SLAF bombs Mullaithiv

Sri Lanka Air Force (SLAF) fighter jets bombed an LTTE military installation located in Uddayak-Kattukulama, Mullaithiv today at 9.20AM. The raid was carried out following military intelligence reports of LTTE maintaining an ammunition storage at the target location. Although fighter pilots have confirmed accurate hits on the target, exact details on damages caused to LTTE assets or lives are not available as of now.

Meanwhile intelligence reports from LTTE held Wanni indicated that  3 LTTE cadres have been killed and 8 more injured when SLAF bombed a sea tiger base north of Nayaru lagoon on the 22nd.

    I hear an SLA soldier was killed by 'friendly' fire in Anuradhapura. Can you confirm it please?
    It is said that a soldier entered the camp suspeciously and another soldier manning the sentry opened fire and killed him.

  6. Defencenet,

    I've heard that five Mig29s will be in service soon. I know that the aim is to primarily use them as interceptors. But do Mig29s have the capability to carryout air to ground night missions? If so, I guess they will be useful to restrict the nocturnal activities of the terrorists.

    Thanks.

    As far as we know Sri Lanka is after the MiG-29 SM (Fulcrum-C) variant (in fact 4x mig29SM and 1x mig29UB trainer).
    MIG29SM is not a dedicated fighter but a multi role aircraft; has the capability to attack both air and ground targets including the ability to carry guided munitions. And they do have the ability to attack at night.

    From what we understand SLAF will combine newly acquired f-7Gs and mig29s(when they join SLAF fleet that is) to create a multi layered air defence network. Mig29s ability to attack ground will of course will be a bonus since we already have mig27s and kfirs for that.

    abarip,
    We are unable to confirm the story right now.

  9. Thanks Defencenet for the quick reply.

    The Fulcrms will probably not be needed much in an interceptor role, but I think it will be a good deterrent for the LTTE "airforce", given that the Fulcrums are supposed to be even better than the US's F-15s (largely due to Fulcrums having a wider angle target acquisition mechanism that is facilitated by the helmet mounted sights).

    Anyways, it is good that they could be useful for nighttime air to ground operations, this almost justifies the cost. These would be especially useful if/when the armored corps start their advance.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Rover, as of now we do not need Mig-29sm's. F-7Gs can take care of the immediate threats from LTTE "air force". And combination mix of Mig-27s, Kfirs, F-7Gs, and Mi-24/35s can be used for LTTE ground targets. However, we have to look into the future and in time we will have to get rid of our Kfir fleet and maintain mix formidable force of Mig-27s, Mig29sm and F-7Gs.

    Also as defencenet said good mix of F-7Gs, MiG-29SM, AAA, SAMs and 3D radar will offer a multi layered air defence network.

    Leaving all corruptions and commissions a side. Mig-29SM without a doubt proven battle harden aircraft and a great buy for SLAF.

  11. I would love to see MIG-29s used for NIGHT air raids on tiger hideouts. I would like to see them attack tiger FDL in the night. Keep them exhausted. I was surprised when Navy attacked tigers and except for one tiger wessel others escaped. Why cannot SLAF fighters support the Navy's fabulous work on keeping tiger supply routes on the run?

  12. Dear neighbours,

    By recognising Tamil Eelam both countries will have wonderful future. The government of Tamil Eelam would consider granting entry visas to Sri Lakans. Sri Lankans can focus on developing their own country rather wasting more money in arms and ammunitions or giving them to the LTTE at free of charge or by corruption. When more Tamil-Diaspora visit their motherland they will visit to their neighbouring country. It will generate more foreign money boost the Sri Lanka’s Tourism Industry. I am not joking friends. Think out of the box! If there are two countries in the Island, everyone will have a better life. One forcefully united country will mean no one is going to be happy. Decide before the stage where you become too poor to buy a piece of bread while Gottabaya (Mahinda Company) is investing in properties in America and in other European countries. Madam Chandrika bought many properties in Europe. Who is going to suffer? poor Sinhala working class. Wake up now otherwise you would have died in hunger by that time.

    We would also offer citizenships to the Sinhaleese who are already settled in the Tamil Eelam providing they have some knowledge in the history and culture of the Tamil Eelam and they have some basic knowledge in writing, reading and speaking of the official language of the country. We can have free trade agreements to bring our economy of the both countries up

    See you when time permits me

  14. My few secs for today:

    I am glad to see Sri Lanka acquiring some advanced machines. Hopefully, the introduction of MIG29s will reduce the number of "collateral damage" which are often "our" loved ones. This may also reduce the "retaliatory" "bus bombs" that end of disrupting the day-to-day lives of Sinhalese people.

    From what I have gathered on the WWW, MIG29 is a primarily an "air superiority" craft with "some" air to ground capability. It will surely be a "miracle" if the TAF manages a raid during the service time of MIG29s.

