CI/CT Operations

I actually don't buy this. New generation EO payloads are sufficiently good to detect thermal signatures below dense foilage. SAR imaging is basically foilage penetration radars which can detect movement.

But no, MQ-9 won't be ordered, its corruption to give good capability to armed forces isn't it, strap a fucking mobile phone on Rustom and call it a UAV.
The quality of footage that you get depends on the EO/ISR pod strapped onto the UAV, and they can always be swapped out for a better one.
No point in the blaming the platform here, the MQ-9 is overtly expensive and will be a sitting duck when the actual shooting starts, it needs to be complemented by a larger force of MALE UAV/UCAV.
 
maannna padenga ,saale bhikharee hai but unme himmat bahut hai.

main toh kehta huun, unko khareed looo aur unse saara kam karwaoooo, unko paisa chahye
 
On whose instructions? Just turn off the transponder.

there is danger that drone could collide with civilian aircraft .

as a followup to your statement any UAV that doing patrolling at 10000 to 15000 feet altitude even with foliage penetration sensors wont make any difference in J&K topography, small UAV systems like DJI m300 type is well suited for this job, but again due to the fact OGW helping them and decentralized communication system used by terrorist always give them upperhand when comes to evading our forces, only solution to prevent this cycle more deeper human intelligence network, agency have to go out side the rule book get some OGW flip them with any means

can these drones pick up satellite communication . they are clearly there looking for terrorists . circling over mountain areas and terrorist hotspots .
 



some dude in old forum said attacks were surgical strikes and it is what it looks like .

they good OGW network , good equipment , good comms . they get good intel on military movements and numbers - take their time , hit us and escape .

everything needful will be done after losing small conflict with china .

MALE drones will fly too high to collide with Helos and too low for Jetliners. Then there are regional turboprops but If no airport is nearby, chances of any collision are very very slim. Just fuckin decalre a no fly zone.

I can get behind my theory that this is a bait drone , and another one is flying with transponder off to take sneak peek.
 
Can someone tell me what is the history of brigadier Acharya? I generally find mixed opinions about him.. some say he was sacked because of what he did to OGWs while others say there were some unspoken circumstances regarding his past

We are wishing that the conflict will be small but again who knows right? , also was galwan a small conflict? What improvements happened after that?
 
So Paff changed their name to kashmir tigers?
Nope, they never had any name. All of them are same operating under different names. The era of Hizb, Jaish and Lashkar are gone. Now these inbreds operate under different names. Now even PAFF has gone silent now Cuckmir Pussies are doing the same who used to kill civilians earlier (Krishna Dhaba owner's son for ex).
 
Equipped with powerful enough engines, then why not.

Even with the current twin 177hp piston engines, the Tapas Bh-201 is perfectly capable of carrying 350-500kg payload if not more.

Did the Army ask the same question when inducting the Hermes 900 with an Indian-sounding name?

Also if the Tapas Bh-201 is so terrible, why is the IAF and IN interested in inducting it?

Don't give me some stupid reasons/excuses that it is becasue of political pressure.

  • Equip them first with powerful engines & make it air-worthy, then we will talk.
  • 350kg is inadequate for a dual SAR + EO payload. Weapons (UCAV) payload, forget it.
  • Hermes 900 is benchmarking, it serves no useful purpose which Tapas can't. Also a poor decision, I condemn it.
  • Tapas is not useless, at the end of the day its still a drone with an EO payload and can be used in many scenarios. It is in the weight/size class of MQ-9/Akinci but offers capabilities of TB2.
Its better to have Tapas observing the skies than no drones at all. But that doesn't mean it is "adequate" and we don't need better ISR drones.
