  1. I pray to GOD atleast this tender should not be scraped .

    Our Army / IAF needs massive Heli gunships with longer ranger anti-tank missiles to have edge with chinese tanks.

    we have ALH Tech , HAL need to change with high attitude engine + Longer range Anti-tank weapon for massive production . Govt should not allow defense units to become DEAD END SLOW Units .

  2. the terminator

    Hope the IAF's attack copters' RFP, babudom's political shenanigans and the kick-back syndrome and cry-foul sour grapes lobbyists do not scuttle these. I won't be surprised if these also goes the Bofors way. Indians with vested interests are there to do what the enemies can't.

  3. Shiv, we're still waiting for your indepth articles on the LCA..really, the LCA and LCH will be of much greater interest to people than reading about the Apache, Tiger, etc. of which there is a lot of info already available.

  4. Kartik: It's still work in progress. The LCA update will be up as soon as it's ready. It will be a comprehensive one, I assure you! No timeframe, unfortunately.

  5. i think u can probably start
    analysis of every major indian defence acquisition be it artillery,submarines ships etc

  6. Hello

    Now that you intend to post info about IAF 's would be attack helicopter, It would be great if you can post an update on HAL LCH, for which we are eagerly waiting

    Cheers
