Concern Agat to cooperate with Pipavav shipyard
Russian defence holding Concern Morinformsystem-Agat has signed several memoranda of cooperation with the Pipavav Shipyard, one of India’s largest shipbuilding companies, Mariya Vorobyova, an Agat spokeswoman told RIR at the Defexpo India 2014.
“With Pipavav Shipyard we have signed several memoranda on various aspects of our activities, particularly on marine shipbuilding and radio systems, Vorobyova said. “We have ideas for joint development of new and more promising industries, such as robotics and high-speed surface shipbuilding. The Indian company is geared up for joint work. We have many common areas. A working group will be created, and we will work within it, while complying with Russian legislation.
She noted that Defexpo 2014 is the first international exhibition where Morinformsystem Agat presented itself as a single concern. “Our goal here is to restart our operations in India, taking into considerations that the country has adopted new principles of procurement. We started a new relationship with our traditional partners, we became acquainted with new companies, new businesses, including private ones,” Vorobyova said.
Agat also held negotiations with well-known Indian shipbuilding companies like Mazagon Dock Ltd and is also eyeing cooperation with Defence Research & Development Organisation (DRDO).
Vorobyova said that instruments, developed by entities within the Morinformsystem Agat, are part of all the ships, transferred by Russia to India, including the INS Vikramaditya.
The organisation engages in a wide range of works – from manufacturing radar and sonar systems to designing the so called Combat Information and Control Systems (CICS) that control all kinds of maritime strike missile and artillery weapons, ship-borne and ground-based.
Among export products produced by Scientific Production Association Agat, the core enterprise of the Concern, and other enterprises under Agat umbrella, are Club-S and Club-N Missile Ship-borne Firing Control Systems for submarines and for surface ships respectively, MR-123 and Puma (5P-10) Artillery Systems, radar Stations, combat Information and control systems for surface ships and submarines and Bal-E coastal missile systems.

Akash Missile Model at DefExpo 2014 Showing Missile's Integrated Ramjet Rocket Propulsion
Akash Missile Model at DefExpo 2014 Showing the Missile's Integrated Ramjet Rocket Propulsion
Bharat Dynamic Limited (BDL) displayed a model of the Akash showing the missile's unique propulsion system based on what was employed by the Russians for the SA-6 missile.
The ramjet-rocket propulsion combination provides thrust to the missile right through to target engagement, ensuring the missile can maneuver at high G till impact. The missile is initially propelled by its solid fuel rocket motor. When the solid fuel burns out completely its containers serves as the combustion chamber for the ramjet engine.
Most other surface-to-air missiles, including the U.S. Patriot and the Russian S-300 series, use solid-fuel rocket propulsion.
The all weather Akash features a digitally-coded command guidance system and a 60-kg warhead.
The fully-automated Akash has an 88% kill probability within a specified kill zone and DRDO claims it has intercepted a target with a 0.02 sqm radar cross-section (a fighter has a 2 sqm)
According to DRDO, the missile is capable of engaging cruise missiles.
Akash is supported by multi-target and multi-function phased array fire control radar called 'Rajendra' that has a range of about 60 km.
The Akash missile system is mobile, with the missile launcher, radar and command center all mounted on T-72 chassis.

Aleesha Low Level Light Weight Radar
BEL Developed Aleesha Low Level Light Weight Radar (LLLR) at DefExpo 2014
BEL displayed the first production version of its Aleesha Low Level Light Weight Radar (LLLR) at DefExpo 2014. The radar is on order by the IAF, which is aiming to achieve gap free surveillance of Indian airspace.
Aleesha is a S-Band, 3D, light weight, battery powered radar with a compact sensor which provides 3D surveillance. This PESA radar uses multiple beams with electronic scanning to automatically detect and track threats - fighter aircraft, UAVs and helicopters (even if hovering) - at low and medium altitudes.
Being light weight, compact and rugged, Aleesha can be rapidly deployed at vantage points such as mountain tops and high rise buildings in urban areas
Low power consumption allows the radar to be battery operated, while mechanical ruggedness facilitate operation in extreme climatic conditions.
The easily transportable radar integrates IFF and can be remotely operated from as far away as 750m to ensure operator safety. The radar can be networked with air defense assets or other radars.

Schilka ZSU-23-4 Upgrade
BEL's Schilka ZSU-23-4 Upgrade at DefExpo 2014
BEL is upgrading Schilka lightly armored tanks equipped with the ZSU-23-4 gun system. Primarily developed to engage low flying aircraft, Schilka tanks were imported from Russia in 1984-85 and have been in use since.
Around 80-90 tanks still remain in service. The original technology that went into the weapon system has now hopelessly outdated. As a result, BEL has been tasked to completely refit the system to extend its service life.
BEL, in a tie up with an Ukrainian firm, won the contract to overhaul the tanks in a global tender, outbidding the original Russian manufacturers.
BEL is not just replacing the existing systems (Radar, analog computer, engine, GTE ) with more modern one, but adding new features to increase crew comfort and safety. This upgraded system has dramatically improved operational performance and accuracy and MTBF with much lower power consumption. An electro-optical system has been added, which operates in parallel with the radar enabling accurate identification, acquisition and tracking of targets while operating in an ECM environment.

Rafael's Spike missile family at DefExpo 2014
Rafael's Spike missile family at DefExpo 2014
Israel's Rafael has been trying to sell its Spike anti-tank missiles to India for quite a while now, but has been frustrated by bureaucratic indecisiveness, easily justified by empty coffers and some strong lobbying by the Americans pitching their Javelin ATGM as an alternative.
Spike MR at the bottom of the picture above is the man portable version of the anti-tank missile. The extended range Spike ER seen in the middle is being pitched for use by the Army's Dhruv WSI (Rudra) helicopters. Spike NLOS at the top is currently FIY only, since there is no Indian RFI for it.
"I am confident that when requirements for longer-range precision attack weapons are laid out, the SPIKE NLOS that we are also displaying here at DEFEXPO will come to the limelight," says Oron Oriol, RAFAEL’s VP Marketing & Business Development.
Spike NLOS has a range of 25-km and is equipped with a EO seeker that uses image comparison to seek out its target, the only missile of its type using such a seeker.
The use of image comparison in a stand off, non line of sight weapon eliminates the need to illuminate the target with a laser, or obtain geolocation with pinpoint accuracy. Typically the electro-optical 'sensor to shooter' cycle involves the use of a electro-optical reconnaissance pods like the RECCELITE system for manned aircraft, or the RECCEU system for unmanned aerial systems. Imagery can be also obtained from the widely used Litening pods.
