Good news......... again'................................,.

 

[patriots]

Seems arde is developing a new lmg
As tender is issued for

1.cartg ball 7 . 62 x 51mm m80 nato

2.supply of receiver assembly , receiver assembly as per spec no drdo arde lmg
3.breech block assembly
4.development of hand guard for 7.62x51mm light machine gun (lmg)

.. again some work is going with jpvc too

Uprated 1000 hp engine for T-72 tanks

V46 engine of 780 hp has been uprated to 1000 hp. It is extensively evaluated in test bed and in field. Currently under final stage of field trials.

Let me reveal for the first time what you are looking at is Kfifteen , there is no difference between the land based and sea based version.

Except the flight profile ofcourse.

Mods, requesting you all to rename this thread for 'DRDO and DPSU news and discussion'. For PSU purpose we should have another independent thread.

That's the reason why I always pitch in for a dedicated bomber instead of a modified one.

Can you give link? I think ARDE might be producing additional copies of OFB-DRDO GPMG which was modification of OUR FN GPMG.

Anyhow after Israeli order any indigenous development is practically dead.

DRDO cluster bomb anti armour and anti personnel

View attachment 52154

It is inducted? We don't need American bombs anymore??

Long back. Infact we are on second step now with CBU-105.

These are dumb cluster bombs

The CBU 105 is a smart sensor fuzed cluster bomb

DRDO has already demonstrated MMW sensor based bomblets

So common sense dictates that most probably they are working to miniaturise and improve it further inorder to package them into a cluster bomb

As part of a TD project smart munitions to defeat enemy armour from its vulnerable top was initiated long time back

These technologies developed for the same included

1.Explosively Formed Projectile (EFP)—A copper liner serving as antenna for the sensor in the search mode and forming a single projectile in the attack mode.

2.Detonator Arming Safety Device for activating EFP warhead

3.Efficient capsule ejection system

4.Highly compact MMW sensor

5.Rotatoil parachute for stabilising the sub-munition and scanning the ground target

The technology was validated for 120 mm mortar rounds.

No idea on current status

That's heartening to learn our progress in missiles and ammunitions including smart weaponry is quite extensive .

Unfortunately I doubt that , still a very long way to go , I could be wrong also

If somebody asks me which drdo missile is unmatched interms of technology and capabilities in the world ?

My answer : K4

Yes , from jaguar if I remember correctly

Hope drdo is studying them for reverse engineering