    Also, the craft's ground attack capabilities are both "guided" and "dumb" bombs. Hopefully Sri Lanka has enough money for "guided" bombs. As long as they are not "guided" onto Navali Church or Nagarkoil Highschool or similarly "civilian" intensive areas.

    This also means that LTTE will have to amend/ advance their air defence capabilities accordingly. Hopefully the Diaspora will rise to the challenge.

    I agree.

    I am wondering about what kind of nighttime capabilities would be available on the Fulcrums. I suppose it will be something like FLIR, the thermal imaging systems. What else is out there?

    don't worry pete, Lanka will be liquid enough to finish off the LTTE filth soon.

    BTW, if I'm not mistaken the SLAF are already familiar with guided bombs EG the laser designated variety which was used to take out Barber.

    "I was surprised when Navy attacked tigers and except for one tiger wessel others escaped."

    I think even the damaged LTTE vessel was towed back to the beach. So I think they did not loose a vessel after all.

    It would be good if the Navy had a dedicated fleet of fighters. But guess we are too poor for that? I also wonder how good the coordination between the Airforce and the Navy is.

    Oh right you mean like the time the "Auto activated air defence system" obliterated an SLAF Kfir from the skies?

    Remember, when the 100% truthful and accurate TamilNut.com proudly showed the world how smart they were?

    It was definitely a Kfir (not a cluster bomb) ;-)

  20. Interestingly MiG-29s can carry CLUSTER BOMBS and as far as I know SL is NOT a signatory to the ban of cluster munitions.??

    Even more interestingly in 2006 SL sent a weapons wish list to Pakistan included in it were cluster bombs.

    This is only a possibility, but it can definetely be a multiplier of SLAF's effectiveness.

    Be careful tiger toilets, Fulcrums are coming to scrwe you!

    With all due respect, I find the following funny.

    "From what we understand SLAF will combine newly acquired f-7Gs and mig29s(when they join SLAF fleet that is) to create a multi layered air defence network."

    a multi layered air defence network AGAINST ZLINGS??? the fly verses sledgehammer story.

    but i may be missing something. maybe tigers pose a bigger threat than Zlings????

    i agree with sldf that we need to be futuristic. but with the available info. on threats to SL, F-7s. MiG27s, etc. can do a good job both air-to-air and air-to-ground.

    I still think US$15 a plane is TOO MUCH for SL.

    rover,

    MiG27s, KFirs, F-7s, K-8s were not designed to launch cluster bombs although some of them can use certain types (if SLAF so wishes and got the goodies). But MiG29 being a MULTIROLE fighter/bomber it was specifically desiged to carry cluster munitions also (among a VERY large array of bombs and missles). However, its normal payload is lower than the Flogger.

  42. //sri lanka's conflict is a blessing in disguise for them coz that helps them to stay in those countries as refugees. //

    This is one importent factor our governments forgot to consider, specialy during peace talks. As long as fighting continuous tamils (not sinhalese) have the prvilage to get visas for western countries and stay there. By miltary means or political negotitaions ending war is a nightmare for tamil di-ass-pora. If they don't pay for LTTE, both he war and LTTE will eventualy come to an end. So it is better to pay some $$$ and stay in western countries rather than go back to a peaceful wanni. This is one self motivating factor for di-ass-pora funding which make sure war is going on.

  43. Following is some of the things UNP/ Kirialla will probably say in the coming weeks/ months.

    [We need to understand LTTE, tigers in this blog can say the same and there can't be any issue as they are tigers.]

    1. SarathF said war will be over in March/August/2008. So is it over now? He should resign. etc

    2. SarathF said there are only xxxx tigers reamining and SLA said they have killed xxxx tigers so far. Now all the tigers should be over. With whom SLA is fighting? etc

    3. GR said vp celebrated his final bday. But he is celebrating it again. GR shouls resign. etc

    The real objective behind such propaganda is to demoralise SLA and there by faciltate for some victory for LTTE, before next election. (Think about a soldier who goes on leave to south and listen these crap via media 24 times a day. After all they are human beings.)

    Even though DN/DW gives LTTE full strength as 40,000 including all the sections I don't think GSL can reveal officialy the same figure even though they know it by MI. I hope SLA take necassary steps to prevent demoralising own troops from this kind of propaganda.

    No way that SLAF pilots will get their hands on these in the next 15-20 years these are the latest and greatest and also no other country has these. We should be looking at things that we can afford remembering that we are a poor country with people living in poverty and not with billions of $$ to waste like the USA.

    Your idea of an advance. I think that any direct advance on adampan will be a death sentence for the troops involved. It is mined, booby trapped plus LTTE no that this is a milestone for the army so they will have many machine guns and snipers in the area. The best way to caputre adampan to go around it suddenly cutting it off and laying siege to it or taking it from the north. Capturing this village should not be a priority. It will be better to proceed as there are aiming to capturte western coast of Mannar in the long term.

