The ship launched Brahmos’ range: What range does the Oniks have? If Brahmos has the same dimensions and weight as Oniks, the stated range of the Brahmos is pretty moot. It might be more prudent to go with the Oniks’ range.

It might have the same dimensions but what about the internal structure of it ? its not a given that if something has the same dimensions it would autmatically have the same range.. What engines were used? what speeds were they to cruise at? does Brahmos have more or less sensors ? how big are the respective onboard navigational sensors ?

What type of explosives are used in the respective washeads ?

I see in the Farnborough line there is no mention of Eurofighter. There are two at RIAT. Two were flown out to Malaysia but they can’t make Farnborough? 🙁
mmitch.

farnborough is the most cloudiest dullest place in the world maybe the Flight computers cant cope with it and are going to a sunnier climate to get away from it all..

soem one might have just omitted it also..

nice pics JA!

hmm i would think the Australians would give higher priority to a carrier based power projection force since apart from new zealand most potential problems could happen at a large distance from the mainland.

Why not get BAe Australia to develope something similar to the SEA WOLF ? and use it as a UCAV/LACM platform?

the question isn’t about the top speed, but what’s the structural rigidity of that thing 😮 This reminded me of someone saying China building carriers because they build supertankers :rolleyes:

no please dont get that started again!

same with RIAT..

There will be more cause for celebration as the Tattoo marks the significant birthdays of two stalwarts of international aviation, the Hawk and the Hercules, and salutes the world-famous Red Arrows, as they embark on their 40th display season. Meanwhile, the operational theme Fighter 04 will bring together some of the world’s greatest frontline aircraft, including the Hunter, F-15, F-16, Tornado, Sea Harrier, the Mirage 2000 and Typhoon, in an unforgettable display of air defence and air superiority capabilities.

Have they decided to go with this solution until the ATV comes online ?

ICBM ?

I thought the furthest planed was to be Surya ?

Maybe AVATAR can perform a similar role ?

It is from a ship and those retracting claws would be difficult to put into a submarine at best.

the first question you should have asked is ‘how do you know there are aliens?’ 😉 secondly, i never said all aliens are bad (if any exist that is).

as for the debate about whether invading aliens are good or evil. will, go and look up the word ‘invasion’ and i’m sure you can work it out from there. 😛

sorry mate bad responce on my part but the whole “EVIL COMMIIEE” thing gets annoying.. I have not seen the use of that term to addresse the Chinese here in the UK and the first time i heard it was on this forum by GD himself. No need for it. No one thinks of China in those terms. (no one i know) people are weary of it specially governments but they have a reason to be it is one of the fastest growing economies with one of the biggest armed forces.
