Resultant - the Indian Army to clarify the remark by the U.S. envoy in his secret documents. American taxpayers are paying dearly for inaccuracies U.S. intelligence on Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan. The Indian army is the third in number and high-tech war in the world and consider it in the air, army and navy on par with countries that have more credit in the world.

India will use its indigenous nuclear submarine INS Arihant for 'deterrent patrol "to provide the capability of retaliation" second strike "after a nuclear attack. The submarine on patrol, will focus it's full of nuclear-tipped missiles can be launched from under the sea and hit targets hundreds of miles. Ballistic missiles, launched in July last year are ready to float in 2012. It is the first in a series that India proposes to build. Two types of N-tipped missiles are being developed for Arihant. One of them is submarine-launched ballistic missiles (SLBMs) --- --- K-15 Sagarika with a range of 700 km. This has been tested several times using a pressure vessel immersed in water to simulate a submarine-style launch. A long-range missile of 3,500 km is test and a test has already been done.
Navy chief Admiral Nirmal Verma, in what is a rare recognition of the country's nuclear capabilities, said today. "We have a stated policy of non-first-use ... But we have Arihant .. .. When it is commissioned and put to sea, it will be a deterrent patrol. The Triad (nuclear) would be there when Arihant is controlled ". The nuclear triad, "he said, would be complete only when India's strategic nuclear missiles that could be launched from land, air and sea N-submarine will be the third step called as often --- more reliable and discreet nuclear triad - - land, air and platforms to the nuclear doctrine of the Sea of India stressed that the nation must have the capacity.
We are trying to have a family of nuclear-tipped missiles including Agni and Prithvi series variants. In air, the Mirage and Sukhoi have the ability to deliver bombs N advance.

A variant of the air launched is also expected to be released in 2012 and will make India the only country with supersonic missiles in all defense forces. A version of the hypersonic missile is currently under development The BrahMos is a joint project with Russia worth U.S. $ 13 billion
Fifth Generation Fighter Aircraft (aFGF)
India and Russia has agreed to design and develop the fighter of the fifth generation (aFGF). The Russian ambassador to India, Alexander M Kadakin said all technical matters relating to FGFa program had been resolved and an agreement was signed on December 21 at the arrival of President Dmitry Medvedev's upcoming visit to New Delhi.
India plans to have a fleet of 250-300 co-produced the fifth generation fighters - the equivalent of the U.S. Air Force F-22 "Raptor".

Kadakin said that India would be a big part in design work and development. The aircraft of 30 tonnes will be a swing-role fighter with stealth features, advanced avionics, smart weapons, mission computers and high-end 360-degree awareness of the situation. He will have the ability supersonic, which allows him to fly at supersonic speeds. The prototype aircraft made its maiden outlet in January.

Top-level comments on this article: (4 total)This is a bit off the topic, Guarav, but your article made me think of how ludicrous it is that so much money is spent on arms. It's almost like everybody just accepts that it has to be, but it totally doesn't. It's madness!Jennifer Stewart, India is a peace-loving country and does not have the attention of attacking any country. His army and the war-hardware is a major contributor to the United Nations to act as a peace corps wherever necessary.
The construction of the military and the warfare is not madness but self-defense to counter China's warfare with which it has four thousand kilometers of border disputes .
A lot of information for anyone who is interested in what is going on in India.
Amazing of all the money is spent to keep the defense up to date for a single country.I believe many armies around the world are struggling with this entire issue.Unfortunately this leaks a further confirmation of the poor intelligence service by the relevant agency of the United States of America.Walter Borter, Your obsevation is correct many armies around the world, particulaly Muslim world - Iran are struggling to update before any aggression from us arrogance as it did in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Amazing insights gentlemen. Not only is it wonderful to see the viewpoints of ordinary people in different countries around the world, also it is one more very important reason why a free press such as WikiLeaks and the internet is so important to the truth. It allows us to have as citizens of an ever changing and diverse world the opportunity to sift through what is often produced in our separate countries as one sided and often propaganda laden news. We owe a great deal of gratitude to people like the Horst's and other similar venues of open discussion and shared ideas. Thanks for being a part of the dialog guys, and keep up the good work Gaurav, DM, Yosef, and others.David Levitt, Sir, thank you for free and fair comments.
The common people from different countries love freedom of expression, politician and public interest of other countries continue to violate our human rights différents.
