HISAR is much more sophisticated with multi mission radar and long range sensors. The problem is LTTE moved their arti from place to place. This will probably change during longer confrontations. Right now its not the best time for us to hit such targets.Defencewirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06358848115700373983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5899907675904775235.post-20284877350460977202007-11-05T16:57:00.000+05:302007-11-05T16:57:00.000+05:30http://www.indiadaily.com/editorial/18586.aspWho k...http://www.indiadaily.com/editorial/18586.asp<BR/><BR/>Who knows, India gave green light to bomb TC, then treat the injured after that...Just a thought...<BR/><BR/><B><BR/>Sri Lanka Government is consulting with the Indian counterpart at the highest level before crushing the tiger rebels. <BR/><BR/>Sri Lanka may use precision radar guided missile to target the Tiger rebels</B>tangarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07225991509353724974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5899907675904775235.post-12316752200646511292007-11-05T16:49:00.000+05:302007-11-05T16:49:00.000+05:30Noltte=Peace,You got a very valid point there...Ho...Noltte=Peace,<BR/><BR/>You got a very valid point there...<BR/><BR/>Hope our boys are evaluating everything...tangarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07225991509353724974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5899907675904775235.post-35766449044346668212007-11-05T16:38:00.000+05:302007-11-05T16:38:00.000+05:30rifardmy bad.

The MBBRL should be able to target at least 1/4 of an acre block. Therefore even moving target should not be much of an issue. Some coordination between the troops, HISAR and the MBBRL is all that is required.Jambudipahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09894590544311665214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5899907675904775235.post-5220932983003114782007-11-05T09:10:00.000+05:302007-11-05T09:10:00.000+05:30Besides I thought HISAR was still in for service? ...Besides I thought HISAR was still in for service?
