Eh Commodore saab kemcho. For those who dont know the guy explaining is Commodore Maolankar. He is first non British QFI on the Sea Harrier, and OIC LUSH upgrade program. Is a veritable genius on matters aerospace.

Whats Mark III Precious?

We got caught with our pants around our ankles effing the Ks in the West. This is the tax for forgetting about that.

Essentially an extremely useful peacetime drone that you can use to conduct surveys, know operational environments of the areas that you want to operate in during war. During war i can see this being used for mine clearing ops, pre amphib landing surveys,etc.

Oh Gods, MAXXON PLC and motors. Probably pigging back on EtherCAT daisy chaining with a central computer. Hobby grade work.

You are missing the point. Why I said Jags are the best at SEAD (after Rafales) is because of the EW suite. Had IAF really thought this out, they'd have stripped the Su30MKIs, created an Su30MEA(electronic attack) and run with it. That is still possible - with Uttam and domestic EW suite. Lets...

Theatre exploitation. How did Mirages manage to sneak into Balakot. Create and exploit local conditions. I am not going to say much more.

Hass rahe ho saalo. Kuch samajh hai toh nahi. The Jaguar has a unified system architecture that takes threat cues from radar, AWACS, GCI, tracks live targets picked up by the ELM 2052, has an onboard adaptive radar jammer in the D29 (at the cost of one 30mm ADEN), carries SAAW and Hammer stand...

Jaguars D3 with their AESA radars, and dedicated offensive EW suite, beats all but the Rafale for detecting, suppressing and tracking enemy SAM radars.

So range and payload make an aircraft a Wild Weasel is it? Oh boy

Wait. Who is in right head is poo pooing the DARIN III Jaguars ? And why the fuck are we listening to him? The D3 Jag is hands down the best WILD WEASEL we have in inventory right now. Nothing else can penetrate Chinese AD and knock out C2 sites. Except the Rafale - but your 36 Rafales can only...

Propellant.

Thats entirely the fault of IAF training. And indirectly MoD. They didnt procure AJTs for the IAF, so trainee pilots jumped from subsonic kirans to Mach 2 capable tailed delta MiG21 that has always been hard to master.

Directional mines are overrated. 155mm Arty shell go boom.

Sounds like a fantastically bad idea

Even Indian missiles have provision for countermeasures.

Not if you have given the subsonic cruise missile RCS reduction measures. Shaping/profiling/RAM paint.

My bad. I meant Bharat Forge, not Adani.

whole engines in stock? No, none. And there's your answer for why no follow on orders for the P15Bs, we are redesigning around the Rolls Royce solution. but we have enough spares to keep the fleet running, and Adani will setup a spares/engine manufacturing site here soon
