Retired General Talat Masood, a defence analyst, told media it would be able to hit targets up to 2,500 to 3,000 kilometres (1,550 to 1,850 miles). well... the range makes sense. let me explain to you all. range of the missile: 1000km range of the truck carrying the missile: 1500km range of bullock...

i remember reading some article long back in which Dr. saraswat mentioned that in indian missiles payload weight and range function is not significant. and drdo is constantly saying agni 5 range is restricted to 5000km only. again there are reports saying its apogee is 900km. this is also not fittin...

what is advantage of vertically launched missile over a inclined launched in case of ship based missile?

I have some fantasy/idea too :) A semi/full submersible vessel with minimal detectability carrying a single BMos with average range capable of traveling a little distance or loiter an area after being launched from a parent Sub/Ship/Plane. Once it gets its co-ordinates from a Sat/AEW down link, it ...

^^^To me, they look like settings to be put in place before using the main sight. just think of a point and shoot camera where you can see on its screen and can select picture mode as normal, sepia, black & white, inverted etc. consider the gunner is looking using normal optical mode and senses...

OK. Gentlemen, since I have irrefutable upper hand in this, let me pontificate. I have been INSIDE the ARJUN (eat your hearts out...evil laugh..hahahaha) and I have put my eye on that monocle.

The headrest is essentlal. The head must always be steady relative to the sight and "physically connected" to the sight. For a sniper/rifleman - the cheek rests against the grip. In this case it is the forehead. Putting one's eye socket directly against a sight in a moving/heaving tank me...

I don't think the designers are as dumb as you seem to be alleging based on one poor quality photo. Do you believe they would have goofed this up? definitely not. they must have done some study before positioning the switches there. i am just thinking from the comfort point of view. i hope you may ...

adityadange

The "black-thing" is where the forehead rests while the gunner sees through the sight - the one you're referring to as knob. Ah it's clear now. That means there are several centimeters of space between the eyepiece that sticks out and the gunner can actually see the switches with his left...

yes. they seem to have round front portion and cover for pylons where the dummy rocker pods are attached.

That's not an "IFR Probe" (not sure if there's any such thing)- its an airspeed calibration probe. It sticks out clear beyond the "dirty" air under the main rotor and measures the airspeed. The Yellow pylon mounted things are (temporarily located) aircraft airspeed probes. oh! i...

well that is correct but my question is if the switches are covered with face then gunner will definitely have problem operating them. maybe they train him to operate them with face only

chackojoseph wrote:Arjun Tank Mk 1 gunners Sight

if the gunner is looking into the sight (specially using the right eye) whouldnt it be hard for him to operate any switch that are placed to the left side as the face will cover the switches.

afaik only the Pune based Jaguar IM unit ever used Sea Eagle (barring the IN Sea Kings and IL38). the Sea harriers did not use it apparently. I guess its still in service until a similar option is funded like harpoon or some israeli equivalent. never heard of air launched klub...such a huge missile...
