#BREAKING: PLA takes the cloak off secretive project; showcases underwater tank designed to fight Indian Navy fighters conducting anti-submarine operations in Pangong Tso.
Note that our #expert #OSINT team was the first to discover that the Indian Navy was using Sea Harriers for anti-submarine warfare 👇🏻
And in collaboration with our partners at the defence portal LoveFest, we had also identified the Navy’s deployment of Sea King helicopters at the lake.

My #OSINT analysis of images from the Modi-Putin summit suggest that the India-Russia is at a nadir. #thread 🧵 [1/n]
Patio furniture procured from Home Depot demonstrates how dependent the two countries are on the US for critical needs despite their professed independence. Image
Putin has his hands clasped tightly, while Modi's has cupped his palms together, demonstrating Russia's unwillingness/inability to provide what India wants despite Indian requests.

This is an interesting thread in that it illustrates how the Russian ground forces are set up very differently from US forces.
In short, the Russians treat indirect fires as the primary element, with maneuver forces only helping artillery get into position and seizing an objective after it has been devastated.
So the artillery footprint is very large, and the firepower is incredible, although imprecise.

Practically every great power has developed their own unique doctrines for war, and their equipment designs have flowed from that. Strange that a son-of-the-soil type gets it, but our intelligent, highly educated scholars don’t.
Assault Breaker is a prime example, but history is littered with several examples.
Maybe that right there is the bane of India. It has been run by too many Srinath Raghavans for too long 😶

I wish to make a few points with respect to Adm. Prakash and Maj. Gen Hukku's conclusion in this piece. Qiuck thread.
The authors state that in confronting China, "The last option would, obviously, be to maintain the status quo — with 50,000-60,000 troops deployed at high altitudes..."
I want to argue that forcing a standoff along the land border should be India's *first* option, as this is where India's strengths lie.

1. Airlines have very stringent safety rules. Attendants can move people elsewhere from the exit row if they deem them unfit to carry out emergency duties in case of a crash. Individual passengers' convenience does not trump that.
2. Walking off the plane "all sprightly" is no sign of fitness to open the exit door in case of a crash landing.
3. Making up false stories because you think you were slighted, using your former rank and blue tick as a bully pulpit, getting your buddies in the media to publish a hit piece in record time—these are all signs of the same "VIP culture" that you claim to condemn.

Why is HAL—a company with 50+ years in the aero industry—being denied the opportunity to take over and rebuild Air India? Why is the crown jewel of Indian hospitality being sold to a private company whose name literally translates to “bye-bye”?
Reached for comment, strategic expert Patanajali Varadarajan said, “This is a disturbing breakdown in India’s values-based governance system. It speaks to the moral fiber of the United States that it has not nationalized a single government-owned airline.”
Renowned professor Gaurav Sabnis tweeted, “This changes nothing. The Indian air travel system was always a Brahminical setup. A high-quality, imported system called “Air Force” for the ruling elites; and a poorly funded and managed “Air India” for everyone else.”
