@Jagz1975 @GauravT71548031 @Somnath64806208 In my view losses, while really regrettable, are part of the risk of operations. The US has suffered at least 15 manned aircraft downed against Iran. IAF hit all targets, adapted to losses and finished the war. Why not respect that.

@GauravT71548031 @Somnath64806208 Sir with all due regard, open source photos provide 4 aircraft downed - locations and type too. Not much that’s kept from the foe.

@VamsiTatavarthy Let’s see :)

[Peeyoosh @Peeyooshch]

@VamsiTatavarthy And worth it

[Peeyoosh @Peeyooshch]

@VamsiTatavarthy Yes. A 1.5 to 2 billion hit per annum is on the cards

[Peeyoosh @Peeyooshch]

@deepakshenoy @Vipinguptaca It’s providing a direct subsidy of 2-4% per annum depending on your assumptions. May well be worth it.

@GauravT71548031 When does the 800 km version break cover?

[Peeyoosh @Peeyooshch]

@LuxuryWatchGuy1 @umzrs Crazy stuff - for USD 1500 you get fake watches that need an expert, time and sometimes tools to catch.

@Alan_Couzens Would climbing stair for 45 min (1500 steps) and 45 min of level walking qualify?

@Ahlawat2012 @GauravT71548031 @YusufDFI @IAF_MCC @DefenceMinIndia @PMOIndia Step by step. Let them get this done before they move to activities with greater uncertainty. Remember this is their first brush with making a full aircraft, that too a 5th gen fighter.

@India_Progress AQI is a real issue in Mumbai only in Nov Dec and Jan - driver is all the tunnel and infra work going on.

[Peeyoosh @Peeyooshch]

@India_Progress Fair - May is usually around 70/80 levels.

@sakthivel_cit93 @GauravT71548031 Is the right way to look at the situation. HAL had a contracted timetable- they committed to deliver on a schedule. As of now they are a year late. I don’t have to estimate the time taken - HAL hopefully did that before signing. Unless they are really incompetent.

[Peeyoosh @Peeyooshch]

@GauravT71548031 @sakthivel_cit93 There is no reason for the Mk 1A to be delayed other than indifference and poor project management. All systems have been assembled from existing components.

[Peeyoosh @Peeyooshch]

@Pramodph2019 Fair.

[Peeyoosh @Peeyooshch]

@Varun55484761 At least the mess that is HAL is coming into the open

[Peeyoosh @Peeyooshch]

@Pramodph2019 Most credible data driven estimates do fall around the 20 lakh or so number.

[Peeyoosh @Peeyooshch]

@omarali50 The issue is the success of the tiger program - we began with a few hundred tigers 50 years ago. They number around 3500 today. Need space that’s not there else man animal conflict is inevitable. Lots of things have been done, tiger corridors etc but too many cats.
