🇮🇳India's Agni-Prime Missile — a weapon to be admired 🚀The Agni-P was developed through backward integration of all DRDO advances over the decades, spanning – rocket motors, flight control and navigation systems, warhead technology and terminal manoeuvring. "It's capabilities are truly astounding and should make every Indian proud," IAF veteran, Vijainder K Thakur said. Technical excellence of the Agni-P: ◾️ Can pulverise a target between 1,000 and 2,000km away; ◾️ Circular Error Probability (CEP) - less than 10m; ◾️ Much lighter than its Agni series predecessors; 🎯 The accuracy of the missile and its terminal phase manoeuvring capability could also allow the projectile to target a moving ship if fitted with an active radar seeker.

Leveraging MOSA Strategies for Uncrewed Systems: Join me, Hans Weggeman and John Breitenbach for Session 1 of the Uncrewed Systems Virtual Conference next week on Tuesday, April 2. Register here: https://lnkd.in/esY_txCS #MOSA #avionics #Sensors #unmanned Military Embedded Systems

https://lnkd.in/gSmr_Bai A good eye-opening development is seen here. Future can and will accommodate only such large bodies in space and on water to launch missiles on any given target. Keeping aircrafts on land and also maintaining huge aircraft carriers would be viewed as very expensive and less and less productive. Ask AI to look for the best cost effective floating missile launchers, meaning the overall size, the best max speed, the max carrying capacity. You have several sensitive variables here, you need to find out a marriage that's seriously productive at all varying conditions. A tall order, but need to obtain a workable solution at any cost. So goodbye to you, aircrafts and your carriers, we no longer can maintain you.

UAVs have rewritten the rules for military, intelligence, and other roles many times. They’re doing new things daily in all corners of the globe. But no amount of technical innovation can wave away the laws of physics. Learn why aircraft size matters: https://ow.ly/ye0G50QzPVJ

New experimental aircraft to test new innovative technologies: The Kommando Luftwaffe, Airbus Defence and Space, MBDA Deutschland, Diehl Aerospace (Diehl Aviation) and German FCMS GbR (Diehl Defence, ESG Elektroniksystem- und Logistik-GmbH, HENSOLDT and Rohde & Schwarz) have signed a memorandum of understanding at the ILA in Berlin. The partners wish to collaborate in integrating technology modules and demonstrate them on what is known as a “STAR demonstrator.” This should ensure that these technologies are ready for use quickly. STAR stands for “System and Teaming Advanced Research” and is based on an existing 2-seat Eurofighter of the air force. The STAR Eurofighter is to have a modified rear cockpit and a modular avionics and communication pod. With this equipment and additional flying platforms, the interplay of piloted and unpiloted elements should be demonstrated, finished, and operational by the end of the 2020s. Moreover, the STAR experimental aircraft should also support other national research projects (more on that here: https://lnkd.in/ev6N_xRY), especially in the areas of human-machine interfaces, integrated modular avionics, future training concepts, and the interoperability of existing fighter planes such as the Eurofighter and the F-35. And sensor technology, networked weapons, and electronic warfare will form central objects of the study. The partners’ objective is to demonstrate and integrate all these technologies quickly and pragmatically so they can also be used in the future for developments in the European Future Combat Air System (FCAS). The FCAS should be ready for use beginning in 2040 and will consist of a system of systems. The focus is on a new generation fighter (#NGF) and drones (Remote Carrier) that are networked with other systems on the ground, in the sea, in the air, in space, and in cyberspace via a data cloud (Multi-Domain Combat Cloud #MDCC).

Hot new webinar: Radio disruption solutions for #counterUAS radio signals in military scenarios Learn more about counter UAS technology and the role of active countermeasures to disrupt UAS communications links in future military scenarios and why #ARDRONIS, the Rohde & Schwarz counter UAS solution, is the best choice for direction finding and countering small uncrewed aerial systems in a military scenario. June 26 at 5pm CEST and June 27 at 9am CEST Join the next Rohde & Schwarz webinar and gain further insights into #directionfinding and countering UASs in various military scenarios: http://ms.spr.ly/6042Yo1rn #antidrone #counterdrone #cuas

A Highly Accurate #FOG #IMU More detail：https://lnkd.in/gRPV-wRX ER-FIMU-70 FOG #inertial #measurement #unit is specially developed for tactical system applications. The product consists of all solid-state three-axis #fiber #optic #gyroscope, three-axis quartz flexible accelerometers, body structure, data interface board and other components. It can measure the triaxial acceleration and angular velocity of the object, and is generally used in the measurement link of the system to estimate the posture of the object. The #accelerometer detects the independent three-axis acceleration signal of the object in the carrier coordinate system, the gyro detects the angular velocity signal of the carrier relative to the navigation coordinate system, and the attitude of the object can be calculated according to the measured angular velocity and acceleration of the object in three-dimensional space. Applications Inertial navigation of surface-to-air missiles Air-to-air missiles and navigation missiles Space stabilization systems, mapping systems, attitude reference systems, motion compensation systems, imaging stabilization systems, flight control systems Air combat maneuvering instruments Navigation test equipment

https://lnkd.in/eJegqJXb Vibro-Acoustic/Temperature MIL-STD-810 Method 523.4 testing is performed to evaluate the effects of acoustic noise, vibration, and temperature on aircraft externally carried stores during flight. Aircraft stores refer to devices that are mounted on aircraft suspension and release equipment such as missiles, rockets, or bombs.

Here’s a recap of the other relevant news for military aviation: 🔥 Japan, Britain and Italy are progressing the work on the future Global Combat Air Program (#GCAP), participated by BAE Systems, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Leonardo (among others). The partners are close to completing the aircraft’s conceptual design phase, which will allow to move to the next stage of the program next year — the design and development phase. The stage should last 5 years and lead to a maiden flight around 2030, while export and deployment should be ready by 2035. 🔥 According to OCCAR, the first activities to certify the engine of the RPAS #Eurodrone have started. The Catalyst engine was developed in the last decade across Europe and will be provided by Avio Aero, which should deliver 120 engines for 60 aircraft. The manufacturing of the aircraft will be carried out by Leonardo and Dassault Aviation. 🔥 In the next few weeks, JetZero will begin flight tests of a subscale version of its full-scale blended wing body (BWB) multirole commercial and military demonstrator. The company was funded under a 2021 contract by NASA and by U.S. Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) in 2023. Flight tests of the full-scale demonstrator are expected for 2027, powered by Pratt & Whitney PW1100G engines. 🔥 The US Army has cancelled its next generation Future Attack Reconnaissance Aircraft (#FARA) program. The decision comes two decades to the month after the Army ended its plans to procure the RAH-66 Comanche and nearly 16 years after it terminated work on the ARH-70A Arapaho, both aircraft designed to replace the Kiowa, the same helicopter FARA was meant to replace. Considering the changing scenarios (Ukraine), the saved money should to invested in unmanned systems. #military #militaryaviation
