MikeCZA:
Different question then: What do those strips say about the missile's warhead?

Not industrialization then production? Different parts of the world! different cultures! Many ways to kill a cat.

it is not about different cultures,
it is more like 2 idiots not being able to communicate properly

why u meant by industrialization i cant comprehend,

but what i meant my productionization is , when a weapon is in prototype stage its components r manufactured in laboratories, but when the weapon moves on to productionization stage , its components r qualified for production with corresponding toolings at industrial level


inert /dummy warhead

frumentius:
Isn't that the same airshow where your neighbours withdrew the JF-17 when they found out LCA would also be flying?

yeah

lol they had to forgo about 1 million dollars or so (participation fee) which they had already paid

Goes to industrial level after reaching product base line or the production standard prototype.

Then tools(factory) for manufacturing the product are then put in the place. That's what I meant by industrialization.

yeah

ur correct ,

i meant the same but did not dealinate it since according to me/my knowledge/experience pre-production stage is considered part of the productionization stage cycle.

well the LCA has few months back entered squadron service , now thousands of pages of manuals relating maintenance, operation , flight tactics r being written.

mean while air chiefs of 1 or 2 countries have themselves flown the LCA , Myanmar might have second thoughts about FC1/JF17 if the American engine is replaced by indian kaveri engine.

present government is very tough on both DRDO and air force forcing it to play a pro active role in marketing LCA , Indian efforts in these direction r kept mostly secret to resist interference/pressure from other countries.

LCA went to bahrain air show and will be present in all future big airshow events provided all goes well.

MOD is trying to get private player into establishing their own production line for LCA but they r reluctant to take the risk , who knows things might change in the future with LCA mk2 , if close to 400 of them r ordered .

all depends on this government on being reelected again .

do u know the indian airforce test pilots claim that the LCA is better than a mirage 2000 calling it a mini mirage 2k , which is a good thing becz LCA was designed to replace MIG 21

How much is the export version of TEJAS.

please what's the role of Russia in Syria.
if Israel could keep on going on bombing runs in Syria. even going as far as palmyra.

the Russian contingent in Syria is a disgrace

I don't understand the politics going on in Syria currently, but am sure Israel is up to something.

really ashamed of Russia n its military.
China would have done a better job.

instead of Iran wasting its missiles in the name of drills let it deploy them to Syria.and form an air defence bubble. even its F14 are needed there.

Why should they?

Remember Isr...ael owes it's existence to the support of the US.

You want Russians jets or ADS to shoot down the Israeli jets?

wot Israel is doing in Syria is a slap to Russian face

y not,if US or the EU should establish a base or AD/AD bubble in Ukraine or Estonia will they Russia fly into it.

there is lot in play , which common people like us and the media even dont have a clue.

i hope u have seen boxing matches and u have also heard of matches being fixed where both the parties get what they want , but the general public sees only the winner and thinks the winner is the king while sometimes the deal might be such that the loosing side will ends up being a king for life .


geopolitics between 2 countries is like a boxing match with all kinds of shit thrown in , without the public being any wiser.

the Israelis and Russians were cooperating on middle east when russian sale of yakont to syria was objected to by israel , this lead to cooling down of relation. the israelis were transfer some real hi tech on UAVs against US wishes to russian before it came to a grinding halt.

however what i know at intelligence level , israel and russian ties r very strong, and not the least effected by their squabbles on other issues.

giles14:

US or NATO won't shoot down Russian Jets.

They'll rather scramble jets to intercept Russian jets.

tdayof:

since there is no export version as of now and the production run has only started it is difficult to arrive at a figure.
most likely 45-55 million with the LCA MK1A

yeah they might do so if they want to prove a point , but they will make sure their aircraft transponders for IFF r working damn good and not in non-cooperative mode .

this is brinkmanship , to gauge the response and line of though/posture/stance of the adversaries mind.
and the limit to which u can push ur adversary just before he begins to loose it

y can't the Russians also send jets to intercept them

Lockheed Martin to recoat U.S. Air Force F-22s


Lockheed Martin has received a $40 million contract modification to sustain the U.S. Air Force's F-22 Raptor fleet.

Under the agreement, the company will strip and recoat F-22 coatings reverting earlier than initially expected.

Work on the contract will be performed at various locations in California, Georgia, Utah and Texas. The U.S. Department of Defense expects the work to be completed by the end of June 2019.


Lockheed Martin received $6.4 million at the time of the modification award. The project will be managed by the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center located in Hill Air Force Base, Utah.

The F-22 Raptor is a 5th-generation tactical stealth fighter first introduced in December 2005. Lockheed Martin says the plane is designed to perform air superiority missions. The jet is typically armed short-range missiles and long-range missiles with beyond-visual-range capabilities. It can also fire air-to-surface weapons.

I think Israel and Russia have some diplomatic understanding on the issue of Hezbollah in Syria. With Israel in Syria, i think that is purely a Syrian matter.

If reports are correct, this would be the second Israeli jet shot down in Syria by the Syrians.

Project 11184 long range surveillance ship being outfitted

BTW the radar dome looks similar to the ISRO ground based Multi-‐Object Tracking Radar (MOTR) dome which can track 50cm by 50 cm size targets at ranges exceeding 1000 km

Indian 105mm guns r of 2 types LFG (light field gun) and IFG (indian field gun) along with their variants.

now private companies r working to upgrade these with digital systems , better recoil systems , traverse/elevation system , networking systems etc to enable better firepower and range in a netcentric battlefield.

"A beginning was made at the Conference by signing of two agreements between HAL and United Aircraft Corp and United Engine Corp of Russia, for general terms and conditions governing long-term supply of spares and rendering technical assistance over five years for the IAF’s Su-30MKI fleet."

At last the guaranteed integrated logistics package has been inked, following negotiations that began (believe it or not) in 2009.

Under this scheme, the JV called Indo Russian Aviation Ltd (IRAL) will own and manage complete bonded warehouses (for both the IAF & export customers) containing ALL required rotables and consumables for the Su-30MKI, in addition, to spare AL-31FPs. So by the year's end, Su-30MKI fleet's serviceability and availability levels will go beyond 75% even during peacetime.
