This is a very important, comprehensively detailed thread about true indigenization efforts and steps being taken across India. Pls look at it from time-to-time.
Very good repository, imo...

the female Pakistani operative asked him whether the Agni-6 launcher test has been successful, to which he responded saying: “The launcher is my design babe… It was a great success.”

Looks like he really was convinced he was a stud.. in every department...

Doesnt make sense, why stealthy engine when already s intakes? Bouncing would give like 0.0001 part of RCS being reflected back.

Either misunderstanding or gimmick or simply WLVN Analysis's interpretation of stealth engine...all of which are bs as it's almost impossible to reduce the RCS of a rotating object, let alone near zero

Can someone tell me uses of such fpv drones to kill other LM by crashing into them?

gimmicky propaganda vid, easier to shoot it with rifle than to do these shenanigans of chasing it with drone.

Pros of (any) UAV in anti-UAV role
- cost effective compared to even the cheapest missile

Cons of FPV UAV in anti-UAV role
- cost of engagement still higher than guns, lasers, DEWs and EW
- extremely difficult to detect, launch and engage a LM in its endgame phase using a FPV drone
- is not fire and forget

BTW, it's been almost a decade since Raytheon has been tinkering with using a radar guided commercial off-the-shelf drone to engage other UAVs. It's called Coyote

Stealth Engine doesn't refer to Intake design but the ability to lower exhaust gases temperature by mixing cooler air along the hotter exhaust air so as to lower IR signature...the biggest weakness of any stealth fighter is exhaust gases...since they are Afterburning Engines they tend to have stronger IR signatures than Non-Afterburning Engines. Even F-22 can't beat F-117 Nighthawk and B-2 spirit Bombers in IR Stealth.
