    Batman Begins OST -Hans zimmer and james newton howard. i just love instrumental.
  4. i dont know why american allies are so afraid of the terrorists that they are not sending their troops(including my country),its not just only americas war. if at least 10 countries participate in this war fully,the talibans ass will be roasted. but the taliban rises again and again because of the support by gulf countries and pakistan. cut their supply lines and they will be dead. i know its not simple as it sounds. the marines need more "jokers".
  5. LONG BEACH, Calif., Jan. 8, 2010 — The Boeing Company [NYSE: BA] announced today that the U.S. government has received a Letter of Request from India’s Ministry of Defence (MOD) and the Indian Air Force regarding the potential acquisition of 10 C-17 Globemaster III advanced airlifters. “Boeing is very pleased that the Indian government has expressed interest in acquiring the C-17 to modernize its airlift capabilities, and we look forward to working closely with them,” said Vivek Lall, vice president and India country head, Boeing Defense, Space & Security. “We believe the C-17 can fulfill India’s needs for military and humanitarian airlift to help it meet its growing domestic and international responsibilities.” The C-17 conducted demonstration flights in February at Aero India 2009 in Bangalore, where members of the MOD and Indian Air Force had the opportunity to see the aircraft’s capabilities in action. The Indian Air Force wants to replace and augment its fleet of Russian-made AN-32 and IL-76 airlifters. “Nations looking to modernize their airlift capabilities turn to the C-17 because it has the highest reliability and mission-capable rate of any airlift aircraft,” added Tommy Dunehew, Boeing Global Mobility Systems vice president of Business Development. “It is available right now, without any development risk. Plus, the C-17 is an acquisition success story, with deliveries on or ahead of schedule for the past decade.” A tactical and strategic airlifter, only the C-17 can carry large combat equipment and troops or humanitarian aid across international distances and deliver them directly to small austere airfields anywhere in the world. It can land combat-ready troops on semi-prepared runways or airdrop them directly into the fight. The C-17’s ability to back up allows it to operate on narrow taxiways and congested ramps. With a payload of up to 170,000 pounds, the C-17 can take off and land in 3,000 feet or less. There are currently 212 C-17s in service worldwide, including 19 with international customers. The U.S. Air Force, including active Guard and Reserve units, has 193. Other customers include the United Kingdom (which recently announced a contract for a seventh airlifter), Qatar, the Canadian Forces, the Royal Australian Air Force, and the 12-member Strategic Airlift Capability initiative of NATO and Partnership for Peace nations. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) Air Force and Air Defence announced Jan. 6 that the UAE has signed a contract for the acquisition of six Boeing C-17s. From aviationnews.eu surely this news will get the airbus guys fuming. it is strange that A330 order was cancelled due to overpricing and now the govt is buying a aircraft each valed at 220 million dollars.
  6. i know that they fall in different class,only question was why buy an a/c thats very costs so much when you have option of cheap il-76.but now i got the answer. the main problem at ca is we cant delete posts which have been answered.
  7. bhai waise konsa use karte hai.
  8. bhai stick gmd is only required in the morning,especially in cases of constipation. well we have the potential but ione thing we lack is teamwork,everyone tries to prove him/her above others.second despite the billions we spend on defense we can not be a superpower unless we manufacture our own stuff. despite lca being not very good a/c it has helped us in understanding and learning the very process of making a plane,the difficulties encountered etc. main point is we dont have a long strategic planning and vision,we buy stuff when pakistan or china buy something. but despite of our failures remember this "why do we fall" -"to stand up again". but i think we should buy this a/c.
  9. plaese tell me how to manipulate specular,glossiness etc type of values.i've used notepad and hexeditors but unable to do so.
  10. hmmmmmmmm. seems like TK needs to do some serious homework.
  11. i guess the IAF guys are ordering them to rapidly deploy troops and equipment near the Chinese border as the infrastructure is not very great.
  12. i've edited the ini but as FC said it is manipulated bymax files but i found one strange thing,i made a skin for su-30 but i was unable to get desired result by editing the ini,so copied a f-15a's ini file and wow! it worked fine but main problem is i cant set the values according to my choice. upon playing HAWX i noticed that these effects make the model appear more realistic,so please help.
  13. hey i know the difference.i just want to show the american influence as cited by the media.the govt is buying a c-17 for a price in which we can by 4 il-76's and they say that the a330 is overpriced.
  14. HAPPY NEW YEAR...

    happy new year to all.
  15. the missile with white tip looks like derby to me?
  16. PAK FA Exposed in MAKS 2009

  18. F-35 Production to be Cut

    in my opinion adding more F-15e is a makeshift and cheap solution. on one side he says in his nobel acceptance speech that war is necessary and now this. Obama is confused, he should wear a pajama, spend some time in Alabama, and also play golf with dalai lama. sorry,the joke is as bad as the decision is.
  19. both F-15C and E look same,can anybody diagrammatically explain the difference.
