I am very much happy with these news. Range is 30 km akash missile with upgraded is 35 km. Barack 8 missile range is 70 km and upgraded in 150 km. Indian missile range is improving. What is range of XR SAM. I heard is 250 km.........................
MRSAM is ER version of barak 8I am very much happy with these news. Range is 30 km akash missile with upgraded is 35 km. Barack 8 missile range is 70 km and upgraded in 150 km. Indian missile range is improving. What is range of XR SAM. I heard is 250 km.
Theoretically yes. But practically it is some time away from induction and since it's designed for mobility it may turn out costly than akash.QRSAM system is having the same range as Akash, is more mobile and fast as well. Hence can this work in area defence too and thus replace Akash? So why do we require both the kind of missiles? What is the minimum range of these missiles? Can any expert give me a side-by-side comparison?
I think akash is different missile, it's size shows it's assurance in getting job done.QRSAM system is having the same range as Akash, is more mobile and fast as well. Hence can this work in area defence too and thus replace Akash? So why do we require both the kind of missiles? What is the minimum range of these missiles?

1.The main difference in QR sam is it has different command and control then Akash which reduces reaction time.QRSAM system is having the same range as Akash, is more mobile and fast as well. Hence can this work in area defence too and thus replace Akash? So why do we require both the kind of missiles? What is the minimum range of these missiles? Can any expert give me a side-by-side comparison?
Difference is in mode of operation and deployment.QRSAM system is having the same range as Akash, is more mobile and fast as well. Hence can this work in area defence too and thus replace Akash? So why do we require both the kind of missiles? What is the minimum range of these missiles? Can any expert give me a side-by-side comparison?
Akash is a ramjet(read somewhere) QR SAM is not, rest you can yourself judge.I thank all those who gave me an insight of the differences between Akash & QRSAM. But my simple question is why can't QRSAM replace akash as a area or strategic field defence system? Why should there be different parallel lines of development - Akash 2, Akash NG & QRSAM? Or is it that the minimum range of QRSAM is smaller than akash or akash has more chasing capacity than QRSAM?
It could. But Akash can't replace QRSAM. So you do need different system for different purpose and occassion.I thank all those who gave me an insight of the differences between Akash & QRSAM. But my simple question is why can't QRSAM replace akash as a area or strategic field defence system? Why should there be different parallel lines of development - Akash 2, Akash NG & QRSAM?

Akash Mk2 is dual pulse rocket motor engine with enhance range. So engine doesn't matter much in role.Akash is a ramjet(read somewhere) QR SAM is not, rest you can yourself judge.
