Are air force personnel trained to counter this without any outside help. Who are responsible for security of air force bases? How additional security arrangements are being catered? Security staff are retired army personnel or serving AF staffs? If AF force staffs, specially technical personnel are engaged in security duty then how is AF managing maintenance task of its fleets?

There have been reports that the atlas towed array and the sonars do detect subs at a distance of 100km way above the ranges of some torpedoes . In That case why would atlas and others design torpedoes that have 100km plus range?

The writer's News-Desk Editor should have asked her to reconcile her 'perceptions' with all that which is now in the open domain about the IAF's & RM's interest in the Almaz-Antey S-400 LR-SAM's still-under-development TBN versions. I would have loved to watch the story-writer's totally perplexing & horrified facial expressions. 2) Why should the IN be interested in acquiring something that's very much similar to what it already has in the form of Heron-1s? Truth is, both the IAF & In want to graduate on to the next capability-stage, i.e. turbofan-powered Avengers from US-based General Atomics. <br /><br />To VISHAKH & VED: Looks like these 'desi' journalists have yet to discover the existence of a product called the F-21 torpedo from DCNS! Whay does one do with a 140km-range torpedo when even a combination of hull-mounted panoramic sonars & towed-array sonars can give a warship an underwater surveillance outreach of no more than 20nm? <br /><br />To PRAV: 2019 will be a more realistic figure. And even these 20 SP-series will all be IOC-standard. None of them will have OBOGS or fully retractable inflight refuelling probe or MAWS or internal ASPJ or wide-band RWRs. Neither will the follow-on 20 in FOC configuration will be built because HAL has secured approval to develop a re-engineered Tejas Mk.1 to SOP-18 design standard which HAL claims will be lighter by 750kg. Exactly how HAL will achieve this target without stretching the Mk.1 airframe by 1 metre (which is reqd if all the above-mentioned add-ons are to be internally accommodated) remains to be seen. <br /><br />It will also be worthwhile to list out in chronological order all the milestones related to the R & D cycle & FSED cycle of the LCA Mk.1. Only then will one be able to gain a true perspective & contextualisation of the entire R & D effort. Prasun K.

Instead of running around like a headless chook the mandarins in MoD ought to focus on strategic thinking - form an alliance with a partner such as Israel and learn the wares.

Situation & circumstances have changed since then, especially in Karachi. Law-and-order situation is still quite bad because countrywide de-weaponisation isn't taking place, nor are the Sindh Rangers being allowed to venture out into interior Sindh, where there are more than 2,200 unregistered Madrassas functioning. Of course the pumping of some US$6 billion in concessionary loans by China for constructing coal-fired thermal power stations & some hydel power projects will help Pakistan overcome its now critical power shortages by early 2019, which in turn will spur industrial growth. But agricultural sector indicators show that the majority of the workers in this sector remain unemployed due to negative growth in this sector, especially for fiscal year 2015. <br /><br />Iran, blessed with rich hydrocarbon resources, will be able to pull through, unlike Pakistan. The short-term cirsis of Iran is in turn a boon for countries like India, since India being a buyer of Iranian crude, can in turn prevail on Iran to continue with the practice of barter-trade, i.e. procuring consumer goods in large quantities from India similar to what Iran had done during the sanctions regime.
