Indian rockets are cheaper than their Chinese counterparts because they mostly use solid fuel not liquid fuel like most Chinese vehicles use. China's space program is not built for cost effectiveness. No wonder all customers are coming to india instead.

It is generally a good idea to not use 100% of a rockets capability within the first couple of launches. This gives some margin for underperformance or other issues that may pop up. I read somewhere ISRO has already began the process of increasing GSLV MK-3 GTO payload capacity from 4 tons to...

I am well aware that unha-3 is the taepodong-2. However the unha 3 does not have a reentry vehicle which is necessary for an icbm. It is because of this it is no longer classed as a missile. Its like saying indian pslv is icbm just because it can launch satelites....

Leave it to chinese to brag about their growth on a thread about indian economy. What i can say is this: Modi has to go. I think he will be destroyed in 2019 elections. One can hope.

I am talking about ballistic missile you are talking something else. Understandable why when a country with 1/10th your gdp is outclassing you...... You asked for video here is one of pukguksong-2 launch from NK this February: Now answer this question. Does pakistan have this technology? If...

Your source IS outdated as it contains "missiles" that have been since proven to be SLV's. Here is a more up to date source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korean_People%27s_Army_Strategic_Force (Scroll down to active missiles). You can do web search for test footage from these missiles if you...

I see ISRO has upped its game when it comes to these curtain raiser vids. About time.

That information is outdated. Fact is north korea's ballistic missile/SLV and nuclear programs have been moving at a rapid pace since 2015. There used to be a time where north korea was since as a joke by the west but that slowly is being replaced by fear. North korean advancements since 2015...

Does US not understand if they strike north korea it will strike back? North Korea has hundreds of Rodong and Musdan missles which can be tipped with explosive/nuclear/chemical warhead and fired at south korea or japan at any time. I think if donald trump goes ahead with striking north korea...

I would say yes. - USA will only continue to push around countries like North Korea and Iran until they realise there are consequences for their actions - Various countries in the region are already armed with nuclear weapons (Pakistan,China,India and Russia) - Countries with nuclear warheads...

We have mastered the staged combustion cycle. The CE-7.5 engine that powers the upper stage of the GSLV MK-2 is a staged combustion cycle and as such is one of the most efficient upper stage engines in the world. Furthermore the SCE-200 kerolox engine we are developing will be a oxidiser rich...

ISRO successfully carried out its indigenously developed cryogenic engine-D stage test at its liquid propulsion complex at Mahendragiri in the district today. ISRO Chairman A S Kiran Kumar said "the full duration flight test of cryogenic upper stage for GSLV-Mk III was successful." The...

Wonder when we will see this missile in north korea and/or pakistan?

Upcoming missions: Orbital launches: GSLV MK-2/GSAT-9 - Late March GSLV MK-3/GSAT-19E - Early April PSLV-C38 - Early May Experimental: Pad abort test - before end of march Engines: CE-20 final test - Feb 17 SCE-200 - End of year High power satellites: GSAT-17 (3400kg) GSAT-11...

Perhaps you should ask your university students. Maybe they can explain to you the cubesat concept! One should never expect anything but complete assburn come out of china when india succeeds in anything. Such comments should incredible jealously/insecurity on the part of china. As indians we...

Because India and China both want to rule the world

Why not drop this missile and just develop a submarine variant of agni 5 or 6? Better range and more cost effective.

Lol. You CAN test reentry tech on a suborbital flight. The crew module reentered from 120km height, that is high enough to simulate conditions accurately as if it were reentering from orbit. For the past 3 launches yes. Even PSLV had failures in its early days. By all intents and purposes it...

Suborbtial test was to validate parachute system and reentry technology. Orbital test flights of Crew module + service module will be done in coming years. Its called the semiconductor laboratory. Google it and click first link. Since January 5th 2014. Do you know what a technology...

Sure try to run before you can walk. Just stay away from russian launch vehicle this time. :omghaha: The technology to deploy a four ton comsat or a 4kg satellite is largely the same. Besides if it is so easy why has no one else launched so many sats in one go? Mind backing this up with some...
