Oh I have totally missed this. Good thing I didn't tweet this out, need to edit that. Thank you very much.

Images of 2 more 100% 3D printed components of the SCE-200 KERLOX engine. Both are made using Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The components are undergoing separate testing currently. We will probably see a hot fire test in 2021. Low Pressure Oxidiser Turbine(LPOT) : Low Pressure Fuel Turbine(LPFT) ...

Footage of the recent test. The eventual targeted range of Brahmos is 800km + : Brahmos's nose cap :

When I say track I don't mean the exact location but rather a locale where the sub is present. How would we order a nuclear strike from SSBNs if we cant talk to them ? ELF signals released from the sea-surface aren't the only way of communicating with bases. Secure comms can be established from...

The number of subs we have is ridiculously low & we operate them mostly in a limited area. Thus identifying and tracking friendly subs is a lot easier. The Navy maintains 2 ship/sub data centres to actively track all ships/subs in our operating domains(Indian Ocean, Bay of Bengal, Arabian sea...

Remember the recent Shaurya missile test ? There was no photos or videos from that test. But we were told the new version of the missile is "lighter & sleeker" while maintaining the performance of the old version. The old version had tech from 2010s and was bigger than the Brahmos. This is one...

I didn't know of this. Thank you for the papers will read up on them.

@Nilgiri @Paro @#comcom et al..... This one weapon has significant implications for the whole region for a simple reason. Range. The missile has a max range of 650 km !! Compare that with the 22km ranged ASROC or the Japanese 30km ranges rocket torpedo. There is no analogue to the SMART in the...

ISRO was built to cater to India's massive domestic demands & it currently operates one of the largest satellite constellations in the world: INSAT series from the 1980s(24 sats launched, 11 still operational) used for comms, navigations, SAR etc GSAT series (20 launched 14 operational) will be...

Apparently, there are word like this everywhere. I recently learned that TATA, one of our largest companies, means Dad in Polish. 🤣 🤣 @Nilgiri @Paro et al...... https://www.livefistdefence.com/2020/10/new-ghatak-stealth-ucav-model-breaks-cover.html

Excellent write up @#comcom. Very educational. The Indian Navy doesn't focus a lot on amphibious warfare, thus that dept. is very under-developed in India. I didn't even know there were so many types of amphibious ships out there. There has been some focus recently on the Andaman Islands, maybe...

@Nilgiri @Paro @#comcom et al... ADA Ghatak UCAV is a under-development stealth combat drone. "Ghatak" in Hindi means Lethal. The design phase of the project has almost ended. A full scale metal version of the drone is being made for RCS measurements and optimisations. A smaller version would...

Where did they use it ? West or East ?

Old but awesome photo. Brahmos ALCM separation from the central hardpoint of the Su-30MKI. Look at the size of that clamp.

2020 ?!?! WTF !! Nehru is still alive ? This is the biggest plot twist ever.:eek::eek:
