Nope, Switch has a distinct twin boom tail.

This one's most probably a Vector from Quantum Systems (Germany).

yet Sudarshan managed to get one shot kill on fast moving maneuverable target drone with guidance from the Lynx FCR. Its good, very good even. And has been contracted for by the Indonesian navy

Will the Indonesian navy be deploying it on their ships?

Quantum-Systems Signs $3M Indian Contract – UAS VISION

Waah kia make in India he

Nope, Switch has a distinct twin boom tail.

The Sudarshan can reportedly fire at a rate of 300 rpm, so a twin barrel should give 600, which is more than enough for defending against drone swarms and cruise missiles, but against a barrage of incoming 155mm artillery shells or MLRS rockets, this will struggle, even if a twin barrel configuration is employed, or at least, that's my understanding of it.

What happens to the rounds that get fired from such cannons? I wonder during times of shooting do hapless civilians get hit by such falling rounds?

these shells contain projectiles of size about a bullet, so I think it will slow down as it reaches to the end of its motion arc.

also Our border states should implement air raid sirens to warn civilians about incoming missiles.

Depends on the type of round and the environment
- if non-explosive round, then they simply fall back
- if explosive round but in sea, then they detonate after falling back in sea
- if explosive round but in air and land, then there's a self destruct mechanism to make sure they're destroyed before falling back over civilian areas

Yes

 

[SwordOfDarkness]

How would you go about it? Just curious... you just create an app that monitor their usage of the computer through the moving of their mouse and tapping keyboard or something else?

In my line of work, someone will write a program to type garbage and move mouse randomly if they do this

Timed to explode after around 5k of flight even if it doesnt hit anythin.

Off topic


Can't we develop something similar by using the L-70 gun or AK-630? Not talking about the Pani ka tanki concept but using either BMP-2 or Tata IMPV.

Forget doing it with BMP-2. But yeah, concept is there to mount AA with programmable round on Kestral.

The real product.

 

[Chinmoy]

Isnt L70 rate of fire too low for fast targets? 300 rounds a minute is too low IMO for targets like planes and missiles.

This could be mitigated by using pre-fragmented programmable rounds.

Lemme see if i can find the video. Sorry its L&T not TASL

We could make fun of this, but the reality is, till date we were importing it.

In a missile launching apparatus in which a missile is coupled to a launching rack by an umbilical cord which passes through an opening in the skin or fairing of the missile, there is provided a device for severing the umbilical cord. This device includes a rotatable disk provided wth a hole which is offset relative to the axis of rotation of the disk and through which hole the cord passes. A cable is provided connecting the disk with the launching rack so that upon launching, the disk is rotated through a fraction of a turn. The disk is provided with a knife edge bordering part of the aforementioned hole for purposes of severing the umbilical cord. The hole in the disk is provided in a half of the disk and the other half of the disk is at least substantially imperforate. This latter half of the disk operates to obturate the opening in the skin of the missile after the umbilical cord has been severed. A safety pin is provided to lock the disk against rotation prior to launching of the missile and this pin is of a strength to be sheared when the disk is rotated by the aforesaid cable. In addition, there may be provided a switch which includes an actuator bearing against the disk and adapted to enter the aforesaid hole upon rotation of the disk in order to actuate the switch.
