LOL. What's the point in spending billions on sophisticated fighter aircraft, radars, UAVs etc if they are useless against takaranm toy planes? Well except that a few politicians and high ranking military men became very rich overnight.


you can ask russia how they become a super power without being able to detect the stealth bombers from USA.

air force informed the navy about the takaran planes just 3 minutes before the dropping of the bombs.


So, Navy was expecting LTTE aircrafts and was ready with anti-aircraft guns? Even expected and prepared, LTTE aircrafts escaped. He he...

We Tamils should be REALLY proud of the REALLY brave brothers and sisters of the LTTE.. especially since they are becoming REALLY SCARCE these days.

How long do you think ?? 10 weeks ? or 10 years ??


Don't worry about the numbers but the power of will and determination is going to determine the outcome of this war. The Sinhala forces always have been out numbered the LTTE. Did it stop them from over running of multiple army camps in one day before?

When the Tamils took up the arms to defend their Homeland, they knew very well that the Sinhalese have a bigger army than the Tamils. It didn t stop them from waging war against the Sinhala Buddhist chauvinism.

The target was the jetliner transporting SLDF personnel


Rasiah Ilanthirayan told UpulJ what the target was before the attack.

Excellent bit of journalism, that. Well done fella.

According to tamilnut only one explosion which means only one bomb exploded.

Some residents said they heard an explosion from the Trincomalee harbor side after an object moved over the harbor by air. Thereafter Sri Lankan forces had started firing towards the sky targeting the object.

Navy was preparing to attack when the bombs fell. they started attacking the takaran planes and due to heavy ground fire the planes turned back without dropping other bombs.
