DRDO’s next: Star Wars-like weapons

[Secur]

My intent was to show that Laser research is being done in India and your was to troll here

Asking people to share updates on the Laser program isn't trolling

 

[Kinetic]

Even i can give you a list like that But is that the topic ?

Give a list anything close to them.

No just to discuss this very far fetched plan

No you are doing it just to make fun. your comments are proof.

If there were a thing like that and it was even close to being operational , it would have propagated far and wide in the media ... Its not an ordinary achievement to utilize lasers for defense even USA with all its tech might and power is struggling to deploy them lol

Why are you talking of some arbitrary things? Where did you got that media propagation thing? Imagination with many if. Many Indian systems revealed only few weeks before the tests.

Kindly refrain from posting scientific papers as it serves to prove nothing

Why?

 

[IndianArmy]

Spoil my intent ? Did you even read or understand the paper ? lol It says nothing about the very futuristic program that your country plans to deploy ... Anybody can write some scientific paper on laser ... Whats so special about this one ?

My not so friendly friend. Let me introduce you to the Laser technologies which we have been talking about here, we might not have weaponized it but we certainly use these lasers to design the electrostatic shields in strengthening various Products of ours including the much criticized LCA to withstand EMI attacks. I do not understand why is it made an issue here , is it so un believable that India has grown past you over generations?

I do not intend to spoil the blame party as being a human being one is a good lawyer for oneself and a better judge for others.

Please stick to the context of the topic..
avoid critique for the sake of critique since you are dealing with extremely fragile ego's that cannot resist taking cheapshots at the prodding of a junior member.

Even the Chinese who keep everything under tight wraps aren't successful in controlling the release of pics and vids of military hardware which are posted on their Defense forums ( Hint J20 ) ... What makes you think that it would be possible for India ? Almost 1.5 years have passed , if such a thing even existed , we would have been looking at some leaked pics and updates here ... Since its not the case , I am obliged to think otherwise

Why?

Because we aren't here to learn the basics of laser tech

You made me somewhat emotional

 

[brational]

Technology and expertise makes a country superior as compared to terrorism and defence allys. Laser tech as claimed by India has a days to mature but it will definitely reap the benefits of quick starter. We are more interested to use this tech to handle matters peacefully, at the sametime this will keep our so called wellwishers likw P&C at the bay. Hope India makes a breakthrough tech in this front.. Best Luck to DRDO guys and BARC.

Correction not WE-- it is U.. And we all know why U r here troll.

I used to think guys like you to be unbiased but some of your posts have shown me how great capability you are having to raise the standards for all the trolls out here anyways nice work.

Kali & Durga - Indian Space Lasers.

MUMBAI: The Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC) here is in the final
stages of assembling a powerful electron accelerating machine named
``Kali-5000'' which, its scientists say, can potentially be used as a
beam weapon.

Bursts of microwaves packed with gigawatts of power (one gigawatt is
1,000 million watts) produced by this machine, when aimed at enemy
missiles and aircraft will cripple their electronics systems and
computer chips and bring them down.

According to scientists, ``soft killing'' by high power microwaves has
advantages over the so-called laser weapon which destroys by drilling
holes through metal.

Kali-5000 will be ready for testing by the end of this year, according
to P H Ron, head of the accelerator and pulse power division at BARC and
chief designer of India's first star war weapon.

However, in the present form, India's beam weapon is too bulky - it
weighs 26 tonnes - including tanks containing 12,000 litres of oil. Mr
Ron said some ``compacting'' was possible.

He said the Kali (Kilo-ampere linear injector) machine was developed for
industrial applications and that the defence use was a recent spin off.
He, however, declined to elaborate.

Describing it as a machine ``bordering basic research'', Atomic Energy
Commission chairman Rajagopalan Chidambaram admitted in an interview
that it has military potential. ``There are some technologies we have to
be in touch with because they may become useful (later),'' he said.

The development of the Kali machine was mooted in 1985 by Mr
Chidambaram, then director of BARC, but work earnestly began in 1989.

Mr Ron said the machine essentially generated pulses of highly energetic
electrons. Other components in the machine down the line converted the
electrons into flash X-rays (for ultra high-speed photography) or
microwaves. The electron beam itself can be used for welding.

The Defence Ballistics Research Institute in Chandigarh is already using
an X-ray version of the Kali to study speed of projectiles.

Another defence institute in Bangalore is using a microwave- producing
version of the Kali, which the scientists use for testing the
vulnerability of the electronic systems going into the light combat
aircraft under development and designing electrostatic shields to
protect them from microwave attack by the enemy.

According to BARC scientists, the Kali machine has for the first time
provided India a way to ``harden'' the electronic systems used in
satellites and missiles against the deadly electromagnetic impulses
(EMI) generated by nuclear weapons.

The EMI wrecks havoc by creating intense electric field of several
thousand volts per centimetre. The electronic components currently used
in missiles can withstand fields of just 300 volts per centimetre.

While the Kali systems built so far are single shot pulse power systems
(they produce one burst of microwaves and the next burst comes much
later), the Kali-5000 is a rapid fire device, and hence its potential as
a beam weapon.

According to reports published by BARC, the machine will shoot several
thousand bursts of microwaves, each burst lasting for just 60 billionths
of a second and packed with a power of about four gigawatts.

The high-power microwave pulses travel in a straight line and do not
dissipate their energy if the frequency falls between three and 10
gigahertz.

According to BARC scientists, a microwave power of 150 megawatts has
already been demonstrated in earlier versions of Kali.(PTI)

so next time threat will be come to the space and i will see you lolz

so next time threat will be come to the space and i will see you lolz

Thats the thing about which I am really scared as theres not even a single place left on Earth to hide.
