Joint exercise will be staged from Kolra air base

No chance. This AESA radar cannot support LY-80. For that there're CW illuminators like MR-90. Once its kaput, LY-80 is on its own. AESA here is just for air search role, no weapons guidance.

Superb picture.

I fail to see the reason why an AESA radar is deployed on these vessels. In addition to a long range air search radar(Type 517, VHF set) this system offers no real advantage here. Such active array radars on modern warships are usually needed for guiding medium-to-long range SAMs to their...

Yes. Home base, Bolari.

That bozo was referring to Mrs Sawaraj as He!

There's a reason they give away a prize to the best loser in boxing contests at PMA, Abbottabad, because that's what our army inevitably ends up every time during an India-Pak engagement. There's no chance Pakistan could ever stir up a war again with India on its own terms and by its own...

Sir, isn't MICA-IR in that class? With a range over 60km, TVC and a wide FOV ImIR seeker. BTW, Mirage pilots in PAF used to love the older Magic missile. Some even preferred it over the Sidewinder, for its accuracy and hit probability.

Looks like the American LRASM

Well, our own in-house BVR missile is in advanced stages of development! How many types would we be handling?

Very well said, sir. AESA brings with it a whole new world of possibilities. This sensor plus the fusion engine is a monster. Imagine the range at which you first pick up the bogies, the interleaving algorithms for multi-target tracking, the speed with which the tracks are established, sorted...

If it happens in a really bad way then let's hope Russian ICBMs start flying toward the CONUS and Europe!

Terrorist Houthis supported by a terror mullah regime!

There's no second motor! Dual pulse is a mode employed by a single motor. And it truly doesn't work in actual terminal phase. Rather it gives some sustaining energy after initial burn spike. One can say late burnout to early midcourse. That's it. Even Meteor's throttleable motor doesn't last...

Anyone knows what's the ejection seat in J-10C? MB or Chinese?
