Indian Army Exoskeleton, Indian Nag Atgm vs Chinese Red Arrow, TRG 300 Bangladesh

DRDO working on exoskeleton for Soldiers to operate at high altitudes

Despite many years of R&D on the exoskeleton, DRDO has yet to field any operational technology in the field of exoskeleton.

With China-India border issue likely to be guarded more intensely by both the sides, any support to make the lives of the soldiers safer and conducive shall go a long way in their motivation and operational efficiency.

The exoskeletons are rapidly emerging as part of the modern troops body gadget and Armed Forces may be keenly looking forward to the culmination of this project, far sooner than many others still within the Defence Research and Development Organisation Lab environment.

This has helped the PLA border defense troops in Southwest China’s Region to carry out tasks in high altitude inhuman environments.

Exoskeleton systems are being designed and developed for specific military logistic applications involving bending, lifting of payload, walking with payload anterior to the body, and unloading the same.

Various concepts and configurations are being designed and developed currently. DRDO has been progressing on the different design approaches to build an augmentative exoskeleton for the Indian Army.

How Do India’s Nag & Spike ATGMs Compete Against China’s Red Arrow Anti-Tank Missiles?

The Indian Army acquired its homegrown ‘Nag’ and the Israeli Spike anti-tank guided missiles (ATGM) amid the border standoff with China last year.

The Chinese PLA boasts its Red Arrow 10 (HJ-10) that can shoot down helicopters, drones, and damage tanks and howitzers.

The PLA first approved the Red Arrow-10 multi-purpose missile system, also known as the AFT-10, in 2012.

The ATGM is intended to effectively engage modern armored vehicles, which may be equipped with dynamic protection features. The system can also shoot down combat helicopters, unmanned aerial vehicles, and damage self propelled artillery.

The Hong Jian-10 or the Red Arrow-10 has a solid propellant launch and marching engines.

Weighing 43 kgs, the Red Arrow has a length of 1850mm and its hull diameter is 165mm. The maximum flight range of the missile is 10km. With a speed of 150m/s, the missile can reach 230 m/s on its final dive.

The ATGM is guided by a combined system of television/thermal imaging (IIR) homing head, an inertia system, and a two-way fiber optic data transmission channel.

A data transmission channel generates the target image by the homing head to the operator’s console. The same channel relays the control commands to the missile.

This enables it to put the missile on a variety of uses, like use in combat, including fire-and-forget technology, command guidance, and composite paths, target acquisition and redirection after launch, shooting indistinguishable targets from a closed position.

The nearest equivalent of the Red Arrow-10 is the Israeli Spike ER. Developed by Israel’s Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, the Spike-ER is an anti-tank missile system capable of engaging dynamic armoured vehicles.

The Indian military has reportedly acquired more than 200 Spike ATGMs through the emergency procurement route. These can be fired from vehicles, helicopters, ships, and ground launchers.

These advanced missiles have optical seekers, smart target trackers, and various artificial intelligence features.

TRG-300 TIGER Missile Delivery from ROKETSAN to Bangladesh

Bangladesh army has taken delivery of TRG-300 Tiger MLRS Multiple Launch Rocket Systems produced by the Turkish company Roketsan.

In March 2021, it was announced by the Bangladesh Chief of General Staff that the TRG-300 KAPLAN Missile System developed by ROKETSAN will be delivered to the Bangladesh army in June 2021.

The TRG-300 is a mobile 300mm MLRS (Multiple Launch Rocket System) based on a 6x6 military truck chassis. The launcher unit is mounted at the rear of the truck chassis and has four launcher tubes.

The Rocket Launcher is equipped with guidance system includes a Global Positioning System and Global Navigation Satellite System Aided Inertial Navigation System with an accuracy of around 10 metre.

With the delivery, the firepower of the Bangladesh Army's Artillery Regiment is further enhanced with the TRG-120 KAPLAN Missile System with a range of 300 kilometers. ROKETSAN met the tactical firepower requirements of the Bangladesh army with the missile system it exported.
