* PS: Its an establish fact that India has the capacity to locally develop and deploy Akash systems.

The purpose of this thread is to identify the origins of this technology while busting the "myth" of Akash's Indigenousness. IMHO Akash is not at all an Indigenous Indian system as India has to technology to develop a decent SAM system on its own.

Akash in my opinion is just an upgraded / bigger & better variant of Russian SA-6 Gainful !

Another effort gone vain.. yes both looks like missiles.


Both are different in specifications.


Purpose of thread is flame baits....
 
Maybe SA_6 automatically evolved into it. evolution theory..

There are many other differences. But who can teach a person like that!He has done it earlier and busted, now he is doing it again for another. lol Evolution theory after all.
 
oh my god aeronaut..both of them look just like missiles....
and their platforms look same too...
India should have put akash SAM on rickshaw or tractor...
and the way they are launched..its like a mirror image..
thanks for opening our eyes man..
 
I can already see Indians burning inside out -- just read my original post before you commence your troll attack. :coffee:

The main component of any kind of missile is its guidance system, care to talk about that part.

There's hardly any change in design in missiles.
 
All the Pakistani missiles are Chinese origin for you, are those?

Let see what we can do with your 'myth'.

You cant refrain yourself from trolling can you ? -- no one is talking about Pakistani missiles in this thread but we are talking Akash :rolleyes:

I donno why mods bring back trolls they ban for a good reason.
 
@ Aeronaut

Weren't you congratulating the Turks, for their first indigenous helicopter prototype? Why don't you start one of these "how indigenous" threads for the Turks too? Let me know if you need any help with finding the info.:cheers:

Already out?

The thread is a troll, you are not posting this first time. Burning, :rofl: yiu can not digest that we have developed the system and deployed it thats why such thread. Develop something for your own first than talk about others.
