India : IAF's LARGEST EVER OVERSEAS DEPLOYMENT GETS INTO ACTION
 
BY : PIB


The tough and prestigious Exercise red flag formally began at Air Force Base Nellis, Nevada USA on 10 Aug 08 with inaugural briefings & mission planning by the participating Air Forces. 09 Aug was the day of lead in preparations.

The Red Flag 08 has the participation of IAF with eight Su-30s, two IL-78 tankers an IL-76 aircraft & 247 Air Warriors along with the French Air Force with Rafale, South Korean Air Force with F-15s & US AF with F-15s & F-16s. IAF & other visiting Air Forces along with a large USAF element would be part of the Blue Forces (friendly) which would engage in combat with the Red Forces. The Red Forces are the "Aggressors" with F-15s & F-16s aircraft of 64th & 65th Aggressor squadrons of USAF based at Air Force Base Nellis.

Exercise Red Flag provides a realistic war situation in which the Blue Force pilots will have all possible odds `thrown` at them. Availability of a large air to air range with threat replication contributes to the tremendous training value of the exercise. The replication of the air war would see the IAF's Su-30 aircraft participating in suppression of enemy air defence (SEAD) air to air & air to ground missions. The IL-78 tankers and USAF AWACS would be in active support role. The IL-76 would undertake tactical transport operations & large force engagements operations.

During the exercise a set of Red Flag team forms the `white Force’ & use high tech instrumentation and mission debrief tools to evaluate the performance of the participants in a clinical and detached manner. During the exercise the Blue force are made to change their plans often to put them under pressure. The White Force watches the entire exercise in real time on monitor screens on ground. Kill removal (removal of the pilots and aircraft assumed shot by the enemy) makes the exercise more realistic.

Addressing the participating Air Warriors, contingent commander Gp Capt D Choudhury said" we have trained long & hard for this day. It is the time to show case our professionalism. I have total faith & confidence in you. The world is watching us, so gentlemen lets show them what we are made up of."

    LaRouche: U.S.-India Nuclear Deal Is A Disaster
    Increase Decrease

    September 5, 2008 (LPAC)--Lyndon LaRouche today called for the U.S.-India nuclear deal to be scrapped, regardless of the outcome of the Nuclear Suppliers Group meeting, and regardless of whether or not it results in the fall of the Singh government in India. LaRouche reiterated his longstanding view that India's future depends on the full development of its thorium-cycle nuclear power capacity. "The U.S.-India deal, insofar as it prevents the full exploitation by India of the thorium fuel cycle, is, in reality an anti-nuclear deal. It was a rotten deal from the outset, and it should be set aside, regardless of the short-term political consequences in India or the United States,'' LaRouche insisted.

    LaRouche insisted that "no nuclear energy cooperation agreement that inhibits India's rapid and full development of its thorium reactors is acceptable. Thus, the U.S.-India deal should be tossed in the garbage can. If there is to be any U.S.-India bilateral agreement, and if the Nuclear Suppliers Group is to ratify such a deal, then it should be in the best interests of both nations, and clearly this agreement, as currently proposed, is very, very bad for India. The thorium cycle is an existential issue for India,'' LaRouche concluded.



    Russia should scrap deal because India is leeting the wepaon secret to enemy USa through agnets in India like the traitor manmohan singh and his bastard supporters who want India to be cheap3end and weakend through american infiltration.


    Already Indian nu7clear capability has been curtailed and Indias let that pass! in any country people like manmoahan singh would have been brutally beaten to death -which he should get the treatment.

    Hindu gods spike Chinese dragon
    By M K Bhadrakumar

    India's National Security Advisor M K Narayanan made an astounding claim in a television interview on Saturday that "divine intervention" might have secured for the country a "waiver" from the Nuclear Suppliers' Group (NSG).






    "All said, therefore, the Indian government's decision to whip up a degree of public frenzy over China has been deliberate and well-conceived. " The corporate media eagerly lapped up the China-bashing. The large anti-China lobby in the strategic community in Delhi promptly acquiesced with "expert" opinion.
