Agreed.. and those intakes are awefull .. anyway.. more then the looks it’s what it does is important at present.. and it is coming up to be good.. ..

Indian/Jai.. Do you have any idea as to who is going to take up the prime responsibility of the Glonass network from the Indian side when it will come to the launch and the maintaining the network along with the Russians..

I guess it would have to be more on the techical parameters that Navy might have brought up.. for which ISRO might not be having the resources to put in..
PT.. Finders are in active service now..
Would they be able to deliver these babies on time..
