NO major project

though the national electronics complex at nescom seems promising

bt why is the budget so small
we are giving 910billions to Army..and just 34millions to R&D related stuff


it only equals to 34millions USD

 

[Ignited Mind]

Wouldn't the money be better spent on power plants?

 

[farhan_9909]

in 2010..suparco alone budget was close to 7billions PKR

combine with NESCOM it should had been atleast 20-25billions PKR

 

[SamranAli]

too much low budget.

 

[Hyperion]

How much is Rs3.25 Billion in USD? Seems like a paltry sum!

 

[VCheng]

How much is Rs3.25 Billion in USD? Seems like a paltry sum!

About 34 million dollars.

 

[Hyperion]

Crap Research budget for 34 post doctoral students.. Screw this

About 34 million dollars.

 

[AZADPAKISTAN2009]

Low budget ...should be 10 billion dollars, at least

 

[Bratva]

Guys don't understand the dynamic of our R and D budget. It's just a official budget, Unofficially they get more than what is shown on papers.

this is not for new upcoming projects but for the completion of already running projects so the amount is in accordance to what is required.

The development projects of SUPARCO included, development of a Compact Antenna Test Range, Development of Various Laboratories for National Satellite Development Program, Development of Logistic Support Facilities for National Satellite Development Programme, Altitude and Orbital Control System Centre, Development of a Satellite Assembly Integration and Test Facility, Remote Sensing Date Transmission Facility and Development of Satellite Environmental Validation and Testing Facility.

Also note the development of Remote Sensing Data Transmission Facility, Laboratories for National Satellite Development Program, Altitude and Orbital Control System Centre, development of a Satellite Assembly Integration and Test Facility and Satellite Environmental Validation and Testing Facility points to the upcoming Remote Sensing Satellite System program, with the satellite launch proposed for 2014
http://www.defence.pk/forums/pakist...an-remote-sensing-satellite-system-prsss.html and the commitment to the National Space Program 2040, SUPARCO is also planning to launch a new communication satellite in the BADAR series, remember this is not be be confused with the Remote Sensing PRSSS scheduled for 2014 but this is BADAR series communication satellite http://www.defence.pk/forums/pakist...rog-2050-space-prog-2040-a-3.html#post3125122
