India successfully tested a hypersonic missile-capable vehicle Monday that can move at 6 times the speed of sound. It plans to develop such a missile in 5 yrs.
Unlike his colleagues from the time of the BJS, several of whom became governors and held other constitutional posts, Malhotra chose to lead a quiet and simple retired life after the massive 2014 victory of the BJP.
SEBI probe concluded that purported loans and fund transfers were paid back in full and did not amount to deceptive market practices or unreported related party transactions.
Since 1815, Nepali Gorkhas have served in Indian & British Armies, as well as in Bihar, Bengal & Assam Police. Since Agnipath scheme came in, no Nepal-domiciled Gorkha has enlisted.
What Munir has achieved with Trump is a return to normal, ironing out the post-Abbottabad crease. The White House picture gives us insight into how Pakistan survives, occasionally thrives and thinks.
Well said Santosh. And also for civilian space use i.e launching satellites
India’s growing thirst for achieving the maximum in both nuclear and missile developments is creating a more reformed form of instability paradigm in the region. It’s deep and intense , poised to grow even more concentrated. The developments are mounting and vulnerabilities are increasing. Now interestingly, India is downplaying by joining the Hague code of Conduct (HCoC) against Ballistic Missile proliferation in Vienna. This is an agreement under which legally non-binding confidence building and transparency measures are taken that seek to stop the proliferation of ballistic missiles capable of delivering weapons of mass destruction.
India’s current focus on millitary technology is solely due to blatant expansion of the CCP. Had the PLA not tried to change the status quo India would not have done anything like this.
Not at all.. India’s preparations for China across the border, are quite independent of this test. India has been researching hypersonic technology for many years now. It tested a vehicle in 2019, which was only partly successful. It’s much more to do with India not wanting to be behind the advanced countries of the world. There is also a very strong commercial/civilian dimension to the technology- you can send satellites into space
Rashi, you sound like some American or British think tank analyst .Cold and detached. India is no violator or villain, not by a country kilometre! India is doing this for itself, for both the defense and space sectors.
The prospects of the global arms control regime, to stop hypersonic proliferation seems to be very less likely. This is also evident from the abandonment of the INF Treaty, the ABM Treaty, and the likely fate of New START. Similarly, India’s likely acquisition of hypersonic weapons along with its other counterforce preemptive capabilities vis-à-vis Pakistan would disturb the strategic stability of South Asia. Though Pakistan’s threat perception is mainly inclined towards India, it has relied on a credible nuclear deterrence approach.
Except for a tiny little detail. India is not thinking solely about “South Asia”. India has to consider China and North Korea. India is also not only thinking of military applications of this technology. There is very much a civilian use of the technology for satellite launching.
This is an excellent achievement. All kudos to DRDO and the companies that made it happen.
Strongly encourage india to build the best defense systems.
India is always known to make peace and will use the weapons for self defense and threats.
