Low level Light Weight 2D Radar - BHARANI:
Low level Light Weight L-Band 2D Radar is a light weight, battery powered and compact sensor which provides 2D surveillance solution to alert Army Air Defence Weapon Systems mainly in mountainous terrain against hostile aerial targets like UAVs, RPVs, helicopters and fixed wing aircraft flying at low and medium altitudes.
The radar can be transported by vehicles, animal transport or group of men or as helislung loads. It can be dismantled into packages to facilitate quick installation and re-location in mountainous terrain. It will act as an early warner to air defence weapon systems employed to provide protection to vulnerable areas or vulnerable points.
The system consists of radar, Commander Display Unit (CDU) and messaging unit Target Designation Unit (TDU) and Target Data Receivers (TDR). One radar can service upto 10 TDRs using existing combat radio resources/ network. The CDU can be located upto 750m from the radar.
The radar with modular architecture, advanced ECCM features, ruggedness as per Mil standards can be operated in varied conditions including extreme climatic and geographical conditions and in battle field situations, especially offensive EW environment.
The radar detects and tracks short range air-to-ground threats with a high probability of detection. The radar has an integrated IFF that can detect, confirm, classify and attain IFF status on every target in the battle space under surveillance.

Indian Army Seeks Hydrojet Propulsion System for BMP II
In a recent Request for Information (RFI) the Indian Army has asked bids for development of a prototype for Hydrojet/ Waterjet Based Propulsion System for 15 Ton class vehicle.
The technical details include the capability to provide the large displacement vessel BMP-II to propulsion in the open sea. Speed in the range of 10-12 Km per hour or more while fording in the open sea. The propulsion system should be capable of preferably noiseless and vibration less operation for the entire range of operation.
The hydrojet propulsion system may contain hydraulically driven hydro jet preferably two on both side of BMP-II. The power to drive the hydraulic motor may be from main power of BMP-II or additional suitable power pack be provided with propulsion system.
The hydraulic motor should have high starting torque smooth output torque and high speed capability upto 7500 rpm. It should be capable of hi-directional operation. The hydraulic motor should have high pressure shaft seal, should be fitted with heavy duty bearings and should have standard SAE mounting and capable of long life with smooth operation.
The hydrojet propulsion (on both side of BMP) should be capable to propel forward and in reverse motion at a speed of 10-12 kmph .
The hydrojet propulsion system should consist of hydrojet, rudder, and hydraulic activation for rudder screen.

Do you have Google? Just type "Chinese army grenade accident" and see for yourself.

1) That's a policeman in police uniform who's conducting the tests. It's obviously for police force, not Army.
2) Was he selected ?
Army generals surprise late chief’s wife on her 99th birthday
Rajkumari Shrinagesh’s 99th birthday party will stay etched in her memory, thanks to a surprise packed by the Indian Army.
The wife of the army’s third Indian chief, late General SM Shrinagesh, was overwhelmed when three serving generals from her husband’s regiment walked into her Gurgaon flat on Sunday, opening the floodgates of emotions and memories for the nonagenarian.
Her eyes lit up as pipers from the Kumaon regimental band belted out some nostalgia-stirring tunes for the army’s grand old lady. Leaning forward from her wheelchair, she clapped her hands. And then, she broke down.
“This has been an incredible flashback to my army days. I am still married…to the army,” she said.
Shrinagesh, who passed away in 1977, was the army chief from May 1955 to May 1957. The general’s pictures adorn every wall of her home. She has donated his personal effects to the Kumaon Regimental Centre in Ranikhet.
Her granddaughter Ritu Singh said, “The best gift you can give someone is great memories. The army just did that.”
Army’s quarter master general Lieutenant General Om Prakash, additional director general (public information) Major General Bobby Mathews and National Security Guard IG (operations) Major General BS Das --- all from Kumaon Regiment --- showed up at the party.
General Om Prakash, the senior-most officer from Kumaon Regiment, said, “Age has not withered her charm and poise. She’s a link to our glorious past. It’s a privilege to be here.”
The onslaught of time has not dulled the lady’s faculties, and certainly not her wit.
She recalled how General Shrinagesh did not talk to her for a month after Pandit Nehru tapped her knee during a conversation. “He was extremely possessive. I asked him to keep me in a glass cabinet,” she said.
Army chief General Bikram Singh and his wife Bubbles sent her a bottle of champagne, flowers, a card and a cake that read “from all officers of YOUR army.”
