 As I was, as I was getting in bed last night in this really weird voice. She says to me, you're, huh? I didn't want you to talk about you going into bed, but go on. Yeah, no. And then, and then, and then she said, she said, you're drunk. And I said, how do you know? Uh, and she said, because you live next door. Hey, welcome back to our stupid rx of Corbin. I'm Rick. You can follow us on Instagram, Twitter for more juicy content. Thank you to everybody's for what's on Patreon, follow us for official Twitter account, subscribe and hit that. What? The like button. Yep. Uh, because the clitoris of the algorithm. Kind of true. Uh, tell me this doesn't look like Jaby. Wait, where? What? What are you showing me here? Oh, oh, that actually does look quite a bit like Jaby. I don't know who that is. You guys want a part of the Tamil cards? I don't know who that is. I don't, I don't recognize them, but it kind of looks like Jaby a little bit. Doesn't look like Jaby. Uh, today, um, they just saw it was on my floor and I was like, I don't know why I have a Jaby card here. Uh, did it come up for you? The video? Did it switch? It always comes up for me. I doubt that. I don't lie. Did the video come up for you? Oh, yeah. Is it say something about how to say hi? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, so this is a video, a new video that came out a month ago on this channel. It's a how Tejas will change the game for IAF, which is Indian Air Force. Um, and it's, I think of a new fighter jet for them. It's called the Tejas. Okay. And I know a while ago, we never reacted to it, but I saw on Twitter, the, the PM like actually rode in it. Like he rode in the back of, uh, of the Teja. Like obviously the natural pilot was flying it, but he rode in the back of it, which is pretty cool. Um, have you ever, uh, obviously you've never flown or have you ever been in one though? Like a, an actual fighter jet? I've, I've been outside of them and touched them, but I've never sat in one, nor been up in the air in one. I would love that. I obviously have never been a, I think very few people get that, that privilege. Yeah. You basically have to be either be in the Air Force and a select for you or be the prime minister of India. Right. For Tom Cruise. Yeah. Yeah. But I've, I've sat inside a fighter jet. It was at a air shows before because it was my dad's military. So I've been to a lot and he knows a lot of people. So I've been able to see in the air shows. I've been able to sit in them, older ones at least probably. Um, but apparently the Tejas is one of India's newest, uh, fighter jets. And I think it's something they produce as well. So I think it's, it's their product. Um, and so it's probably like their movies. It probably costs significantly less to make and, uh, you know, and all that kind of stuff because obviously what, what, uh, the United States spends on their military and what everybody else in the world spends on the military is famously insanely different. Um, we spend way too much on our military, everybody, uh, in case that's not known. I think we spend more than like the next five to nine countries combined, I think is what is something that was right. Yeah. And it's always funny to me that whenever the United States needs money for something militarily, it's just an instantaneous congressional approval and money just appears, but you need money for things like infrastructure or health care homeless. Forget it. Yeah, we spend a, we spend some, some trillions of dollars every year on the military and then we're like, Hey, can we have some health care and like, we can't afford that. Come on. It's think Corbin, what's more profitable war or health care? Well, for the government war, obviously, you make more money helping the homeless or do you make more money bombing poor people? Yeah. Well, you know, that sounds like freedom to me. Am I right? Brother. Anyways, so this is about obviously one of their new fighter jets. It's a little, it's called a little short film. This is cool. So ready. I saw Tejas and my, my thought was how the heck he's from Texas. So if you reference my reference point after nine and a half years in San Antonio, has that going to help them in the Indian Air Force, Bob? There's very famous Tejas thing in Texas, everybody. So if you're from Texas, shout out to you. Here we go. Tejas, the game changers. Long ago, amidst the echoes of his today, a resounding truth emerged. What a great voice. You cannot win a war with air force alone, but you are sure to lose it without one. Imagine a force that transcends boundaries, not merely safeguarding airspace, but possessing the relentless prowess to strike fiercely into the heart of adversaries. Enter the realm of fighter jets, the Vanguard, the pivotal tool shaping the destiny of air forces worldwide. Today, within the Indian Air Force's formidable fleet, reside Russian stalwarts like the Sukhoi 30MKI, the venerable MiG-21 and MiG-29, alongside the British Jaguars and the French Mirage 2000 and Rafael Fighters. Yet, amid this ensemble stands a beacon of distinction, the homegrown warrior, HAL Tejas. Tejas is just an aircraft. It's the linchpin destined to become the very backbone of the IAF for decades to come. It's not only the present, but also the visionary architect of our aerial dominion in one resounding word. Tejas is a game changer for the IAF. Here's why. Firstly, it's price time. Tejas, an advanced 4 to 4.5 generation multi-role aircraft, defies the norms of cost, standing substantially more affordable than its foreign counterparts. That makes sense. Tejas, Mach 1, emerges at a mere 30 million dollars. Well, the more advanced, Mach 1-E, equipped with cutting-edge ISA radar and myriad improvements, stand at an estimated 42 million dollars fly away, 30 to 50 percent cheaper than similarly equipped foreign aircraft. Consider the cost of ownership. Importing hundreds of foreign fighters not only burdens the immediate budget, but imposes an enduring weight in terms of life-cycle cost. The reliance on the original equipment manufacturers or subsystems incurred higher long-term expenses, subjecting the IAF to potential price hikes or even supply refusals in dire times. Safety becomes paramount. Tejas boasts an impeccable record, witnessing no crashes or major mishaps, since its inception, despite undertaking thousands of sorties and active service hours. Its high availability stands as a testament, exceptional serviceability and minimal turnaround time, ensure a fleet ever ready for immediate action, maintaining operational readiness at all times. The promise for modernization, its indigenous origin grants us the knowledge and autonomy to continuously enhance the aircraft's capabilities, integrating weapons and systems seamlessly without external dependencies or additional costs, the ease of replacing losses