Can anybody confirm if a mast mounted radar solution for LCH is planned or in the works?
Very limited information is available regarding LCH status... But given how much fewer number we bought Apaches (like an experience building pilot project), it is likely LCH will get it eventually.Can anybody confirm if a mast mounted radar solution for LCH is planned or in the works?
Last time it was reported that iaf wants to have mast moVery limited information is available regarding LCH status... But given how much fewer number we bought Apaches (like an experience building pilot project), it is likely LCH will get it eventually.
If report to be believed
I still don't get at all how these thing plans to operate with unguided rockets instead of ATGMs. What good are those?
In videos it looks very much like direct line of sight, spray & pray volley on single static target. How do they even am if those launcher ports are fixed?.. Wouldn't the HMD aimed auto-canon be much more accurate?
Seems a bit outdated for today's conventional battlefield with MANPADS & 20mm on every APC.
That's ok. But can you (or anyone you know) have answers for the questions I asked about the unguided rockets?.. I read one attempt by US to make the laser guided by attaching guidance modules, to increase accuracy manyfold.Helina , sant and dhruvstra user trials will happen this year

And here is your answerYou are referring to this
Hydra-70 system development
The original Mk 4/Mk 40 FFAR was developed by the Naval Ordnance Test Station as an air-to-air weapon. It was later modified for air-to-ground use.
The Hydra-70 lacks precision when compared to other guided missile systems, such as the Hellfire II. The Hydra-70, however, is less expensive. The US Army initially planned to reduce the production of the systems, but revised its decision considering their cost-efficiency.
Efforts are ongoing to improve the overall accuracy of the Hydra-70 rocket system. The system is being tested to include a laser guided system, such as the Hellfire II, to improve its performance.
Great news!.. Now all they need to do is free up those hardpoints by moving the Mistrals to wingtip like Bel SuperCobra.Bdw a quad luncher for atgm is in development for lch..
And lch can carry upto@16 atgms.....
And with current dual helina luncher upto 8

Why do foreign stuff look futuristic compared to ours.?Great news!.. Now all they need to do is free up those hardpoints by moving the Mistrals to wingtip like Bel SuperCobra. View attachment 49534
...And a 30mm cannon (only 45kg to 120kg gun weight increase) ...And laser-guided rockets.
Well it must be something with your eyes.....Why do foreign stuff look futuristic compared to ours.?
What's not so futuristic about this.Why do foreign stuff look futuristic compared to ours.?
