RE:So much to boast ....right?

Why is shooting a satellite such a great achievement from India's point of view? Surely improving our border reconissance or terrorist camp surveillance ability is more important than shooting spy satellites?

You may have heard of the Predator aircraft that has been responsible for eliminating a number of terrorists. Well that is also a remote controlled pilotless aircraft.

In short, this is a good achievement, not to be mocked. Although a flight time of 30-35 minutes does feel awfully short - I suspect it will be improved in future versions.
