Was India going to give them a land route to re-supply American troops? Was India prepared to send it's forces to Afghanistan? And what do you mean by US has no sympathy... what are they supposed to do? Fight on our behalf? The US was attached and they returned the favor to the region where the attack was coordinated from. We could have done the same thing after Kargil, after Parliament was attacked, after Mumbai train bombings, after 26/11? The fact is our politicians do not have a back-bone. All they can say is something like this will not be tolerated again and the next time we will respond with force (that has never happened). Even in Kargil, we refused to cross the LOC, the end result we probably lost more soldiers than what we may have otherwise. What the hell, the Pakis are still occupying one or two posts even after kargil is a so called victory for India. American sympathy has nothing to do with anything. If we took the fight to the enemy the their first attack, one can argue the other follow-on attacks would have never happened. The fault lies with the Indian Spineless System, please do not point the finger at the American, or even the Pakis for that matter. Pakis have only done what they could while knowing that they are likely to get away with it. If we did something to prove them wrong, chances are they will not repeat that mistake again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050542.post-48378317082386338072012-07-25T22:41:01.289+05:302012-07-25T22:41:01.289+05:30Shiv

I believe Rafales and Tejas together will be filling up the numbers for the phased out Mig 21, 27s and jaguars. Even if the numbers are lower they dont necessarily represent lowering in capability. <br /><br />Mig 21s and 27s are at a lowest end in terms of range and payload. Rafales are much bigger and heavier aircrafts and can actually equal the performace of 3 Mig 21s quite easily. Not to forget we would be adding more Su-30MKIs during the whole time...another heavier platform. And by end of the decade we should be adding FGFAs to the inventory. So I dont see anything wrong with IAF future force projectionsJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08718303395713341646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050542.post-24596945606351859532012-07-25T20:04:08.386+05:302012-07-25T20:04:08.386+05:30@anon 8.45AM

Hats off to the Pakis, they milked the Americans like nobody's business.<br /><br />We may not like the Pakis but we could definitely take a few pages out of their book. <br /><br />As for the US..... they are far worse as friends then they are as enemies. Dont get carried away by all the friendly diplospeak. There is nothing special about US-India relation. They have no concern or sympathy for all the terror attacks we faced. Never had. Remember how India offered complete support after 9/11 and US simply walked over us to suck up to the Pakis. What make you think that would never happen again. For last half a century US and Pak have been allies. Even today US is pumping billions of dollars in to Pakistan while paying lip service to India about "strategic alliance". I call BS on that one.Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08718303395713341646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050542.post-12348719236979647422012-07-25T12:37:52.377+05:302012-07-25T12:37:52.377+05:30Shiv,

Similarly what about Apaches...will the exactly same equipments and sensors(that are fitted in US version) will be fitted in to the Indian version of Attack Helo ?(Including Apache Radar version.)?<br /><br />Have a safe journey.<br /><br />-----------------------<br />Journalists are Eyes and Ears of our common Citizen.Indiannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050542.post-61620868157458284842012-07-25T08:45:39.052+05:302012-07-25T08:45:39.052+05:30Joy@4:46

Since when?<br /><br />Comparing Pak US relationship to US India is apples vs oranges. Pak US relationship only exists because there is no other alternative at this moment. For US to support it's forces in Afghanistan, it needs Pakistan. The day US pulls out of Afg, they will stop paying any attention to Pakis, especially because Pakis have no money to spend on any US weapons. That day is not too far.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050542.post-21338523299561910662012-07-24T22:35:49.550+05:302012-07-24T22:35:49.550+05:30This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17806218239169938584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050542.post-984084734456439082012-07-24T22:35:20.238+05:302012-07-24T22:35:20.238+05:30This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17806218239169938584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050542.post-56864663052027631072012-07-24T19:49:18.469+05:302012-07-24T19:49:18.469+05:30Could you find out when exactly the C-17 will be d...Could you find out when exactly the C-17 will be delivered (ie what month in 2013)?<br /><br />When Boeing expect the AH-64D and CH-47F deals to be signed? <br /><br />What sort of follow-on orders do Boeing expect for Apache and Chinook? <br /><br /><br />And what camo schemes do Boeing expect for Apache and Chinook? ie standard dark green used by most operators or the grey used by IAF used for current attack helos and heavy lifters in IAF.<br /><br />What stage is the V-22 offer to India at?
