My earlier post on the matter on the warkop (Indonesia) thread.

Might as well start a thread on it, it could take some time to resolve it looks like. https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/thailand-cambodia-malaysia-fighting-1.7594768 Fighting on the Thai-Cambodian border extended into a third day and new flashpoints emerged on Saturday as both sides said they had...

Starting to boil over in pretty unprecedented way politically: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cn8185e19l4o

"DRDO, in a major boost to India’s defence capabilities on Friday successfully carried out flight trials of UAV Launched Precision Guided Missile (ULPGM)-V3 in the National Open Area Range (NOAR), test range in Kurnool, Andhra Pradesh. ULPGM-V3 is an enhanced version of the ULPGM-V2 missile...

No reason for it to be non-continuous (radar here is both the nose and cheek combined into a blob), the issue for all a/c is the non-transparent body (to radar): The cheek antennas probably already do a large part in extending coverage to 270 deg, as with nose only its likely less than 180...

Indo-China has had a ton of war in 20th century though....really bad blood simmers between a lot of them deep down and also the VN-PRC one that PRC escalated in 79 along with the SCS 9 dash line spratly stuff they assert for no good reason that makes things worse. Indonesia is just far enough...

I guess both are closely related in their core tech. The LRAShM is anti ship focused (i.e future navy) The ET-LDHCM is likely going to be multi platform....i.e TELs and air launch versions as well etc. Hope they pick some easier monikers later as they mature.

Actually the original ET article used "testing" in the headline but "tested" in the article body: https://armyrecognition.com/news/army-news/2025/india-reportedly-tests-new-et-ldhcm-hypersonic-missile-that-flies-at-mach-8-speed-to-bypass-enemy-air-defense-systems The lead up to it was here...

From what I can tell, there was a reporting of "under testing" in ET news article, and then dozens of other websites basically copy paste syndicate it etc and change it to "tested". What the nature of all that, DRDO has not substantiated, so I would wait and see how it concretely develops with...

They have finally fixed it and it has left. Coincided pretty well with PM Modi visit to UK coming up shortly. Relations between 🇮🇳 and 🇬🇧 are strong.

Really sad to hear. RIP to all those that perished, especially those poor young kids :cry: . Condolences to all their families.

I quite enjoyed the animated clone wars for sure. They got more time to get into the action and character development from that....compared to a movie you only have so much time. The 2D cartoon clone wars (before the 3D animated one) I often refer to that as just "clone wars" too. They made...

I used to accept the prequels as canon, lately not so much.....they dont make the Jedi good+competent enough tbh (given the grip and totalitarian oppressive power the Sith have in original trilogy and Jedi in slow build up phase with rebels that sets up what the prequel ought to be). Major hole...
