India successfully test-fired Brahmos from Su 30 fighter aircraft; Russia asked for Rs 1,300 crore for missile integration, Indian companies did it in Rs 80 crore.
Rao took an incredibly bold decision which the BJP, locked in a bitter electoral battle with him, was suspicious of, but did not make an issue of, in the national interest.
Assam CM can’t celebrate that the Congress drew a blank in the Bodoland Territorial Council polls in 2010 as well as 2015, and bagged only one in 2020.
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.
In post on social media, Cooper narrated experience of MiG-21 researcher from Germany who wanted to attend aircraft’s farewell ceremony in India, and the roadblocks he faced.
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.
It is quite laudable for HAL and industry for having successfully carried out modifications of Su-30 and Brahmos locally and save possible outgo of 1300 crores in FE for integration of the missile on Su platform. However making much of absorbing development cost or waiving off profit presumably 10% (?) of cost makes not much impact -this being merely book transfer only.
As far integration of Brahmos on the aicraft is concerned, all steps like store safe separation by CFD analysis using standard program, if required wind tunnel testing to authenticate store separation ( recalling such test was done 50 years back at NAL Blore in trisonic wind tunnel for adaptation of an AA missile on MiG 21). In any case store separation from hardpoints with ERU’s does not pose much problem. Aspect of possible surging of engines when rockets fire in viscinity of aircraft after release?
Last but not the least Brahmos as per info in Wikipedia costs $2.73 million ie about Rs 16.5 crores each. Is it not the cost to benefit ratio too askewed to carry a payload of only 300 kg? Brahmos USP is its high KE which be used against hard tragets but then its warhead must be designed to withstand stresses while penetrating say reinforced concrete and deliver the charge at the target.
Kudos to engineers and technicians at HAL and team of Brshmos. They have created a great technological achievement. India has grown from period not from last 3 years as claimed by few psychopants. India has developed in technology and infrastructure of PSUs they should be encouraged.
Kudos to HAL & Bramhos teams and all the companies and technical staff who made this possible. However Its not right that the Bramhos CEO who would have spend 1300 Cr to Russia got the job done for 80Cr as a loss to HAL and maybe countless companies. This is where we are destroying india entrepreneurs and investor interest in indian PSU. They should have paid a proper amount , if not 1300 Cr so as to spur companies and know how, as that will have a much greater impact on the country and economy, than the limited but important technical achievements that this project has enabled. We have missed the woods for trees !!! hope defence ministry never makes this mistake again to pay less!!
Please make sure Tejas project is successfully executed that enables a mark in the history of indegenious fighter technologies. REQUESTING IAF to support wholeheartedly no matter what. After all who else can support apart from IAF
If ISRO can be a world leader in its specific expertise, then no reason why HAL cannot do it. Indian clever have been teaching aeronautical engineering for long. A proper military-industry set up will help absorb and polish this talent further.
Kudos to the achievement of integrating BrahMos to Su-30 at such a rock bottom costs!
Congratulations to HAL engineers and Shri Pillai for demonstrating national capabilities.

So proud of this development. May India be superpower based on its own capabilities.
India should match China in aircraft technology . countries respect only others who have strength
We are really proud n Hats off to HAL, IAF, n more over Central Govt…
We sud develope these skills for our Make In India..
We are proud of our scientist and we are slute to HAL Chairman and Bramos project Chairman and our companies.

Great achievement of HAL. HAL can take up any challenge provided believe in HAL and allow to upgrade it’s technology and give freedom to do so.
If ISRO can be a world leader in its specific expertise, then no reason why HAL cannot do it. Indian clever have been teaching aeronautical engineering for long. A proper military-industry set up will help absorb and polish this talent further.
