Indian Air Force: News & Discussions

Nop, those factors were considered into database. CMO even considered IRST parameters, FLIR during the simulation.

1. Conflict simulation on Tibet region.
Fleet mostly took off from Hotan

2. Conflict simulation on Karachi
Fleet mostly took off from air bases in Pakistan

3. Conflict simulation in A&N island.
Fleet mostly took off from Yunnan provinces.

1.) If those flights took off from Hotan , they're targeting Ladakh & J&K . Hotan itself is vulnerable to the IAF. Look at the dispersed bases not just in that region in question but also surrounding regions as far as the IAF is concerned.

2.) Immaterial. Paxtan is not going to base PLAAF nor will they be part of this . If they do they'd be nuked . What's more they know it !

3.) That's where we'd be basing the Rafale M along with the MKI.

It's going to be a roughly even contest . It's not going to be a one sided affair your civilian defence enthusiasts think it'd be.

Absolutely correct but not for J-20s.

The normal carry for stealth fighters is only that much what it can internally carry, not it's absolutely total payload. For J-20 it's hardly 1.5t (4x PL-15s of 250kg each and 2x PL-10s of 100kg each); a fraction of its total payload.

I meant the total carrying capacity including fuel. J-20s have a 2000 kms combat range other than while operating from Tibet. That's the reason they've been practising air refuelling over Tibet flying with partial load of fuel .

you will lose in real war because what really will change a war is Lasers destroying ICBMs and Biological weapons to clean large armies, remember the Russians claim Genetic weapons exist

The US is conducting military biological research aimed at discovering new harmful bacteria and viruses tailored to infect certain races, nationalities and even residents of specific regions, Igor Korotchenko, military analyst and editor-in-chief of "National Defense" magazine told Sputnik.

It makes sense, in place of (((offsets))) in exchange for 36 IAF + 26 IN Rafales we get access to specific baguette tech items/support

1. Dassault design support for TEDBF/ORCA( )
2. SSN class pumpjet tech
3. Safran support for IMRH engine, spoon feeding for our DRDO boys basically to make the whole engine
4. Same as the above but for whatever is Kaveri's tech related issue
5. Anything else y'all nibbiars think we can get from Frenchies?

inb4 anyone misunderstands, we will pay for these but ofc for that these have to be on offer first.

UK, Italy invite India to join GCAP 6th generation fighter programme
Defence Forces Newsroom December 28, 2024 62

In a move that could significantly reshape the landscape of international defence collaboration, the UK and Italy have expressed their support for inviting India to join the Global Combat Air Programme (GCAP). This ambitious initiative, which already includes Japan, aims to develop a sixth-generation stealth fighter by 2035. This is not the first time India has been approached to participate. Two years ago, the UK extended an initial invitation for India to join Project Tempest, the precursor to the current GCAP.

Reino Unido e Itália convidam Índia a participar do programa do caça de 6ª geração GCAP - Poder Aéreo – Aviação, Forças Aéreas, Indústria Aeroespacial e de Defesa

You are assuming that they will honor them in first place.

MRFA is back because, Rahul Gandhi cried scam and entire bajapa wants to show they are non corrupts.

Decade passed now. Ideally should went for same G2G deal of another 72 (if money is there) to get that number.

But here we back with same circus.

 

[Bleh]

To fight against capable enemies like China and Pakistan even 45 squadron is not adequate. IAF always wanted sanctioned strength of fighter squadron to be atleast 55 squadrons minimum.

Will probably reach 45+ squadrons if you count the Ghatak drones & replace AJTs with LIFTs. Maybe get dinner smaller stealthy tactical bombers.

Reflected Radio waves can be reflected back by ionosphere and picked by Radar? Radar can infer wrong position? GCI can direct plane to wrong coordinates? Now I am not sure if the Missile Fired was a R-73 slaved to HCS? who knows whats the details. But he is an officer - he must have his reason to believe it was kind of mirage. And he also pointed that these things happened only in specific months of year..

kind of mirage

Mirage you say!!!!
Phir se blue-on-blue to nahi kar diya na!

Reflected radio waves will show a scatter pattern / whitenouse on radar, not a point / object.

Radar can infer wrong position but that won’t be an illusion which eye can see but radar calibration issue.

Even for HCS lock it HAS to be an IR lock, not LOAL fire.

Now I don’t want to go into conspiracy territory but almost all large Armed Forces have detected UAPs using multiple sensors which rules it out as a mere “illusion”.

In the lack of solid evidence of their origins speculations are bound to run amok. But yeah, they are solid physical objects with mass.

 

[Ayan Barat]

Okay, it seems you Guys are bit too excited about UFOs and aliens and probes. There are multiple phenomena and objects that can be classified as somthing "UAP". So no need to even think about this news unless we see some US Navy type FLIR recording of a tic-tac.

Moreover he's a retired officer, he can say anything. Especially when our official channels of communication can publicly put out stuff like this

When I used to describe our visionary UN Generals people felt offended. Now their intelligence is oozing out everywhere on twitter.

One point of time we have fired missile on it.

these things get tracked by different radar and sensors both on ground and in air . imho 100% proof these are aliens