  60. The MiG-29SM is a multi-role fighter with improved airborne avionics and enhanced nomenclature of high precision weapons capable to destroy the air and ground (surface) targets. At development of the MiG-29SM aircraft version the main attention was paid to reduction of the up-grading cost and terms.

    The MiG-29 aircraft upgrading to the MiG-29SM version results in inclusion into the N-019E (N-019ME) airborne radar composition of an independent radar-channel with MVK-04 computer, in upgrading of the optical electronic fire control & navigation system due to integration of a new data display system with a MFD-54 multifunction color display and installation of additional weapons management control system. The flight-navigation and radio-communication equipment is added with the multifunctional computer, GPS receiver and additional radio-station. It is provided for the use of a new electronic counter-measures system in pod.

    In the composition of MiG-29SM airborne avionics the data exchange multiplex channel is added (bus of MIL STD 1553B standard).

    The "A-A" class weapons nomenclature is added with middle-range missiles R-27ER1, R-27ET1 (T1) with radar-guided and IR homing heads and RVV-AE missiles with active radar homing heads.

    The up-graded weapons management system ensures the application of high precision weapons of the "A-S" class: Kh-29T (TE), Kh-31A, Kh-31P missiles and guided bombs KAB-500Kr and KAB-500-OD. While using the target designation pod or target external illumination it is possible to apply the Kh-29L, Kh-25ML missiles as well as the laser guided bombs.

    It is possible to adapt the MiG-29SM aircraft to the NATO and/or ICAO standards.

    While upgrading the original aircraft to the MiG-29SM version the following optional works can be fulfilled:
    – aircraft structure reinforcement for the extension of flight hours and service life up to 100% (depending on the aircraft technical condition);
    – increase of internal fuel tanks capacity;
    – installation of in-flight refueling systems of different types;
    – improvement and/or replacement of some airborne systems;
    – repair and transfer to on-condition maintenance.

    The MiG-29 aircraft upgrading to the MiG-29SM version can be fulfilled without aircraft delivery to Russia. The Customer’s companies or of the third countries may be involved into upgrading.

    The equipment required for MiG-29 aircraft upgrading to the MiG-29SM version as well as appropriate algorithmic description and software have been already tested aboard the aircraft and is in serial production and operation with Customer.

    Besides the upgrading of the previously supplied aircraft, the new aircraft of the MiG-29SM type can be manufactured.

  61. If the International Community or India for that matter wants to establish ealam the GOSL should remind them that the following will come as the direct result of that.

    1.). All the Tamils must vacate non-ealam parts of the island.(including East and Hill country)


    2.).Politico-millitary government will come in to effect.


    3.). Will invite Chinese Army to establish massive millitary bases along the borders...
    (This is to counter threats from all external forces, specially Tamilnadu and India.)
    4.). No UN forces whatsoever.

  64. Something to mention-worthy.

    From Defence.lk.

    "Foursquare Church President expresses his gratitude to Secretary Defence for providing assistance

    President of Foursquare Gospel Church Rev Jack Hayford has expressed his gratitude to Defence Secretary Gotabaya Rajapaksa for providing assistance to release the two pastors of the church who had been arrested recently. The two pastors of the evangelist movement were arrested by the police on suspicion to for having connection with the LTTE terrorists.

    Following is the full text of the letter sent by Rev Jack Hayford

    The International Church of the Foursquare Gospel would like to hereby express our deep gratitude for your assistance in expediting the release of our pastors. We are extremely appreciative for your involvement and petitioning on our behalf. Your willingness to meet with Reverends Leslie Keegel and Amos Dodge was very kind and your support was instrumental in bringing resolve to this situation.

    The Foursquare Church looks forward to a bright future of cooperation and partnership as we strive to serve the wonderful people of Sri Lanka. The pastors who were released will now have the opportunity to assist people with physical needs, comport those with emotional trauma, love people who feel abandoned and promote reconciliation.

    On behalf of our over 54,000 Foursquare Churches in 148 nations around the world we would like to again express our heartfelt thanks to you. May the Lord be with you as you serve your great country.

    Rev. Jack Hayford

    President, International Church of Foursquare Gospel"

  70. Guys think of this. The LTTE smuggled in some lawn-mover parts, and some left over aircraft parts and assembled two crop-dusters and calls it the Tamil Eelam Air force. We spent millions of hard earned money on buying overpriced sophisticated Mig 29s to counter their crop dusters. Cost to the LTTE? probably $ 5k cost to us? $ hundreds of millions, opportunity cost to us? Who knows!!

    You tell me who won in this instance!!

    ReplyDelete
  71. guys, i have a theory o why SLAF is pursuing the mig29,....namely-its ability to deploy presition guided munitions,..seems of late,SLAF sorties are based on very reliable intel....the weak link seems to be the inaccuracy associated with unguided bombs,....exg:- 20 bombs dropped on prabha's bunker during he was hurt...
    why the 20 bombs, and why was prabha only hurt?,.........totally diff scenario if we had a smart bomb deployment.

    what to you guys think?

