal parts...the world would be a better place

    Bangladesh Navy MoD Declares Future Plans For Bangladesh Navy

    India can pretty much compete for all. Also, Kolkata's GRSE is one of India's leading and most productive shipyards building several surface ships for the IN and is in close proximity to BD easing training & logistical support...additionally Vizag's HSL and Chennai's L&T shipyards on our eastern...

    Ekambareswarar temple, Kanchipuram, Tamilnadu Originally built by the Pallavas (7th c. CE), the temple was again rebuilt by the Cholas, with many temple inscriptions detailing various grants by other later dynasties, such as the Vijayanagara kings and the Nayakas

    Sahastrabahu Temple ( Saas Bahu Temple) is an 11th-century twin temple in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, India. Near the Gwalior Fort and dedicated to Vishnu in his Padmanabha form, like most Hindu and Jain temples in this region, it is mostly in ruins and was badly damaged from numerous invasions and...

    TR Altay Main Battle Tank & Related Programs

    It looks like the RFI is pretty much sent to every MBT OEM out there irrespective of the country. Following is mentioned in the RFI which no tank in production meets as of now except the T-14 to some extent and maybe Israel's recently revealed concept "The main armament of the FRCV will be able...

    TR Altay Main Battle Tank & Related Programs

    Arjun's design is that of a heavy MBT in excess of 60 tons and there's only so much weight reduction one can do on it. The particular dept of DRDO which is responsible for development of armoured vehicles CVRDE is not the most efficient arm of DRDO causing delays of next gen MBT technologies...

    TR Altay Main Battle Tank & Related Programs

    Either country won't budge and we're both nuclear powers...so it's sort of a stalemate. There is lil to no chance for Altay to get selected since IA knows the pak-Turk relation and a potential possibility that PA will be using turk weapons systems Imagine PA's mechanized columns having aerial...

    TR Altay Main Battle Tank & Related Programs

    @crixus @Test7 several of these tanks don't fall in the same weight category that IA is looking for...Any MBT over 60 tons is not ideal for the terrains that IA operates in. If that was the case, IA wouldn't bug DRDO to reduce the weight of Arjun MBT IA will primarily be looking for an MBT...

    @crixus @Raptor what do y'all think are the chances for South Koreans given we've gone for the K9 Vajras. There could also be some potential scope in collaborating for our AMCA and their 5th gen version of KFX

    L&T all the way...no matter what experience PSUs bring to the table, I'd opt for private firms anytime. For instance, L&T delivered K9 Vajras way in advance than what they stated in the contract. GRSE is so far the most efficient public shipyard but they're mostly into surface vessels while...

    We should be able to ward off if its only one strike group since PLAN is expected to have 4 in total. We'd have two CBGs along with a bunch of additional subs by the end of this decade

    India Navy SSK Submarines

    Japan is very unlikely to export Soryu while Germany is not the most reliable defence partner. Also, it is best to go for some French variant to maintain commonality and uniformity among our fleet. A whole new platform altogether will only create logistical & maintenance issues along with the...

    The first RFP for FICV/FRCV came out in 2017 which was scrapped and now re-issued again. This is very likely to get scrapped and we'd end up license producing more T-90s

    I wonder which tank currently in production fits the bill or they actually expecting to develop a whole new tank altogether which'd take forever
