sum, see above. Kakarat already asked that question.

K Mehta

From the slide pictures both missiles looked very similar. So my guess is both are SLBMs. The problem that we face in the area of testing SLBMs is we dont have a sub which can launch a BM, pontoon launches are like ground tests of aircrafts. I guess the other missile can be pontoon tested too. But f...

Was B-04 was the one which was tested recently? when can we expect K-04 etc... no idea, just copied the data from the slides, he just mentioned that "apart from these systems we are also pursuing underwater systems, which I cant go into detail due to classification issues" . By the way so...

K Mehta

conformal sensors !! good news ! :D btw, across the board sensor integration over multiple platforms would require mighty secure datalinks with high data speed to boot. any words on those ? btw, thanks mehta saab for covering this seminar. yes he said we have them and said this was demonstrated dur...

K Mehta

K mehta, no details on the CMs ?? I am afraid not. either I missed it or he didnt cover it. In the later part he went on a lot technical and futuristic, which I couldnt grasp. Talking about conformal sensors, multiple fused sensors. He said that we have already reached mems based sensors in our mis...

Part-II Under water missiles: B-05: 700 Km K-04: 3500 Km. Future SLBM: 6000+Km with telescopic aerospike. Can be launched from ship/sub. Can you tell a little more on this which one? I just wrote the range down of the 1st two from the slides he was showing, he mentioned a bit about the last one, mo...

IIRC the LCH proto is supposed to "Roll out" in october. That is quite different than first flight. Quoting Ashok Baweja talking of 'maiden flight' of LCH planned for end of 2008 http://www.domain-b.com/aero/June/2007/20070620_hal.htm http://www.hindu.com/2007/10/31/stories/20071031620310...

The success of KMGT would have interesting implications. Question to gurus: IF the KMGT succeeds, and the Kaveri for LCA doesnt, but spawns a number of marine engines which would power IN ships, would the investment made in it be worthwhile? I agree that it would have failed the LCA programme but on...

Roll out means roll-out display. The prototype is displayed before the press with the managers sitting on a dais in front of the proto.
Something like this.
F-35B roll out
F-35B roll out
It means that the proto construction is complete. But needs more tests before actual flying can be done.

K Mehta

Back from the lecture. It was verrrryy nice. At the end he showed a 6 min video of AAD interception, too good. Will post the details soon. I have taken a few notes.

Talk by Dr. Saraswat in IISc on 18th July Friday, on future missile directions in India.
Anybody interested?

K Mehta

Is it possible that this fuel probe integration exercise is for the LCA, with Jaguar as the testbed? I feel it is a bit too late for reintegration into Jaguar, esp since darin upgrades have been initiated long back. I wonder what the bump on the lower left side can be.

K Mehta

Arun_S,
Your busy bug bit me too. will mail to you soon.
