Which engineering branch should I choose among aerospace engineering & mechanical engineering?
I would love to design missiles, fighter jets and also I want to get into research. Which engineering branch should I chose in order to flourish out? Also, why aerospace engineers can't work in foreign countries? Can you give me a broader explanation of both the fields & helm me in choosing one?

Hi,
How are you?
Well, each and every branch in engineering is good, we can't compare them. Just there are a few differences like mechanical, electrical and civil are evergreen branches but CS, IT and EC have high placement records.
Other than this, you may also take chemical, metallurgy, mechatronics, etc.
So, choose a suitable branch.
Go for it.
Thank you and keep asking! -
It is based on your interests. You can go for B.Tech aerospace/ aeronautical followed by MS or M.Tech. Aerospace/ aeronautical engineering are niche branch of engineering with comparatively limited career opportunities in comparison to mechanical engineering.
Mechanical Engineers are employed by all type of industries. The syllabus of aeronautical and mechanical engineering overlap by up to 80%. If you still not sure about your interests, you can do mechanical engineering and then do M.Tech or MS in aeronautical engineering.
