Anti Ballistic Missile Ashwin testfired successfully

No matter how much of local content you add to T 90 or Sukhoi 30, they would remain Russian products. If Foxconn makes Apple iPhones (fully indigenous to China) the product does not belong to Foxconn. Sure, they can sell it, but the brain trust behind making the product belongs to Apple.

T 90 and Sukhoi 30 have been "indianized" but it was built by russia as per specifications given by India.

truly indigenous products need to have design and dev both in house. The Indian Aircraft carriers, Frigates and Corvettes are probably the most "indigenous" in the Indian line up.

you are absolutely right these are russian products even if we will be able to produce 100% here but this can't be said about AAD.

Please enjoy, older test -

@Water Car Engineer


Does this mean , TATRA 8x8 with 4 interceptor missiles type system ?

They were showing off a model of it in def expo -

Which is basically the same as Prahaar launcher, which in itself is a derivative of the AAD.

A S300 type long range SAM system is being made as well.

LOL.. Now We will make an Afridi missile ..buhahaha

We can expect chinese missile test in pakistan.India has several failed test, but pakistan have none and they have 100% successful track record compared to even US,Russia,India and china in this case.I am totally surprised how a country could not able to build an SLV,can achieve leaps and bounds in missile technology.

Even Iran and North Korea have developed SLVs and do launch indigenous satellites with them .

No, Barak 8 is effective against Ballistic missiles too if not Barak 8ER will do complete job against AShM ballistic missiles.

barak is anti-ballistic as well ? are you sure about this?
isnt barak's range a lil too less . even the er version is apparently 100-120 km right ? and the flight altitude is also not enough for ballistic missile interceptions .

if JF -17 is pakistani, then this missile is Indian as well. If Google or Apple hires engineers from other countries, the product belongs to Google or Apple not to the engineers.
Hasnt India been working on AAD since like 2008 or something? does Barak fit into any of the AAD roles?
I think the Indian thinking is this:
all higher powered and superior fire power would be imported (Rafale, Barak, reapers, T 90, Sukhois so on)
some high/medium fire power to be joint ventures (howitzer type guns, sub based missiles)
most lower end fire power to be local produce (insas guns, LCA, CMs and BMs)

they are trying to move up the value chain.

CMs and BMs , nukes aren't exactly lower end fire power . They are game changers techs . Its more about priorities . No matter how sophisticated planes and tanks are ,they will always come below missiles and nukes .

Prove it,

The airframe is of semi-monocoque structure, crafted predominantly of aluminium alloys. High durability steel and titanium alloys are partly used in some crucial areas.

After Insas, Akash, Nirbhay, LCA, Kaveri this missile is as usefull as a indian built inflatable dinghy made of cheese

Unless of course they had israeli and russian
"Technical advisors"

LOL.. Now We will make an Afridi missile ..buhahaha
