I Surrender..........

I give up!!!!!

After struggling with sleep for two hours or so, I can’t fight anymore. I don’t want to even try to sleep now.I give up.....Now-a-days sleep don't come to me easily.Just take me, because I give up.

You win, I lose.I am guilty. Punish me.
I am guilty of loving you. I am guilty of fighting it. I am guilty of suppressing.

I miss you... terribly.

It's tough to live with this feeling....and itz getting tougher day by day....hour by hour....moment by moment.


Words ache.....my fingers tremble and my mind is befuddled. Please put some sense into me...plz god!!!!

I keep on falling for the glitters in search of the gold. No matter how much I deny it, the truth is that you are the gold. This gold is right in front of me yet it is so far away. I can feel you; I cannot touch you....cannot hold you..... cannot embrace you..........and i cannot stop myself loving you.… and I don’t want to fight it anymore.I give up.

I look up to you for answers... for you have all the answers. You always had my answers. Iam asking you....Why me!!! why????


Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can pierce you; hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness,turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love....but....but i cannot stop loving you.....

It's The CHRISTMASSSSY FEELING !!!

Christmas is knocking the doors...and the season's still pathetic in Delhi...i thought temperature will drop considerably...itz mid-december ..damn it!

I wonder what Christmas means to all of us. Honestly, I mean, besides Jesus what else can we think .Ofcourse people have different personalities so comes different set of likings n dis likings.What do you think is the best part of Christmas?For me, it's not in going crazy shopping for friends and family… it's not really in decorating Christmas trees or cooking delicious food or entertaining guests..... It's in the coziness of season. It's in the happy faces. It's in the pretty bright colours...it's in the winter.I especially love singing carols during this time of the year… dancing to the tunes of old Christmas classics. All of those songs bringing back good memories… heart-warming memories.Remember “Driving Home for Christmas?” I used to listen this song almost every time I used to travel home after my odd sems.I have some of my happiest moments with Jingle Bells. Signing it with friends at the top of my voice sometimes sitting in the Cafe Coffee Day on JM Road at 2am.Holiday season brings so many goodies. I love the smiles I get from all over. The comforting touches. The smell of burning wood. The text messages and phone calls from friends around the country… I know there are Angels Among Us.…and then Christmas is about romancing. The cozy coffee dates.Sipping hot mocha and spreading hot cocoa on unusually big muffins.... The holding hands and kissing under the mistletoe… those endless late night phone calls. Signing “Let it be so cold!” ....sitting by the fire and comforting each other. and All I Want For Christmas Is You.Of course, this time of the year is about memories. Last Christmas I Gave You My Heart… Need I say more? :-). It also about renewing my faith on life....And for me - Love is Life...and Life is God. So that's my Christmas.So, people have a Jolly Merry Christmas Christmas!!

Mom's Kitchen

Happy September to u all,

I just booked my airtickets for Calcutta.Finally after 6 long years i will be celebrating sarodiya utsav with my family.The month of october is packed with festivals and like all, the custom of giving and recieving gifts are important with bengalis.These days all kinds of wierd ideas are coming into my mind.I am always bad at giving gifts or should i say selecting "appropriate" gifts.And the toughest of all is giving gift to mom.Now my mom is kinda camera shy person.But she's an awesome cook and extremely passionate about it.Sometimes i feel she should have hosted Travel & Living's Hell's Kitchen show instead of Gordon Ramsey. I feel proud when people discuss my mom's cooking or they try those dishes back in their home.Well i think cooking came to me through my mom.I also like cooking and like her my philosophy about cooking is that cooking can be made easy through the use of the right cooking tools and a few tabletop necessities.But top of all, as she says, cooking is not only playing with flavours instead it's more about playing with senses.Mom's very demanding as far as cooking and kitchen is concerned.She always complains that she doesn't have a good kitchen.Dad, bhai and me never actually understood why exactly she's complaining.After all 15ft/ 8ft size kitchen is not at all a small kitchen.But as the days passed and i developed a interest in cooking i came to realise that it's more about utilities and design than the area of a kitchen.Well now i understand that in order to attain certain level of culinary perfection you have to have a feeling and most importantly - "A Good Kitchen". After a long thinking i and dad decided to invest some of our savings into "mom's kitchen".Now that would be her "pujo gift". Like an expert invester i , dad and bhai are expecting mouth watering delicacies.Com'on we are investing our hard earned money into that...we have the right to get the return.. But the deal came with a condition, since my dad and bro are totally numb in this perrticular subject, i had to decide what all needs to be changed or modified in the kitchen.That of course has to be affirmed and passed by home minister of our home- My mom.And then it started a vicious cyle of "selection and rejection" .I was crawling all over the internet and searching local book shop to get manuals on kitchen designing.I forwarded few to my mom and according to me they were classy...few designs from scandinavian kitchen...few ideas from hell's kitchen show...few suggestions from local restuarants.But they all were rejected.
Few days ago she sent me a catalog for a kitchen design and I immediately liked it. This kitchen goes more under the headings of "Less is more" , "highly personal", More "showcase", less "high end catalog". And, that said, it's a viable look. Glam meets function meets texture. There was no other image of the working part of the kitchen.But i thought, WOW! and I under-estimated my mom.
I like the simplicity of elements, but what I like more is the color white showin truth and strength, yet, restraint. I don't need any more evidence to prove that "less is more". Fewer, larger, shapes and forms will enlarge a space as opposed to many, smaller, pieces, door sizes, accessories, etc. This is not a good vs. bad evaluation, simply an observation and another way to design a kitchen within a tight budget. The look is simple and elegant, so that the individual pieces say something meaningful yet are linked together in other ways, perhaps in color or tone, if not style.
Here, my eye sees a variety of styles:


utility (Our Old Godrej refrigerator n the new LG grill)
rustic (Our Jabalpuria dark wood Furnitures)
glamour (re-arranged polished compartments n new white stone sink)
something hip/fun (Wrought iron chairs n dining table)
elegance/sophistication yet modern (paint on wall)
modern/sleek yet textural ( the old n in expensive sunmica floor)
contrast (floor and walls)


There are common threads among these elements which tie one disparate piece to another and it's fun looking for them. I'm actually pretty crazy about this kitchen, although I'd probably want to change the prints to something A BIT more personal....like few family photo frames. But we indians use lot of oil n spices in kitchen..Hope the electric chimney will do itz job and that the frames doesn't turn black ..Would like to remove those chiars and the dining table. I think wrought iron furniture would be a classy yet solid replacement.Have to look at the budget also.
One question that comes to mind is, what came first, or simultaneously? Was the flooring color picked first, knowing that those chairs would be used, which relate to the walls in terms of tone? Was the big picture seen from the start, or were pieces brought in, to build on the previous concept. How were the layers developed? It' also refreshing to see the use of large carpets in kitchen.We indians hardly use carpets in kitchen, so it would be a nice new experiment.
What do you think??

