Indian industry to produce two more entire rockets


3-4 minutes


The Department of Space (DoS) plans to realise entirely-built rockets -- GSLV-Mk III and SSLV -- from Indian industry partners, in addition to PSLV, according to a top official of its commercial arm NSIL.
NSIL (NewSpace India Limited) has received three bids -- HAL-L&T, BEL-Adani-BEML, and BHEL, in response to the request for proposal (RFP) floated by it for end-to-end production of PSLV (Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle)

Another good news. Is 1 cr pricing per missile a bit steep?

While the cost estimate was yet to be done, each missile was expected to cost under ₹1 crore, and around 500 missiles and 40 launchers would be required initially, he added.
at one crore per piece, it is in the same price bracket as hellfire.

pentagon buys around 10000-15000 hellfire annually.