  75. The story about the LTTE abducting Sinhalese fishermen and using them as forced labor shows that the LTTE has a serious manpower shortage.

    This reminds me of the last days of IPKF when they were going about trying to create the Tamil National Army. They forcibly conscripted adult males in the east regardless of whether they were Tamil or Sinhalese. Of course the Tamil National Army disintegrated within a few weeks after the IPKF left. The Chief Minister Vardaraja Perumal fled to Mauritious (he is now in Rajastahna India). Most of the members of the Tamil National Army deserted at the first opportunity. The point I'd like to make is that forcibly conscripted people(most of the LTTE cadres are forcibly conscripted), are not motivated to fight.

    ReplyDelete
  76. Sans, thanks the useful info.

    Initially I wasn't a proponent of getting the Fulcrums, but when you consider their nighttime versatility, air to ground capabilities, and the role as a deterrent, I think they are a worthwhile investment. I really hope that they will be used to provide cover for the MID operations at night (when the LTTE arti positions open up, Fulcrums can home in using FLIR).

    "With all due respect, I find the following funny.

    "From what we understand SLAF will combine newly acquired f-7Gs and mig29s(when they join SLAF fleet that is) to create a multi layered air defence network."

    a multi layered air defence network AGAINST ZLINGS??? the fly verses sledgehammer story."

    Its not just for the Zlins. They will be used for a long time to facilitate SLAF's air superiority role which currently lacks a modern interceptor (f-7Gs are not the best interceptors although they will outdo Zlins by miles). The drawback with a layered defence is that maintaining several different types of aircraft will consume a lot of resources.
    But then again we can be sure that air tiger wont grow into a considerable force just like the sea tigers did years ago.

  84. If Karuna is to be sent back to SL before the EP election, I wonder if he might rejoin Pliian or oppose him and create hell in the East.Gosl must be careful of this, as he may have been influenced by the Diaspora that may have contacted him with the help of his new found friend Jayadevan.One must remember that their ultimate goal is a state of their own. Recent TV documentaries like betrayal must give us lessons from the chaotic situation Iraq, where the allied forces trusted some who went back and turned against them and the government of Iraq.

  90. Guys,

    I agree that MIG-29 is a far superior aircraft to F-7. My question is, why did we bother with F-7 in that case? I mean we knew we were going to buy MIG29’s, so what was the need to buy F-7’s if they both can perform the same role (interceptor) for SLAF?

    Thanks!

  92. Parakarama,

    Sorry, I deleted my post by a mistake, here it is again.

    I think the reason is 4 Migs (one of the five migs is a trainer it seems) is not enough to effectively curb the TAF, because TAF probably have more than four planes. If they launch all their planes together, coming from different diractions, we will be confused as which one to get. Furthermore, usually, the primary fighter has a wingman, and each Fulcrum can have a F7 has its wingman, which will make a nice (low cost) team.

  96. My few secs for today:

    I read one of the "funniest" articles of all time on DefenceLK. Surely the "kitchen sink" is out not. Gosh, & there was me thinking that no one could beat Hilary Clinton's Bosnia "ordeal". Anyways, I hope that the eight "escapees" are safe now.

    My only worry is that all this time when LTTE meeting points and coordinating centres were being bombed; Sinhalese abductees could have been the real victims.

    I think Sri Lanka needs to carry out an urgent census to determine how many Sinhalese have been "abducted". Surely, you can not rely on relatives to report their loved ones as "missing".

    Second news of the day that caught my eye was the mine attack in Batticaloa. My thoughts are with the widows and orphans of the two dead policemen. Also, the grapevine has it that the injured STF had lost their legs.

    I think Pillaiyan Group may have been responsible for this, despite LTTE trying to take credit. LTTE "lost" that east over a year ago. I don't think there is any chance of LTTE operating in Batticaloa.

    in case India or IC helps LTTE to set up TE.....

    i agree with you. in such an eventuality like any other country we will have to save our interests first as it would prove beyond all reasonable doubt that there is no one concerned about us.

    these measures must be made clear by the govt. immediately BEFORE a possible intevention for TE. that will make them THINK (not rely on LTTE propoganda) about the fuking reality : more than 60% tamils live among the sinhalese PEACEFULLY. why jeopadise 60% tamil people for the satsfaction of less than 5% LTTE?

    and what you say makes sense as happened (and happening) in india/pakistan/bangladesh even bhutan!

I was at the jungle for 3 weeks and slowly came back to the university and stayed for 2 weeks and some how came to Kadiresan (bamba) Hall as refugee (we never returned back to bati since we lost our belongings, we are not bati ppl though). soon after that i hear the killing was happened. i was there for 6 months in bati, We suffered like nothing. i was in grade 6 went to school for 5 months if i am not mistaken. you all guys/majority never been there and never believe that SLA/GOSL does those thing, GOSL payed for our belonging wer burnt, my dad never gave up till they (GOSL) pay took legal action.(they are the worst at that time). but now it has been changed.

    sob..sob..sob…well well, it appears it is the day for sobbing today!!! LMSSAO!!!

