    Government of Canada announces key milestone in process to replace Canada’s fighter jets

    If at end of this F-35 wins....it would have been huge delay and cost increase for no reason on Canadian taxpayer....other than political drama expediency. With F-18 out.....Gripen is literally only thing that makes sense in the (cost reduction) argument that was proposed in exiting the...

    Navy NSP Infrastructure and docking facilities

    Yes I have noticed lot of defence enthusiasts often (faultily) compare programs in general "apples - apples" way unfairly....given one program includes structural things another might or does not. It is important to always look into (as much detail as possible) what is included in the costs...

    Turkey, Armenia to appoint envoys in bid to normalize ties: FM

    Generally what I do (in my section) is I let members post however they want (news etc)....new threads or existing ones is fine. Then each month end I archive whats needed into the existing ones to keep the forum organised. It basically gives about 1 - 2 months for "headline" threads to exist...

    TR Economy & Updates

    I'll give you points for creativity. You don't seem to get how markets work... Multiple suppliers means when input price drops, price-control cooperation is impossible (simply too many moving parts given their numbers and competition). One will always undercut the other (selling lower to...

    Morocco Moroccan Armed Forces

    Morocco GDP is 112 billion USD in 2020. For its population (37 million) it must be increased much more than that. I am guessing 12.8 billion is the entire govt budget? Seems too big for just military. Anyway the economic growth was quite good up to 2008 and has floundered since...

    India Air-Force Indian Air Force

    Doubt it man, lot of aerial encounters worldwide have never been resolved, esp if the politics calls for it. Even with IAF-PAF....there is tons of stuff left unresolved from 71 and 65. India simply has to go from 10 times (now) to 20 times and then 30 times on relevant funding and power...

    India Air-Force Indian Air Force

    Its bad whichever way it was being claimed if you think about it. There was either: 1) yet another "go to reel" to trot out (like MKI downing)...i.e successful execution on the IA forward bases supposedly targetted (rather than what the CAP forced them to abandon hastily). 2) there was...

    India Economy + Infra Archive

    I'm going by world bank: https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/NY.GDP.MKTP.CD?locations=IR It seems it was 600 billion around 2012 and then has taken a huge tumble now in USD value since then. I had quick look into it just now...(Iran GDP estimate in USD). I think world bank applies what the...

    @Indos Regarding more on NIIP.... Wiki page has interesting table (using IMF data: https://data.imf.org/regular.aspx?key=62805745) when you order by biggest negative NIIP: in that in South Asia: Pakistan has about 1/3rd the negative NIIP (net external liability) of India....but on an...

    India Economy + Infra Archive

    Is there link to this statement the budget will be 800 billion for just one year? Its definitely BS btw. Maybe he means for like 5 or 10 year total projected spending plan or something I dont know. Iran GDP is barely about 200 billion USD right now in nominal terms because of its very low...
