Shut the frak up before being arrogant for no reason. If you had the literacy to read through my whole post, I did say that the experience has helped us develop the sagarika. did I say it was a failure? Did I? I said it wont be deployed. And that makes it a tech demonstrator.

True.

Then, you should put it in a positive way. Why make silly claims that Dhanush is too expensive? Do you have exact figures on project funding? If not, then keep your mouth shut and don't troll here.

If you compare DRDO's budget with their foreign counterparts, it is under-funded. That's why your remark on costs of an "R&D" programme doesn't make any sense.

If am not wrong" Dhanush " might be India's SR ASBM(SHORT RANGE ANTI SHIP BALLISTIC MISSILE) ,as i read some where it has 10CEP ACCURACY COMPARE TO 25CEP of other Prithvi variants . Now it's not a big deal even if Dhanush a liquid fueled BM because modern methods reduces the time require to fuel BM in mere 50mins or So . In terms of Accuracy,precision,navigation and transportablity ,Dhanush scored 10/10 ..

One thing that US and rest of the world do not have is a ballistic missile on a boat. India is the only country trying to create a ship launched, liquid fueled missile. Who can say that Indians are not innovative?

Wtf is wrong with you? Anything that doesn't give you an ego boost is a troll? I didn't mean to compare with any other programmes. Stop being a blind nationalist who can't take constructive criricism. And above all stop being an A$$hole
Look at the number of people who've agreed to my post.

Firstly, terming an "R&D" effort as over-expensive isn't a constructive criticism.

Secondly, if you compare DRDO's any programme, it has spent far less than their counterparts around the world. So terming Danush R&D initiative as over-expensive doesn't make sense. It is called "DRDO-Bashing".

And above all stop being an A$$hole

That doesn't mean everyone agrees with you. Learn to take opinions in a constructive manner.

did I say over expensive? Did I even use the words R&D? Let me break this down for you. I said that the dhanush programme, which was intended to be India's Ship launched ballistic missile is going to end up as an expensive tech demonstrator. Which means it wont be inducted. AND IT WONT BE!
Not expensive compared to OTHER PROGRAMS.. Expensive compared to what the cost of a tech demonstrator would be.

Secondly, if you compare DRDO's any programme, it has spent far less than their counterparts around the world. So terming Danush R&D initiative as over-expensive doesn't make sense. It is called "DRDO-Bashing".

Did you just imagine these parts of the conversation?

That doesn't mean everyone agrees with you. Learn to take opinions in a constructive manner.

I've seen your posts. And I know you don't have much tech know how. So I really don't care if people like you agree with me.

I would say Dhanush is a operational Anti-Aircraft carrier Ballistic missile..............

Oh for the love of god. Prithvis do not have terminal stage guidance. The only way they could be an ASBM is if you hope to fire a hundred of them in the approximate area of a ship and hipe the sub orbital ballistic trajectory will guide them to a hit.
You also need real good math.

did u read the news it clearly says

“Dhanush” has a pay-load capacity of 500 kg and is capable of carrying both conventional and nuclear warheads. It can hit both sea and shore-based targets.

And the navy tested DHANUSH not pritvi.............

today india tested 2 missile...1)prithvi and 2) Dhanush

ANd Dhanush can

The 'news' is not a quote from a scientist or government official. It's written by the friggin reporter. You fanboys piss me off. Go read about the dhanush. You need precision terminal stage guidance for an ASBM. The dhanush follows orbital trajectory after initial boost.
And The Dhanush is from the prithvi series you retard.

 

[Markus]

Calm down people.

 

[Kinetic]

The missile can be easily modified into a long range anti-ship ballistic missile, they they didn't already. Prithvi/Dhanush has high accuracy, what it needs is active radar seeker like PAD.

Buddy, it may not be possible to use it as a precision weapon, but can be used to obliteration weapon to destroy an armada of ships over a large area by using high explosive warheads or cluster munition warheads designed for prithvi or to deny access to a particular sea area. Can come handy.

Dhanush, naval surface-to-surface missile, test fired successfullynews
31 March 2007
Balasore: After a few postponements, Indian missile scientists have successfully test-fired the indigenously developed Dhanush missile, a naval, nuclear-capable, version of the Prithvi short-range ballistic missile. The test was carried out in the Bay of Bengal, off the coast of Orissa, on Friday, according to defence sources.

'The missile was test fired in the Bay of Bengal from INS Rajput that was positioned nearly 60 km from the Integrated Test Range at Chandipur at around 2.30 p.m.," defence sources said.

Developed under the Integrated Guided Missile Programme (IGMP) by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), Dhanush reportedly has a 250-km range and can carry a single warhead weighing up to 750 kg.

However, there is no authoritative technical data available about the Dhanush.

It is widely acknowledged to be a version of the already inducted Prithvi surface-to-surface missile system, though there is confusion if it resembles the Prithvi-II or is in fact the Prithvi-III. There is also a debate about the technology that the Dhanush incorporates - if it is a continuation of the Prithvi series or brings in different technologies given its naval profile. It is also not confirmed whether the Dhanush can be deployed only onboard ships or is also capable of submarine deployment.

The range apparently varies between 250-350km, depending on the size of the warhead it carries.

Reportedly, the missile's warheads are nuclear, high explosive, or sub-munitions. It can also be equipped with multiple payloads, to be dispensed by the missile during its flight. The use of high-explosive and sub-munition warhead would enable the Dhanush to be used against airfields, manufacturing complexes, and military units, as well as enemy ships.

Reportedly the missile weighs between 4,000 and 4,600 kg and uses a single-stage, liquid-propellant engine. It is also stated in some quarters that the missile has an accuracy of 50m CEP (circular error probability).

The Dhanush ship-launched version was first tested in April 2000.

The test of Dhanush comes on the back of earlier tests of the indigenous air-to-air missile Astra from the Chandipur test range on March 25, 26 and 29.

can u show a source from where u got ur info on dhanush....
and don't act like a retard by calling others....
