Agni V Missile

I hope we develop ICBM's soon.

I see a lot of people commenting on blast radius and fireballs and what not but no comments on radiation at all, make no mistake gentlemen the fireball is not the big culprit when it comes to killing people in a nuclear explosion(though it is the most immediate) the big killer is the humble invisible"gamma ray, this radiation will go through most regular thickness walls(concrete or otherwise) to cause immense destruction to organic tissue..this can be achieved much more cheaply with a small bomb than with a big one.
Also Nuclear weapons are expensive the process of enriching uranium to a weapons grade level is prohibitively expensive and hence it makes sense to spread out the material into smaller lots and have a large number of widely dispersed small nukes instead of having a few large bombs.

Then it is better to develop a new technology that increases the range of BRAHMOS. That is enough......

Anyways more than the range the actual thing i am interested is (and i've said this numerous times before) is the cansisterised road mobile launch. does anyone here have an idea whether we are going to be testing the cansisterised production version of the A5 or is this going to be one of those launches of a regular test launchpad?

Another distinctive feature is its 'canisterisation'. Hermetically sealed into an airtight canister that is mounted on a flatbed truck, the missile can be easily transported and fired quickly, by hydraulically raising the canister into the vertical firing position. Made from high-strength maraging steel, the canister must absorb enormous stresses during firing, when a thrust of 300-400 tonnes is generated to eject the 50-tonne missile The canister also provides a hermitically sealed atmosphere, in which the missile is stored safely for years.

The Brahmos is limited in range due to the extreme speed at which it's engines burn through it's on board fuel in order to achieve supersonic speed, otherwise both is size and fuel capacity the Brahmos is more than comparable to an American Tomahawk or any other long range cruise missile. If we wanted to redesign the Brahmos to maintain both extreme velocity and have a long range as well, we would end up with a monster that would be ridiculously heavy as well as extremely big.

The thing is will this first test be a cansisterised launch or not?

Nope A 2 has been tested in this fashion already

A2 cansisterised? when did that happen?

 

[Yusuf]

A2 cansisterised? when did that happen?

The failed test of A2P i think.

Sorry I guess I mixed up between rail launch and canister

 

[nrj]

Oh dear! This looks to be a chest thumping test. Every type of military grade satellite out there will be watching out for any heat signature from Orissa now. Please tell them we've diwali in between else they'll misunderstand diwali rockets for A5.

 

[Yusuf]

nrj, we anyways have to inform about a test so that there is no accidental trigger of nuke war..So they will know anyways. How do you think all tests are monitored and so much info is available about all missile systems?

yusuf do USA, Russia and China give us info about their missile launches ???

 

[Yusuf]

yusuf do USA, Russia and China give us info about their missile launches ???

We have an agreement with Pak.. US and Russia have theirs.. I am sure other countries do have bilateral treaties for the same.
BALLISTIC MISSILE LAUNCH NOTIFICATION AGREEMENT

 

[sayareakd]

that is the problem we dont have any treaty with USA, Russia or china still we inform them.

 

[Yusuf]

that is the problem we dont have any treaty with USA, Russia or china still we inform them.

I dont know if we inform the US, but we do inform our neighbors.

 

[LETHALFORCE]

Do we have to give exact location and date of tests or just date?? I know Pakistan has gave vague locations in the past.

 

[Pintu]

The failed test of A2P i think.

No Y/B, here's the image of A2P:

just like this "we are going to make test within next two days" that is all. 24 hours before the test, this is because some time weather is not good therefore 48 hours time window. This is only for ballistic missile therefore cruise missile does not need any prior notification.

in war enemy will not see solider or civilian, if you want to win then you have to kill both

we need that lethal weapon who can destroy the maximum

agni5 should be induct asap we dont have much more time

war and peace are tow side of coins so if you want to live with peace then you should be ready for war