Few Single Men

I am writing after a long time.The last time I “compelled” myself to write something on the blog was on my b’day….Itz almost 1 month now.But again I don’t get time these days.Each day I end up spending 9-12 hrs on my work desk staring at my system and another 3-4 hrs in company car.I start the journey from one state, I cross another state and reach office which is in a third state. Sometimes this journey becomes too long…especially when I am the only employee coming from noida. So it’s always a “crispy” news if transport department adjusts some “interesting persona” in my car. For last few weeks one of my superior’s accompanying me on my journey to office and back. We talk a lot and about strange issues. One of the strangest was about singlehood. Somehow she thinks that being single is somewhat rude…and with obvious reasons I retaliated coz I don’t want to be labelled as “Another New Rude Recruit” throughout my office premises. Although, people have already started talking about my attitude. But I can live with that. Wise people know that there are differences between being rude and having an upbeat attitude. Now coming back to square one- Is being single = Being Rude. I never gave it a dedicated thought but then I think that being single is not such a bad thing actually. Especially if all your friends and siblings are happily hitched to the sides of spouses/lovers and all you have to boast of is your dog. This is not to say that having a dog is a bad thing. Dogs are definitely God's greatest creations after women. But that is beside the point. And moreover I was bit skeptical about keeping a pet…but then also, well, recently bought a pair of goldfish. The truth is, if you do have a girlfriend, well, good for you. Try holding on to her for as long as you can. Now I am assuming that you are absolutely in “love” with her. But if you don't, you might consider yourself not really too unlucky after all. For, being single is not the worst thing in the world. In fact, its benefits rather outweigh its downsides.Apart from the limitless freedom that it entails (provided, of course, you're not tied down by the apron strings of your loving mom), there are also other such things as an open market and the life of adventure, if you know what I mean (and don't let your imagination run too far for its own good).But you know trying out everything is another feather in cap.So iam totally leaving this on to your imagination..But if you want to get into more specifics, here they are:



1. Freedom of movement. There is nothing a single man enjoys more than this. For, what can beat the pleasure of hopping onto your bike at 11 p.m. and going for a long ride into the dark unknown, to dwell on the joys and sorrows of singleness? (okay, it actually gets better than this).



2. Nobody questions your late hours or your disappearances for long intervals of time. Your disappearances might be either due to some “inane programme” or even a call from office to solve a “serious technical issue” that you wanted to attend (without the danger of expanding your mind) or again to ride off into the night to mull over the cruelties of life. Or you may choose to party late into the night with a few well-chosen friends and get up late the next day only to be forced to take off from work due to the hangover. This is not necessarily a good thing, for all those people who sleep with their job.



3. Your earnings don't have to be split two-ways. So apart from the tax you give the government, you still get to blow up your pay-check on other trivial pursuits (which you actually never dared to do during your college times), and no questions asked – except, of course, from the district court magistrate the next morning if you get yourself locked up. But that will be your own fault.



4. You can spend your private moments at home blasting music and singing at the top of your lungs into a hairbrush, with the shutters down and the dog scurrying for cover under the nearest bed. Hmm.. again the mention of dog…I think I have to consider this…Bringing in a new pet-dog-perhaps.



5. You don't have to be in bed by midnight every day, only to wake up again when you've just dropped off, at 1 a.m. when the baby brings the roof down. Conversely, if you're unmarried and not living-in, you don't have to stay awake till 2 a.m. on the phone just because your girlfriend at the other end can't get sleep and needs to talk about the exciting happenings of the previous day (for some strange reason, I always felt that they're always most exciting at 2 a.m.).



6. You don't have to spend endless hours shopping for stuff that'll never make a difference to your life (conversely, if you do indulge her, she might indulge you too later on).



7. You don't have to be constantly reminded about things you forgot to do. When you do remember them, however, it might be too late. But that's another matter.



8. You can stay back late at work( which I always do) and not be blamed for it, even if you were actually working.



9. You can pick your nose or eat stuff off the table, and no one will rap your knuckles .



10. You can be yourself... for as long as you want.







All these things notwithstanding, you still might consider wanting to hitch up some day. Because, of all of God's creations, there's no one quite like the woman. And I confess that!

Let's See Jesus

Adoration is an intense admiration that lifts us in reverence to worship and to the expression of that worship in various outward acts. It includes both the inward attitudes of the heart and the physical expression of those feelings.
Adoration involves a person’s whole being. The mind comprehends the love and grace of God.. the will sanctions what the mind understands and yearns to appropriate the revelation of God in Christ Jesus.... the emotions are stirred to their maximum intensity in responding to the unearthly delight, unspeakable joy and unsurpassed peace.
Adoration inspires love and devotion so intense that it surpasses our understanding. Because words alone are usually impotent when it comes to expressing such depth of response, we are often forced to express adoration with song or physical activity—spontaneous or in liturgical form.
Adoration is far too personal to be a congregational action, although many persons sometimes respond in adoration to God under the same stimuli and at the same time. On other occasions, what stimulates one person to adoration will barely move another person to praise.
When concentrating on the benefits of God’s blessings we seldom rise beyond the level of praise.Worshipers are people who engage in adoration—who have learned to respond to the love of God, and they find it relatively easy to pour out their love before the Lord. Adoration is merely a highly refined way of receiving God’s love and passing it back with intense feeling and devotion. It’s an exciting love relationship. We are loved, and He has become our Beloved.
—Judson Cornwallo
Lord, draw me into Your inner chambers so that I can pour my love on You with abandon.Judson Cornwall, The Secret of Personal Prayer (1988), 184–185

