Not saying it cant put the system on the TATA truck. It has carried heavier systems. But just that the image looks fake, superimposed.

Mumbai, Oct 12, 2016 (PTI)
Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar today said he expects another Rs 50,000-60,000 crore worth of defence contracts to be signed during the remaining quarters of the financial year, taking the total orders to Rs three trillion since he took charge two years ago.

"During the past 23 months that I have been in charge, we have signed contracts worth Rs 2.2 trillion. Recently, we signed a letter of intent with a government-run shipyard for about Rs 32,000 crore, taking the total orders to Rs 2.5 trillion."

"Over the next six months, I hope to sign another Rs 50,000-60,000 crore worth of contracts, taking the total 3 trillion," the minister told reporters on the sidelines of an industry exhibition on technology and material sciences in Navi Mumbai near here.

The Cabinet Committee on Security had in August cleared a proposal to get Goa Shipyard build mine counter measure vessels for the Navy at an estimated cost of over Rs 32,000 crore.

Answering a question on the impact of the manufacturing push with private participation in the defence space, he said exports have jumped over six-times to Rs 3,000 crore from Rs 500 crore in the past two years alone.

"The Make in India initiative has seen defence exports from Rs 500 crore to Rs 3,000 crore, though the ministry figures will show only Rs 2,100 crore. One reason for this is that export of aviation sector items are not included in this as it has been delicensed."

Parrikar explained that the Defence Ministry tabulates only those goods that are in the licensed segments. As many 65 per cent of defence sub-segments are de-licensed now and are, therefore, not in the information list of the defence ministry.

"If we include the gains from the offset clause, our defence-related exports should be about USD 1 billion, out of which defence items alone are worth Rs 3,000 crore, which I hope to increase it to Rs 10,000 crore soon," he said.

When asked about the inflows through the FDI route after foreign director investment cap was hiked to 49 per cent, he said so far it has been about USD 100 million but will go up as foreign capital flows in at stages.

Parrikar also said the ministry is finalising a new strategic materials policy so that we can promote production as well as storage of defence-related strategic materials.

"We have set up a study team to draft a new strategic materials policy to promote the sector, which involves production and storage of these materials," he said.

Garuthmaa, the 1,000-kg winged smart glide bomb, was tested for its maximum 100-km range. Top DRDO officials termed the tests as a 'major success'.

'Garudaa', the non-winged version of this guided bomb with a range of 30 kilometres was tested initially three years back.

Highly placed sources in the Union ministry of defence shared exclusively that the SAAW was successfully test launched from a Jaguar aircraft towards the fag end of first quarter of May by the Aircraft & amp; Systems Testing Establishment (ASTE) in Bangalore.

Officials shared that this SAAW weighs around 125-150 kgs and has a strike distance of 80-100 kms.




Desi Spice!!

This is the non-winged glide bomb, Garudaa. The Glide bombs seem to be GPS/INS guidance only, no EO or SALH guidance.

The photo you've posted is of the PG Kit for 1000lb HSLD/NG-LGB similar to the SPICE 2000 but having SALH guidance instead of EO along with GPS/INS guidance and on a 1000lb bomb body instead of 2000lb bomb body (SPICE 1000 is winged).

Please check out Page 4 of this tech focus article.

A next generation smart bomb with a stand-off range of 50 km now appears to be under development. There would undoubtedly be teething problems. But if DRDO persists and rekindles user confidence, it could help IAF usher in a new era of capability.

Since Spice 2000 also has a stand-off range of 60km from high altitude launch and the NG-LGB is almost of similar layout it's quite possible they're talking about NG-LGB range here.

Genius cant you see the empty magzines ?

When one intends to troll, they will find a way in every post. Countering them with even simple logic is like reasoning with a monkey. You may, eventually reason with it, if it is a simple enough logic, but you will have spent considerable amount of time and resources. Resources that are not worth the weight of the said monkey in gold.

This statement just revealed the fact u've obviously have never handled a firearm before. Otherwise, you would have known that 1 of the most important aspect of comming into close contact with firearms, irregardless of whether they are empty or not- is to NEVER face the muzzle against any1.
