for our 6' we had better be praying on Poseidon for now

nemesis4u:

Poseidons very hard to please
needs lots of pretty sacrificial virgins
in todays age virgins r as common as comets looking to hit earth
well Poseidon wight not be aware of clinical hymen reconstruction
so could give that a try
just pray to Olympus that Poseidon never finds out about the forgery

or do u thing juju will work on Poseidon

While Russian media calls the Su-57 an "aerial ghost," a senior scientist working on stealth aircraft for the US called it a "dirty aircraft," with many glaring flaws that would light up radars scanning for the plane.

Additionally, two of the plane's most fearsome weapons, the Kh-35UEm a subsonic, anti-ship cruise missile, and the nuclear-capable BrahMos-A supersonic cruise missile, can't fit in the internal weapons bay and must hang from the wings, as the Diplomat's Franz-Stefan Gady reports.

nemesis4u:
On Monday, in trial firing at the Pokhran Ranges in Rajasthan, the advanced towed artillery gun system (ATAGS) being indigenously developed for the IA demonstrated its potential.

The 155-millimetre, 52-calibre gun-howitzer fired three shells out to a world-record distance of 47.2 kilometres from the gun position. This was achieved using special, long-range ammunition called “high explosive – base bleed” (HE – BB). In comparison, 155-millimetre, 52-calibre guns in service worldwide fire this ammunition to maximum ranges of 40-45 kilometres.

Earlier, on Saturday, the same gun had broken another record by firing “high explosive – boat tail” (HE – BT) ammunition to a range of 37.2 kilometres.

Range, accuracy and consistency are the key attributes of an artillery gun. A longer range allows more area to be engaged from a “gun position”, without having to redeploy (or shift) the guns.

The secret of the ATAGS longer range is its larger chamber – 25 litres, compared to 23 litres in most 155-millimetre guns. A larger chamber packs in more high explosive propellant, which shoots out the warhead further.

After the gun successfully completes development and firing trials, the army is likely to procure at least 2,000 ATAGS. At an estimated Rs 15 crore apiece, that will result in Rs 30,000 crore in business for the production eco-system, benefiting a large number of private defence firms.

With the current round of “summer trials” having successfully concluded in Pokhran, the ATAGS will now undergo modifications and prepare for “winter trials” in December, probably in Sikkim. Each vendor will build three more ATAGs gun prototypes to expedite trials.

Another global first in the ATAGS is its all-electric drive, which supersedes the more unreliable hydraulic drives in other towed guns. The all-electric drive operates all the ATAGS’ gun controls: ammunition handling, opening and closing the breech, and ramming the round into the chamber.

The ATAGS is the world’s only gun with a six-round “automated magazine” that fires a six-round burst in just 30 seconds. Most other existing 155-millimetre, 52-calibre guns have three-round magazines, which must be reloaded after firing three rounds.

A high “burst fire” capability will provide the army a significant advantage since artillery causes most casualties in the initial burst of fire, when enemy soldiers are caught in the open (and not after they dive into their trenches).

South African G6 holds the record for highest range using V-LAP round.

1 crore is 10 mn rupees,and 65 rupees is 1$. A crore is roughly 160,000 $,so 15 crore is 2.4 mn$ per unit. Not bad compared to analogues,especially with its unparalleled ROF.

US M 777 155 Howitzer US$4.50 ml

SA G 5 155 Howitzer US$2.50 mln

Turkey Pantir 155 Howitzer US$3.50 mln

Singapore SLWH Pegasus US$5.00 mln

Singapore FH 2000 US $ 5.0 MN

Nemesis4u,seen this? It seems the PAK FA,SU -57 has issues.

This document is from 2005 that more than 12 years, it has lost its relevance if you ask me.