essential in any conflict scenario. Tejas facilitates a quicker replacement of lost aircraft, acknowledging the inevitability of losses during warfare. Reduce reliance. Tejas increasing indigenous content, significantly diminishes dependence on external suppliers, securing critical systems and components within the nation's grasp, ensuring operational autonomy. Yet, beyond its tactical prowess, lies a grander legacy. Tejas has catalyzed an entire aviation ecosystem, paving the way for an indigenous aviation industry. HAL's leadership integrates the final aircraft, while components sourced from public and private firms foster thriving industry, generating thousands of jobs and laying the foundation for future aerospace endeavors. In the skies, Tejas isn't just a fighter, it's a testament to India's soaring ambition, resilience, and a beacon illuminating a part towards self-reliance and aviation excellence. It's not just changing the game for the IEA, it's reshaping the very destiny of Indian aviation. Narration Ravi Kapoor. Have we heard him before? Because his voice sounded so familiar to me. Um, didn't it? Yeah, a little bit. Um, it makes the one on one. Obviously, I don't know a ton about planes outside of what everybody else does. I've seen like, obviously, the insane ones they have now. So I don't know if this is like the ones that the United States has that can literally fly horizontally, like they can just, it's kind of insane what they can do now. But it makes sense that India would be producing their own things. One, you have, in terms of brain power, you have literally some of the smartest people on the planet that most of the rest of the world tries to import to there, obviously, with engineering the amount that India produces engineers, obviously. So the brain powers there, the cheap manpower is also there. So it kind of just, it makes sense that they would produce stuff like this, how it holds up to everything else. I don't know. Yeah, it was a nice video. I would have loved to have known a little bit more about its specification, its payload and speed. It looks like it's a really zippy, short distance, very hard to, you know, as far as like, if you're getting into a firefight in the sky, that thing looks like it's quick and maneuverability is insane. I'd love them to just know, you know, its range, if it's predominantly specified for home defense or if it's for aircraft carrier to go out. And, you know, obviously, India's military is always and forever defense. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They are never the aggressors. So very, very cool. My favorite thing about that is seeing them rely on themselves for the creation of their own aircraft and military stuff. How many aircraft carriers does India have? Do you think? No clue. No idea. Yes. Seven. Two. Wow. That actually doesn't surprise me. I was being really optimistic when I jumped to that height. Well, we have, we have like 12? I'm like, oh, we might have more than that. I don't know. Yeah, I knew they'd have less than we do, but I didn't realize they would only have two. Now, wait a minute. Is that in their total arsenal or just home grown? India demonstrates naval strength with dual aircraft carrier exercise. India's two aircraft carriers. Well, yeah. So it looks like they have two aircraft carriers that doesn't include like non aircraft carriers like like naval ships and stuff like that. Right. Do they have submarines? Yeah, I'm sure. How many aircraft does USA have? How many underwater military bases? Eleven might be. Underwater? Yeah, anything militarily where there's actual not just submarines, but actual like places where they can be. Why would they need a military base down there? They can virtually military base from anywhere so that I don't see the point. Well, they can. It would be largely undetectable compared to any other place. Now, I've heard I've heard from an FBI, a former FBI agent that there are really kinds of things. Yeah. Wow. Yeah. Oh, there's probably so many different insane things out there. Right. Yeah. There's a lot of stuff we don't even know about for sure. I wonder also, is this something that they were able to incorporate in in fighter? I hope so. That'd be cool. But I don't know when fighter took place. It looks modern, but I don't know if it is modern. It is modern. And if this is like a new, new aircraft like came out this year, maybe not. So I hope so. Yeah. I'm looking forward. I'm looking forward to fighter because I don't. We've never seen an Indian Air Force movie, right? The Indian military movies. We've seen a lot of military films, but not one that's specific to that branch of the military. Well, no, not that had to. I think they were in the Air Force because I think was it in Virzara? Was SRK a Air Force pilot? Yeah, he was, right? Because he dropped down in the helicopter, right? I believe that is correct. Yeah, and then was it Air Force or was it a different one with Rithik and Laksha? Oh, Laksha. I thought that was Army. Is it Army? It's hard to tell because obviously every branch actually has like helicopters and things of that nature. Coast Guard has helicopters, Air Force, Army, they all got them. But obviously if it's a fighter jet, it'll obviously be the Air Force. Do you have any military in your family? Past generations, not current generation. Like your dad's generation or before that? No, my dad was 4F for Vietnam, which made him really happy. And my two uncles, my mom's brothers, they both served in Vietnam. My uncle Joey was a helicopter gunman in Vietnam. Oh, nice. And then my great-great-grand, well, my grandfather Vinigallo, he fought in Korea. My great-great-grandfather Vincenzo Cacacci fought in World War I and tried to enlist in World War II, but he was too old. So there's a lot of military service in my family, but nobody in the current generation. Yeah, me and my brother, my older brother, who's my full brother, Wes, destroyed like a military line. So my dad's military, his dad was military, his dad was military, his dad was military, and I think his dad was military as well. Wow. We just fucked it up. He's a musical theater major and I dropped out of college. Making him proud. Talk about being a rebel. Military, military, military, military, musical theater. I love it. The most useless degree on the planet. My no degree's more useful than his musical theater degree. Anyways, that was great. If there's other videos that are more informational about it or other things that we can react to, I know obviously Republic Day is coming up and so I'm guessing another, what is that parade called that they do the Hell March, right? Is that what it's called? Is that the actual name of it? I think so. I think they call it the Hell March that they do every year is coming up. So anyways, if there's other videos, let us know down below.
