HGV DF-17 is a hypersonic glider. Indian test is a SCRAMjet powered test vehicle. It will lead to a SCRAMjet powdered cruise missile similar to Zircon. They are two totally different beasts. India most liekly does not have an announced hypersonic glider program. BTW, China also has a hypersonic...

What does it mean by "too advanced"? What do you mean by "completely different technology route"? Once more, there was NO SCRAMjet engine flying in 80s. And in 90s there was still NO SCRAMjet engine producing enough thurst to fly a vehicle on its own. That was NO net thurst. Your shallow...

May I ask what is the purpose of Starry Sky 2 in China? It does not carry any warhead or payload too. May I also ask what is the purpose of X-51 in USA too? It also did not carry any payload. *Sigh* Chinese are surely whacked in the head.

Wrong on all points This was NOT a SCRAMjet based weapon, it was based on RAMjet. ditto. Okay. So basic of basics first. For SCRAMjets, there are three types of experimental vehicles. 1. Ground tests (like Starry Sky 2 recently did in a wind tunnel in China, for 600 odd seconds or so) 2...

What ever you guys are planning on your scramjet demonstrator called Starry Sky 2 or something similar. Kung Pao Chow?

That was NOT your original point. You said this :

I think India does that already.

American diet is whack out of portion sizes. That said, compared to their US counterparts, even Asian Americans in USA are slimmer. Actually being very slim is desired in Asian cultures. Being fat or even buff is considered as lazy. Japan comes to mind. Being "buff" or having more muscles is...

Because its not a missile. Why will it have a payload?

If you are implying visual appearances of the vehicle, here is an impression of US SCRAM-Jet based test vehicle called wave-rider. I hope no one jumps to conclusion based on mere physical similarities.

Asians are usually slim. Indians tend to be underfed.

BOTH India and China got massive help from Russia in developing missiles. China got R-1, R-2 and R-11 missiles in 1950s together with technologies and know-how. First Chinese missile based on R-2 design called DF-1 was produced in late 1960s, about 10 years of reciving technology from Russia...

Honestly those drones are overrated and mostly PR value. If it comes to it, they can be easily shot down. India has a long experience in supplying troops in even a more inhospitable frontier of Saichen. It is at much higher altitude than eastern Ladakh.

Usually, those Chinese who want to open business in India or sell goods in India. Business traveller. China was a somewhat of a popular destination for some Indian students seeking a budget degree in medicine. https://www.eoibeijing.gov.in/guideline-for-indian.php That said, Indians will...
