The Su-57 is a bad idea. Here's why.
The Su-57 is a bad idea. Here's why.
My piece on @ndtv as reports say India considering Russian Su-57 fighter. India must not buy it! š« IAF rejected it in the past. š« Russia itself has inducted very few. š« It doesn't use in its war in Ukraine. Couldn't establish air superiority. š« Sanctions = Chinese parts =ā¦
I donāt think so. 1- Project Kusha should be our bet. We are good with air defence systems now. 2- S-400/500 will come with Chinese electronics. Itās going to be very problematic.
š¤¦āāļøš¤¦āāļøš¤¦āāļø India, which withdrew from the Fifth Generation Fighter Aircraft (FGFA) programme with Russia in 2018 over concerns about the Su-57ās underwhelming stealth and super cruise capabilities, is now looking at acquiring the same aircraft. India is examining the possibility ofā¦
Pakistan's oversized nuclear arsenal and over-range missiles have been explicable for a long time. It's another matter that Washington & Western analysts didn't want to admit the explicability at the time.

Honored to contribute a chapter, āFrom Pixels to Proof: Geospatial Image Analysis of Indiaās Operation Sindoor,ā to the book āOperation Sindoor: Before and Beyond,ā published by the Centre for Land Warfare Studies @OfficialCLAWSIN and released by the Chief of Army Staff (@adgpi).ā¦
Back in the ā50s US secretaries of state Acheson & Dulles just couldnāt fathom why a very poor India was not falling in line like European & other poor countries. Ditto Kissinger & his successors. Looks like Washington still doesnāt get it.
India didnāt ask for this lose-lose game. Nobody in India wants a break with the United States. But nobody in India gets to make Washingtonās foreign policy decisions. 2/2
A fascinating deep dive into š¦šŗš®š³ relations and the Indo-Pacific with Nitin Pai @acorn & others at @TakshashilaInst. We discussed the #Quad, CECA negotiations and the strategic shifts shaping regional cooperation. @AusCGBengaluru @Anwxsha

"'Indiaās fundamental response to Trumpās tariffs shld be to unleash a fresh dose of econ reforms,' writes @acorn of the Takshashila Institution...Ms Madan..agrees: 'You can demand status; you can expect status; but the things that will give you status are growth & capabilities'"
Yes, a meaningful SCO Summit and engagements with Russia and China. But come on... Check out the agreements India signed with Japan just ahead of the SCO Summit. Don't conflate ponds with oceans.

There's a misperception in Indian media and abroad that India has suddenly swung towards China; that QUAD will cease to exist; and that BRICS, RIC, and SCO will become super vital from an Indian lens. That would be a wrong conclusion. #thread

This promises to be an excellent collection! Kudos to @ananthkrishnan and the team at The Hindu for putting it together. It was a pleasure to contribute a chapter on the political trends in China in the Xi Jinping era.
