canister launch in 2 years time
Re: Indian Missiles and Munitions Discussion
It was spot on the path. It proves all the parameters and capabilities of missile. It'll take another 2 years to re validate these parameters.: Dr. Avinash Chander, Scientific Adviser to RM
Re: Indian Missiles and Munitions Discussion
Avinashji - Perfect launch and splash down. Reentry technology mastered. Outstanding accuracy. Ships captured visuals of reentry and splashdown. Were very close to point of impact. cep def less than 100 m.
Re: Indian Missiles and Munitions Discussion
So was this road-mobile or rail-mobile since the Tarmak videos showed a rail engine pulling the TEL into place on a set of tracks?Ganapathi Deva wrote:this a TEL launch

Talk about accuracy @ ~ 5000 km!

I hope they realse the visuals of RV splashing down...that would be one hell of image
Re: Indian Missiles and Munitions Discussion
wonder if boost glide took place or plain parabolic...

Re: Indian Missiles and Munitions Discussion
Avinash Chander's voice says it all. Congratulations!!
Next key steps as noted by him: canisterized launch and re-validation of key parameters.

Koti Namaskarams to fellow SDRE scientists, for successfully finding the exact address and delivering the flowers!
Re: Indian Missiles and Munitions Discussion
the RV splashdown would be good to watch only if launch had taken place last night. would be a blazing line of light coming from the sky.

Re: Indian Missiles and Munitions Discussion
This is most likely a depressed trajectory parabolic (that is not shot at an optimum angle). All the talk about "mastering RV technology" indicates a truly hellish reentry regime for this test (since RV spends lot of time in atmosphere during ascent as well as descent for a depressed trajectory)RoyG wrote:wonder if boost glide took place or plain parabolic...

It couldn't have been the fastest ever Indian missile any other way.

Agni-V is on its way,
To warn the Beijing boors,
Watch out! It's coming up yoors!
Great work DRDO and the missile team,our gratters all round.
PS:Now to quickly develop the submarine version of A-V!

Re: Indian Missiles and Munitions Discussion
Admiral Menon claims simulated explosion at the terminal phase, implying a range of tests achieved in a single mission.
Re: Indian Missiles and Munitions Discussion
Hmm....I never deviated from the official quote on the range.....but for the first time here i'm taking a step out of the official line. Indeed, this is a 8000 + km puppy, sorry giant.RoyG wrote:Dodged question on range lol.....5000+ range for sure. Fastest missile in our inventory.
Re: Indian Missiles and Munitions Discussion
Sadly the NDTV anchor in this video typifies the Indian sense of inadequacy and anxieties about Indians and Indian tech when he says "You must have been very worried last light and maybe you did not sleep" That is painting an assumed picture which typically illustrates one's own anxieties about the possibility of failure.
After a successful commando raid you can ask the commando "How did it feel. Were you scared?" and let the man speak his mind. You do not say "You must have been shitting brix and wet your pants" The development of a national sense of confidence depends on the media in not putting their own anxieties in their words
"China issues a demarche. India worried"
"India anxiously asks the Chinese what they are doing"
China roars. Pakistan gives an angry retort. India cheeps. India chrips.
This is how our media talk and they reflect Indians in India talking about India
Re: Indian Missiles and Munitions Discussion
5000+ doesn't necessarily mean 5000 to 6000. Technically it can be any number > 5000
Re: Indian Missiles and Munitions Discussion
AoA onlee The capability to instant launch satellites is another capability I hadn't thought of. Congrats DRDO!!!

Re: Indian Missiles and Munitions Discussion
Bade, That means the fuze was functioned after re-entry. The best news would be that Raksha Mantri and a service chief in the loop that would be the CC chain.
Re: Indian Missiles and Munitions Discussion
shiv ji, you would make millions if you can conduct classes for our ddm folks.
btw, that chinese article sounds like reading some software requirements document.

Re: Indian Missiles and Munitions Discussion
simulated explosion using conventional HE or a smoke bomb is good. in real life a radar altimeter is supposed to work for a 1.5km altitude airburst as all n-weapons are generally denotated up in the air for max effects.
3 x BGRV and 400KT each in the style of topol-M would be awesome. given our lowish warhead inventory, a 10X mirv poses problems in headcount....I want HD video of it next time as the yellow line of flame screams across the sky from horizon to horizon. cancel christmas, get those HD vidcams and the D800s onsite!

Actually, the report sounds very very childish. There is no maturity in the article whatsoever.SaiK wrote: btw, that chinese article sounds like reading some software requirements document.

In Wings of Fire, Kalam writes about the 5000km ICBM as the IGMP's goal set in 1984.
BTW, I heard he used to show trajectory calcs to Vikram Sarabhai in the mid sixties! So that is the heritage. In those days he was known as the crazy young man with a mop of hair who had instant access to the big chief!

Re: Indian Missiles and Munitions Discussion
Ramana, was surprised to hear that from the Admiral first, but then he should know and must be in the loop. It was nice of Dr Chander to give a longish interview and it said all, that us aam aadmi need to know.

Na na Ramana ji, this missile not for China, India China Bhai Bhai, we only want to hit Pakistan, just that we will now be able to hit Pakistan from South China Sea, which off course is Public Property.
