guys, this is just a list of what we can have in 2013- the list is in complete,put your thoughts and add to the list of what else may happen in 2013-only scientific achievements.



Testing of Nirbhay cruise missile

Induction of Kolkata class destroyer in to navy

Testing of Brahmos air version.

completion of field trials of NAG antitank guided missile.

Induction INS Vikramditya-hopefully.

development of BARAk-8.

Induction of new corvettes.

Laying of keel for project 17A frigates.

Operationalization of Arihant nuke sub with integrated K-15 missile.

Completion of field trials of Arjun MK2

hopefully, Future infantry combat vehicle deal be made.

testing of ballistic missile with MIRV-though there is high possibility that this may happen in 2014.

I'm waiting for the launch of 2nd nuke sub, it will be great if we can have it in 2013.

And off course, Launch of GSLV MK III.
 
I think next year we might see the test of k-15 from the sub, since so far it has only been tested from underwater pontoons.
 
I am expecting the launch of mk2 rather than mk3. Mk3 will not fly before 2014 or even 2015.
I am expecting Indian artillery guns to be tested and verified.
 
deal for super sukhoi and Rafale.
induction of P-8I poseidon Multimission Maritime Aircraft
 
Singing of MMRCA deal and hopefully the details of the weapons package and specs of the Rafales the IAF will be getting come out,
singing of Apache deal,
signing of M-777 deal,
signing of Chinook deal
signing of the IN's N-MRH deal (S-70B) deal,
signing of the Super Sukhoi deal and hopefully the exact specs of this beasts will come out,
(these deals will be signed in the FY 2012-13, but will most likely happen towards March 2013),




induction of the P-8I,
induction of the C-17.

Testing of Nirhbay,
Testing of Bhramos ALCM


Operational deployment of the Arihant SSBN


(hopefully) the concrete plans of a joint SOF command coming to light.


Also IIRC the first of the upgraded M2Ks from France/Thales will return to the IAF next year.



And of course much, MUCH more that we either don't know about or aren't told about!
