    I have friend who joined -HAL- GTRE-Kaveri engine project a while back and he was disgusted with the work that was being done. People are working for 20+ years in a project without anything to show. They do not have urgency or fire to showcase their work, maybe it is the govt office attitude or they have given up. Only way any development will happen in India is when private companies are incentivised for R&D and only niche work is done by DRDO.

We still do not have armed drones. Work is being done slower than some govt offices. Also, repurposing engine developed for fighter plane for drones because it was a FAILED project is not a good way of development.

    • @AK-wn5ri
      @AK-wn5ri Před 10 měsíci +7

      @@apoorvchauhan6258 I guess I will have to challenge all your points one by one:
      1) TD for Ghatak UCAV have already taken its first flight
      -- GHATAK scaled down model flight has taken place an year ago. It will take 2+ years to create 1:1 and production will take 5 years. This is as per the conservative estimation of DRDO itself.
      2) India recently demonstrated over the horizon capability for MALE drone (controlled by SATCOM). Ops included switching control from Land Based CS to Naval Vessel.
      - Yes that is what I mentioned in my comment. Data link verification is the basic feature of drones along with flight capability. MALE drone is delayed project and will take few more years for all features to be tested. Turkey has a viable drone project with less money and time because their scientists are motivated and project management is to the point.
      3) We have indigenous Loitering Munition and Swarm Drones (demonstrated back in 2021)
      - Indigenous Loitering Munition is not a big project. A kid can attach hobby drone with explosives and drop it. Ukraine is doing it with cheap Chinese drones. Swarm drone is a great project and it is working at great pace. Both these projects are done by private companies though NOT DRDO. So get your facts right.
      4) Kaveri is not repurposed🤡 rather downscaled with similar dry/wet thrust performance to fit our UCAV requirements.
      - KAVERI engine is a FAILED project. Even DRDO accepts it. Thrust output is way below the target. It was decided to use Kaveri engine for jet propulsion drones only recently. So it is at conception stage. Remember the scaled down GHATAK drone is not using Kaveri engine.
      5)it's not jugaad rather versatility of our Engine.
      - Boasting about a failed project as if it was the objective is sublimely MORONIC. Accept that it was failed project, learn from mistakes and move on to the next project. Wasting 20+ years on a single project is nothing but idiotic. Only govt org can afford such morons.
      6)I guess i hit the nerve by calling your friend Peon whose sole purpose of existence is syphoning kickbacks while DRDO scientists have developed ICBMs, AAMs, LCA, MBT, SAMs and what not.
      - Yes you did. You degraded the job of peons by mocking it. Your classist, elitist, racist attitude dripped in your comment. It showed me that you are north-Indian typical son who was coddled every day in his life and hardly worked for anything. Everything was given to you by your parents.
      Regarding my friend, he is working for a reputable company in US making them cutting edge tech with his 2 Masters degree!

I can't fast forward and show you that isn't correct. He has strong views about military equipment. I am no expert. So I take his criticism of Indian equipment investment and DRDO/HAL inadequancies. I can see a Brahmos or Pinaka or even a Tejas that we made and are now exporting. I am hearing him for over 3 yrs. I think he has an Agenda behind this criticism. Particularly disappointted by India not giving US enuf Orders as per commitments. He is frustrated by it. Not a good sign. Keeps deriding Russian equipment and Fighters.
      US for all its might, hasn't won a single war for a long time anywhere. Now they are losing Ukraine as well. Why?? They lost in Syria as well. N mind you NATO is man countries together. Why can't they defeat Russia, Iran and China together?
      What AIM says and what I see happen doesn't match at all.
      He never says we should develop our own weapons. Instead, he always talks down our institutions. Let me tell you one fact. You tell me if you were aware of this.
      NASA is a premier US institute right? The best you might say. Are you aware that for over 15 years, NASA doesn't send its Astraunauts to Space Centre on its Rockets? It sends them on Russian Rockets. Why? Richest country in the world outsourcing this key capability?

      @@shashankkavur I agree, yes it can pose significant problems. But, you need to understand, when we diversify our source there are inherent advantages to it as well. For example, if we buy from a single source and the suppliers decide to not supply with spares or equipment anymore then we are basically screwed. But when we diversify, we still have other sources. Also yes we are working with Tejas and AMCA but it will take time to join the service. In the meantime, we will have to rely on foreign weapons. Logistical issues can be remedied to a certain extent by indigenizing certain parts or equipment like HAL and DRDO are doing in the case of Su30mki or even T90 tanks.

    I get depression every time I hear about types of Indian Aircraft Fleet,
    It's not actually 6 types but far more,
    Airforce:-
    • Mig-21
    • Su-30mki
    • HAL Tejas (MK1 & MK1A)
    • Mirage 2000
    • Jaguar
    • Mig-29
    • Rafale
    × Upcoming Airforce Aircrafts
    • Tejas MK2
    • AMCA
    • ORCA (Maybe)
    Navy:-
    • Mig-29
    × Upcoming Naval Aircrafts
    • TEDBF
    • Naval Tejas (Maybe)
    • Naval AMCA (Maybe)
    It's actually 7 different types of aircrafts currently in operations, which might go upto 13 different types of Aircraft,
    That's literally suicidal...🤯🤯🤯

    • @imperialenforcer2271
      @imperialenforcer2271 Před 10 měsíci +11

      What's more depressing is that we haven't done anything tangible about ORCA, AMCA, TEDBF.
      Airforce is in a hurry to retire MiG-21s and reduce the squadron strength even more. Heck they even retired the MiG-27s and MiG-23s when they could've been upgraded and maintained the squadron strength until suitable replacements came.
      Something is better than nothing. An old plane is still better than having no plane.

Man I genuinely hope that we don't have a war real soon otherwise we're gonna have a logistical nightmare. This kind of thing was prevalent in every country back during the World War era and we haven't learned anything from it. And let's not forget that we import a lot of our ammunition because our domestic factories and reserves are completely off the mark.

    I don’t understand geopolitics. But I listen to Abhijeet Mitra as his voice has sound of honesty.

    When two Abhijit's put their mind together the end result is encyclopedia of facts which we would not be able to find without both of them. I am going to listen several times and take notes to share with my fellow forum friends.
