Well standard FR4 can take about 120 deg C. Some special ones can take 170 deg C. Temperature should not be a problem.

You know the temperature on surface reach 120 degree at mach 2 , so we should rather have tolerance till 150 degree

Well the substrate can be changed without a hassle to a high temperature substrate without an effect on performance. They chose FR4 because its cheap and readily available.
By the way isn't the 120 deg C temperature achieved only after 1hour of flying at 2.2 Mach?
I don't think a jet will fly at those speeds for an hour.
Isn't AMCA top speed about 1.8 Mach?

Currently, IN has quoted a requirement of 14 systems which will most probably go onboard the following platforms:
04 P-28
03 P-15
03 P-16A
03 Talwar class / P-17
01 INS Vikramaditya

After all this requirements are fulfilled then only they will move to the newer platforms.

Also, we should start referring the Indian version of DRDO-IAI missile as MRSAM instead of Barak-8. Barak is their own domestic missile system comprising of 3 types.

There are some people who are fantasizing that MRSAM should be replaced by Akash NG. Rest assured that will not happen. MRSAM is our own missile and it will be backbone of Indian Armed Forces for very long time. Even though it is costly, still it is very capable and I think it is also the second tri service missile after Brahmos.

Does the VL-SRSAM replace the Barak 1 or the Shtil?

Barak 1, but I am hoping they replaced the Shtil arm launcher with VL-SRSAM aswell

Does the VL-SRSAM replace the Barak 1 or the Shtil?

Most probably both.

It was suppose to be to completed by this year only but due to that fire mishap it got stretched. Now, one can most probably expect by Q2 of 2023.

While this is good for us its embarrassing that army still hasn't given any orders

Apparently the Kalyani order is from a non conflict zone . Middle East, Armenia or some African country ?

It was supposed to be in service by now but because of the mishap it has been delayed to the year end or Q1 2023.

... if it's towed howitzer then $155 million means approx 90-100 guns.



Meanwhile Indian army...!

Not 90-100 ,cost of atags or any other is about 2 million or 1.8 million at least , , so at max it is 75-80

It's not ATAGS... as per shukhla ji's 2 yr old tweet... it's either Bharat-52 or the 105mm Garuda.

It has been mentioned in the press that it's a 155mm gun so it's not Garuda 105. Eighter Bharat 52 or a version of its ULH gun

If 155mm then only atags or Bharat 52 are the possibilities
