DRDO, PSU and Private Defence Sector News

I am not saying that asat was nothing, but historically we have done things when push comes to the shove.

Idk for what we are waiting for, just we should test it as chinki threat is real. I saw the article given by @FalconZero, It will concern anyone, they(chinks) are able to control the sats in very fast and extremely accurate way.

US, China, Russia Test New Space War Tactics: Sats Buzzing, Spoofing, Spying - Breaking Defense

Models shared exclusively with Breaking Defense offer a rare glimpse into nation-on-nation run-ins in space as satellites follow, flee, and, allegedly, listen in on each other.

Look at the propulsion mechanism of KV. DACS (Divert Attitude Control System). This is the same system whose test video by Raytheon is been shared just a couple of page back. DRDO don't make such videos doesn't mean we are not working on it. Its test video has been shared here itself by @porky_kicker .

Not flight, but prototype roll out I believe. But ADA and HAL are giving very aggresive timeline for their products recently.

@Chinmoy I was wondering that what advantage does 2 stage warhead offers over single stage penetrating warhead. Right now we are using High carbon Steel are we going to replace it with tungsten.

And what does self propelled pre Impact meant here.

You are talking regarding KV here?

 

[fire starter]

You are talking regarding KV here?

I AM talking about deep Earth penetrators.

 

[Chinmoy]

I AM talking about deep Earth penetrators.

Ok.

By two stage warhead if you mean something like this, then the reason being behind such a penetrator is to give maximum penetration before the explosive could take out the target or its periphery.
There is a technical document from DRDO on it which I am sharing herewith.

My wish list.

1. Heavy combat helicopter.

2. Unmanned helicopter capable of carrying out attack and survillance role.

3. Next Gen. Optionally manned helicopter with radical design.

4. Fly by Wire flight controls.

5. A more powerful HTSE for IMRH.

I think these all program are just a successor and we should be able to do them given our experience.

They first have to approve the project.

If HAL invest on it from their own pocket, then no need for Government approval.

Not happening. It will be a Cr 1000+ number to start with. Its a public company thus you will know it.

 

[ash2win]

5. A more powerful HTSE for IMRH.

That would be double the max output. Unlikely and would be suboptimal.

 

[THESIS THORON]

imo engine of htse will be derrivative of aneto engine

 

[ash2win]

imo engine of htse will be derrivative of aneto engine

If you mean IMRH. yes, GE engine for navy and Aneto for AF/Army.

 

[ash2win]

Here is the timeline from last Aero India. MoD is yet to approve the project. Thus its impossible to roll out in 2023.

A public company could invest 1000 crore easily from its budget provided the BOD gives a go ahead. There is no need for extra go ahead for prototype development.
