  1. THE DAY SOMETHING LIKE THIS COMES OUT OF INDIA I THINK THERE WILL BE A LOT OF PROUD INDIANS IN AND OUTSIDE INDIA

  2. Anonymous@7:39pm – You've got to be f**king kidding me?

    Close to €1billion is being spent on development and procurement of 5 aircraft. Its slated to be a replacement for Luftwaffe's Dassault-Breguet Atlantique. In a time when Europe is begging and borrowing, this is an expensive toy. Target practice even for those cold war era SAMs.

    Anyway, lets stop cracking jokes. Life in the hindu-pak region is not worth that much 😉

    [email protected] Pakistan is a failed country projected to break up by 2015, whereas same study projects India consolidating it's position as an emerging superpower.Here intelligence gathering platforms will play a vital role in securing India's economic and strategic interests.
    Life in Indo Pak border may not be worth more than 1 bn$. But, India's strategic interests now stretches from Persian Gulf to Straits of Malacca.To cover such a wide area you will need such birds.
