@porky_kicker posted it on his twitter profile, no description. Any idea on what it is?
Rudram that can glide? So even higher range? 😆

Could be. Once missile's rocket motor burns out and it starts to decelerate the wings pop out to give it some additional range. But I think it'll be possible only in the subsonic regime, given the shape of the wings. This weapon might be used to hit moving emitters since the wings will help in changing glide path.

It’s already posted on the Kaveri thread by someone else, but very few visit that thread so I’m posting it here too. Reach Defence is the same page which broke the Swift development and pictures first so he seems to have decent connections.
Looks like the ground tests are going very smoothly. They fixed the reheat oscillations in March, must have been ground testing the modifications since then. Would be quite awesome if we get some good news for 75th Independence Day.

Powered loitering munition,most probably for anti radiation role
The nose has 4 receiver and one active radar,That can pinpoint the target radar and then jam it before jumping on it,basically the seeker of NGARM

It looks more like those mini dragon fly drones. What exactly advantages these bring anyway? You can create smaller drones based on the traditional design.

We have drones like these,

Smaller, seem more balanced and apply some reflective panels on the body that they just reflect few percentages of the light passed on them and you have got the perfect camo considering its size.

Unless there's some advantage related to power usage these don't make sense.

The technical term would be Ornithopter am I right
