In the link posted above it says that this airframe was destroyed by IAF in May 2025. As predicted by many, Pakistan finally admitted loss of this airframe, but hid the 2019 loss till 2025

@indicahopes@Neetivaan My point is that it is sad enough that this has to be policy decision and that the armed forces, given a free hand always buy imported shit.
And since they do, no business wants to go into these big ticket items that wont be bought by their own armed forces.
Chicken and egg.
@gauravcsawant It is not a scientist issue. We all know how these are designed. the tech is decades old. its about having the manufacturing capabilities of producing products to that tolerance levels. Its a feasibility issue.
@vineetgarg2002@Neetivaan I repeat for chaman chutiyas like you.
MOST DRONE STARTUPS WILL AMOUNT TO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.
They have some piddly funding at the moment. But have no misconceptions about how substandard they mostly are. A miniscule percentage will make it big, but only a miniscule.
@indicahopes@VishnuNDTV@Neetivaan abe chutiye wahi to likha hai. Anpadh hai kya?
If the bigger companies saw a demand in aerospace products, they would hire more Aerospace engineers. This is just because they know the Armed forces simp for imported shit, and wont buy their stuff no matter how good it is.
@patla_haathi@Neetivaan WHO DO YOU THINK HIS PLAN WAS TO SELL TO?
if the INDIAN ARMY does not want a clearly great product, then he is now selling them abroad.
Armenia is buying 84 more after their first order of 6 pcs.

@KSingh_1469 4 saal baad war ho gaya to kya karoge? China ko jaake bologe ki chinku beta abhi 15 saal hum lad nahi payenge.. abhi humara engine ban raha hai... tum baad me aana.
@Neetivaan What exactly stops the adanis and ambanis from hiring indians from GE, RR and SAFRAN and giving them 10x packages to work for their R&D company?
The lack of clear demand. They know, that the IAF will do its RR. The officers and babus will choose what their honeypots tell them.
@Neetivaan SSS defence ko seedha seedha laakhon rifles ka contract milna chahiye tha. Why do they even have to compete with foreign vendors? small arms ko daalo negative import list me.
2026 me stamped sheet metal ke small arms use karte sharam nahi aa rahi?
@Neetivaan Businesses want to see demand. The demand doesnt exist kyuki armed forces and def ministry babus will only buy what their honey-pots tell them to buy.
If I know that even after spending billions in R&D, the forces will buy from Outside.. why would i care?
@Neetivaan You think modi paisa fekega to ecosystem ban jayega? supply-demand samajhta hai? Modi ne banaya na ecosystem defence manufacturing ka.... Bharat forge ne guns banayi.. li army ne? orders aaye?
@somnath2562001@Neetivaan@BsamaU7 Till the day morons like you exist, who blame political leadership for every problem in our country you can forget engines, forget roads, forget garbage collection from outside your house.
The average govt/ municipal employee doesn't fucking work in our nation. fix that.