Entanglement OF Memoirs

It's my off day today but iam unable to sleep.I have been working countinously like a machine for last 1 month without any breaks...Can you believe that ....Today's my off day but i am not able to sleep.I was awake through out the night.I am very tired but M not able to sleep or is it like i don't want to sleep.So i decided to actually get down from the bed and make some coffee and moroco for myself.I started my laptop and wondered what exactly is m thinkin.Few flashes of memoirs were actually buzzing me. I opened the balcony door and walla..itz raining..... Memoirs...Remembrances...raining..hmm...Interesting...I thought why not write something on blog. Blogging has always helped me.It has helped when remebrance and emotions try to choke me.Well i agree that i run from emotions.But it's not like i have never felt any emotion. But sometimes you just cannot allow urself to become emotional...College is over and to be honest i was never so much attached to my college, but strangely, sometimes i miss it. Sometimes i think why can't we develop some technology which can erase memoirs from our mind.That makes me remember that Ben Affleck starrer flick called "Pay Check"...You know m most afraid of those remembrances and emotions that bring Ma mind and heart on a war front..I see a faceless face...well not exactly faceless....but i would like to refer it that way becoz it originates from my remebrances and emotions.Ther’s no definite description to it but I know that it’s there.And i never understand why this face comes in front of me everytime. A remembrance which has a strong emotion attached to it. It dwells my mind through out the day..through out the night...In work..... in dreams....almost all the times.I close my eyes and try to obliterate all my thoughts...all my worries and try to reach the furthest points of serenity. But allas i cannot escape this remembrance.It comes in flashes and makes me soo restless that its impossible for me to concentrate properly on my work.My heart enjoys it but my mind dislikes it..itz a war which occurs everytime..day and night.Though iam totally upset about continous pop up of these remembrances but i also love it..That sounds contradictory and strange but that's what happening to me...I try to obliterate it and everytime i think i have send it into grave but then i feel that it would be much more difficult for me to live without it...Sometimes life gives u options like .."Worse" and "Worst" and u r compelled to make a choice. Where will u go.. Ofcourse u will choose the "Worse".....There are few pieces of you which are hard to understand-even by you ,forget others. Imagine the situation when u are sure that ur friends and near-dear ones will not understand those strange entangled feelings. U have ur hands tied down by your own ethics and rules...and u decide to put your head on sacrifice altar ..u decide to suffer and go through the black cloud..By the time u will reach the end of the clouds u will be able to see a bigger picture.I don know wat u people felt or used to feel in these situations but i felt that i can convert these remembrances to my strength and inspiration.These are short remembrances but they are undoubtly strong.It can shake me from inside and it's not strange, everyone has got these type of remembrances...Parents..Brothers..sisters..Girlfriend...a small instance of love or hatred....it can be anything....anything u can possibly think of.Life's worse with these rembrances but life is worst without them.So why not extend the hand of friendship towards them.

For your Eyes Only......

Really liked this pic.The color composition is awesome.The model..her pose ,expression.. the setting are perfect. The shot was almost flawless although I think that the photographer tried to do some “extras” on the pic ...look at the top portion....seems like the water-paint effect of photoshop. The focusing is just perfect comparing the water in the front and the water at the back. But I think the edges are unusually diluted.

I did like to have a original print of this pic.
Cheers to the photographer...Nice Job!!!

M-MRCA Deal: JAS-39 Gripen

The last contender of the competition is JAS-39 Gripen (Saab, Sweden; marketed by Britain’s BAE).
The Gripen is a true 4th+ generation lightweight fighter and significantly more capable than category competitors like the F-16 and Mirage 2000, though the MiG-35 may give it a run for the money because of the Zhuk AESA radar and extreme maneuverability and agility.Grippen electronic suite is higly complex and effective.In the last Red flag exercise Gripen surprised Red force aircrafts with the electronic suite. Other strengths include a wide choice of integrated weapons and pods; reasonable purchase cost; the fact that it has also been designed for exceptional cost of ownership; and the ability operate from roads instead of runways if necessary. It has colour cockpit displays, an On-Board Oxygen Generation System (OBOGS) and in-flight refuelling capability. The electronic suite contains Ericsson PS-05 long-range multi-purpose pulse Doppler radar which has air-to air operating modes covering long-range search, multi-target track-while-scan, multiple priority target tracking, air combat quick search modes, raid assessment and Beyond Visual Range (BVR) missile mid-course updates.The air-to-surface modes include long-range search/target identification, multiple priority target tracking, high-resolution, real beam mapping, air-to-surface ranging and Doppler Beam Sharpening (DBS).The aircraft is equipped with a Forward-Looking Infrared (FLIR) sensor and will have the Saab IR-Otis Infrared Search and Track system (IRST). The JAS-39’s drawbacks include its short range; the fact it’s a new aircraft type for the IAF; and a low volume of international orders to date that raises questions about the platform’s ability to modernize over the next 30-40 years. The fact that it is build by a country which does not have considerable air combat experience is also making it hard to pitch against giants like Lockheed, Boeing, Dassault and MiG.
As an interesting side note, the JAS-39 A-D models’ use of a modified GE F404 engine indicates that it could be modifiable to use India’s Kaveri engine. After all, the Tejas LCA will also use F404 engines until Kaveri is ready as a substitute, if indeed it ever is. The next-generation Gripen Demo model Saab is now offering prospective customers uses the GE F414G engine as its base, however, and is likely to need a higher level of engine performance than the existing Kaveri project can deliver. Gripen Demo also begins to address the aircraft’s range limitations, and would include an AESA radar among its other enhancements.
With respect to industrial offsets, Saab usually handles industrial offsets via its automotive group, which could represent either a difficulty or a market opportunity for the company. The Gripen’s acceptance carries no spin-off geopolitical benefits, however, and that last weakness may prove to be the plane’s most critical hindrance in this competition.

