Hello Aspirants !!! As you all might be knowing that the Personal Interview In NDA SSB is very important for any Candidates’ Selection Process. Though most of the questions are known by the candidates which could be easily found on the Internet, still they can Face some Surprising questions from the Interviewing Officer for which they need to be fully prepared before themselves. As an NDA aspirant’s age is between 16.5 to 19.5 years they could find these questions surprising, but they did not need to worry as they can read those questions below and prepare themselves accordingly.
The motive behind asking these kinds of questions might not
directly link with the Candidate’s Selection but could be because that the
Interviewing Officer wants to know how the aspirant reacts in nervous
situations or whether he is lying or not. I have found some of the awkward
questions which were asked during the SSBs from NDA aspirants which are listed
below:
Do you Smoke?
Tell me the secret which you haven’t told anybody?
Do you have any Girlfriends or How many Girlfriends did you have in your life?
Do your parents know about your Girlfriend and if No then why didn’t you tell them about her?
Do you have any physical Relationship with your GirlFriend?
As you didn’t have any girlfriend in the past, Are you a Gay?
Do you watch Adult Movies? Do your parents know about It?
How often do you watch adult films?
What will you do if your parents will not allow you to marry your Girlfriend?
What will you do if your girlfriend marries your best friend?
I don’t see you fit for the armed forces, what do you say?
Do you Masturbate? How often do you Masturbate? Do Your parents know about it?
What is the importance/significance of having Girl Friend?
What is the Naughtiest thing you have done in your life?
What was your reason for your break-Up?
Do you have a crush on anyone in the present?
What do you like about your favorite movie Heroine?
Would you smoke or drink alcohol in the future?
Tell me 3-3 advantages and disadvantages of Masturbating.
What are the things you Like about your Crush/GirlFriend?
How do you spend time with your GirlFriend?
These were some of the Real-Time Questions. I would advise the
candidates that though there is very little possibility that these questions
would be asked from them but they should prepare them in advance.
Talking logically these questions could be answered by the candidates who positively see them and handle each question with proper reasons and assertions. Answering them logically would be the best way to handle them, and try to be true with your answers as much as you can as might the interviewer may find you cheating. Also, Prepare the cross questions from your answers. This was all about the topic.
Hello Aspirants !! As we all know that we have the World’s fourth strongest AirForce. Indian Airforce is not only responsible for securing Indian airspace and for conducting aerial warfare during the armed conflict but also contributes to the nation’s development in many ways.
Since its establishment on 8 October 1932, AirForce has seen
many advancements in its Technology and Planes. Today it holds a wide variety
of Planes, Fighter Jets, and Helicopters, but today we are going to talk about
one such exception planned by our Country which will not only make our AirForce
strong but will make the whole country proud.
Today we will talk about India’s 5th Generation Fighter Jet ‘AMCA’.
INTRODUCTION
This is also known as the HAL-DRDOs Advanced Medium Combat
Aircraft (AMCA). It will be produced jointly with the two most significant
organizations of India namely the Defence Research and Development Organisation
and Hindustan Aeronautics Limited. Under this program, we will be developing
India’s first-ever fifth and sixth-generation fighter aircraft. Though we have
been discussing it now, it is planned to start production by 2027 or 2028.
Firstly its prototype will be seen possibly in the year 2021 and the first
flight is expected in 2024 or 2025.
DESIGN
AMCA is designed as a single-seat, twin-engine, stealth
all-weather multi-role fighter aircraft. A study on AMCA and the preliminary
design stage have been completed, and the project entered the detailed design
phase in February 2019. A CAD model of the aircraft was shown at Aero India
2019.
The AMCA is a multirole fighter aircraft, with shoulder-mounted
diamond-shaped trapezoidal wings, which helps to reduce drag at transonic
speeds. Flight control surfaces consist of leading and trailing-edge flaps,
ailerons, rudders on the canted vertical stabilizers, and all-moving
tailplanes; these surfaces also serve as Air brakes.
The cockpit has a single-seat configuration which is placed
high, near the air intakes and wings of the aircraft which will provide good
visibility to the pilot. The aircraft has a tricycle landing gear configuration
with a nose landing gear leg and two main landing gear legs. The weapons bay is
placed on the underside of the fuselage between the nose and main landing gear.
It produces a very small radar cross-section. The flight control
surfaces are controlled by a central management computer system. Raising the
wing flaps and ailerons on one side and lowering them on the other side will
provide a roll.
AMCA IMPORTANCE FOR OUR
COUNTRY
As our country does not have any 5th generation Aircraft with
us, so this will surely be a great Add on to that.
In addition to this AMCA will perform Air superiority, Ground
Attack, Bombing, Intercepting, strike, and other types of roles.
As we will be manufacturing it under India only, therefore we
will not have any design boundations on it from another country.
It can also enhance our economy as when other countries would
buy it from us, we will get a good profit on behalf of that.
It will complement HAL Tejas, the Su-30MKI, and Rafale in the
air force service and Mikoyan MiG-29K in the naval service Thus making them
more powerful. The AMCA is intended to replace the SEPECAT Jaguar, Dassault
Mirage 2000, and Mikoyan MiG-29 in the Indian Air Force.
An AMCA Mark-2 variant is also planned which will come up with
certain sixth-generation characteristics and is expected to be produced in
greater numbers. It is also supposed to have indigenously designed and built
engines.

fact that our country India has the 4th largest army in the world. Our Indian
army holds a lot of potential in it, whether it is out saving our borders or