    No, by sob I meant “crying, whimpering” and not the universally recognized SOB label which too is quite applicable to your genre I know! LMSSAO!!!

    Now, let’s get back to sob stories…you filthy bastards have the gall to come here and sob sob about these so called attacks on “Tamil civilians” by our SLDF’s when we all know that yes, these accounts are essentially that – “so called” – as I know well that most of these are the cleverly concocted stories that the LTTE propaganda arm put out for consumption by the IC (confirmed to me personally by an ex-LTTEr in Montreal once when I visited Canada) and the vile, false propaganda was such intense that yes, even the coaxed “victims” eventually become demented and actually began to believe that these things really did happen to them!!! Wow!

    This is not to say there were no “excesses” by the SLDF (like from any other army fighting horrific terrorism), but to come up with these cock & bull sob stories, in my view really makes you sob’ing bastards, SOBs!!!

    Your LTTE MF’s have killed innocent Sinhela/Tamil/Muslim/Burgher civilians by the thousands upon thousands and no, I guess for you those horrific killings (where whole commercial building bombing – like the Central Bank - train bombings, bus bombings, supermarket bombings etc. etc.) are really irrelevant as long as you can sob sob like a bloody dick-limpy faggie!

    Anyway, let’s get something straightened out shall we? And, up-front let me tell you that this is NOT NEGOTIABLE!

    It does not matter who kills who, as the “cardinal rule” is that:

    Sri Lanka will NEVER EVER be divided!

    Sri Lanka is our Motherland and she will stay a UNITARY nation despite who got killed by whom and who continues to kill whom! If you SOB’s were so concerned about killings, then I would have expected for you to have abandoned the LTTE’s murderous dream long ago…well, we all know you didn’t, which tells us that your killings/sufferings at the hand of SLDF aren’t actually what you make it out to be!!!

    Now speaking of killings, yes, naturally we like it to be that “SLDFs are killing far, far more LTTE MF’s than being killed by LTTE MF’s” and this is precisely what is happening now and we Sri Lankans truly rejoice at that!

    So, do your “sob sob sob” now as soon this war is going to be over and then your fake sobs and your SOB characters will be totally irrelevant!

    LMSSAO!!!

  121. A note on the MiG29 or Fulcrums….

    I again talked to an “authoritative source” at the SLAF and was told that buying these Fulcrums were to stay ahead of the LTTE thread (rather than reacting, which we are very good at doing in this war as proven many times) as we still don’t know for sure the extent of LTTE’s “crop-duster air force” as well as it is a fact that our Kfirs are now aging and will be in need of retirement in the near future and these Fulcrums are indeed a lethal and an attractive price proposition to do the same job – and even a better job given their night sortie/PGM/craft-defense capability etc.

    I think we need to think progressively and be “ready for the unexpected” and not be complacent with “facts at hand” and make the same mistake we made, with dire consequences, in all these “eelam wars!”

    all this nonsense is because one bloody MF named pirapaharan who goes about killing people for 'liberation' just like hitler did supposedly for the liberation of the german race. what bullshit.

    learn to live together with other races, obey the law and have the gutts to call a terrorist a terrorist no matter what.

    as defencewire pointed out GOSL still pays the pension of pirapaharan MF's father in addition to providing free education to his miserable children and every month sending free INSULIN and other medicine for the bloody ungrateful pig!!!

    to have the balance, mention those as well in your posts.

    after starting violence against SL don't think nothing would happen.

    # March 26: TAF attacked Sri Lankan air force base at Katunayake in which three government soldiers killed and 17 others injured.

    # April 24: Again the TAF inflicted damage to a Sri Lankan army engineering unit in the Palali military complex leaving six soldiers dead and a dozen others wounded.

    # April 26: TAF attack on Katunayake air base failed.

    # April 29: TAF bombers successfully targeted two oil storage facilities in Kolonnawa and Muththuraajawala.
    Altogether 23 aircraft have been lost in the attack on the Anuradhapura Airbase. The most valuable craft lost included the Beechcraft, two brand-new UAVs and one highly sophisticated UAV with thermal glare detection capability. The LTTE has thus completely annihilated the aerial reconnaissance capability of the Armed Forces.

    Five Mig-29 fighter Jets From Russia To Crack Down Final LTTE Strongholds

    Last week Russia's officials revealed that they are ready to export five Mig-29 fighter jets to Sri Lanka as a help to counter LTTE terrorism. MiG-29 designed for the air superiority role in the is a 4th generation jet fighter aircraftSoviet Union. At present Russian Air Force, Ukrainian Air Force, Indian Air Force and Iranian Air Force are the top users of Mig-29 fighter air crafts.
    These fighter jets are equipped with very latest armory such as1x 30 mm GSh-30-1 cannons,Up to 3,500 kg (7,720 lb) of weapons including 6 air-to-air missiles — a mix of semi-active radar homing (SARH) and AA-8 'Aphid', AA-10 'Alamo', AA-11 'Archer', AA-12 'Adder', FAB 500-M62, FAB-1000, TN-100, ECM Pods, S-24, AS-12, AS-14. These air-to-air missiles can be used to destroy LTTE light air crafts although a Mig-29 is more than enough to do that job.