M-MRCA Deal: F-16IN

The fifth contender for this competition is not a new aircraft but will emerge in a different form.
Presumably, Lockheed’s “Block 70” or to be specific F-60IN offering would be an upgraded version of the F-16E Block 60 “Desert Falcon” currently serving with the UAE.In addition to that F-16IN will also incorporate supercruise abilities.The exact technical details of F-16IN are still in the hands of Lockheed and IAF, so I will try to explain IN version with the help of Desert Falcon’s configurations. Strengths include the widest multi-role capability among lightweight fighters; its AN/APG-80 AESA radar; the addition of integrated IRST capability; the widest choice of proven avionics and weapon systems; a long record of proven service so all issues are known; and widespread compatibility with potential allies in Asia and the Middle East who also fly F-16s. The combination of an AESA radar on a less expensive platform is also good news for cruise missile defense efforts, if that’s considered a priority. The F-16 Block 60, also known as the Desert Falcon (and F-16E/F in some circles), is the most advanced F-16 ever produced. An internal, forward-looking infrared navigation sensor mounted as a ball turret on the upper left nose distinguishes the Block 60 from previous F-16s. Other distinguishing external characteristics include a targeting pod with faceted windows, no pitot tube, strip lighting on the wings and vertical tail, an air scoop on the forward right tail root, a small exhaust on the forward left tail root, and two other exhaust ports—one on either side of the lower rear portion of the engine inlet. Both single- and two-seat aircraft carry the conformal fuel tanks.These external differences don’t detract from the F-16’s renowned aerodynamic performance. The increased thrust GE-132 engine helps compensate for the increase in weight and payload over the basic F-16. Internal differences, on the other hand, add up to a huge improvement in capability over previous-generation F-16s and place the Block 60 at the leading edge of fourth-generation fighters.These internal differences are most apparent in the cockpit, which is dominated by three large five- by seven-inch color multifunction displays. Onboard computers collect and process information from the various sensors and off-aircraft sources and transmit the results to the pilot in straightforward color graphics. The all-glass cockpit features hands-on throttle and sidestick switch controls, a color moving map, picture-in-picture digital display technology, night vision goggle-compatible lighting, and a standard head-up display.The Desert Falcon has many automated modes, including autopilot, auto-throttle, and an automatic ground collision avoidance system. The electronic warfare system, produced by Northrop Grumman, is the most sophisticated subsystem on the aircraft and provides threat warning, threat emitter locating capability, and increased situational awareness to the pilot. A new data transfer cartridge holds thirty gigabytes of information. A fiber-optic databus handles the throughput and speed needed for many of these systems. The maintenance system is laptop based.But as far as Indian Air force is concerned , The system will be more complex and mixed.IAF will surely press for best of avionics from Indian agencies,American agencies as well as from Russian,French and Israeli agencies.

Even so, the Indian Air Force has never seemed very interested in the F-16. Weaknesses include the fact that Pakistan also flies F-16s; and it has not performed well in USAF-IAF cope series exercises.The fact it’s a new aircraft type so the entire support infrastructure would have to be developed; and the difficulty Lockheed would have complying with industrial offset provisions given their lack of penetration in India.But Lockheed is inclined to set up a full assembly line here in india. The MMRCA RFP’s delays may have helped Lockheed Martin by allowing them ample time to find arrangements with Indian firms, and there are reports that the USA is pushing this option because of the reassurance factor. While an F-16 E/F Block 60+ would have a number of important advantages over Pakistan F-16 A/Bs and even its new Block 50/52 aircraft, the common underlying aircraft type would probably take some of the edge off of the deal from Pakistan’s point of view.

M-MRCA Deal: EuroFighter Typhoon

The Fourth competitor in the line is EADS’s EuroFighter Typhoon.

Eurofighter Typhoon is a multinational defence project with active participation by Britain, Germany, Italy and spain. It is a fourth plus-plus generation aircraft currently optimized for the air-air role through its performance characteristics and what is by all accounts an excellent pilot interface. It has “supercruise” capability of being able to exceed Mach 1 without using afterburners, though some analysts have cast doubt on how sustainable that is. Some observers believe that aside from the F-22A Raptor, the Eurofighter is the next-best in-service air superiority aircraft world-wide, though the 2007 Indra Dhanush exercise that matched it up against the SU-30MKI makes that a rather debatable claim. More Over the ability of Super Cruise can only be used when the aircraft is clean ie; without any payload. Mean while, Tranche 2 upgrades are giving it more multi-role capability, and India’s delay has given those developments more time to mature.New Air-to-Ground missons and Air-to-Sea missions are added and developed to strengthen it’s multi role abilities. The aircraft is constructed of carbon fibre composites, glass-reinforced plastic, aluminium lithium, titanium and aluminium casting. Stealth technology features include low frontal radar cross-section, passive sensors and supercruise ability.The foreplane / delta configuration is intentionally aerodynamically unstable which provides a high level of agility (particularly at supersonic speeds), low drag and enhanced lift. The pilot controls the aircraft through a computerised digital fly-by-wire system which provides artificial stabilisation and gust elevation to give good control characteristics throughout the flight envelope.But the most impressive is the aircraft’s cockpit technology.It cockpit employs high degree of automation through voice commands. The pilot's control system is a Voice-Throttle-and-Stick system (VTAS), which is a complete new system. The stick and throttle tops house 24 fingertip controls for sensor and weapon control, defence aids management, and inflight handling. The direct voice input allows the pilot to carry out mode selection and data entry procedures using voice command.The quadruplex fly-by-wire flight control system has an Automatic Low Speed Recovery System (ALSR) which provides the pilot with visual and audio low speed warning and will, if necessary, automatically take control of the aircraft and return to safe flight.This is also a new thing which may not find popularity with “maverick-type” fighter pilots.The BAE System’s Striker Helmet Mounted Symbology System (HMS) and head up display show the flight reference data, weapon aiming and cueing, and the FLIR imagery. BAE Systems TERPROM ground proximity warning system is used for terrain avoidance. Depending on role, the fighter can carry the following mix of missiles:
Air-superiority - six BVRAAM (Beyond Visual Range)/AMRAAM air-to-air missiles on semi-recessed fuselage stations and two ASRAAM short-range air-to-air missiles on the outer pylons
Air interdiction - four AMRAAM, two ASRAAM, two cruise missiles and two Anti-Radar Missiles (ARM)
SEAD (Suppression of Enemy Air Defences) - four AMRAAM, two ASRAAM, six anti-radar missiles
Multi-role - three AMRAAM, two ASRAAM, two ARM and two GBU-24 Paveway III/IV
Close air support - four AMRAAM, two ASRAAM, 18 Brimstone anti-armour missiles
Maritime attack - four AMRAAM, two ASRAAM, six anti-ship missiles
With respect to industrial offsets, BAE already has an order from India for 66 BAE Hawk trainers, 42 of which are being built in India. EADS Airbus might also be able to contribute on that front if it can provide some goodies for civial aviation sector.
Weaknesses include the aircraft’s expense, which may stretch India’s budget; the fact it’s a new aircraft type for the IAF so the entire support infrastructure would have to be developed and it lacks an AESA radar(CAPTOR AESA Radar is still under trails); its lack of naval capability( currently under develpoment; and the non-existent geopolitical benefits of selecting it. Given the Eurofighter’s performance and cost range, simply buying more SU-30MKIs would appear to make far more sense.

