Hi @The Deterrent Please pardon me,if I say something offensive but I have observed this trend among far many more pakistanis vis-a-vis indians that they do not know what it takes to design system like these. I guess this might be because of the nature of pakistani...

Hi @Srinivas Oh really I did not know that! Care to explain your reasoning. Do you even know what you're talking about? Come to grips with reality. And no I did not see him throwing tantrum--you're the one using such language. Btw,how many projects have you worked on or...

Hi @Srinivas It is one thing to have an engineering project going on and quite another to make a product out of it.Lets be brutally honest here,DRDO no doubt has excelled in certain areas like missiles and radars but one needs to understand the complications faced while...

Hi shaheen Composites is increasingly being used in India's strategic missiles.in fact even the first stage of agni 5 is getting converted to composite from maraging steel. Now this technology has trickled down to smaller systems such as interceptors etc.

China has been invited and infact a team has also arrived.

Hi @Nilgiri I am not into radars anymore these days and my stint with PESA lasted for hardly 2months.I am now into Flight Dynamics,linux and my all time favourite hobby electronics.Btw,did you see my videos on youtube?

Hi @Mrc I very well know the difference between detection and tracking ,I happened to have worked on rajendra PESA as a internee for a brief period. I am afraid you didnt even bother to open the link and read what is written in the official site of elta 2080...

Hi shaheen! Well that is not entirely correct,the greenpine can very easily detect and track IRBS.I guess you're getting confused with semantics. It is one of the most capable radars out there in it's category. There are things which of course cant be revealed but it can very...

Hi shaheen! I am not into radars anymore but let me give it a shot!Well, Yes of course there are limits to the max speed of the target tracked. But it is more to do with processing constraints and UN-ambigous range. Remember a low PRF is needed to cover a large range but a high...

The main limiting factor here is PRF(pulse repetation frequency). And modern AESA radars including those designed by India(LRDE Bangalore) can complete one scan in azimuth and elevation in micro seconds or 1 million scans in one second(however this figure is lesser due to processing...

Hi shaheen! I am not quite sure what you're referring to here,But let me explain you little bit of Re-entry dynamics based on what I studied.Kindly note,I am not an RV expert--instead I am more into computers and electronics. First off,There are two aspects of RV that we...

There is no requirement as such that necessitates bi conical RV. Agni 2 warhead is actually a tri-conic design. In the final phase that is, when the RV is decelerating in atmosphere--something like 60kms till detonation, the speed of IRBMs like shaheen,ababeel or agni 2 reduced to 3-5 mach. You...

Hi shaheen! You do realize that RCS(reaction control system) tanks are not kept in filled state all the time! UDMH is toxic and the oxidizer is highly corrosive. It is because of these issues that RCS tanks of your PBV are filled just prior to launch--particularly the oxidizer...

Hi shaheen! There is nothing known as triangular RV. It is either conical or biconical. I guess in all those pictures you were referring to the nose cone, covering the MIRVs. This nose cone has to face dynamic pressure in atmospheric phase of the flight but it is shed as soon as all the motors...

I must say you're a keen observer! To be honest,I myself never realized it that way. I knew it because it has been published here in a lot of forums,seminars and journals that agni-4 and 5 sport flex nozzles. This technology helps them to easily canisterize the missile. Of course now the main...

Hi shaheen! That is because unlike majority of indians here who perhaps are blinded by nationalistic fervour,I strictly go by published and verifiable engineering literature.I know some of what I ask is taken as an offense by majority of pakistanis but then again,as someone who...

Thats what "you" think and "extrapolate"--doesnt necessarily mean it is correct.

Hi Shaheen! you still doubt that A-4 and 5 doesnt sport flex nozzles with servo mechanism?Really? Well Thats not a "solid plate" my friend(refering to your picture above). Itz heat skirt and yes it can flex. The nozzle of Agni-4 and 5 can flex. The deflection of the nozzle wont...

Hi! Agni-4 is a deployed system. Agni-5 will get deployed very soon as the development trials have been finished. K-4 also has finished the development trials and will commence deployment aboard INS arihant very soon. You see,my point was both DRDO and ISRO have the technical competencies to...

Hi shaheen! They can do this because of the simple reason that they have got flex nozzle implemented by servomechanism. All of India's strategic missiles that were designed recently in past 5-8 years have got this. So this manuevre can be exhibited by K-4 as well. However what...
