Tarmak007 -- A bold blog on Indian defence: Breaking on Tarmak007: Tejas 'bombs' Chitradurga test range

Tejas today dropped the first bomb at Challakere DRDO Test Range in Chitradurga. A Tejas PV-2 piloted by Gp Capt (Retd) R.R. Tyagi dropped practice bombs on the target. ADA had fixed air-to-ground target and Range Safety Officer (RSO) bunkers at the range site for the stores release. A mobile telemetry from NFTC was also positioned at the test range.

Does PV-2 has been updated with radars?? or this is just a dumb bombs??

What a perfect hit! Cool! Its looks like Tejas is fully ready for IOC. :victory:

^ right buddy:)


Bang on target with pin point accuracy:sniper:

How a dumb bomb can hit Bulls eye???? And what make you to think that Bomb and missiles are guided only by Radar???? It can be LGB or IRGB..

Does any one know which kind of guidance needed for this testing????

Impact of the blast says it all. These are training bombs and are usually 3 KG and 25 pound bombs. That is why the small impact.

Does Tejas have the capability to fire BVRAAM's?If not,when will it be integrated?

You are rite. The accuracy shows that it was a guided one. But we have to wait to see which type of bombs/guidance were used.

SRAAM (heat Seeking) is already tested, BVRAAM has not yet tested. I was looking at BVRAAM definition...

Astra BVRAAM:
100+ Km on head on encounter,
20+ km on tail chasing...

So mind it be4 talking on range on BVRAAM

Ok,I'll be more specific.Can Tejas fire the Vympel R-77(AA-12 Adder)?

Till date It has not been tested or There is no information of its test .. But Its in plan to integrate it on LCA....


Wiki says "EL/M-2032 is an advanced pulse Doppler, multimode fire control radar intended for multi-mission fighter aircraft. It is suitable for air-to-air and air-to-surface modes. In the air-to-air mode the radar delivers long-range target detection and tracking capability. In the air-to-surface mode, the radar generates high resolution ground imagery using Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) technology for smart weapons guidance. Air-to-Sea mode provides long-range detection and tracking as well as target identification capability.:

and

EL/M-2032 air-to-air mode has a detection and tracking range of up to 150 km,

Looking at Radar specs I can assume that R77 will be definitely tested soon on LCA...

Can any one add something more on this issue...???

BVR missiles were not integrated so far, it might depend on the delays of MMR too. It is still unclear if LCA has MMR, or Elta 2032 installed, however R77 is the logic choice till Astra will be ready and by the fact that IAF will replace R77 with Astra from Russian fighters in future too. Some sources talked about Python WVR and Derby BVR missiles for LCA too, but possibly for N-LCAs because IN use them on Sea Harriers too.