M-MRCA Deal- Dassault's Rafale

The Third competitor is Dassault Aviation's Rafale

Rafale is a twin-jet combat aircraft capable of carrying out a wide range of short- and long-range missions, including ground and sea attack, air defence and air superiority, reconnaissance, and high-accuracy strike or nuclear strike deterrence. Rafale is the only aircraft in the competition which has a declared nuclear deterrence capability. Advantages of this aircraft includes demonstrated carrier capability in the Rafale-M, which could be a very big factor if the RFP includes that as a requirement, just to make a follow up acquisition plan for Indian Navy. The aircraft offers exceptional ordnance capacity for its size -The Rafale can carry payloads of over 9t on 14 hardpoints for the Air Force version, and 13 for the naval version. The range of weapons includes: Mica, Magic, Sidewinder, ASRAAM and AMRAAM air-to-air missiles; Apache, AS30L, ALARM, HARM, Maverick and PGM100 air-to-ground missiles; and Exocet / AM39, Penguin 3 and Harpoon anti-ship missiles. For a strategic mission the Rafale can deliver the MBDA’s ASMP standoff nuclear missile. In December 2004, the MBDA Storm Shadow / Scalp EG stand-off cruise missile was qualified on the Rafale As you can see most of the armament is of Western Origin. Dassault have to do lot of integration testing for Israeli and Russian origin weapons if it wishes to play tough with Super Hornet or MiG-35. It can have its range extended via conformal fuel tanks. It also offers superior aerodynamic performance over the F/A-18 family. The Rafale claims “super cruise” capability, but observers are skeptical and it has been challenging to demonstrate this with the Snecma R88-2 engine.But personally I feel that Rafale cannot perform “Sustained Super Cruise”. France is also more than willing to help Develop the Kaveri Engine for LCA programme. This would give India’s indigenous jet engine project a broader fleet of aircraft that would amortize its costs better – albeit at a likely performance penalty. The Rafale also offers some equipment, maintenance and spares commonalities with existing Mirage 2000 fleet, which would probably increase if India’s Mirage 2000s are modernized in future. It will also ease out few maintenance and upgrade problems.
Weaknesses include the fact that the Rafale has yet to win a single export competition worldwide and the need for additional funds and work to integrate many non-French weapons if one wishes to use them on the Rafale; and the biggest disadvantage is that it lacks an AESA radar. The Rafale’s failure to win export competitions means more than a perception of “also-ran” status –(the Rafale lost to the F-15SG Strike Eagle during Singapore Coverage), it is already forcing cuts in future Rafale procurement to pay for modernization, a dynamic that could get worse over the next 30 years. Another Disadvantage is it’s price tag. Rafale is the costliest aircraft among all the competitors for the M-MRCA deal.

M-MRCA Deal: F/A-18 E/F Super Hornet

The second Contender is F/A-18 Super Hornet

F/A-18 E/F Super Hornet from the stable of Boeing is a highly upgraded version of the F/A-18 A-D Hornet. Super hornet is much more enlarged and given new engines and avionics. Strengths include its powerful AN/APG-79 AESA radar, which has drawn significant interest from India. The Performance of AESA radar is really impressive and the results have prompted large air forces to induct different varieties of the radar on the older and newer fighter aircrafts. The APG-79 radar could allow Super Hornets to play a unique role in India’s fighter fleet as versatile “quarterbacks” (or better yet, “cricket captains”) due to their radar’s performance and information sharing abilities. Other advantages include carrier capability; a very wide range of integrated weapons; a design that is proven in service and in combat; and complete assurance in its future upgrade spiral given the US Navy’s commitment to it. The existence of a dedicated electronic warfare variant as of 2009 in the EA-18G Growler may also be a potent motivator, as long-range strike and carrier strike will increasingly require this unique capability.If Indian Air Force considers super hornet ,it would be natural to think about Growlers also for ECM conflicts. Last but certainly not least, this choice offers an opportunity to create an early “win” which would strengthen India’s new alliance with the USA and prove its new status in the world. After all, when clearance for the aircraft was given, no other nation had even been offered the F/A-18 E/F Super Hornet. The aircraft is also being fitted with new mission computers, fibre-optic network, Raytheon AN/ASQ-228 ATFLIR targeting pod, Boeing joint helmet-mounted cueing system.The aircraft will also mark the introduction of American Air armaments like Raytheon’s AIM-9X next generation Sidewinder air-to-air missile. Talking About weapons payload capacity, the Super Hornet has 11 weapon stations which include two additional wing store stations and will support a full range of Western armaments including AIM-9 Sidewinder, AIM-7 Sparrow and AIM-120 AMRAAM air-to-air missiles, guided air-to-ground weapons such as Harpoon, SLAM/SLAM-ER, GBU-10, GBU-51, HARM and Maverick; and free-fall air-to-ground bombs, Mk-76, BDU-48, Mk-82LD, Mk-82HD and Mk-84. The aircraft can also carry the GPS- / inertially guided JDAM (Joint Direct Attack Munition), JSOW (Joint StandOff Weapon) and JASSM (Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile).Of Course IAF will press for a greater flexibility in weapons payload since it already operates weapons of Russian, French and Israeli Origin. If Successful, Boeing will make a whole new variant of fighter which can be armed with almost any Air Armament. The cockpit in the F/A-18E/F is equipped with a touch-sensitive control display, a larger multi-purpose liquid crystal colour display, which shows tactical information, two monochrome displays and a new engine fuel display. The E/F version of the aircraft retains the mission software and a high proportion of the avionics found in the C/D models. The cockpit also has a colour digital map and the pilots are equipped with night-vision goggles for round the clock deployment. The zero/zero ejection seat is the SJU-5/6 from Martin Baker Aircraft Company, which is standard for most of the fighters of western origin.

Boeing’s planned $1.5 billion investment in India’s aerospace market may help deal with industrial offset issues; the Super Hornet’s Boeing connection adds many options in the civil aircraft market as well. And this point makes sense also since Indian Civilian AirTravel Industry is looking aggressive and are expected to undertake huge expansion projects.
Weaknesses of the Super Hornet platform include the aircraft’s expense; given the costs to other customers so far, it seems unlikely that Boeing can deliver 126 F/A-18 E/F Block II aircraft for just $10.2 billion, let alone aircraft plus lifetime support. The Super Hornet also offers poorer aerodynamic performance than the Eurofighter or Rafale due to inherent airframe limitations.Indian Air Force like Israeli Air Force emphasizes on High degree of aerodynamic strengths for their Fighter Aircrafts and Training for Close quarter Air-Combats. Finally, it’s a new aircraft type for the IAF, so the entire support infrastructure would have to be developed from the ground up.
Personally I feel that this aircraft has good chance of becoming the winner of the deal if it can beat MiG-35 in evaluations and price tag.