  136. I accept that LTTE did killing Sinhalese people, by Bombing and things...but It was an Eye for an Eye!

    ex. When SriLankan Air force dropped 18 bombs on a Tamil Orphanage and killed 64 school orphan girls and injured 140 of them; the LTTE took revenge on Sinhala Army...A LTTE Black Tiger with a Suicide truck killed 110 Sri Lankan Soldiers!

    ex. When the Sri Lankan Deep Penetration team killed 18 people in Vanni with claymore mine attack...The LTTE bombed a buss killing 20 Sinhalese people...Tigers are basically taking revenge for the Killing done by the Sri Lankan Army of Tamils...

    Sorry to tell your this but you won't hear about what Sri lankan soldiers did to the Tamils in the Media...You only hear "LTTE Bombed a bus, killing 20 people" but ever asked why they did it? its because Sri Lankan Airforce bombs Tamil Refugee camps and next day in the Media you read "Sri Lankan Air force's F-7 or MIG 27 destroyed LTTE Bunker and ammunition dump; the Pakistani pilot confirms it!"

    Please I stop killing eachother! IF the LTTE are terrorist, then Sri Lankan Government are terrorist too! They both kill innocent people to take revenge on eachother!

    Please Warmongers, understand this, War will make corpses of us all!

    Think about it! By wiping the LTTE you can't solve the Problem!

    Instead of accepting the fact that Sinhalese did discriminate against the Tamils; Sinhala only act, Standardization reqiring Tamils to get higher marks to attend University, Burning Jaffna Library with all its priceless Artifact by Sri Lankan Police officers while 2 Sinhalese ministers supervised the atrocity, 1955 and the famous 1983 genocide of Tamils in Colombu!

    Instead of accepting Sinhalese did discriminate Tamils in Education, Profession, Language, culture and the right to life...you would basically blame this whole problem on an oppressed minority which is fighting for its survival!

    Understand this: LTTE is not the creation of Tamils, It is the Creation of Sinhala Extremism! LTTE are there because there are many Tamil Youths who are not satisfied by the acts/behavior of Sri Lakan government!

    Change your ways and LTTE won't be an issue for anyone!

    Live and let live!

    Let me repeat: WAR WILL MAKE CORPSES OF US ALL!

  140. This is something for Mig-29 interests. This an accident happened in one of the air shows in England. Official report says it is due to a pilot mistake of the wing man.

    I watched this incident in National Geographic channel and it says Mig-29 has one of the most advanced ejecting systems of all aviation history other than it's maneuverability. Nice thing about this accident is nobody died from it and I hope SLAF pilots will not attempt this kind of heroics :).

  142. jay ramen,

    Tamil extremism/racism and demands for separation started as early as the 1920's when the Tamils were still a favoured and highly priviledged minority under the Brits. Their unreasonable and racist demands pre-dated the so called discrimination by the Sinhalese post-independence.

  147. crimewatch,

    I'm not saying that a few incidents have not occurred. But that's nowhere as near as the fictional incidents that was on that comment (And definitely not so much as to write a whole book about it. I guess they are not shyam's own fiction but from the author of this book). On the other hand, the villages destroyed by LTTE might be quite worth noticing, enough to set a world record probably.

    "SLDF is a baby, still Kiri suwandawath gihilla ne"

    Oh hell!!!! Like LTTE is SO grown up! The people who can't even lie properly....saying SLAF bombs their forests and their people are so shocked about it. I can laugh for hours just by thinking of that...

    thambala,
    I don't think there will be any dogfights between SLAF and LTTE. Even if MIG-29's encounter their kurumbettis, there will be no need for a dogfight, just one guided missile will do. I mean, the MIG can do circles around that plane. If the unfortunate (for LTTE) event occurs where the kurumbetti plane meets a MIG-29, the pilot had better jump out, at least he can save his life (but I don't know if this is possible, they probably won't have parachutes).

    I state what the true history in ma earlier postings ... and in early 1980's the population of sinhala people in EAST is very low... In Baticalo DIS it 0.53% and in Trinco there were only 4 Families ...but if you check the population at this movement every one can find out the GOV SL's cunning strategy ....

  159. A picture paints a thousand words…

    Take the official insignia of the LTTE for example; what kind of words does it paint in the mind of an average human being?

    LTTE Flag

    I didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry when I learnt that late Tamli(barber)selvam was nom de plumed as the “LTTE dove of peace”! Pictures of this “dove” standing next to the LTTE flag were published in the media which made a mockery both of peace and doves.

