I'm in Canada so generally afternoons-evenings Eastern Time.....so probably late night onwards in India time.

The reaction stats get scrubbed by the merge process though heh. Oh well.

Surprising it took 6 months of war to get even this. This is after all just visa facilitation.....rather than carte blanche visa ban (i.e they will still issue visas, but Russia will be lumped in with rest of world like China, India, South America, Africa etc). This should have been done in...

Well what they have going on with others should not preclude making the offer to help with physical goods. I remember they sent some relief to Gujarat Earthquake, even though it was just 2 years or so after Kargil. Its perfunctory stuff in the end, but I think its still somewhat important to...

Looks like a COTS GPS also being used.....

Outgoing VN ambassador to India talks about the growing defence ties (like VINBAX) and also commercial and cultural ties. Very well spoken and passionate gentleman. His successor hopefully continues the positive trajectory as well as possible.

Best wishes to all Turkish members and their nation on their victory day.

Yes humanitarian aid should be external to politics.

I'd say this is more or less my take on it too. It has been accelerated ever since Obama lost the 2010 midterms heavily and he weaponised identity politics (to stitch the so-called intersectional coalition) to push past what couldn't be done cleanly and with policy arguments. All with the...

uranium one and killary. nuff said.

Mostly a summary of what happened in month of july this year:

The strategy will be optimized appropriately and there will be greater reliance on surface ships (and P-8 poseidon etc) for underwater threats. There will be less direct deterrence potential compared to SSN (given SSN's extra degrees of freedom in its specific realm), but there will be similar...

Fatigue simulation and testing would involve broad spectrum of expected load profile and expected durations etc. G-loads would be the largest component of these in general, but there would be plenty of others like vibration, pressurization cycles, known impact loads and so on. These all depend...

CATOBAR vs EMALS would be something to be determined with time. It will "at least be" the former....but if IFEP cooperation with US/UK/France goes well (a MOU has been signed with a GE arm where all 3 countries are involved)..... and trust is built/leveraged well.....it could very well extend...

Had to look for it, its here: https://defencehub.live/threads/indian-navy-general-archive.93/page-12#post-139350 However one has to remember this is during phase (1990 - 2020) when India was moving into an investment ramp (still ongoing) unlike more matured capacities in west (and also...

We just started off on wrong foot on this forum, it happens (trust me I share lot of your concerns about India, but this forum has a way to go about it best that you will find with time and experience here). So there is no real reason to not agree on many things on all kind of topics simply...
