The HPR also have dual BMD functions given the design calls for monitoring targets with parabolic trajectories, i.e, Pak, PRC IRBM class missiles without MaRVs.

And this: http://drdo.gov.in/drdo/pub/nl/2012/NL_December_2012_web.pdf The target missile, a modified version of Prithvi, mimicking the enemy's ballistic missile, was launched from Launch Complex III, Chandipur. -- Ah, but what would they know.

Is it that you are dense or you choose to be obtuse? You post a image of a stock Army Prithvi and then claim that your argument holds merit for the Prithvi target? And copy paste googled up pictures of the well known Prithvi system? And you are of course privy to the internal schema of the...

FFS, DRDO developed a specific Prithvi derivative missile for the PAD /AAD mission called the target missile which was designed specifically to mimic representative missiles. In short, neither was it a stock Prithvi, nor did you do your research and your entire stuff about refuelling etc is...

Typo: Disagree. The PAD system is not meant for high mobility, which is the usual bugbear of liquid fuelled missiles. If quick induction is required given our strategic scenario & requirements, it actually makes more sense to rapidly field as many PDV equipped units as possible. The electronic...

A lot of needless confusion. In 2010, DRDO revealed its aims for a future integrated missile system to protect Indian territory. It would include a SAM network, a BMD system and future accretions. The SAMs we know are SRSAM, MR/LRSAM and a new one in development for long range requirements. The...

A nuclear missile exploding over Indian territory would be equally suicidal. Economics only goes so far. Like it or not, an interceptor missile wont come cheap. Disagree. The PAD system is not meant for high mobility, which is the usual bugbear of liquid fuelled missiles. If quick induction...

Sawheny is claiming to interpret what VKS said. I wouldnt touch Sawhney's interpretation with a barge pole. His record is that bad. What VKS & co have said in the past is this. A Phase 1 BMD can be deployed in place quickly leveraging the now proven PAD/AAD systems which in the case of PAD...

This is Pravin Sawheny you are talking about, a long time DRDO baiter, wrong on multiple counts when it comes to anything technology related, and lets just say, not a neutral person by any means when it comes to pushing certain POVs. Also, he is not a serving IA officer (thank goodness for...
