Bad news for China and Russia, this Brahmastra by US will be more effective than Rafale and F-35, name of project is..., its cost will be..
The current situation in the world has forced many countries to strengthen their defense systems. From US to Europe, Africa and Asia, there is a race to develop weapons and defense systems with cutting edge technology. Countries of the world that cannot make weapons on their own are importing them. The Defense Budget has also been huge increased in it. Even the most powerful country on earth, US, is busy upgrading its defense system.
What is Golden Dome?
Donald Trump's government has announced to develop an ultra modern air defense system at a cost of $ 175 billion. This project has been named Golden Dome. US has taken this decision in view of the potential threat from China and Russia. America already has air defense systems like THAAD and Patriot. Russia has also developed air defense system like S-400 and S-500 has been developed. It is said that the S-500 defense system is so powerful that it can detect and intercept even hypersonic missiles and destroy them.
India mainly depends on the Russian S-400 for the air defense system. However, during Operation Sindoor, the indigenous Akash missile defense system also showed its strength and completely foiled Pakistan's drone and missile attack. India is now developing an even more powerful missile defense system, which will not be easy for the enemies to overcome.
In fact, Pakistan is situated on India's western border and China is situated on its northern border. The entire world is aware of the friendship between China and Pakistan, which uses terrorism as a state policy.
The way China shared information related to the live location and movement of critical assets of the Indian Armed Forces with Pakistan during the war, the danger present on both the borders can be well understood from this. India is engaged in dealing with this. The work of upgrading the Army, Navy and Air Force is in full swing. While fighter jets equipped with indigenous technology are being developed to make the Air Force more powerful, the purchase of fifth generation fighter aircraft is also being considered in view of the current needs. Apart from this, new and more powerful weapon systems are being continuously included in the attack missile unit.
Brahmos Cruise Missile
The whole world saw its power during Operation Sindoor. It is now being made more powerful in terms of range and payload. Apart from this, India's security research agencies are also engaged in developing ultra modern hypersonic missiles. Amidst all this, arrangements are also being made to deal with the increasing threat of high-speed missile attacks.

Company advised by Trump sons said it hoped to benefit from fed money, then took it back
A public document filed by a company that just hired President Donald Trump's two oldest sons as advisers included a sentence early Monday that said it hoped to benefit from grants and other incentives from the federal government, which their father happens to lead. But when The Associated Press asked the Trump family business about the apparent conflict of interest, the document was revised and the line taken out. Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. are getting 'founder shares' worth millions of dollars in New America Acquisition 1 Corp., a company with no operating business that hopes to fill that hole by purchasing an American company that can play 'a meaningful role in revitalizing domestic manufacturing,' according to the filing. The president has geared his trade policy toward boosting manufacturing in the U.S. The original version of the securities filing said the target company should be 'well positioned' to tap federal or state government incentives. That reference was taken out of the revised version. The Trump Organization didn't reply to a question about whether New America still planned to benefit from government programs or why the line was cut. But the outside law firm Paul Hastings that helped prepare the document sent an email to AP saying it was 'mistake' made by 'scriveners,' an old term for transcribers of legal papers. Kathleen Clark, an expert in government ethics, said any excuses are too late because the Trumps had already tipped their hand. 'They just deleted the language. They haven't committed not to do what they said earlier today they were planning to do,' said the Washington University law professor and Trump critic. 'It's an attempt to exploit public office for private profit.' New America is what's know as a special purpose acquisition company, or SPAC. It's a publicly traded company that exists solely to use its funds to acquire another company and take the target public. New America plans to raise money by selling new stock on the New York Stock Exchange at $10 a share. That will hand the two Trump sons a potential total of $50 million in paper wealth the moment the stock begins trading on the first day. The company hopes to sell enough shares to raise $300 million, which it then plans to use buying a yet unidentified manufacturer. A press release issued by New America saying it was focused on 'American values and priorities.' It made no mention of the aim to get government incentives. The filing to New America's potential new investors to the Securities and Exchange Commission was explicit about what it was looking for in a target company. It said, among other things, it wanted a company that can ride 'public policy tailwinds' by benefiting from federal or state 'grants, tax credits, government contracts or preferential procurement programs.'

The Indian stock market benchmark indices, Sensex and Nifty 50, are likely to open on a cautious note today amid US President Donald Trump's higher tariffs threat, despite upbeat global market cues. The trends on Gift Nifty also indicate a tepid start for the Indian benchmark index. The Gift Nifty was trading around 24,757 level, a discount of nearly 37 points from the Nifty futures' previous close. On Monday, the domestic equity market ended higher, with the Nifty 50 closing above 24,700 level. The Sensex rallied 418.81 points, or 0.52 per cent, to close at 81,018.72, while the Nifty 50 settled 157.40 points, or 0.64 per cent, higher at 24,722.75. According to Shrikant Chouhan, Head Equity Research at Kotak Securities, the market in the short term is 'weak, but oversold', adding that 'a sharp technical bounce back is not ruled out from the current levels. For day traders, 80,600 and 80,500 would act as key support zones for Sensex, while 81,500 - 81,800 could be the key resistance areas for the bulls.' He however felt that below 80,500, 'the sentiment could change, and traders may prefer to exit their long positions'. Disclaimer: This story is for educational purposes only.

PM Narendra Modi to address crucial NDA meeting ahead of V-P polls and amid Parliament logjam today
Prime Minister Narendra Modi will address the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) parliamentary party meeting today. This get-together of the ruling alliance's MPs is being held after a considerable gap, news agency PTI said. The NDA meeting, which Narendra Modi will chair, will take place a couple of days before nominations for the vice president's election begin on 7 August. The NDA must announce its candidate, whose election will be a certainty due to the alliance's majority in the electoral college, by 21 August, the last date of nomination filing and the Monsoon Session of Parliament. The meeting also comes in the middle of a session which has been all but a washout so far, except for a two-day discussion on the Pahalgam attack and Operation Sindoor, due to a united Opposition's ceaseless protest against the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Bihar by the Election Commission. PM Modi is expected to speak on a host of current issues as the Opposition has been raising the heat over the poll body's alleged partisan conduct favouring the government, and the Pahalgam terror attack and Operation Sindoor. The prime minister is also likely to be felicitated by the parliamentary party over his government's military response to the terror strike. The electoral college for the vice president poll includes MPs of the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha, and its current strength is 782. If the Opposition also names a candidate, a distinct possibility, then the poll is scheduled to be held on 9 September. Sources said Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju and a few BJP national general secretaries are likely to be coordinating with allies for the vice presidential poll. Since the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, when the BJP lost its majority but comfortably crossed the halfway mark with allies, the sessional meeting of the party's MPs was expanded to include its allies. PM Modi had addressed the first such meeting on July 2. However, no meeting has been held in the last few sessions. Before the last national elections, he addressed the weekly meetings of the BJP parliamentary party, which has now expanded to include party allies such as the TDP, JD(U), and LJP (Ram Vilas). The meeting is attended by MPs of the ruling alliance, and PM Modi often discusses a wide range of political and governance issues and, at times, touches on the government's agenda in Parliament. He often offers the MPs talking points to be raised in public, especially in their constituencies.
