We are proud to share that #ATAGS has successfully completed trials in the highest altitude with harshest conditions. This would not have been possible without our partners. We express our gratitude to #DRDO for guidance and faith in manifesting this achievement into reality.

Which one bro , if it is about tender of UTTAM then for me not over informative . But if the specifications are real then they should downplayed.

This one ,@flanker99 quoted here ,it says bandwidth of utaam is just 1ghz .

Thoughts About the New Uttam AESA RADAR- MK1A (and some other stuff)

Uttam AESA radar upgraded 992 TRM modules, range, RCS, Mk1A

Meanwhile , there isn't any news on Nirbhay test .

SFF jump video... @AVINASH4061 sir did they deploye their parachute too soon

I‘ve written this answer on the SF thread , lack of easy access of transport aircrafts to SF leading to less amount training time for them as they are at the mercy of the IAF in that regard.
It was of my opinion of one of the reasons for this other tha turf war and tussels was mainly the shortage of C17 size aircraft leading to the usage of C130J aircraft mainly meant for SF use(ones with EO Pod and midair refuelling capabilities and other additional equipment) to make up for this shortage.
Now we know that C17 production line has shut down and second hand opportunities are rare, no other aircraft in production exists presently that can carry T90 tanks other than Chinese Y 20 aircraft which they built with Ukrainian help.
Isn’t it prudent for HAL to partner with companies like Embraer and Antonov who’d possibly be willing to help design an aircraft about the Y 20 class to relieve the C17 from ferrying t 90s alone and augment the logistics capabilities of the IAF.
Are HAL projects like RTA and NALs SARAS really required over a strategic lifter like that could replace the IL 76 and augment C17?
There could be an export market too with countries wanting to replace IL 76 fleets or want an aircraft in between the capacity of A400 and C17 depending on which compamy helps us.

3 possibilities

1.Nirbhay test was a failure.
2.Something else was tested which DRDO doesn't want to reveal(but NOTAM was clearly of Nirbhay,what else it could be)
3.They would test more Nirbhay and combined press release.

Yes thinking about the same. There was a project to increase the 122 mm rocket range from 25-30 km to 45 km.

Had never heard that they wanted to increase Pinaka 1 from 39 km to 45 km.
Although improved propellant might increase the range from 39 to 45 km.

But increasing the range of 122 mm rocket was a major project.

Now question is that does the improved 122mm rocket have Pinka style launcher?
