🙏 huge fan of Sumeet Sir...he is Amazing Encyclopedia of India. Even better than ''cjatGPT''...hats off..thank you guruji for inviting him... NKGurung..🙏🇨🇵
Very informative session, Hope India became a net exporter of defence equipment. Also we need more DRDO & ISRO centres across Northern and eastern India
Akash is SAM system for air defence. Trishul was given up. Agni series are ballistic missiles with various ranges. Pralay and Brahmos are real game changers because of their accuracy and tactical roles in conventional role
Sumit Sir, excellent analysis.. In lot of platform I am your huge admirer... But sir, I don't know why you sound absolutely special when you are in IYER sirs platform.. Hats off to you both..
Getting good confidence after listening to such information. Thanks to both of you. But only sad part is modi is not aggressive against corruption of political parties who looted India as he is with defence and external affairs, local infra development.
British created security nightmare through division of India. After the Invision of Tibet China became ambitious and working to control south and southeast Asia by controlling the water of Tibet and trade of Indian and pacific ocean and beyond. India and Taiwan both are main obstacles. All countries should cooperate on security and develop together like EU and join QUAD-Asian NATO against Chinese ambition to reduce defense budget.
You failed to mention India's progress on directed energy weapons, which would be game changer. Laser tests have previously been carried out by the DRDO.
Thanks for the analysis, Sree Iyerji and Sumit Peerji, We would like to see a war game scenario being played out on your show, which is based on the latest inputs
The IAF ranking is quite interesting. The ranking compares other airforce to the USAF and come up with a TVR (true value ranking) number. So here is the ranking order. 1. USAF (5209 aircraft with tvr 242.9) 2. USNAVY (2626 aircraft with tvr 142.9) 3. Russian airforce (3652 aircraft with tvr 114.2) 4. US army aviation core (4397 airc4aft with tvr of 112.6) 5. US Marine core (1211 aircraft with tvr 85.3) 6. Indian airforce (1645 aircraft with tvr of 69.4) 7. PLAF - Chinese airforce ( 2084 aircraft with tvr of 63.8) Our airforce has a lower rating than the least powerful branch of US military. The Russian airforce is twice as powerful and the Chinese are only marginally less capable. Quite interesting how the top 5 out of 6 spots are held by US fleets. Just the army core of the US has 3 times more aircraft than our airforce has. The difference is ridiculously huge. The marine core has less number of aircraft but they are more capable as they have heavy lift capabilities along with stealth fighters. The same is most likely playing out between India and China. We are leading despite 25% lower inventory against China because of higher technology levels. Unfortunately we will be retiring over 200 mig-21s soon with not enough replacement. Our TVR will drop fast. This why industries should not be harassed by government. Decades of harassing has slowly wiped out indian companies and left only overseas holdings dominating the ecosystems.
❤make QUAD A MILITARY ALLIANCE WITH NATO LIKE ARTICLE 5 in it.this will help world democracies keep china in check. India and USA have common democratic DNA that makes us allies.
I have heard this new narrative for sometime now. Seems like India’s heart is in Russia even while their brain says west. Like all the movies the heart will eventually win. For Sri, it is the other way round. His heart is in US. But his brain tells him he needs to pander to the wing of audience whose heart is in Russia and China
Forget about the Heart and the Brain - Our future and our opportunities are with the West. Our prosperity and progress and funding were and are mainly from the Western Institutions. Neither Moscow or Beijing is genuinely interested nor aligned with India's potential and prosperity.
1:22 India goes into Chinese territory on a regular basis as it's a disputed border. We patrol to the limit of our perception which is as often as happens the other way. What we don't do is squat there like when they come into our area which is the limit of their perception. Also, keep in mind these actions tend to be kept quiet as the opposition party will just use it to brand the govt as a warmonger. This creates the false impression that India is all goody goody
39:27 Where does it say INR is the fourth most circulated currency in the world? the only source I could find about this comes from the BIS and it has INR at 15th place and China at 7th according to Oct '22 which is the latest data.
41:03 I can't find a source for 'a hundred' strategic oil reserves. News reports say we have just three, Which is under Phase I. Under Phase II we are supposed to add two more but that has not moved forward due to hurdles with land acquisition. This means presently we have a max 9.5 days reserve. Had Phase II been completed we would have added an additional 12 days.
