ARDE developed a capacitor-based pulsed power system of 4 MJ, which used to propel projectiles of mass above 100 g to hypervelocity's. The system used the modular approach, by integrating ten 400-kJ capacitor bank modules.
A number of simulation studies were carried out , performance analysis of the system using Microcap simulation package, design of various pulsed power subsystems using ANSYS Maxwell simulation tool, and finite element transient analysis for current diffusion through the in-house developed software.
Power transfer lines, coaxial cables, and pulse-shaping inductor were designed and fabricated. Various electromagnetic (EM) launchers were designed, developed, and fabricated. Modules are arranged on various racks and are integrated with the EM launcher. Launchers are initially test fired with four modules and then with ten modules.
The data acquisition system was developed to measure module currents, in-bore position, velocity, and acceleration of armature. The pulsed power system was experimented up to 1.1-MA current pulse and was successfully test fired to accelerated 120-g mass projectile at a muzzle velocity of 2024 m/s.

I'm not 100% sure
But if you zoom in you can vaguely see some attachments on their helmets
Wonder what it could be

For the first time in the country, ISRO has successfully demonstrated free-space Quantum Communication over a distance of 300 m.
ISRO makes breakthrough demonstration of free-space Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) over 300 m.
For the first time in the country, Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has successfully demonstrated free-space Quantum Communication over a distance of 300 m. A number of key technologies were developed indigenously to accomplish this major feat, which included the use of indigenously developed NAVIC receiver for time synchronization between the transmitter and receiver modules, and gimbal mechanism systems instead of bulky large-aperture telescopes for optical alignment.
The demonstration has included live videoconferencing using quantum-key-encrypted signals. This is a major milestone achievement for unconditionally secured satellite data communication using quantum technologies.
The Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) technology underpins Quantum Communication technology that ensures unconditional data security by virtue of the principles of quantum mechanics, which is not possible with the conventional encryption systems. The conventional cryptosystems used for data-encryption rely on the complexity of mathematical algorithms, whereas the security offered by quantum communication is based on the laws of Physics. Therefore, quantum cryptography is considered as โfuture-proofโ, since no future advancements in the computational power can break quantum-cryptosystem.
The free-space QKD was demonstrated at Space Applications Centre (SAC), Ahmedabad, between two line-of-sight buildings within the campus. The experiment was performed at night, in order to ensure that there is no interference of the direct sunlight.
The experiment is a major breakthrough towards ISROโs goal of demonstrating Satellite Based Quantum Communication (SBQC), where ISRO is gearing up to demonstrate the technology between two Indian ground stations.

No comments other than fits a fat projectile > 50,00,000 meters.
Had stability issue at one time.
Why not put 1 big water mark as usual and several very small watermarks at different places in the picture that only you know? This way, anyone else will have to scan the entire image for very small watermarks but most probably will fail to remove all of them?

Laure kag jayenge pic ki...
Anyways not an issue anymore, he's finally on Twitter now & will tweet whatever he posts here.

LUH gets the go-ahead. LOA for 12 choppers, 6 each for the airforce and army given.

Pretty quick, I must say, considering its LRIP.
Any idea as to which HAL facility will be making these choppers?

Newly built HAL helicopter division production facility at Tumkur. Even proposed komov 228 JV choppers are scheduled to manufacture in that unit if order is signed.

Hope its never signed....LUH and its derivatives should form our future fleet
Looks beautiful and deadly in green colour. We can mount 4/6 launchers of Nag missile on this platform just like Israeli's have done with Spike.

I think the requirement is of 400+ choppers...
12 now followed with 185 LUH order. Rest 250+ will be for kamov. Russian lobby is very deep and even our armed forces are interested in Komov.

This beast is already in service with 16th Sikh serving under the UN flag.
Looks extra deadly in olive green .
3.2 ltr 215 hp multi fuel engine from Steyr.
Transmission from GM.
Bilstein suspension.
We need to modify and customise the LSV for our Red Devils. That open Gurkha LSV needs a armoured bro to compliment it in the dicey and tight shoot in and shoot out situations .
