Drdo Glider Assisted Torpedo program

It seeks to develop a glider configuration which when mounted on a torpedo can assist it to glide.

The initial specified design objective is to achieve a minimum range of 25 Km in a maximum duration of 250 sec when the whole assembly is launched from an altitude of 6 Km with a circular error probability of 500m.

The assembly after launch has to be controlled with the help of an on-board autopilot using integrated GPS-INS.

Rustom 2 (tapas) recently completed its first flight in user configuration with more powerful engines .

Interestingly the test range was under threat of closure due to objection of NGOs being funded from abroad.

Then there was tightening of screws on NGOs and strict supervision to counter their subversion activities.

This is how u try to influence a country indirectly via NGOs , media etc inorder to stymie their development.

Actually Rustom has a long way to go.

Weapon development is based on threat perception , due to overiding cost and tech roadblocks .

Untill ones ass is on fire , one won't make a move.

The more powerful Ur threat , the more will u be into various weapon development.

Ind... ass is on fire that is why they have to do the needful or perish

Mahindra four-seater Light Strike Vehicle

Designed and developed for the Special Forces of the Indian Army, it is to be deployed during the special surgical strike operations in a hostile environment.

The vehicle has a multi fuel 3.2 Lt. 215 hp diesel engine, six-speed automatic transmission and 4x4 transfer case fitted inside a custom designed rugged space frame chassis. It is capable of climbing over a 30 degree gradient, 300 mm vertical obstacle, 45 degree of side slope, crossing through 500 mm water and achieving over 120 Kmph of speed.

Kali 30gw system

The Kali is a particle accelerator. It emits powerful pulses of electrons (Relativistic Electron Beams- REB). Other components in the machine down the line convert the electron energy into EM Radiation, which can be adjusted to x-ray (as Flash X-Rays) or microwave (High Power Microwave) frequencies.

Theoretically it can serve as a weapon but not doable in real becz it is a one shot system at present and very bulky .

This one is able to generate 30 GW of power.

That is huge compared to present day military grade devices which r not more than 200 kW or so.

But Japan has fired the most powerful one generating 2 pettawatt for 1 picosecond

That is more than 1000 times the world's total electricity consumption .

If gods and heavens exists then both of them must have got zapped pretty bad during the earthly experiment.

odunayaw here's the type of aircraft I was referring to when I say I'll strap a rocket pod on.

that one has a 90- 100hp engine not enough payload

in fact AVIC has been testing a modified LE500 with 560kg payload 260hp engine and attached weapon for some time
.

Tank EX

T90 hull and Arjun turret

Russia killed it

And fuuccking Ind.. did not have the balls to take the call

where's odunayaw when you need him.

this right here is called "a poor man's close air support"

It's cheap, easy to operate, reliable and most importantly..... it works.

ask the libyans how they used something like this to great effect against the Chadians in the Toyota war.


all you need to do is
1) reinforce the wing
2) upgrade the engines
3) upgrade avionics
4) mount rockets and gunpods
5) jolly hunting

This is the Nigerian Airforce. You are ordered to land or we will shoot you down.

If you're prepared to consider that, might as well come down south and like Botswana, Mozambique and Tanzania, buy the Bat Hawk. Botswana has also decided to arm some of theirs.
US$40 000/craft and operating cost is US$40/hour!!!
170 have been sold

cheap CAS

I was also thinking large kites with rocket mounts,then we have a section of soldiers flying it & running around in the heat of things screaming "today na today"

I'm I the only one who reads history here??

if a similar aircraft was used with great effect against Nigeria, I wonder why it won't work against boko haram how sophisticated are they?

lionel4power:

I was being facetious
Seriously though, Botswana has armed them with 2 FN MINIMI 5.6 mm Mk3 LMGs, fired from a button in the cockpit. Talks are underway to integrate 2 X 7-tube FZ rocket launchers.
