As ordinary citizens why do we even bother with all these :confused1:

When the time comes morons at the top will surely hesitate to retaliate , few million Hindus are easily expendable for a small chance to win Nobel peace prize .

Yes I too have the same feeling

But still why did they classify it as a naval system. Misinformation maybe

Or maybe for submerged pontoons :biggrin2:
Not a bad idea either for tests or otherwise isn't it ?


Why make things easier for the enemy ?

Many don't know prahaar and Shaurya are in active service , though in limited nos.

Newer version of prahaar was asked by army because they wanted a higher specific impulse propallent ( higher velocity ) plus other changes after limited operational usage during exercises.
Thats my video.........dont ask about immovable submarines and silos......:biggrin2:

Researchers from IIT Kanpur have developed cutting-edge metamaterials that will be of great importance in developing our country’s defence capabilities. Profs. Anantha Ramakrishnan, Department of Physics; J Ramkumar, Department of Mechanical Engineering and Kumar Vaibhav Srivastava, Department of Electrical Engineering have developed transparent RADAR absorbent material, the first in the world to cover all RADAR frequencies as well as textile-based material, non-detectable by RADAR, which can be used in uniforms for soldiers as well as skirtings for war machines.
They have also developed India’s first infrared absorbent metamaterial, meant to prevent hot objects from emitting infrared radiation, making them virtually undetectable at night. These will be crucial for keeping our defence systems and soldiers safe from attacks at night.

The project was commissioned by DRDO
They gave gave specifications which had to be achieved by the IIT team , which they did.

All that remains is to convert the lab prototypes into military grade pre production models

This is how core technologies are first established at labs and then engineered into military grade products

Too many pictures of P17A exists but none shows the definitive final look

This one does

Note the Kolkata type mast on P17A

Plus the new survey ship
