Those Close air combat days with gun tactics.

 I miss those wild air combat sorties – throwing the aircraft around.

Puzzle solving: SUDOKU

Interesting one called KROPI

Rules: All pairs of touching squares which contain consecutive values (such as 2 & 3 or 6 & 7) are marked with a white circle. Also, all pairs of touching squares which contain values where one number is exactly twice the value of the other (such as 2 & 4, or 4 & 8) are marked with a black circle.

Read an article in The Telegraph about migrant workers.

India & Russia Plan to Extended Range of Brahmos Missile

 

  • India and Russia plan to collaborate on improving the strike range of the Brahmos missile. The upgraded Brahmos will have a range of 800 kilometers (497 miles) compared to the present 280 kilometers (155 miles). The improved version of the Indo-Russian supersonic missile will also have a lot of new features.

 

  • The Brahmos is developed and produced by BrahMos Aerospace, a joint venture between India’s Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and Russia’s Mashinostroyenia.

 

  • At Mach 2.8, the Brahmos is the world’s fastest cruise missile.

 

  • Its land and ship-based versions carry a payload of up to 200 kilograms (441 pounds), while the air version can carry a warhead of up to 300 kilograms (661 pounds).

 

  • India is integrating the Brahmos on Sukhoi Su- 30MKI fighters.

तू जिंदगी को जी,

उसे समझने की कोशिश ना कर।

 

कुछ बाते रब पर छोड़ दे, सब कुछ खुद

सुलझाने की कोशिश न कर….!
