Sorry for Answering a question from Year ago, and bring back a dead thread.
But i just happen to be reading some of the comments on the handful on thread i made, and luck would have it i just came across some info to actually answer it this time.
Wind Tunnel Models from when LCA was still...
To quote some one , whom you can't disagree with.
However My own Personal opinnion:
With a payload of only 75kg, It seems to too small to carry munitions , targeting equipment and Fuel. It is highly unlikely that the Rustom can carry missiles. At least Smart missiles
A single Nag Missile...
According to live fist they have yet to release those details.
Only Info we really have on the programme is that
And i quote liveFist on this info
I have not been able to fine more info on this sorry, It might be out there and i just have yet to come across it.
Sorry to disappoint...
Why ?
Tata group probably has its own university in India that could use that much money.
Hell Tata group is free to to what is wants but i just can't get the Rationale behind this.
India's Mini Gas Turbine Engine For UAV/UCAV Programme
India's indigenous minaturised gas turbine technology demonstrator for UAVs/UCAVs. The Gas Turbine Research Establishment (GTRE)
Finally the Vision
The first slide you see shows an unmanned network centric...
I thought i might Write a post about what Rustom is and the Road ahead
This may help clear up some Confusion a lot of people are having.
Aircraft pictured above : Rustom-1 MALE UAV
A smaller derivative Rustom-1, a prototype/technology demonstrator,
Rustom (English: Warrior) is a...
No , this RUSTOM TD only has a payload of 75kg, too small to carry any munitions.
But this aircraft is just the stepping off point for the Rustom H which a much larger aircraft , with possible combat potential.
This UAV also contributes to Project AURA which is an attempt to develop an low...
I remember when George Bush Came , he said forget NSG . From now on you can trade Nuclear materials and reactors.
That worked out very well for India. :lol:
Technology restrictions,
Testing facilities infrastructure,
R&D into new materials
Engineering aircraft from designs
underfunded for the majority of the development
Requirements creep.
The reasons for delays is vast , citing one and pointing to it alone is not very fair.
Every...
Exports are years away , we need to outfit our selves first.
May be if they are willing to help set out additional production lines. But that's unlikely given our lack of experience with large exports
This is way out of the scope of DRDO.
this project will suffer from delays and Budget over runs.
OS development should be handed out to Pvt sector who are specialized in the field.
BE practical here DRDO was not meant to do any of this kind of stuff.
DRDO will eventually look for outside...
This is 50 Billion dollar project.(Long term)
With a Substantial part of the money being pumped into Russian R&D.
Russia invited India for the JV so we the Funding can be sorted can be easier and faster.
The FGFA is as beneficial to the Russians as it is to India.
Russia will use the Funds to...
For all those making their ridiculous arguments against space travel

Engine research , Energy research , Material science , Human Biology.
etc
Have yielded countless benefits to Human life already.

Possible but would China consent .
It's been an Issue of National Pride for China's Manned space Missions.
I would imagine China would want to go at it on her own.
They have never shown intent og carrying other nation's payload on their missions have they.
I firmly believe the Mission to mars...
Anti-riot police are all over ayodhya from day of judgment , prepared for such an outcome , so far no one has come out onto the streets.
India has learned from such things. Adequate measures are being put in place now for such events.
But Extremist elements are the real problem , they will...
Much better unlike Aussie crying about War tunnels
