  1. Nice to see INDIA's Pride TEJAS, A310 Super Tanker, C130J Hercules, Su-30 MKI & C-17 Globemaster (guess so..) in a single frame…

  2. Vin,
    the last is NOT the C-17. looks like a Boeing-707 though, might be just transport for equipment.

  3. Why not post the picture of the entire plan instead of just the nose cone? I am sure you have the pic

    Thanks for keeping these coming though

  4. Shiv,
    any idea when we would get to see Tejas with an In Flight Refuelling probe?
    nice pics..what is DPR Defence listed as your source.
    Thanks

  5. Is that a refueling probe I see?!! If so, it is absolutely wonderful to finally see it attached.

  6. Please post all pictures of all Natashas that you can capture (On the Camera of course).

    Where do you see a Refuelling probe ???!???? …

    IS IT A MOCK UP OR A REAL ONE ??..
    HOW COME A DROP TANK IS LYING ON THE GROUND !!!!!!?????

  8. The Tejas (which uses advanced AI to make certain decisions) discovered it had a refuelling probe. So it dropped that heavy drop tank which reduces its agility. Simple!

    BTW, you can also see the open door to the internal bay from which the Tejas dropped its tank. Goes to show that it was designed to be a stealth fighter from the beginning!

    😀
