I think it's a dust and sand free air intake for army operation in sandy regions like Rajasthan and Gujarat Kutch area

French Missile, Russian Launcher, Desi Jugaad - The FLAME launcher.

The Bharat Dynamics Limited FLAME launcher (Fagot launcher adapted to Milan equipment) is a missile launcher based on the 9P135M launcher of the 9K111 and 9K113 ATGM systems.

The launch post has been adapted so that the MILAN 2T missiles which are license produced by BDL can also be utilised from the launcher, this was done as a cost-saving measure as the MILAN launch post was exorbitantly expensive compared to the 9P135 missile launch posts which had been kept in storage after the phasing out of the 9M111 missiles with the Indian Army.

The FLAME launcher is now the standard issue man-portable missile launch post for the MILAN 2T missiles in the India Army Infantry and Mechanised Infantry Battalions, the older MILAN launchers have apparently been kept in storage because of their age as they are no longer sighted in exercises.

The launcher weighs 26kgs and has 10x magnification, as of now no thermal imaging sight has been seen on the IA FLAME launchers. BDL has upgraded the FLAME to the FLAME Mk.2 variant, this variant is capable of the firing the DRDO CLGM along with the MILAN 2T, 9M113M and 9M111 missiles.

Note: 9K111 ATGM system was designated as Fagot by NATO

• Nirbhay, powered by a 500-kgf thrust Saturn engine, would hopefully be replaced by the 425-kgf Manik engine being developed by GTRE.

• HAL is also developing a 400-kgf thrust Small Gas Turbine for Strategic Application,, based on the PTAE-7 which powers the Lakshya PTA.

• RCI is developing a 275 kgf thrust Small Gas Turbine Jet Engine (SGTJE) to power a UCAV capable of cruising at 0.8M at SL with asistance from NAL's Propulsion Division for design and analysis, engine cycle analysis and configuration of the turbojet engine.

1) how this downgraded engine affects nirbhay's payload capacity and range?
2)Do we have any plan for upgrading lashya?

3) which ucav will be powered by this engine? aura.

No idea, can't say until its in production.

2)Do we have any plan for upgrading lashya?

There is lakshya 2 and Abhyas.

3) which ucav will be powered by this engine? aura.

Probably a new smaller sub sonic cruise missile.
Aura is powered by a version of kavari without afterburner named ghatak.

This month. It's been going through ground tests, data from those resulted in modifications to the prototype.

Interesting look at OFB's new 130mm to 155mm upgrade. It differ from its previous design. It takes the bofors muzzle brake.

Honestly, the barrel probably cames straight from Dhanush 45.
