NASAMS missile deal was just a newspaper story. Not at all confirmed.Earlier it was patriot PAC 3(during UPA regime) and then it was NASAMS.

prithvi based target missile is good in terms of speed and manuverability and is the ideal choice to mimic 2000km class ballistic target.but for phase 2 of our bmd programme i think we need a agni1/k-15 based missile to mimic 5000km targe-it will have superior speed and manuverability than...

bmd is definately capable of defeating cruise missile threats in terms of speed and manuverability though in terms of detection it will require other air force assets like awacs,uav,low level radars satellite recon etc.the present programme is to build a credible bmd system mainly to intercept...

regarding bmd our home grown effort is a very well executed project. but well for protection against conventional atillery and rockets which pakis and chinese possess i think drdo should develop something like iron dome and david sling.

i seriously think we can modify agni4 for mid-course interception of icbm's though we need very long range radars of 6000km detection range

won't the agni 4 rising to a height of 900km will give us some good expertise into midcourse interception needed to shoot down icbm's and also asat?

the agni 4 went to a height of 900km .why can't it be used as bmd interceptor system?

why can't prahaar launcher carry more missiles.i think it can easily carry 12 prahhars.

what will be the range of the 150km and the later 300km altitude interceptor?

@sayareakd the s-400 is definately for sale.it is marketed by the russians in many defence expos around the world and many country like saudi-arabia,greece are showing interest in it.but the main problem is the slow pace of manufacture of s-400 even the russians are not inducting in largge...

even though parameters of s-400 and pac-3 do not match and hence they are not exactly comparable,but s-400 is a much much better sam than pac-3.a single s-400 system can do more that what the whole multi layered bmd of US cannot (comprising of pac-3,aegis,thaadetc).the s-400 can also shootdown...

got a very intersting old article on the aad launcher from the net: LAUNCHING PLATFORMS FOR AAD PROGRAMME A mobile multi-role launching platform based on state-of-the-art all electric servodrive technology incorporating low voltage, high performance DC servomotors and PWM drive has been...

can anyone clarify that in is india's bmd capable of handling mirvs. also is there any attempt to develop multiple kill vehicle to destroy mirvs(as the raytheon mirv-r project) in the phase 2 of bmd. also is there any effort by drdo to turn the bmd into a true air defense system capable of...

there is certainly harm in buying something which can be made indigeniously by drdo.no one knows how many more eum,cismoa like deals we have to sign before getting the javelin(which would definately come as an inferior product than the ones used by the us troops).plus uncle sam may even provide...

the nag mounted on a namica(modified bmp 2 carrier) is much better than a man portable javelin.the seeker is much better in nag, it has a greater manueverability and a heavier tandem warhead and a greater range(about 4 km) than the javelin. plus the helina comes with a lock on after launch...

how effective is india's bmd against mirv warheads?

first of all there is a mistake in your article -india did not buy the long range green pine radar from israel-which is a jv between israel and us.us would have blocked its sale to india after 1998 pokhran testing.so india's drdo persuued a separate jv with israel to produce a separate long...
