PAD Interceptor
AAD Interceptor
PDV Interceptor
PAD is an exo-atmospheric interception system.Its designed to intercept and destroy targets at 80km altitude.Its a two stage system.Interesting , what are specifications of the PAD interceptor , like what kind of gas pressure it lets out etc , thanks
Rail Track Rocket Sled (RTRS) Penta Rail Supersonic Track a national test
facility was today inaugurated by Shri Avinash Chander, SA to RM,
Secretary Department of Defence R&D and DG DRDO. “India is among a
handful of countries in the world now possessing this unique test facility.
This four kilometer long RTRS Penta track will be extremely useful for the
testing of wide range of critical systems such as payload for manned
missions of ISRO, the navigation system for missiles and aircrafts,
proximity fuses for advanced warheads, fuses for armament systems
parachutes for payload delivery, arrester systems for aircraft such as LCA”,
stated Sh Avinash chander while inaugurated this National Test Facility, in
presence of Dr SS Sundaram, DG(ECS), Dr Satish Kumar, Chief Controller
(TM), Shri Ajay Singh, Chief Executive (CW&E), Sh M Balakrishnan and Sh
V S Sethi , both former directors of TBRL and officers & staff of TBRL.
Later, in his national technology Day address, he stated “I am glad that
today we have added another key facility in TBRL. He also witnessed the
demonstration of several newer advanced warheads”. Lauding the efforts
of TBRL scientists in developing key technologies that are strategically
important for the security of the nation, he said, that the observance of
National Technology Day began with the technologies in which TBRL has
played a key role. He also inaugurated the new building of Ballistics
Vidyalaya, Ramgargh, a school run by DRDO Educational Society and the
“Sampooran Singh Officers Transit Facility", within the premises of TBRL
residential area at Ramgarh.
Describing the RTRS facility, Dr Manjit Singh Outstanding Scientist &
Director TBRL said, “the facility consists of five rails, each having a length
of 4 km, on which a test article can be propelled at supersonic speed with
the help of specially designed rockets. The track built for this purpose is
precision aligned and capable of withstanding high level of loads. The
capability so acquired will accelerate the pace of development of defence
and aerospace technologies and products”.
Lukoskin, a herbal product for Leucoderma developed by DRDO, was launched by Dr. W. Selvamurthy, Distinguished Scientist & Chief Controller Research & Development (Life Science & International Cooperation) today at DRDO Bhawan. The product will be a boon for the patients of Leucoderma and is backed by extensive R&D work by the scientists of Defence Institute of Bio-energy Research (DIBER) (formerly Defence Agricultural Research Laboratory), Haldwani. DIBER, a DRDO laboratory has carried out extensive work in the area of medicinal plant and is also engaged in R&D in generating bio-energy solutions for energy security. The product, Lukoskin, was developed under the leadership of Dr Narender Kumar, Ex Director DARL and his team. Special efforts in the development of this herbal product were made by Dr. P.S. Rawat, ex Head, Herbal Medicine Division and Dr. H.K. Pandey, Scientist presently heading Phyto-Chemistry Division at Pithoragarh. The herbal product will be available in the form of ointment and oral liquid. Dr. Zakwan Ahmed, Director – DIBER, Haldwani and Dr G Ilavazhagan, Director – Life Sciences have pursued the case to bring the product into the market and render much needed service to mankind. This herbal product would be a new hope and boon to the vitiligo affected person. Under the leadership and guidance of Dr. W. Selvamurthy, the ‘Transfer of Technology’ has been granted to the AIMIL Pharmaceuticals (India) Ltd., New Delhi to manufacture and market this research product based on their technological and marketing credentials.
Leucoderma or vitiligo is an idiopathic acquired disorder of skin. Patients with vitiligo develop white spots in the skin with varying size and location. The world wide incidence of leucoderma has been reported 1-2%. In India, its incidence is around 4-5% in some parts of Rajasthan and Gujarat it is very high more than 5-8%. This skin disorder is considered as social stigma in our country and people confuse it with leprosy. The affected individuals are always remain in constant depression with the feeling of being socially outcast. There are many existing remedies of this disorder viz., allopathic, surgical and adjunctive. None of the therapies has satisfactorily cure of this disease. Secondly, these are either costly or single component based, with very low level of efficacy and develop blister, edema, irritation in the skin with the result most of the patients discontinue the treatment. The scientists of DIBER (DRDO) have therefore focused on the causes of disease (aetiology) and researched out a comprehensive formulation for the management of leucoderma from Himalayan herbs by exhaustive scientific studies led to the establishment of the safety and efficiency of the product which extends the benefits on all fronts with very good efficiency. Clinically, the product is quite effective and helps not only in restoring the normal complexion in the affected area but also relieves the affected ones from mental stress, emotional and psychological trauma and thereby, enhancing the confidence and efficiency.
The product was launched by Dr. W Selvamurthy in the presence of Dr. Narender Kumar, Dr. Zakwan Ahmed, Dr. G Ilavazhagan, Mr. KK Sharma, Managing Director, AIMIL Pharmaceuticals and senior officials of DRDO and AIMIL Pharmaceuticals.

LCA Tejas mission simulator inaugurated
March 2, 2008 by Joseph P. Chacko Leave a Comment
Bangalore: Indian indigenous fighter development program moved on to another land mark today. Indian Light Combat Aircraft “Tejas” Real Time Simulator (RTS) has been inaugurated by deputy chief of air staff of Indian Air Force.
Its a giant leap from simple fixed base simulator developed during early nineties which was envisaged to provide design support during the initial phase of LCA development has been fully developed in to a dome based mission simulator which can be used for handling quality evaluation as well as for planning and practicing mission profiles.
DCAS in the LCA Tejas Simulator
The simulator is set up inside a 9 meter diameter dome. The visual cues are generated using 6 synchronized high performance Image Generators (COTS based) and projected on the inner surface of the dome with 6 – Channel projection system giving a seamless out-the-window view for the pilot with a FoV of 180° (Azimuth) x 80° (Elevation). The cockpit is close to the PV2 standard aircraft with actual pilot controls, synthetic instrument panels and various avionics displays like MFDs and SSDUs based on COTS components. The high fidelity flight model runs at 80 Hz frame rate on a dual processor machine under LINUX and RTLINUX Operating subsystem. The audio cues generated include the simulation of aircraft engine noise, tyre screech sound, landing gear thud, etc.
This simulator also provides facility for using a Digital Control Loading Unit (DCLU) for simulating the different force feel characteristics of the pilot control stick. An Instructor monitoring station is used for complete control of the simulator. A touch sensitive monitor located close to the cockpit allows for initiation, running of various configured versions of CLAW, Real Time plots, Insertion of faults etc.
The simulator has been developed by Aeronautical Development Establishment (ADE), Bangalore.
