I shared what I knew about it. Not disputing anything you say. Given your assertion about the tests, I did try to look it up. Landed up with this piece from Bharat Rakshak. It's a piece from Dr. V.K. Saraswat's presentation in 2014 (maybe it was tested after 2014). It does mention that MMW seeker based PGM is under testing. However, dosen't say that missile launched PGM is tested or testing.... just says that it's possible to bunch it up in Prithvi missile.View attachment 64995

As per my understanding it's a Drone launched PGM, not a MLPGM. MLPGM would be stacked/bunched up inside the body of the missile and seeded in the target area, in the terminal phase of the missile.
For me, the pic represents a PGM test but not a MLPGM test.

Probable frontal profile of under development NGMBT.

Probable frontal profile of under development NGMBT.

Is crew in front ? I see only one hatch. No Hard kill APS, no screen to protect gun and electronics etc. RCWS is over gun mantlet lol , any specifications about this.

 

[Swiftfarts]

Look like they just change the manned turret on Arjun with an unmanned one. Moving crew in thick armoured capsule in front. But there is only one hatch. Look more like a recently upgraded chalanger 2 front.

Ground clearance looks pathetic for such an arrangement. no crew escape hatch underneath.

Compared to T 14 Armata. Since this tank aspired to be similar.

Better ground clearance + crew escape option from beneath.

 

[Swiftfarts]

So i made a mistake RCWS is in back , not on mantlet. crew is still in turret. Basically Arjun Mk2.

The test would broadly fall under the MLPGM program. But what was tested and proven was control and guidance algorithm of the munition with mathematical model of seeker. As can be seen in the pic, I still stand by what I said previously. It is a PGM, not a MLPGM.
It's a PGM launched from a UAV, not a missile.
There is a difference between validating a sub-system and validating the system itself.
Let's agree to leave it here.

Look like Koreans have transferred there tank turret design.

Before that pic of SANT surfaced , I thought this was SANT. Didn't ever think about the launch platform.

Prasun has labelled it as SANT in one of his articles. And he was wrong.

This is my speculation that the Akash NG radar is going to be a adaptive beamforming phased array radar

Looks like nirbhay launcher
