Nirbhay cruise missile fails midway

[Donald Trump]

Our Pakistani friends seem to be having a field day! There are celebrations I believe slated for tonight!

 

[Leviza]

LOL

This is the height of love for the land guys..

even the missile does not leave the great india and they should consider it as a successful test .. any army invading india should consider that they can be hit by nirbhay ...

 

[zeetr]

well at least the fearless tried to rise rather than crying about yahood o hanud sazish and blaming others for the fruits of there own blunders plunders and surrenders

RISE AND RISE AGAIN
untill
COWS tranform into a BEEF BURGER

Well if you can't make things on your own then sling crap at others.
You gotta feel good some how.

But there was a thread that It was successful test just after launch

about a successful launch not successful test !

That's a Russian missile buddy. Sorry to disappoint you.

sorry to disappoint you ....... It is a joint venture ....... with Indian contributions to it unlike some other jv projects you hear about .

 

[Maarkhoor]

No work
No missile
Only Madrassa
museum with no missile

Nirbhay noose dived at beach not because of its faults but because buty on beach...someone wanted a closer look....hence blame on nirbhay bhai.

Yup you are right..Other JV projects are not only "Paint in India"...!

Good news we found few more bugs which will lead to s cruze missile crash.

To all the Pakistani jumping like deranged monkeys and celebrating non Failure of there projects, well no country on this planet was able to achieve anything significant without Failure. Rather it is necessary to have Failures for success.

mmmmm. ok… this isn't the first time a nirbhay missile failed. a similar acutance happen before, but that self destructed upon command.
well developing weapons is always a learning curve, you have your successes and you have your failures. i think this missile was either a batch test or acceptance testing. it isn't in service yet so its likely thats its undergoing testing before service, it is typical for the client (IA) to want improvements which in this case may be reducing the CEP which is what may have caused the missile to crash, more in particular the gyro, as it never said the missile exploded but it nose dived which the gyro plays a part in the stability of the missile. either that or it may be software error, where the missile may go into its terminal impact (nose dive) trajectory very early.

this will no doubt slow down the nirbhay project. and temporary halt india's ambitions to have a nirbhay alcm, slcm and sbvlcm.

but i do have concerns though. its quiet strange to find a company like drdo to make a product that fails. drdo produces the agni missile series and they haven't failed so far, so why is this different ?

Lots of new things. Low, slow flight. Terrain hugging. More complex navigation and final targeting intelligence.

India made no contribution to it. Is is a derivative of a previous missile. Indians only contributed some money to it. Stop taking credit for others efforts.

SO you can say, "Missile Sharam Say Doob Mara "

The first two tests of the cruise missile were conducted on March 12, 2013 and October 17, 2014. The first test was only a partial success. “Our previous test was successful where all the critical phases were completed, and the mission parameters met. It will take us a couple of more tests before Nirbhay gets operational clearance,” a top DRDO source told

DRDO sources also confirmed that Nirbhay missile can carry nuclear warheads. The version currently being tested is a land version, being fired from a road-mobile launcher. There are plans to develop the Nirbhay for naval and air platforms as well

Developed by the DRDO’s Aeronautical Development Establishment Bengaluru, Nirbhay uses autopilot and navigation technologies developed for Nishant and Rustom UAVs. The two-stage missile — it takes off vertically like a conventional rocket and then takes a 90 degree turn to come into horizontal flight, or ‘cruise mode’ — flies at the treetop level to avoid detection by enemy radars. A flight speed of 900-1,000 kilometres per hour allows the missile to manoeuvre and navigate its way precisely to the target.

India had developed the Brahmos supersonic cruise missile with Russia but it had to go alone for developing the Nirbhay, which has a range of 1,000 kilometres. This is because of the Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR), which forbids its signatory countries from assisting or providing technology to any other country developing a cruise missile with a range of 300 kilometres or more. The range of Brahmos has thus been capped at 295 kilometres, just under the limit set by MTCR.
