DRDO has Rafale IR sensor as a more modern solution to compare with.
I am looking forward to seeing it on LCA Mk2 prototypes.

Re: Indian Missiles News & Discussions - 30 June 2022
These missiles are optimised for better performance and higher maneuverability during the second pulse. While they should be able to engage targets during first pulse (a much longer) phase, but I wonder if they can be as effective as a single pulse-only missile. By the 'optimised' I mean the chosen ...

The negative side is larger boosters mean minimum engagement zone gets pushed out further as it won’t be able to intercept while the booster is still attached and running. So you need both. Good point. This is analogo...

We've the technical maturity to integrate any weapon system. But we don't have emotional maturity or the vision to build every subsystem, even when we can. Prior to Atmanirbhar Bharat, it was deemed okay to import subsystems if there's no profit in producing each individual one of these. For example...
