Agni-6 is in its last stage of development. Crucial work on 4th stage is going on.

I hope its true and government actually tests this missile. It'll be great symbolism to achieve ability to hit yanks.

The Europeans will start having nightmares after the Agni 6 missile test.
But, I think the missile might have already been developed in 2017 as nearly each Agni missile had a development time of 5 years. Agni 5 was ready in 2012.

New developement on FSASPDS ammo front, likely to benefit both T-72/90 as well as Arjun MBTs.

WTF! And no version of it for Arjun!!!.. Why would the suicidal fools even waste time & money developing rounds of foreign T-90.

RHA of arjun shell is 600mm at 2km

not bad by current standards............but will need to improve.

Clearly photoshopped image. Looks like, [6]00mm.

May be some editing was done on paper before the showcase just in case someone printed wrong or as u said it can be photo shopped also, who knows.I was talking about 125 mm rounds earlier by the way.

 

[shiphone]

the original one is '300mm' before that 'PS' job....
we observed this 'correction' on that blog long long time ago...
post--delete--repost........very interesting

Any update about new 120mm shell. instead of this they are developing 125mm shells without proper fire control systems

I heard that IAF will deploy FOC level tejas on front line base in JandK. They are again doing the mistake of mig21 why would anyone deploy a jet with no ew suite, aesa radar, bvr on frontline base to face enemy's best jets during conflict.
tejas mk1 is nothing but just a good looking version of mig21 they are shooting on their own legs I think that whole leadership of IAF is dumb or they have any other plans to cause further embarrassment

 

[Atcjurvin]

We have many other jets such as su30, mig29 and Rafael why cant we deploy them. I know tejas is a good interceptor but it will be first to scramble during emergency (like mig21 on 27feb) to face enemy's best jet.

 

[Atcjurvin]

Found it 125mm apfsds mk2 with penetration of 500mm has been developed by ARDE and is currently in use. https://googleweblight.com/i?u=https://tdf.drdo.gov.in/technology_updates/index/7&hl=en-IN

They're deploying Mark 1A at J&K base, which will come with all three. (It'll be from 1st batch, so will carry Israeli AESA instead of Uttam. )

We have many other jets such as su30, mig29 and Rafael why cant we deploy them. I know tejas is a good interceptor but it will be first to scramble during emergency (like mig21 on 27feb) to face enemy's best jet.

Enemy's best jet happens to be old F-16 & Jf-17 BlkXX. Both with much higher RCS & comparable maneuverability, inferior avionics.

Just last week China learnt from exercises with Thailand, that Thai Jas-39 Gripens can craush their J-11 in BVR. Tejas is even more stealthy than Gripen, & with new AAMs should be able to hold its own against Chinese Flankers too.

I know that missile is ready. For a country able to through a 4 tonne spacecraft 45,000 kms up (not including lakhs of kilometers travelled by onboard boosters), reaching at any corner of world isn't actually challenge.

Matter was Agni-6 was sent in cold storage for the sake of Indo-US relations.

^Agreed. Besides, anyone who has seen the PS4 stage would know India has latent MIRV capability. The delivery vehicle technology was never a problem. It is the reentry vehicle miniaturization. This is where the information available in public gets a little fuzzy. We don't have any Mark12A analogous and most importantly a compatible warhead. Without these two, we will end up with a bulbous payload fairing.

Highlights :

1) CAR 816 from UAE finally in the clear. DRDO wanted Indian Army to buy JVPC or MINSAS but has lifted objections.

2) India is giving an old Kilo Class submarine INS Sindhuvir to Myanmar Navy. This to prevent China from giving away an old Kilo Class and securing a naval base there.

3) SATHI 2.0 aka the handheld touchscreen interface similar to the US Army ATAK has been revived for user trials by mid 2020.

MIRV ability doesn't need to get operationalized unless you have tonnes of nukes to below. US & Russia had it while China is inducting it now.

India is still busy with making a similar warfighting nuclear arsenal. MIRVs will be useful thereafter.

For warheads, I won't comment whether we have it or not. Our seekers capable of tracking & hitting TV set sized objects have already arrived and have been tested.

 

[ezsasa]

How come there were no tests of shaurya missle in past 6 years? is it inducted?

 

[Atcjurvin]

porkis living in their own delusion.

 

[Prashant12]

Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) today successfully test fired a BrahMos supersonic cruise missile off the coast of Odisha in which it was launched with an advanced indigenous seeker. The target of the missile was a ship.

 

[Atcjurvin]

chinese are still developing stealth coating and s shape air intake.

 

[Atcjurvin]

Are we buying 464 T90s or T90ms