M-MRCA Deal: MiG 29OVT/35

Here's the First contender of the M-MRCA deal

The super manouverable MiG-29OVT aka Mig-35.Two years ago, the MiG-35's prototype, the MiG-29-M/OVT, was displayed at the MAKS-2005 aerospace show in the town of Zhukovsky near Moscow. In January 2007, the MiG-35 was rolled out for the first time ever; and it stole the limelight during the MAKS-2007 show last August. And those of you who have wathched that flight video will know why it was the star of the MAKS-2005 "party".Last year russia unveiled the MiG-35 at the Aero India airshow in Bangalore, amid Moscow's keenness to sell these planes to India. It was reported that the MiG-35 made its way from Moscow to Bangalore in less than three hours, assisted by in-flight refueling on the way and flying at supersonic speeds.The MiG-29 and MiG-29M warplanes are, in fact, fourth-generation and generation four-plus fighters. Indian Air Force Already operates MiG-29 with few indigenous modifications in its avionics. The MiG-35's specifications and performance match the requirements of the Russian Air Force and most foreign customers. The low-risk and inexpensive MiG-35 program will help produce more export-oriented versions.The version was essentially build around IAF M-MRCA deal and Indian Navy's requirement to arm the future aircraft carrier "Vikramaditya" and "Air Defence Ship".As far as the evaluations are concerned the MiG-35 must outperform fourth-generation fighters and equal fifth-generation aircraft to be chosen as the new lead-in fighter for Indian Air Force.MiG-35 designers moved to upgrade the fighter's radio-electronic equipment, while heeding the impressive potential of the MiG-29's aerodynamic concept.
Due to cooperation between RSK MiG and the Fazotron-NIIR corporation, the MiG-35 became the first Russian fighter to feature the Zhuk-AE fifth-generation electronic-scan phased-array radar. As the name suggests Zhuk is a Active Electronic Scanned Array(AESA) radar with multiple target aquisition,identification and attack capabilities.The Zhuk-AE, which has a longer range than the radars of foreign generation plus-plus fighters, can calculate the exact number and type of enemy targets, and facilitates successful beyond-the-horizon attacks.
By increasing the number of its transceiver modules by 50%, the radar's range and target-acquisition parameters can be enhanced considerably. The Zhuk-AE operates in conjunction with two optronic target acquisition and identification systems featuring infrared and laser channels. They detect, identify and automatically track several targets, calculate their coordinates and provide data to the fire-control system. One optronic system tracks aerial targets, and the other one detects ground and naval targets and also provides navigation data. Optronic devices enable the fighter to escape detection by the enemy, facilitate round-the-clock operations and make it possible to hit visible and beyond-horizon targets.The Optronic summary of the aircraft is-



In air combat, the optronic suite allows:
Detection of non-afterburning targets at 45 km range and more;
Identification of those targets at 8 to 10 km range; and
Estimates of aerial target range at up to 15 km.
For ground targets, the suite allows:
A tank-effective detection range up to 15 km, and aircraft carrier detection at 60 to 80 km;
Identification of the tank type on the 8 to 10 km range, and of an aircraft carrier at 40 to 60 km; and
Estimates of ground target range of up to 20 km.



The MiG-35's defensive systems warn the pilot in case of danger and automatically activate ECM (Electronic Counter-Measures) systems and also launches heat and radar decoys. The defensive system equipment consists of radar reconnaissance, electronic countermeasures, and optical systems — notably the laser emission detector on each wingtip — which are able to detect and evaluate the approaching danger and operate decoy dispensers to counteract the approaching threat in the radar and infrared ranges.Moreover, the pilot is notified if the plane is being tracked by enemy radar or targeted by a laser range finder. The system also detects approaching enemy missiles and shows their direction. The optronic systems have the comparable potential as those of american APG series of AESA radar(Excluding APG-81,aboard F-22 Raptor) and can be installed on fifth-generation and generation four plus-plus warplanes.
The MiG-35's most impressive feature, which is not present in any other fighter aircraft in this world is the RD-33OVT thrust-vector engine that was previously tested on the MiG-29. Its intersecting nozzles can point in any direction, enabling the plane to perform breath-taking stunts.This means that the thrust vectoring has an effective angle of full 360 degrees. The engine ensures 100% controllability at maximum and zero speeds and even allows the MiG-35 to fly backwards and performing those exclusive and trademark manouveres like Pucachev's Cobra and kulbit-The aircraft stalls in mid-flight, nose at 90 degrees like a cobra ready to strike, and slides backwards.Complete this manouvre upto 360 degrees and you are head-on-head with the pursuing fighter. In a real dogfight, such a move can turn the hunted into the hunter. The fighter's designers believe that it embodies engineering solutions typical of a fifth-generation fighter and is therefore better than any European aircraft. The MiG-35's design is similar to that of the MiG-29 and makes it possible to increase the internal fuel load by 50% and the ordnance load by over 100%. Unlike the MiG-29, the MiG-35 is now classed as a medium-weight aircraft because its maximum take-off weight has increased by 30%. Drop tanks and a mid-air refuelling system allow it to fly long-range combat missions. R&D, production, operating and recycling expenses have been reduced considerably. Using computer systems to identify faults and target maintenance and repairs where and when it is needed allows engineers to save time. The plane's airframe, engines and equipment also have a longer service life.



There's a strong case with MiG-35 since it has high rate of compatibility with indian aircraft complex ,so there won't be any problem in industrial offset rules.The aircraft also has an upper edge because the MiG-29M version will join the Indian Navy with carrier ship "Vikramaditya".But the aircraft still needs a through evaluation since it is a low cost transformation of an cold war era aircraft.

