Tapas gone and now we will have a brand new project with some structural modifications to get the funding. Both Babus and PSUs know how to play with each other. In the meantime, we will eventually have dozens of Israeli and American drones, when even country like Turkey have world class drones!!

I am not a guy who likes conspiracy theories
But timing of this when recently announced more tests for tapas doesn't seem normal
Sabotage?

Congratulations,

Since TAPAS was under user trial Hence UN Generals are keeping their record straight. They are champion in crashing brand new machine.

The only thing needs to be checked here whether this crash caused by IA or IAF??
Wouldn't it be DRDO personnel managing the maintenance and repair during user trials.

DRDO can maintain on ground but Unfortunately UAV has fallen from sky as UN Generals are taking trials. I don't think so DRDO can maintain or repair during mid flight.

Or you mean to say, this is a new requirement from UN Generals that UAV should be repairable during mid flight??

If you read carefully, Crash happened in Chitradurga near trials site ( Chalakere ).
HAL has nothing to do with it.

Ya, you might be currect that this could be prototype rather than LSP.

What can UN generals do which can cause it to go down from mid air ?

Carrom board warriors are stationed at Chalakere so possibly they were checking their skills.
Possibly ADE has been giving initial pilot training on prototype at Chalakere.

If UN generals can run Arjun tank 400km in reverse gear till it’s engine burn then there is nothing could surprise me about UN generals.

PSU fanboys are going to any lengths to whitewash the mistakes of incompetent organizations and trying to shift blame to Armed Forces.


The crash happened when it was in the hands of DRDO, not the Armed Forces. Until the aircraft is handed over to Armed Forces, everything from flying to maintenance is taken care by DRDO only.