    Firstly, the words LTTE and Peace are contradictions in terms. By now any right minded person would acknowledge this.

    Secondly, it is an insult to doves (or even to filthy Trafalgar Square pigeons) that a human of this calibre were to be called a “dove”; LTTE “vulture”, would be more befitting (no offence to the scavenging bird).

    Thirdly, the LTTE flag does not depict or portray even an iota of peace, harmony or any virtue for that matter; it is intrinsically martial in nature portraying and promoting only violence, mono-ethnic fascism and anything that is on the opposite end of the spectrum to peace and goodness.

    Just take a few minutes to appreciate the LTTE flag. The prominent feature is the face of a ferocious, realistic looking tiger with its mouth wide open filled red with blood. It appears to have an insatiable appetite for blood with its eyes blood-red as if possessed by a multitude of demons prodding it and tormenting it to shed more blood and destroy life. Its claws are ready to pounce on its victims and tear their flesh to ribbons in an instant.

    The background is also blood red supporting the blood-thirst of the creature in the middle. It is as if the creature has eyes only for one colour; blood red! The emblem makes no secret of how this evil creature is intending to gratify its appetite for human blood. Two fire arms with bayonets attached surrounded by bullets and shells, the demonised creature is equipped and ready to embark on its evil mission.

    LTTE propaganda machine who are self brain-washed and blinded by their own deceit cannot see this simple picture….ammapa…

    Shyam,

    The majority of the Tamil people live in so called "Sinhalese areas." Take Colombo for example. According to the last national census, 12% of the population of the Colombo District and 30% of the population in the Colombo Municipal area is Tamil. These percentages may gone up or down by a few points but are basically still the same.

    Tambala,what made you write this? Do you know anything about this incidence? We worked for Anuraddha during is elections in Kandy and we are disappointed with him and his notorious sons. We reliably learned that this heli crash led him to compromise the security of the country. We were told that the tigers let him go on some conditions favourable to them, resulting in his two sons giving one of their tiger sympathizers in Kandy a well known business person in Kandy contract to refurbish the Maligawa,which brought in the bombers. Knowing this, people in Kandy protested outside this business man’s shop, whereby one of his sons escorted him to the air port so that he could getaway to Singapore. Also the way the gosl lost a ship load of weapons, on route from East Africa, on information given the tigers intercepted this ship in mid sea. We must not forget his incident in Udatalawinna perhaps he was a opportunist.

    It was due to someones comments about fishermen trekking 70 odd kms to escape bloodthirsty tiger terrorists and what would be possible for LRRP.

  165. Barbaric LTTE supporters in TamilNadu (The land of the Tamils in case one wants a translation) beaten up Thushara Pieris, the director of the film "Prabhakaran".

    These bloody separtist terrorists are not only terrorists but cunning shameless foxes.

    I remember seeing a french film on Rupavahini and it put to the audience that Sri Lanka uses child labour (for it's garment factories particularly). Those who are in this country know that this is a bloody lie. These Tamil separtists manipulate, bribe, mislead everybody to sow their blatant lies.

    When someone makes a film showing the truth about them after thirty years of the conflict they can't take it and like bloody cowardly ways they use to subjugate the common Tamil man in the north and east they jump on this man and try to eat him alive.

    These people are running the country down like hell and the IC is buying their lies, but not for long as we patriots are countering this false propaganda. Some of them are lingering in Colombo and places nearby like kotahenna,awaiting another ethnic backlash so that they could go to some embassies to get their refugee visas and it’s up to the gosl officially counter this with the embassies concerned. There is a growing number of refugees settled here, for various reasons are not contributing as much, therefore they need fresh lot of people to earn and collect for them, though they have a formidable income collected every year that will never be used to elevate the suffering of their own, now lingering in their mythical eelam.Seperatist politics seems to be profitable for the worldwide terrorists brigades.Unfortunatly the politicians in the west are too slow to know this.

    We MUST immediately increase security to katunayake AREA not just the air base.

    snipers must be placed at high elevations; constant patrolling by armed forces and many "white vans" is needed; STF should be in charge of security not SLAF; hangers must be guarded by a dedicated group with RPGs; CCTVs should be used to monitor suspicious activity.

  169. jey ramen,

    it is a joke if LTTE follows an "eye for eye" war as SLDFs are already following it as per DBS Jeyaraj's article on LRRP in rivira.

    if both gorups follow this strategy, as they seem to be, who will die first???

    just think. it will surely be the LTTE which will be ANNIHILATED.

    are you talking from your arse when you say "live and let live"? who has the problem with the living, is it the SLDFs or the LTTE? during the CFA time LTTE killed hundreds when SLDFs didn't kill anyone. therefore peace brought corpses, not peace. in fact CFA brought MORE corpses than war has if you intelligently analyse it!!! you can't add LTTE casualties with SLA casualties and civilian casualties if you know algibra.

    the correct formula is,

    SLA casualties + civilian casualties - LTTE casualties - LTTE supporters' casualties.

    this formular gives a negative in 2008 as it is good. Unfortunately in 2002-2005 it gave a positive meaning that in 2002-05 more unnecessary deaths than now.

    julius ceaser said it is not how many killed but who was killed that matter.

