The Prithvi missile was being developed as part of the Integrated Guided Missile Development Programme and was in its preliminary test phase then.

The missile section was under slung beneath a Mi-17 helicopter, and dropped from a height of four kilometers at the Pokharan firing range in the desert of Rajasthan.

The purpose was to test a particular component mounted in its nose.

For the test a 25 feet high stand to support the two tonne test vehicle was made over which the Mi-17 hovered and then pulled it vertically out and then climb to the required altitude for the drop.

ADVANCED INTEGRATED LIFE SUPPORT SYSTEM

An advanced Integrated Life Support System (ILSS) of an aircraft essentially addresses the need for preventing in-flight Hypoxia (during high altitude flying and emergency escape) and G-Induced Loss of Consciousness (G-LOC) during high G manoeuvres.


The technology consists of provisioning of breathing oxygen through On-Board Oxygen Generation System (OBOGS), a breathing regulator that supplies the breathing gas to the aircrew at desired flow and pressure, an Anti-G-Valve (AGV) that inflates the anti-G suit to apply desired counter pressure and an Electronic Controller Unit (ECU) to coordinate various functions.

In addition, many other sub-systems that provide back-up /redundancy and also impart life support during emergency escape are integral part of the ILSS. All these systems are integrated in the aircraft within very limited confines of the space.

ILSS consists of several sub-systems as Line Replacement Units (LRUs).

These are as given below:

Onboard Oxygen Generating System (OBOGS)

Back up Oxygen System (BOS) with Pressure regulator (PR)

Emergency Oxygen System (EOS)

Oxygen Sensor (OS)

Electronic Control Unit (ECU)

Breathing Gas Management Solenoid Valve (BGMS)

Quick Disconnect Coupling (QDC)

Demand Oxygen Regulator (DOR)

Anti G Valve (AGV)

Personal Equipment Connector (PEC)

The OBOGS produces oxygen enriched breathing gas from compressed air made available from Engine bleed air and High Power Water Extractor (HPWE).

Its oxygen concentration is continuously analysed by an oxygen sensor (OS) and in-turn, monitored by the ECU. The breathing gas is supplied through BGMS, QDC, DOR to the pilot at the required flow & pressure.

The ECU controls, monitors and coordinates the activities related to the OBOGS, BOS, OS, BGMS, DOR and also maintains a feedback with the Environmental Control Fuel Management Unit (ECFMEU) of the aircraft.

The BOS provides 100% oxygen during OBOGS failure or when selected by pilot and the EOS provides oxygen during ejection. The AGV pressurizes the anti-G suit during high-g manoeuvres. The PEC interfaces the ILSS with aircrew equipment namely oxygen mask, anti-G suit and the R/T cord. QDC helps in carrying the gas supply to DOR & AGV and facilitates ejection.

For a system like this will there be individual control rooms located at each port or a centralized one monitoring the data from all the port?

Nemesis8u Frumentius please watch this video and explain to me what I just watched.

My first thought was an OGE Hover gone haywire.

Both

Localised since response will be local

And the system's r also networked and feed to the relevant command centres .

Strategic assets like SSBNs SSN r involved so there has to be a failsafe central oversight.

Not possible most probably good video editing

Saw an interesting article stating that a large number of former Chinese J-6s i.e. MiG-19 copies have been converted into drones for a wide variety of potential roles. One of them is cheap disposable UCAVs or as cruise missiles or using them to gauge enemy response times. These could also be used in saturation attacks to overwhelm enemy defenses making sure the strike package gets through at the cost of these drones.

its not without some merit.
if you look at the earliest cruise missiles, they were essentially miniature planes.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSM-N-8_Regulus

its not something that i would consider though except as a last ditch effort. unless you have hundreds of operable aircraft for this purpose, its a silly use of resources.
not the planes themselves mind you, the resources needed to render them flyable, fit the autonomous control systems, and then outfit them for a given mission.

so except for use as a target drone, i am not sure why you would bother. and even for target drones, the US does it on a low rate production basis using planes that are pulled form the boneyard that are generally in operable condition (for a short period of time at least). and they have been doing it for many decades.
the first AIM-9 sidewinders were being shot from A-1 Skyraiders at drone F-6F WIldcat piston engine fighters.

easy force multiplier ... you let your enemies use up munition on throwaways like this and have a follow on force a few minutes after the initial attack (drones) and you get a friggin massacre .... throw in some jammers to muddle up the battle area even more

Good example of 3R
Reuse Recycle Reduce .

Not just those. I heard their converting their old T-66 tanks into remote controlled tank destroyers.

You can bet PLAAF will easily do the same to the Q-5 fleet and those in storage.

Fuji TACOM, a Japanese experimental air-launched UAV

At one point of time, there were plans for a supersonic capable Harrier. New engine technologies like Plenum Chamber Burning (PCB) were investigated for their ability to deliver higher thrust and fuel efficiency over the existing design but was quietly dropped. The fact that the idea and others like it was not pursued further was one of the greatest losses for the British aerospace community.
