I posted pic of the same radar 1/2 months back

Anyways it's seems there are multiple types of long range radars in operations / development other than LRTR radars.

Interestingly drdo calls all of them LRTR even though the form factors are different.

The drdo LRTR above does not have vertical ridges on the radar face as seen below on another pic of drdo LRTR

The drdo LRTRs below are totally different

View attachment 40880

This one is squarish not rectangular

View attachment 40881

This one has 3 different panels

So, are they different versions of the same radar or different radars?
Are all these integrated with the command and control grid the same way?

Afghanit is the best way forward for APS.

Project sanctioned in 2014
First test(subsystem) - Jun-2017
Next tests : Feb 2019, Aug 2019, Dec 2019.
=========
Quick Reaction Surface to Air Missile System developed by DRDO successfully flight tested today at 1145hrs from Integrated Test Range,Chandipur.The missile was flight tested with full configuration in deployment mode intercepting the target in mid air, meeting mission objectives.

So.. many tests of QRSAM... Any Army / Air force order on offer..?

Apparently induction in 2021..................................

Quick Reaction Surface to Air Missile #QRSAM Test Fired at the Intermediate Test Range, Chandipur. The missile is fully ready for Operational Service, and will be inducted by 2021

XRSAM - long range surface to air missile

Range against maneuvering aircrafts - 250 km eg fighters , stealth aircrafts , drones etc.

Range against slow moving targets - 350 km eg AWACS , tankers , transport aircrafts etc.

Range against AShMs etc - 250 km

Range against ballistic missiles - 350 km

No idea , no official info available

 

[porky_kicker]

Incase anybody interested in making CAD models of XRSAM

You sure the document you accessed explicitly calls it "XR-SAM"? Or you just assumed it?

The blue coloured rear section of XRSAM booster is using modified AAD rear section along with the close coupled moving fins and TVC vanes

 

[NeXoft007]

Hey @porky_kicker
Let's play a game on who gets it right...

Since you claimed the missile section of XR-SAM is Astra Mk. 2. I will call it Akash-NG, having a range of 150km after being mated with booster, similar to Barak 8ER. I always claimed Barak 8ER was scrapped in favor of Akash-NG with booster.

Isn't astra mk-2 an air breathing engine?
As of now I think astra mk-2 will be developed on SFDR,but in picture no duct is there.

Russia too is testing hypersonic Missile. Will ours be better than that of Russia?

 

[Bleh]

Is there much of a difference between the two..........

And what are they exactly? It's a bit confusing to me. Long-range Akash-NG will still be used for static area-defence like Akash?

Akash NG is thick :hippo:...................