    WAR WILL ONLY EXTERMINATE THE LOSER NOT THE WINNER AND MOST WARS HAD A WINNER.

    We don't want to live next to a megalomaniac killer. for a drop of a hat he will kill like he killed an innocent foreign minister DURING A BLOODY CEASEFIRE!

    'Peace' with this type of terrorists is a tragicomedy; it is funny and it is tragic.

    Peace means LAW AND ORDER not killing foreign ministers.

    PEACE IS JUST 23,000 LTTE CARCASSES AWAY!!!

    SLDFs must keep the pressure and keep the LTTE's head under water amidst its VIOLENT struggelling for life until all movement stops. then its head got to be severed just to be sure.

    i know this is pretty bad, but there is no other way.

    Don't worry. The setbacks that tomcat has mentioned don't apply much to the SLAF. It's not like LTTE has F15's or high tech air defence system is it? They'll only be facing those kurumbettis and they won't be a problem to the MIG's, not even if LTTE has them fitted with AA missiles.

    The reason that India doesn't use them for ground attack is because they got better planes for that. That doesn't mean we can't use it. And all the other planes mentioned are out of our reach. MIG-29 is one of the best planes we can get right now. Let's wait until they get here and start doing the job and then we can talk about whether they are good or not. Remember that some people said MIG-27 was no use to us, it's old and all sort of crap, but they are doing a great job now. (No offence to tomcat here, I agree with his statistics and all, but I don't think they'll be a problem to us)

  180. Defencenet,

    Lankadeepa reports that LTTE have taken a hostage in Vavuniya. Seems like they have taken one before as well, but he was rescued by the army... I didn't know about this, can you give more details?

    Let's hope they will be useful. After all, Sri Lankans are good at improvising, and perhaps the SLAF topguns will do something spectacular out with those babes.

  189. US concerned over Lanka's 'anti US axis'

    By Mendaka Abeysekera in New York
    The United States has clearly indicated that it has serious concerns
    over Sri Lankan Government's growing ties and diplomatic relations
    with anti-US axis, with countries like China, Iran and Russia.

    It is learnt that the US State Department has already displayed its
    displeasure over Sri Lanka's bilateral relationship with President
    Mahmud Ahmadinejad's administration.

    Despite, the Iranian President's scheduled state visit to Sri Lanka in
    April, the US State Department conveyed its displeasure to Colombo
    through diplomatic channels.

    The high ranking Sri Lankan Foreign Ministry officials in Colombo
    downplayed the importance of Sri Lanka's close ties with Iran as
    traditional bilateral diplomatic relations between two independent
    countries.

    "We learn that the US State Department is totally satisfied with Sri
    Lankan Government's diplomatic response," diplomatic sources said.

    During his state visit, President Ahmadinejad is expected to visit the
    water power plant project in Uma Oya and other projects developed with
    the help of Iranian grants.

    During President Mahinda Rajapaksa's visit to Tehran in November 2007,
    the Iranian Government agreed to grant a US$ 1.6 billion line of
    credit, primarily to help Sri Lanka buy Iranian oil.

    Iranian line of credit is the biggest single foreign grant, which Sri
    Lanka has received during the last few years.
    Rajapaksa discussed regional and international issues including
    Palestine and the expansion of bilateral ties between Tehran and
    Colombo, during his trip.

    He also met with Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah
    Seyyed Ali Khamenei and some high-ranking officials.
    China and Russia are Sri Lanka's main arm suppliers.

    According to Jane's Defence News, Sri Lanka has already advanced talks
    with Russia over the procurement of five new MiG-29 fighter aircraft.

    Last year, Chinese Government's assistance has grown to nearly US$1
    billion, eclipsing Sri Lanka's long-time biggest donor, Japan.

    Last week, The New York Times, discussed the new development with Sri
    Lanka's Foreign Secretary Palitha Kohona. He admitted that Sri Lanka's
    'traditional donors' namely, the United States, Canada and the
    European Union, had "receded into a very distant corner," to be
    replaced by countries in the East. Foreign Secretary Kohona gave three
    reasons: The new donors are neighbours; they are rich; and they
    conduct themselves differently. "Asians don't go around teaching each
    other how to behave," he said. "There are ways we deal with each other
    -- perhaps a quiet chat, but not wagging the finger."

    In January, Foreign Operations and Related Programs Appropriation Act
    2008, which was passed by the US Congress, banned the supply of
    military equipment and services to Sri Lanka.

    According to this Act, before any military supplies are made to Sri
    Lanka, the Secretary of State should certify that Colombo has improved
    its human rights record in certain specific areas.