44:21 The PLAAF lost two thousand pilots over six decades or 60 years, not twenty years. That means about 1,000 in the last thirty years. India's record stands at a little more than a tenth. IAF lost 152 pilots in the past thirty years.
Too much jingoism here. Bring AIM to introduce some realism and pessimism. Then the assessment of our military capabilities will come close to reality😅
Sri, your topic for discussion QUAD India can cope with CCP QUAD time has to answer reg this group! Reg India cope CCP your guest being close to GOI he got info (make him an expert?) This guy got 0 knowledge of the opponent's capabilities (CCP) He is well informed guy Defence -.Expertise no comments! 70s 80s India was close to USSR Now US Both the cases misplaced Choice! wrong timing!
I think india can handle china on its own as china only using ancient weapons like spears, rods, nail studded rods, stones and what not to fight indians. In the recent tawang clash, indians used tree branches to chase away chinese troops.
MR.SUMIT PEER has given such a lot of reassuring information. I think we need more such knowledgeable people to come on air, to educate us about our capacities and the good work done by the our govt. Hats off to him.
India is a developing nation. Not interested in derailing our economy. India will avoid friction with China. But if China tries to be aggressive with India , India won't tolerate it and fight back with China and Pakistan.
Why did you have to bring the whole ro Khanna story here ! You could have done a separate monologue some other time about your intercourse with ro Khanna, isn't it sree ?
Thanks SreeSir for reassuring us on safety and security of Indians in India, through the excellant discourse by Sumit sir. Your Yeomen services recognised. With wishes and love to both of you❤
This is definitely the age of economic investments and growth for India but Sumit Peerji ki baatein sùn ké Mogambo khush huaa 😀 Extremely proud of our growing defence strength. 🚩🇮🇳🙏
Tejas Mark 1 has some glaring deficiencies, majority of them will be covered in version 1A. In recent exercises with Singapore Airlines (who have latest version of F16s), those fighter jets could not detect Tejas till 50 KM distance while Tejas detected F16s from 100 KM distance.
Sree Iyer ji and Sumit ji, thanks for your this very informative and educative program. As India grows economically and feels more secure at home, the responses of India will be more matured and less opinionated. All said and done, America is a powerhouse of ideas and testing ground of hard nosed ideologies. Even today India looks at America and Europe dispassionately with Indian heart and brain.
Thanks for all information. Only doubt is there lot of aircraft carrier, submarines etc takes time for actual production and induction. You didn't explain this aspect.
QUAD is of no use to India.. Quad me India ke alawa ek fattu aur 2 uske chammach hai.. Indochina war me fattu bhag jayega aur uske chammach uske peechhe. India and Indians can handle China and Pakistan together alongwith indirect support of Russia and India's friend countries..
We should never be afraid of Chinese, that is our defence. Why fof so long those parties were teaching us of to be afraid of these people. They are coward and deceptive only nothing ekse. We should be more offensive and should entet their territory and rename parts of Tibet and claim them as well. This is what exactly we need to do
I listened to this program quite eagerly as I wanted to understand how India would handle a war with China. Unfortunately, Sumeet is offering opinions (which is perfectly acceptable), but states them as facts. Unfortunately, many of his statements are just wrong. Just a few examples................ 5:30 - Displacement of 80 Mega Tonnes? That would be bigger than all the military ships in the world COMBINED. It is unlikely to reach even 80 Kilo Tonnes. This is probably a slip of the tongue except that the rest of this interview is filled with such errors. 6:00 - Not a single country has agreed to buy the Tejas as of May 2023. In 2015, Ecuador cancelled all deliveries of Dhruv helicopter. Just a reality check. Also, Tejas (which India developed with a lot of French help) has a number of foreign components. In fact, India cannot export the current version of Tejas as it has an ejection seat made in UK. 10:50 - Russia has informed India that future shipments of S-400 will be delayed. By the way, China already has already deployed the S-400 system. 12:30 - Su-MKI has a large radar cross-section. It is for this reason that it was not used in Balakot strikes. Also, the Su-MKIs did not engage the Pakistani aircraft (F-16s) in the subsequent air exchange as range of its R-77s were less than the AMRAAMs. Why would you send a MIG 21 to go up against an F-16? 13:05 - Ever since the first Gulf war, China has made a concerted effort to reduce the number of army personnel and be technology-centric. It does not really matter whether India has the largest standing army. 16:51 Akash has a range of 25 km, not 2000 km. A range of 25 km is useful only against rockets/shells. You would not need a missile with a range of 2000 km as a part of a missile shield. 