M-MRCA Deal: Introduction

Last August India released the Request For Proposal(RFP) to replace Indian Air Force’s aging fleet MiG-21 and Mig-23. As per plan, India will acquire 126 new generation Multi-role Combat aircrafts and will also raise 2 supplementary squads of LCA Tejas. The RFP has already raised the temperature in international arms market and competitors are pitching in with new technologies, new support system and new weapon configurations to woo Indian Air Force.This deal is the biggest arms deal since early 1990's.The deal which started to seek and aquire light weight fighters to replace Mig-21 frontline fighters has changed considerably, suggesting the change in india's operational needs and refined demand over high tech military technology.The selected aircraft along with Sukhoi-30MKI and LCA tejas will make up the main fighter squads of IAF. The main competitors for this deal are F-16 Falcon from Lockheed Martin, F-18 Super Hornet from Boeing, Grippen from SAAB, Eurofighter Typhoon from EADS, Rafale from Dassault Aviation and Mig-35 from Mikoyan Gurevich. IAF is fourth largest air force in the world and it is a widely accepted fact that the combat doctrines and operational parameters of IAF are the toughest to match. It is also by the fact that the operational area of IAF ranges from Himalayan ranges to Thar desert and from Bay of Bengal to Rann Of Kutch. It is a time when India is aggressively trying to influence issues on global platform and seeking a “Strategic-Military reach” to deal with "out-of-area" contingencies.

This RFP is quite late and it's because of good amount of reasons.The change in Operational needs by the air force, the changes of clauses in the "Industrial Offset Rules", and the option to order 3 more squadrons(approx. 64 aircrafts...That brings the number close to 180-190). This deal will also pave the way for Navy's Fighter aircraft deal to arm the Indigenous aircraft carrier.Ther's an interesting fact that only 2 aicrafts can hold a good follow up for the navy deal-F/A-18 Super Hornet and Dassault Rafale. It will take good amount of time to completely evaluate these aircrafts in “IAF style”. Many online communities are cooking the discussion about this deal and I had made huge amount of contributions in orkut communities and defence column communities. But things are better sketchy now so I thought of putting a assessment of each aircraft in my blog.

I Will write about each type of aircraft which is competing for the deal.
And You are free to comment .

Taiwan Vs PRC: A David Vs Goliath Story

The roof of World is boiling again after almost 2 decades. In response to the strict Chinese hold on the social, economical n religious life of Tibet, thousands of monks and local youths “marooned” the streets of Lhasa- the caital of Tibet. Native people and communities are protesting against strict laws on practicing Buddhism, setting up Trade and many other basic Rights. The Migration of Han-Chinese people into tibet and implementing major changes in and around the land is causing huge amount of agitation and it’s clearly evident from the magnitude of the protests. While Chinese forces are aggressively marching this “peaceful” part of world attracting lot of diplomatic and religious attention, I think there’s another aspect which is equally disturbing , both in terms of politics and military affairs. The attitude of Chinese communist government towards Taiwan is a pretty long stand and as a matter of fact complicated also.It all started when Kuomintang (KMT) armies of Chiang Kai-shek fled to Taiwan in 1949 after their defeat at the hands of the Communists. Chinese red army was going great guns with this win, setting up diplomatic relations and ties with neighboring communist countries and against anything which is “pro-capitalist”, but the plucky island nation has seen many unique transformations. The KMT had ruled it in its traditional dictatorial way, with the larger than life image of Chiang stamped on Taiwan. But Taiwan progressed economically to become a world centre of excellence in computer technology,biotechnology and modern business methodologies. Taiwan is way different from mainland china.Taiwan is a modern industrial megalopolis with the fringes of old culture.If u step out from chaotic Taipei you will know why it is known as “IIho Formosa” aka “The Beautiful Island”. Sitting beside Siouguluon river and enjoying bunon dance is a nice way to experience the beauty of this island nation. It’s mountainous terrain in the east and gradual slope towards the west strangely echoes it’s geo-political policies which are widely pro-west.
After the US repudiated diplomatic links with Taiwan in a reversal of policy towards the mainland — mid-wifed by Henry Kissinger in 1971 — leaving a military lifeline for the island, the KMT lived by its wits. It’s different thing that under the table and out of media’s attention US remained the main arms supplier and diplomatic back for this tiny but gutsy island nation. The “grand old man of Taiwan”, Lee Teng-hui, the father of the island’s independence movement, helped install Chen Sui-bian in office as President as the island took a dramatic turn towards democracy. Chen’s greatest gift has been the sharpening of the Taiwanese identity, and, except for China, most countries are reasonably happy with supporting a majority of Taiwanese who feel comfortable with its virtual independence. China has not taken off the table the use of force to bring Taiwan into the Chinese State. The United States has accepted Beijing’s "one China" policy but retains an agreement to come to the island’s rescue in times of distress and is the main supplier of arms.
In 1996, the Chinese had lobbed missiles into the Taiwan Strait to discourage the island’s voters to support Lee Teng-hui, a tactic that badly misfired, apart from provoking the US to send a massive naval armada towards the island and installing permanent bomber and tactical air force activity on the Taiwan strait and Indian ocean.The incident also changed the activities of US navy’s Seventh Fleet, Indian Navy and NATO forces stationed at Japan. Today mainland China have become more sophisticated in terms of economy, social structure , wooing Taiwan with promises of lovely future although a formidable array of missiles facing Taiwan remains in place on the mainland. This is a strategy and principle china has been adopting for long- A “White rose” bouquet in one hand and a “Rifle” in another hand.
For one thing, the Taiwanese are in no mood to accept the "one China, two systems" formula under which Hong Kong and Macau became part of the mainland. Taiwan’s transition to democracy has become a new hurdle to the island becoming part of a one-party state, but the Taiwanese identity chiseled by Lee and Chen has encouraged a sense of nationalism, Beijing will find hard to dent. Taiwan has enjoyed de facto independence for close to 50 years and its background as a Japanese colony had kept it out of mainland Chinese mainstream for many years. So there’s less probability of integration, atleast in near future.
Taiwanese Government promises to try to make peace with the mainland by promoting a better security relationship through military confidence-building measures, but it is in effect putting "reunification" on the back-burner for at least some decades. Thus far, Taiwan’s efforts to gain international recognition have become a game and a ritual. The island is recognized by few countries; those that do are small Caribbean, African or other island nations. Every year, Taiwan seeks entry into the United Nations – it was replaced by China in the UN Security Council after the United States transferred its recognition to Beijing – and its application is routinely shot down at the procedural stage. At regional economic group meetings, its representation is pegged at bureaucratic, rather than political levels in deference to Beijing’s sensitivities. In international sporting events, it must compete as Chinese Taiwan.For Taiwanese, these rituals serve a purpose, however hopeless the island’s prospects of wider recognition in the face of strong opposition from Beijing.
It is strengthening the feeling of being Taiwanese. The key question remains: will Beijing have the patience to smother Taiwan in an economic embrace over several decades – an embrace it cannot leave because the two economies will become fused? Or Perhaps Beijing will make a gesture by removing inland some of the intimidating missile batteries aimed at Taiwan.

