Hi shaheen! There are various challenges , first off, they are going to increase the diameter of the missile to 2.1 to 2.2m. if the length of the missile has to remain same. This means an entirely new rocket-- one that would be made up of composites instead of maraging steel. To...

Hi shaheen missile! Yes it was riddled with delays because it was carried out entirely in India without any russian technical assistance(in spite of the fact that Russians are the OEMs). In case you have have any doubts, kindly watch this seminar on structural...

Hi @The Accountant Maybe I can not notice a camera/IIR seeker, can you point it out for me? I would be really obliged! I just hope you know that there "exists" a camera/IR seeker in TV/IR guided missiles. As far as I have read the max velocity that can be...

Hi @Han Patriot You're slightly off mark here, Mark-1(IOC): No inflight refueling/No AESA/No BVR- 20 ordered Mark-1(FOC): Inflight Refueling/Derby BVR(Derby-ER is also slated to come), However no AESA-40 ordered(I am not sure about the number though) Mark-1A: Advanced...

Hi @The Accountant First of all I do not think CM400 is either a TV/IR guided system,for if it was, we could see either a camera or Infra red seeker in the nose. The only possibility left is then active radar guidance--which is de facto the most widely used sensor for AshM missiles. Let me make...

You can never compare the terminal kinetics of a simple solid fueled missile with that of a liquid ramjet. The latter is undoubtedly superior in the sense that it remains supersonic throughout its flight regime whereas former gets supersonic in terminal sprint

Hi @The Accountant If you notice carefully it was not me who initiated this thread. I was merely responding that's all. Also while hypersonic brahmos isn't in existence as of now,however it'll be in next 3-5 years. So it'll be fairly natural for those concerned to come up with ways to defeat it...

@The Accountant I could not comprehend what you were trying to say. But I am sure you do not know anything about hypersonic guided missiles or their tracking. In case it is indeed the case, kindly do some justice and read the subject first! Thanks in advance!

Hi @LeGenD I agree with you completely. There are certain areas where F-16(nearly all variants) are ahead of even flankers and that is STR. Everything in F-16 has a typical aura that it was optimized for serious STRs. Blended fuselage, lerx, nimble etc etc. However in...

Hi @CriticalThought Perhaps you have never designed a guidance and control algorithm before,have you? First off, your ordinary radars wont be able to pick a missile travelling at lets say 5-7 machs(there is a limit to which they can discriminate velocities). I dont think there is any radar in...

@ashok321 Have a look here, Hi dear @CriticalThought I am fully aware of what you're saying, as a researcher myself I totally agree with the methodology you have suggested above. Now you are either totally ignorant or just like poster above you think WIPO...

@ashok321 Are you an idiot? If the above link is down or if it is not displaying the data, then what can I do? Go and first educate yourself on SCIMAGO and then we will talk.

@ashok321 The link might be down now, but it sure is the link from SCIMAGO. http://www.scimagojr.com/index.php try this one and go to 2015 data

@ashok321 instead of wasting my time, kindly prove your points with official links as i have done. So WIPO and SCIMAGO rankings are farce? Where did I claim India is superior to S korea in patent race? Stop trolling me, and produce official links. I'm only worried about patents filed "from"...

Hi @CriticalThought It is very imprudent to formulate your opinion based on your very very limited interaction with some guys at tech mahindra. In order to fully appreciate India's technical prowess you need to visit cities like bangalore, pune and institutes like...

Yeah very nice thinking, now back to the topic!

Hi! You can choose not to care, it is your wish, but let's focus on primary topic of this thread instead of economy. Also India is a country of contradictions, on one hand you've roughly 23% indian living under absolute poverty , on the other hand the middle class now amounts to 400+mn now and...

Hi! Of course by PPP metric India is going to have a very pathetic figure. I'm sure you're intelligent enough to understand why is that the case--1.2bn population! However what is more important is the fact how we are developing and how things are changing in both India and Pakistan. If you look...

Hi my dear @Penguin Of course what you said should be adopted however India with a growth rate of >7% can much better afford to spend 2% of GDP on defence as compared to pakistan that spends 3.5% of GDP on defence with a much lower growth percentage. Also I need not stress it again that it is...

Hi @CriticalThought I have a paper in AIAA under guidance,navigation and control. So,let me take this opportunity to briefly explain why such a proposition wouldnt really work in real life without substantial changes. First off, Hypersonic brahmos is still at...