17:40 The US designed and built the F-22 completely independently. So, it does not export the F-22 to any NATO country or even Israel. It will not allow the export of the F-22 engine to Tejas. The Tejas uses a much older GE engine. 18:10 JF-17 has refueling capability. To say otherwise is simply wrong. 18:40 China has a few dozen refueling tankers, not 2 18:45 JF-17 has a radar than has a range of 150 km 19:28 India exited the Su-57 in 2019. The engine, RCS, radar and stealth capabilities of the Su-57 were so inferior that India decided to leave the program 20:05 In 2019, India's Dhruv LCH performed so poorly that Ecuador cancelled the contract. According to Jane's (Indian military reports third ALH crash of 2023), a 3rd Indian ALH has crashed in 2023. 20:30 India's record with operating submarine has been mixed. India's INS Arihant, an SSBN leased from Russia submerged with a hatch open rendering it operationally useless for more than a year. This is about the stupidest blunder that a submarine can make. Indian military reports third ALH crash of 2023 An Indian Army Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) Advanced Light Helicopter (ALH) Dhruv helicopter has crashed....
What the hell is Sumit Peer talking about ? The submarine contract is nowhere close to be finalized,the MRFA has not been finalized, the LCA program is running with delays, out of 17 countries that have expressed interest in the LCA not one contract has been signed, there has been nothing done to replace the Mig29 , there is NO PLAN yet to replace the Jaguars which are quickly approaching retirement, India is still flying the 40 year old MIG21 , because HAL cannot produce the TEJAS fast enough. The MK1 is delayed, the MK2 is delayed, the AMCA is delayed . So what is Mr Peer talking about ? He should stop building castles in the air . He knows nothing about weapon systems and yet he is out here offering expertise. IAF is concerned if the aircrafts don’t come fast enough they will not be able to even maintain 30 squadrons . Does Mr Peer know how many combat aircrafts China has and how it has a dedicated rocket force ? Does Mr Peer know how mNy nuclear and conventional subs China has ? This is just ridiculous feel good commentary with no substance This is the equivalent of the Lahori Chooran that pakis sell Mr Peer talks about Indian Missiles which is fine , but he should also know that China has a very advanced air defense system Mr Peer is completely wrong about LCA engines. The engines used on LCA are GE F404 engines , the F22 raptor uses Pratt and Whitney PW5000 engines . The MK2 however is stated to used the GE414 engines which is used on the F18 Super Hornets The LCA NAVY is a texh demonstrator which has been rejected by the navy is a building block towards the TEDBF Talking about Dhanush , the army just has received 6 systems so in order to really make a dent it needs it in the thousands. JEEZ
The reason Gandhi is pro China because of his promise to CCP for giving BRI infrastructure of India to China. Adani is the thorn because he can do better without putting the nation like Pakistan. I.N.D.I.A must ask Rahul. - to make public 2008 agreement between Gandhi and CCP . Ask Rahul the 2008 agreement public!!! Rahul promised infra projects to China. As far as Adani and modi is there -Not happening till Modi is there. I am ready to bet 1 million dollar. Show me the agreement.
Shri Iyer is good at what he does with the exception of his Hindu/ Hindutva remarks about Indian US Congress people. As a U.S. citizen they & I have a first allegiance to the U.S. ( and iyer too- assuming he has US citizenship) however a large part of my heart is given to India where in the 50 years I was there, and as an Elec Eng worshipped at( as the great Nehru put it) the Public Sector lic Projects of India - Bhilai Steel Plant/ 25 KV Indian Railways Electrification & then Siemens India Projects all over India including Bengal Bihar Orissa Maharastra Bombay Poona etc- and I am ethnically a Goan Roman Catholic. So I resent his 2x Hindu Congressman - can be sure- remark Sydney Desouza I have the honor of getting along with all Indians-Hindus, Muslims, Parsis South Indians North Indians Bengalis etc
Very glad to hear this gentleman gddive an excellent overview of India’s Armaments & their capabilities- India can therefore be self reliant in the expected likely event of an invasion by China from the Tibetan Himalayas. This will happen shortly since China has come to the conclusion that it will NOT overtake the U.S. economically or militariLy So to show the world how powerful they are, they will use weaker India to “teach a lesson”. As a fallback India needs to enter a military pact with the U.S. for arming India “gratis” with latest weapons - within 2,years to counter Chinese attach. This is future Insurance for the U.S., because if India is subdued then Continental USA cities will then be bombed by China- something Americans are not used to. Sydney Desouza a Goan Indian American 50 years in India & 36 years in Georgia USA
After Devaluation in 1990 the international trade settlement was suggested by Basket of Four Currencies ie Dollar, Pound, DM, and Yen. Finance Minister was Dr. MN Singh. Now Indian Rupees becoming stronger than Dollar. The dependency on dollar has reduced. It is good for international business unless our export is increased.