Kissing: Lay em' out every time

What do u want in ur Male?...Ask a woman and the answers often follow a pattern that appears cliched.."a kind Heart" , "Understanding Nature" , "Intelligence" , "soft Nature" , " sense of humor" n many more N we men can go on n on about beauty, Intelligence ,Beautiful eyes , Sexy legs , N pretty smile , n the list goes on.The fact is that we all share our instinctiveness preferences and wat we find alluring in our mate is rooted in our evolutionary development , But there's still a big question mark on "What Women wants?".....well to start with, we men can never be sure of it...as she often is clueless abt wat she wants...but u know itz easy to tap on her fragile shoulders and pose a few pointers...to which she will affirm with a shy smile(In 90% of the chances) and an averted ,yes!(Oh com'on m nt naughty...Itz romance...N an attempt to understand wat she likes n wants). I don know abt much of the things...N m always a learner as far as women are concerned...But I feel M gd at few things...N would definately share it wit u guyz............A kiss can be the most rocking, soul satisfying and mind blooooowwwing activity between two lovers.... The fine art of kissing can get little tricky at times.U think u have mastered it, just to find out tat in actuality ....you do nt. Imagine ur droping her home and want to give tat “intimate n gentle kiss” bt u hold back because ur nt sure abt urself or to an extent abt her also.Well..kissing is about self control and letting loosen and at the same time holding back....sounds contradictory n wierd...But guyz we are talkin abt females of Homo Sapiens species...they themselves are complete personification of contradiction n wierdness .....Kissin 's about taking your time and rushing through and ya I forgot to mention abt breath then heaving and moaning (seriously!!!)....Kissing is lot like hypnotizing. There are moments of intense emotions and silent concentration as each of the participants awaits the perfect moment to spring to life and strike at the other to overtake them and send them straight to heaven. We, men, can get a li’l excited and get carried away, thinking about the “prospects” and make some dire mistakes.I think the best rule is to keep all the emotions moderate .We all know that too much of anything is not good.
My personal best is gentle rolling of my tongue in her mouth while nibbling at her lower lip.Well..I think it’s a way to heighten the moment.But jabbing the tongue in her mouth , darting it in and out as if u were tryin to stab her in the mouth, licking her like itz the last drop of ur butterscotch ice cream is just not goin to cut it....Oh com’on m talking about gentle romance.....learn it N live it....N i bet she will remember the kiss for the rest of her life....she will actually cherish it...The best kiss is always the very first of the evening .You have been anticipating it but don knw about the right time.Well...U see..there should always be some element of uncertainty. If u keep the motions varied as well as ur level of arousal, they will begin to fall into the moment and relish the idea that they never seem to know what your are goin to do next.U know itz always gd to be li’l mischievous....it should be in a fun n tantalizing way........Like after a intense moment of embrace and heavy passionate kissing...jus pull back and look straight into her eyes.... wait for her to build up, then go back and make her feel like ur goin for another heavy one..but instead make it soft and gentle...let her melt...and I bet this will loose her like hell...n u don have to think abt “ What Next??” ...She will take care of tat...Itz now on her own accord. Now ball's in her court n she will serve..U jus have to play on

Have fun though...Its all abt tat....Ofcourse on heavier perspective itz more about love...Making her feel that ur there to love her...Ur there to comfort her...Ur there to secure her....N to top of all U love her and she;s special........Sounds nice....There’s no hard and fast rule for kissing but guys telling u one thing that a pleasant experiment is always a welcome ....Kissing is in itz best wen ur bringing elements of creativity , expressiveness n honesty( ya honesty.....Even if u just wanna be on the surface of the affair...)

Have Fun!!!!

Sheltered Crimes.....Mafia N Bhai

Through out history crime has existed in many different forms and structures.It has been committed by individuals as well as groups......some commited it for money .....some for power......some for lust...n some for hatred....Crime knows no precints...It committed by All races ...all classes of society and it exists in every time period. Crime exists in Organised as well as un organized way and strangely for some itz a life style and no less then religion .The Mafia of Italy and America...The Bhais of our own amchi Mumbai.....all are forms of organized crime and are propelled by more than cash bundles or power plays....These are source of a dark and very attractive religion. Itz dark but itz seems so spectacular .People like me who always loved power and guns think it as religion. Many fall into it and few able to escape it. The first rule of this religion is that itz easy to enter but itz impossible to leave it..there’s no retirement...Only death can grant u freedom .Joining the mafia and Bhai’s gang is like joining a religion.Many are there who are smitten by the bedazzling effect of this religion.Who can forget Al pacino in GodFather and scarface......robert de Niro’s The untouchables .......n again al pacino n Jhony depp starrer Donnie Brasco......N closer to home...Our Malik bhai n Chandu bhai....

Leave reel life n look in real life ...look back and u will see Charles Luciano, The great Boss of Bosses n his infamous Murder Inc. in manhattan. In 1920’s he used to control the full prostitution business of manhattan...Manhattan itself describes that itz not street type prostitution and many high profile people were his regular customers.He was kidnapped,beaten n stabbed severely and repetedly with an ice pick...Miraculously he survived and took the oath of “Omerta” which was a vow never to reveal any mafia secret under penalty of death and torture. He rose to the rank of Boss of bosses and strangely helped America in the invasion of sicily...Look at his reach and power that he facilitated one important international political event.In return of his help American authorities deported him to Rome. He died of a heart attack in 1962. Myer Lansky was also a prominent name in American mafia circuit.He was an close associate of Luciano.
Mafia world is governed by Gun, Money, Power, Silence but the mafia philosophy is also also strange...Oh ya They have some philosophy also.........There philosophy is centered around the word “ Omerta” which refers to the idea of “ A man resolving his own problems”. Today the Italian-american mafia remains the most powerful operating and controlling crime groups in Sicily, Chicago and New york city. The term mafia has now expanded and being used for many other groups involved in organized crime like the Russian mafia, the Japanese mafia...)...Itz a religion which grows on blood and will continue to attract many ....As the mafia book says “Your free when you are dead”.
