To me, it looked like during Rough Braking, the target min velocity was not reached. If I heard correctly, they were expecting around 140 m/s velocity at the end of rough braking but the actual speed was greater than 200 m/s...but then I saw many scientists clapping...so though performance was naarm...

^^The technology to connect multiple engines, its called Multiple Units (MU) is quite developed & safe to say. In fact, in NA, it is not uncommon to have up to 5-6 locomotives connected and all operated by the driver (or loco pilots/engineers) in the lead locomotive. The controls set in the lead...

Nope. WAP7 was originally limited to 130 due to reasons mentioned by arshyam. Actually, I believe WAP5 (just the loco) can do 225 with suitable modifications. Don't think IR has ever tested it beyond 184 though...

The CLW team has been hell bent on competing with ICF (Train-18/20) on semi-high speed prospects of IR. So far they have the following developmental projects going on or in commission stage: 1. Aerodynamic improvements to WAP-5 to make it suitable for 200 Kph operations 2. WAP-7HS (High Speed): To u...

If IAF wants HAL to work like a efficient company, it should make timely payments. Only if payments are delayed due to some contractual issues then it would be HAL’s fault. Timely payments allow for circulation of money and materials and so IAF should try to be more responsive ( if HAL is telling t...

HAL had a working demo of automatic main rotor blades folding system at the recent AI 2019. Was pretty impressive and I was told that system fits & works even inside a hangar (can't think of the actual naval term for this :)) on the ship. HAL folks also said they are confident of the system work...

Per some Tweets, Pakis have evaluated T-90MS and it is their preferred choice. The Chinese & Ukrainian tanks are not longer under consideration apparently.

Tsarkar, thanks for clarifying the status of R-77 variants...Russians made it seem like its operational. Anyways, Astra & SDFR are the future...

Zynda

So it seems like we are ordering the same R-77 (not even R-77-SD which RuAF uses) or is it DDM @ work? Any ideas why IAF is not considering SD variant?

Now Shiv Aroor on Livefist twitter feed is also saying that today's HSTDV test was not a success.

No, India's first test of a hypersonic air vehicle was not a success -- but flight testing an advanced capability system is fraught with risk. Our full report on gains, scenarios and what comes next

Vishu Som is reporting that HSTDV did not manage to light up after separation from Agni-1 and the outcomes of the test were not as expected.

^^It is intentional...the changes mentioned are being carried out not because there is anything wrong with Nirbhay (AFAIK)...can't say anything more than this here.

Zynda

Do we need to go to Russia for the above to happen? Doesn't Derby need to speak with Bars to exploit the missile's capability as much as possible? Or do we have the necessary Bars source codes for the above to happen?

Zynda

IR you are correct...engine is not PTAE variant...much smaller like you have mentioned. Heard it is not Indian though...will try to dig up some more info if possible.

Probably a variant of PTAE-7...for Abhyas.
