    DRDO begins work on indigenous MANPADS - MPDMS (Man-Portable Defensive Missile System)

    Wonder if you'll say that the CAMM is also over complicated. So what now, TATA should also make this instead of DRDO? Because according to you TATA can design AMCA better than DRDO, right? So why not give this to them as well? Man, you remind me of @Bhadra sir arguing against Shivalik grenade...

    Yeah its VSHORAD. I think DDR or Livefist might write an article about it. Or another idea could be to first write an article for IDRW under my take, and then use that to make the wikipedia page.

    DRDO MPDMS can also replace Mistral on HAL LCH and HAL Rudra, right? This missile alone will save us Billions in forex. VSHORADs for Army alone was slated to cost $1.5 Billion upfront, not including the future orders. On top of that now it'll be AAM for our heptrs, CIWS missile and maybe even...

    DRDO begins work on indigenous MANPADS - MPDMS (Man-Portable Defensive Missile System)

    It takes some bold marketing to claim what Starstreak and RBS claim. They claim un-jammable because its SACLOS missile. Ofcourse SACLOS makes it un-jammable. But then their missile is not fire and forget. The operator is stuck in place till the missile reaches target, maaking the operator...

    DRDO begins work on indigenous MANPADS - MPDMS (Man-Portable Defensive Missile System)

    Yeah, first test. But I really wonder why its not smokeless. Oh well, other than RBS 70 NG, no MANPAD is smokeless. But it shouldn't have been unattainable seeing as we have smokeless in Astra. That is true. RBS 70 is heavy at around 90 kg. But no, DRDO MPDMS seems like its going to be in the...

    DRDO begins work on indigenous MANPADS - MPDMS (Man-Portable Defensive Missile System)

    Bro 2 years from the time they made the comment saying it will take till 2045. Otherwise most of these new projects of DRDO started in 2017 only. But 5 years is also a rather short time considering that this missile has a dual band IIR seeker and also looking at past missile programs like the...

    Another pic courtesy @ClawReed787 nibba:- X-posting from DRDO thread:- This will also likely be a component of Navy's Indigenous CIWS to replace AK-630 and can also be used to create Tunguska SPAAG replacement instead of buying the Korean Biho that doesn't suit Army's requirements. Another...