Once again..Sumit Jee always fantastic and precise compared to abhijit liar mitra who only denigrates the military and very successful DRDO like all anti nationals..
What does Sumit Peer have to say on Pravin Sawhney warnings and near doomsday prediction for any China-India confrontation, particularly cyberwarfare and other futuristic weapons. How seriously does he take Pravin Sawhney?
India and the world need to call China about Tibet. Tibet was illegally occupied Tibet on ground of Suzerainty. After occupying Tibet China enslaved the Tibetans psychologically and even physically. We are watching the next level of enslavement in Xinziang. In that case India can also claim the same status over some of its neighbors. We have to assert that Tibet is an occupied territory.
in 1971,we stopped immediately after the pak forces surrendered ,, because there was tremondous pressure from Soviets and approaching 7th fleet , and in Kargil after the aggression was cleared, because of insistent pressure from Americans.
K3 missiles? It's the K4 and barely inducted and has a range of 3500km. A great weapon that should be canister mounted on trucks because of powered flight to the end with maneuvering ability and also better than ballistic missiles due to this capacity. Agni 5 cannot fit into Indian submarines. Tejas is a very limited jet due to limited range.
Sir I am not a big fan of You tube channel however Having seen a few PGurus I am impressed & have started watching same. Very informative , Sumit Peer has an encyclopedia of information
Shree Sumitji with his knowledge on our defense apparatus has changed me into an optimist on Indo china conflict! Thank you Shreeji for hosting him! Jai Hind!
At the outset, very good facts and analysis. This government deserves credit for our defence advances today. I do agree with Sumit ji for the most part. However, the contention that we can sustain a full blown war with China today without any help is tough to accept. One thing which China has and India does not is better economy and technology. China is number one in the world in AI. Well, if we progress the way we are doing today foe the next decade, we will have no cause to worry. The question is, Can we progress consistently? Time will tell. Nevertheless, three cheers for the wonderful episode.
I have a question for both of you. Why can there be a Quad like Military based organization between all those 17 countries which has border issue with China. India can sipply Brahmos to all these countries. Then start minor skirmishes on all these boundaries. Meep Chin busy and indulged in all these fronts. Decide among themselves and ad per strength of that coyntry and vulnurability of China on that front that country yo go zll out and take back tha disputed area from China and wven sone area of China. If China tries to attack that country in a fullfledged war all countries shokd open their birders and attach China and take back their territory from China.
Summer Sir, Sri Sir. We also need to work on infowar or propaganda war. We are nowhere close to Chinese. We need our young folks to get into Chinese households. I know it's gonna be difficult, with China, blocking all social media platforms, we still need to find a way.
Namashkar 🙏 I don't understand what is the proof actually what is the reality of the earth forces some most veteran army officers are there in a patriotic as for their old record this said their programs VB force are fully equipped with arsenal but now a days officer have not a high moral. Actually Bhutan is the great friend but first time hi includes China and in Bhutan China have made basis some official so report about doklam. Ladakh 26 points under control of China this is official report shared by the one army had in one of the meeting in the pmo. This is all in records aur anyone can check it. Is everything is symbolic? 🤔
Br peer and Sri Aiyer Ji can you people comment on the subjective behaviour of indian masses who are still voting the gaddars and looters of our motherland?
How is the new aircraft carrier vikrant?. The earlier aircraft carrier Ins viraat had so many issues that Russians çouldnt repair it satisfactorily. Ins vikrant has GE engines , but what about the functioning of other systems . R they working in tune with all other systems on the vikrant. ?.
I think if Indians play safe they don’t want to cross USA Come to second and stay there for long Corruption is not going away from any where 5 Indian congressmen is us only one that all Hindu can rely is krishnamuty
No wonder India does so badly in the military space. Even the analysis here is so poor. Really bad discussion and lacking the realism and strategy focus and specificity to get to a proper strategy.
I think China is moving big on AI, drone based and Cyber warfare ,biowarfare and any other new high tech war fare and not much worried about those planes and ships etc?
🙏 huge fan of Sumeet Sir...he is Amazing Encyclopedia of India. Even better than ''cjatGPT''...hats off..thank you guruji for inviting him...

Thanks once again for bringing Sri Sumeet Peer Ji on PGuru Channel...
Getting good confidence after listening to such information. Thanks to both of you. But only sad part is modi is not aggressive against corruption of political parties who looted India as he is with defence and external affairs, local infra development.
We need a million more Indians like Shri Sumit Ji ;))!!
British created security nightmare through division of India. After the Invision of Tibet China became ambitious and working to control south and southeast Asia by controlling the water of Tibet and trade of Indian and pacific ocean and beyond. India and Taiwan both are main obstacles. All countries should cooperate on security and develop together like EU and join QUAD-Asian NATO against Chinese ambition to reduce defense budget.
Such information should be available in Hindi as many of the Indians understand Hindi language.
Ever Sumit Ji go lot of people listen . Thank you very much bring such respected guest like Sumit Ji .
Sumit-ji, Iyer-val, thank you.
Thank you very much Shree Iyer Ji , Sumit ji for this wonderful video. Pls Keep going like this

Sumitjee is a real analyst of world affairs specially related to India .
You failed to mention India's progress on directed energy weapons, which would be game changer. Laser tests have previously been carried out by the DRDO.
An incredibly good analysis.

They're called Omnibus bills.
No mention of the drones!

4. US army aviation core (4397 airc4aft with tvr of 112.6)
5. US Marine core (1211 aircraft with tvr 85.3)
6. Indian airforce (1645 aircraft with tvr of 69.4)

I agree
We need to take our INDIAN Military preparedness to the next level. To thwart the CHINESE attacks. ❤️🇮🇳🪔
Why is scoop gopalan not mentioning anything about satyapal mallik and pulwama
Ro Khanna lied about his father vote. Opportunist can be with be your side in some issues. That does not mean he is gonna work for India.
If u want your discussions to reach up to more people, start it in hindi
We all should tweet that Rahul Gandhi was about to hand over india to China by 2030 as per his agreement with China.....
But do we really know Chinese capabilities? They also won't reveal the military secrets to public, right?
1:22 India goes into Chinese territory on a regular basis as it's a disputed border. We patrol to the limit of our perception which is as often as happens the other way. What we don't do is squat there like when they come into our area which is the limit of their perception.

America is using India against China now ( Use and throw policy of USA)
5:42 there is as yet no press release from the CCS about Rafale-M. Just leaks and articles with the word 'likely'
39:27 Where does it say INR is the fourth most circulated currency in the world? the only source I could find about this comes from the BIS and it has INR at 15th place and China at 7th according to Oct '22 which is the latest data.

I am a big fan of Sumit jee, as he is having tremendous knowledge of world affairs..
He is Amazing, his knowledge is unbeatable. Thankyou Sree Sir
I think india can handle china on its own as china only using ancient weapons like spears, rods, nail studded rods, stones and what not to fight indians.
In the recent tawang clash, indians used tree branches to chase away chinese troops.
P gurus specialty is introducing different personalities related to different fields, all adorable to their deep knowledge. Thx for this
Don't spread misinformation. Sukhoi is not a stealth aircraft that India has. After the 12th min check the clip.
We must build more futuristic technology, war techniques. we need to bring young smart minds to develop them.
I am fan of Sumeet. 🎉
That’s a brand of mixer grinder. I think you meant to say Sumit😉
Surprised to see Sri Iyer supporting RO ??? Really … all he has done is lip service … like his party … you want the entire to become Calf ???
MR.SUMIT PEER has given such a lot of reassuring information. I think we need more such knowledgeable people to come on air, to educate us about our capacities and the good work done by the our govt. Hats off to him.
What about the Norther Indian
@@2005Navina what abt northern indian ? Could u b more specific with that question ? 😬😬
@@2005Navina Talent does not havenorth or south.
India is a developing nation.
Not interested in derailing our economy.
India will avoid friction with China.
But if China tries to be aggressive with India , India won't tolerate it and fight back with China and Pakistan.
Let’s not get too Complacent and excited Sumit ….just by volume China is big both in terms of Economy and Military Power

Why did you have to bring the whole ro Khanna story here ! You could have done a separate monologue some other time about your intercourse with ro Khanna, isn't it sree ?
Just before I am listening to it, my answer is yes, we can handle China on our own…. China has lot to loose we have less.
Listening to Sumitji gives such positive feelings 👏👏

As India grows economically and feels more secure at home, the responses of India will be more matured and less opinionated. All said and done, America is a powerhouse of ideas and testing ground of hard nosed ideologies. Even today India looks at America and Europe dispassionately with Indian heart and brain.

Incredible conversation ......🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
QUAD is of no use to India.. Quad me India ke alawa ek fattu aur 2 uske chammach hai.. Indochina war me fattu bhag jayega aur uske chammach uske peechhe.
India and Indians can handle China and Pakistan together alongwith indirect support of Russia and India's friend countries..
Our Defense Exports last year didn’t even get us into the top 25
We should never be afraid of Chinese, that is our defence. Why fof so long those parties were teaching us of to be afraid of these people. They are coward and deceptive only nothing ekse. We should be more offensive and should entet their territory and rename parts of Tibet and claim them as well. This is what exactly we need to do
America is using India against China now ( Use and throw policy of USA)
Fantastic video. Sumeet ji fantastic one. We might cross america during 2047 mostly..
Sumeet Peer excellent summary. Must compliment you for your knowledge of Defence Equipment Inventory, Terrain and historical events. Keep it up....
I listened to this program quite eagerly as I wanted to understand how India would handle a war with China. Unfortunately, Sumeet is offering opinions (which is perfectly acceptable), but states them as facts. Unfortunately, many of his statements are just wrong.
Just a few examples................
5:30 - Displacement of 80 Mega Tonnes? That would be bigger than all the military ships in the world COMBINED. It is unlikely to reach even 80 Kilo Tonnes. This is probably a slip of the tongue except that the rest of this interview is filled with such errors.

Also, Tejas (which India developed with a lot of French help) has a number of foreign components. In fact, India cannot export the current version of Tejas as it has an ejection seat made in UK.
10:50 - Russia has informed India that future shipments of S-400 will be delayed. By the way, China already has already deployed the S-400 system.
12:30 - Su-MKI has a large radar cross-section. It is for this reason that it was not used in Balakot strikes. Also, the Su-MKIs did not engage the Pakistani aircraft (F-16s) in the subsequent air exchange as range of its R-77s were less than the AMRAAMs. Why would you send a MIG 21 to go up against an F-16?
13:05 - Ever since the first Gulf war, China has made a concerted effort to reduce the number of army personnel and be technology-centric. It does not really matter whether India has the largest standing army.
16:51 Akash has a range of 25 km, not 2000 km. A range of 25 km is useful only against rockets/shells. You would not need a missile with a range of 2000 km as a part of a missile shield.
17:40 The US designed and built the F-22 completely independently. So, it does not export the F-22 to any NATO country or even Israel. It will not allow the export of the F-22 engine to Tejas. The Tejas uses a much older GE engine.
18:10 JF-17 has refueling capability. To say otherwise is simply wrong.
18:40 China has a few dozen refueling tankers, not 2
18:45 JF-17 has a radar than has a range of 150 km
19:28 India exited the Su-57 in 2019. The engine, RCS, radar and stealth capabilities of the Su-57 were so inferior that India decided to leave the program
20:05 In 2019, India's Dhruv LCH performed so poorly that Ecuador cancelled the contract. According to Jane's (Indian military reports third ALH crash of 2023), a 3rd Indian ALH has crashed in 2023.
20:30 India's record with operating submarine has been mixed. India's INS Arihant, an SSBN leased from Russia submerged with a hatch open rendering it operationally useless for more than a year. This is about the stupidest blunder that a submarine can make.
Indian military reports third ALH crash of 2023
An Indian Army Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) Advanced Light Helicopter (ALH) Dhruv helicopter has crashed....
What the hell is Sumit Peer talking about ? The submarine contract is nowhere close to be finalized,the MRFA has not been finalized, the LCA program is running with delays, out of 17 countries that have expressed interest in the LCA not one contract has been signed, there has been nothing done to replace the Mig29 , there is NO PLAN yet to replace the Jaguars which are quickly approaching retirement, India is still flying the 40 year old MIG21 , because HAL cannot produce the TEJAS fast enough. The MK1 is delayed, the MK2 is delayed, the AMCA is delayed . So what is Mr Peer talking about ? He should stop building castles in the air . He knows nothing about weapon systems and yet he is out here offering expertise.
IAF is concerned if the aircrafts don’t come fast enough they will not be able to even maintain 30 squadrons . Does Mr Peer know how many combat aircrafts China has and how it has a dedicated rocket force ? Does Mr Peer know how mNy nuclear and conventional subs China has ? This is just ridiculous feel good commentary with no substance
This is the equivalent of the Lahori Chooran that pakis sell
Mr Peer talks about Indian Missiles which is fine , but he should also know that China has a very advanced air defense system
Mr Peer is completely wrong about LCA engines. The engines used on LCA are GE F404 engines , the F22 raptor uses Pratt and Whitney PW5000 engines .
The MK2 however is stated to used the GE414 engines which is used on the F18 Super Hornets
The LCA NAVY is a texh demonstrator which has been rejected by the navy is a building block towards the TEDBF
Talking about Dhanush , the army just has received 6 systems so in order to really make a dent it needs it in the thousands.
JEEZ
No India cannot fight CCP and its backing elements without QUAD. Salute to all the jhumlas of BJP.
The reason Gandhi is pro China because of his promise to CCP for giving BRI infrastructure of India to China. Adani is the thorn because he can do better without putting the nation like Pakistan. I.N.D.I.A must ask Rahul. - to make public 2008 agreement between Gandhi and CCP . Ask Rahul the 2008 agreement public!!! Rahul promised infra projects to China. As far as Adani and modi is there -Not happening till Modi is there. I am ready to bet 1 million dollar. Show me the agreement.
This was such a session to enhance confidence of the Indian Citizen at this crucial juncture.
Shri Iyer is good at what he does with the exception of his Hindu/ Hindutva remarks about Indian US Congress people. As a U.S. citizen they & I have a first allegiance to the U.S. ( and iyer too- assuming he has US citizenship) however a large part of my heart is given to India where in the 50 years I was there, and as an Elec Eng worshipped at( as the great Nehru put it) the Public Sector lic Projects of India - Bhilai Steel Plant/ 25 KV Indian Railways Electrification & then Siemens India Projects all over India including Bengal Bihar Orissa Maharastra Bombay Poona etc- and I am ethnically a Goan Roman Catholic. So I resent his 2x Hindu Congressman - can be sure- remark

I have the honor of getting along with all Indians-Hindus, Muslims, Parsis South Indians North Indians Bengalis etc
Sri ji is singing too many praises for Mr Khanna.. Hmm that really puts PGuru’s credibility unfetter scanner. Skeptical at the moment!
Very glad to hear this gentleman gddive an excellent overview of India’s Armaments & their capabilities- India can therefore be self reliant in the expected likely event of an invasion by China from the Tibetan Himalayas. This will happen shortly since China has come to the conclusion that it will NOT overtake the U.S. economically or militariLy
So to show the world how powerful they are, they will use weaker India to “teach a lesson”. As a fallback India needs to enter a military pact with the U.S. for arming India “gratis” with latest weapons - within 2,years to counter Chinese attach. This is future Insurance for the U.S., because if India is subdued then Continental USA cities will then be bombed by China- something Americans are not used to.

After Devaluation in 1990 the international trade settlement was suggested by Basket of Four Currencies ie Dollar, Pound, DM, and Yen. Finance Minister was Dr. MN Singh. Now Indian Rupees becoming stronger than Dollar. The dependency on dollar has reduced. It is good for international business unless our export is increased.
Once again..Sumit Jee always fantastic and precise compared to abhijit liar mitra who only denigrates the military and very successful DRDO like all anti nationals..
I always love listening to Sumeet Ji - He is incredible and incisive ANALYST-Jai Hind
What does Sumit Peer have to say on Pravin Sawhney warnings and near doomsday prediction for any China-India confrontation, particularly cyberwarfare and other futuristic weapons. How seriously does he take Pravin Sawhney?
India and the world need to call China about Tibet.
Tibet was illegally occupied Tibet on ground of Suzerainty. After occupying Tibet China enslaved the Tibetans psychologically and even physically. We are watching the next level of enslavement in Xinziang.
In that case India can also claim the same status over some of its neighbors.
We have to assert that Tibet is an occupied territory.
in 1971,we stopped immediately after the pak forces surrendered ,, because there was tremondous pressure from Soviets and approaching 7th fleet , and in Kargil after the aggression was cleared, because of insistent pressure from Americans.
Oh yes …. and Russia (India’s Best friend) won’t say a word against China …. Mark my word.
K3 missiles? It's the K4 and barely inducted and has a range of 3500km. A great weapon that should be canister mounted on trucks because of powered flight to the end with maneuvering ability and also better than ballistic missiles due to this capacity. Agni 5 cannot fit into Indian submarines. Tejas is a very limited jet due to limited range.
Sir I am not a big fan of You tube channel however Having seen a few PGurus I am impressed & have started watching same. Very informative , Sumit Peer has an encyclopedia of information
Rahul was taking Chanda from China. How could they have strengthen the border infra
Shree Sumitji with his knowledge on our defense apparatus has changed me into an optimist on Indo china conflict! Thank you Shreeji for hosting him! Jai Hind!
India needs highly qualified book readers to verify the new private education institutions.
At the outset, very good facts and analysis. This government deserves credit for our defence advances today. I do agree with Sumit ji for the most part. However, the contention that we can sustain a full blown war with China today without any help is tough to accept. One thing which China has and India does not is better economy and technology. China is number one in the world in AI. Well, if we progress the way we are doing today foe the next decade, we will have no cause to worry. The question is, Can we progress consistently? Time will tell. Nevertheless, three cheers for the wonderful episode.
I have a question for both of you.
Why can there be a Quad like Military based organization between all those 17 countries which has border issue with China.
India can sipply Brahmos to all these countries.
Then start minor skirmishes on all these boundaries.
Meep Chin busy and indulged in all these fronts.
Decide among themselves and ad per strength of that coyntry and vulnurability of China on that front that country yo go zll out and take back tha disputed area from China and wven sone area of China. If China tries to attack that country in a fullfledged war all countries shokd open their birders and attach China and take back their territory from China.
Summer Sir, Sri Sir. We also need to work on infowar or propaganda war. We are nowhere close to Chinese. We need our young folks to get into Chinese households. I know it's gonna be difficult, with China, blocking all social media platforms, we still need to find a way.
Namashkar 🙏 I don't understand what is the proof actually what is the reality of the earth forces some most veteran army officers are there in a patriotic as for their old record this said their programs VB force are fully equipped with arsenal but now a days officer have not a high moral. Actually Bhutan is the great friend but first time hi includes China and in Bhutan China have made basis some official so report about doklam. Ladakh 26 points under control of China this is official report shared by the one army had in one of the meeting in the pmo. This is all in records aur anyone can check it. Is everything is symbolic? 🤔
Br peer and Sri Aiyer Ji can you people comment on the subjective behaviour of indian masses who are still voting the gaddars and looters of our motherland?
INDIA should make QUAD a military alliance and include a NATO like article 5 in it.
How is the new aircraft carrier vikrant?. The earlier aircraft carrier
Ins viraat had so many issues that Russians çouldnt repair it satisfactorily. Ins vikrant has GE engines , but what about the functioning of other systems . R they working in tune with all other systems on the vikrant. ?.
I think if Indians play safe they don’t want to cross USA
Come to second and stay there for long
Corruption is not going away from any where
5 Indian congressmen is us only one that all Hindu can rely is krishnamuty
No wonder India does so badly in the military space. Even the analysis here is so poor. Really bad discussion and lacking the realism and strategy focus and specificity to get to a proper strategy.
Sri Iyer, what're the chances of an Indian, that too a South Indian, entering the White House in 2024?
I think China is moving big on AI, drone based and Cyber warfare ,biowarfare and any other new high tech war fare and not much worried about those planes and ships etc?
