Brilliant news!!
More money and sources should be provided for R&D in this sector.
Lasers, DEWs, Energy Shields are the future.

Did not know the Griffin was being tested with the LCA. Interesting.

Do you mean Gripen??

Do you mean Gripen??

Nope. Griffin. Its an LGB kit by IAI. Mainly IAF Jags. Did not know we were trying to fit it to the Tejas.

India as a country is poorer than Sub Saharan Africa. How long will you all use the much needed funds for weapons instead of improving sanitation for eg. Pakistan is richer than you all(per capita) but still wisely use funds for better purpose.

You can see the Griffin being dropped towards the start of this vid:

Yeah right...

WHAT !

Future LOC look

Menwhile good to see TATA lsv in use.

Why do they share so much information on such sensitive projects ???

because those who wanna make is already know about this and might be ahead of us and those which dont know Sci & teach from them these are way above their league / understanding.

Perhaps not the actual apparatus but the support systems and such are developed and in place and it doesn't look like this project is too far from initial testing.

@Water Car Engineer check it out bro!

Yes, very nice indeed.

Also a laser warning system for armored vehicles is developed. So there is another alternative to the Israeli one used in Arjun Mark 2.

LASTEC has designed and developed a laser warning and countermeasure system for Armoured Fighting Vehicle (AFVs). A LWS is capable of handling multiple type of laser threats and has an operational range of more than 6 km for laser designator type of laser threat. After detecting the laser threat along with its direction, it also has the capability to generate trigger signal to activate the grenade launcher for firing of smoke grenade in the direction of laser threat to obscure the platform under threat. Technology of the LWS has been transferred to BEL, Pune.

The laser warning sensors detects the laser radiation processes, determine the PRF and edge matching signals. It comprises of opto-electronic front end, signal processing and conditioning, embedded module for PRF decoding, and edge matching signal.

The master controller receive inputs from multiple laser warning sensors, processes the information and feeds the desired commands to the decoy laser. The master controller comprises of hardware and software module to interface with the laser sensor units and the decoy laser.

Decoy laser is a high energy laser source that takes command from laser warning system and generate a pulsed laser radiation synchronised with the PRF generated by the laser warning system. It is used to illuminate a dummy target to misguide the laser guided bomb on to the dummy target.

The homemade helicopter LWS must be at late stages as well.

And your cause of concern?
