All weather solar tents to be deployed at over 17,000 feet on India China border

With border tension between India and China intensifying, the Union government has approved all weather, high altitude solar power tents that can be deployed at an altitude of above 17,000 feet and can function between minus 35 degree to 40 degree plus temperature.

ITBP has been using solar technology at some of the bases but solar powered tents will help them sustain sub-zero temperatures at very high altitudes. There are nearly 180 border posts along the India China border, from Karakoram Pass in Ladakh to Jachep La in Arunachal Pradesh.

An additional 47 border outposts and 12 staging camps are under construction to provide ration, logistics and a place to stay for ITBP personnel during the long-range patrols along the Himalayan frontier. The setting up of more posts is aimed at ensuring that they are not abandoned during extreme snow and cold.

Using solar technology, the temperature inside these tents will be maintained at 21 degrees Celsius. It shall be able to withstand wind speed of more than 150 kilometers. The high-altitude solar tents, approved by experts, require that their colours should be such that it can camouflage with the surroundings and the material used in the construction of these tents are fireproof.

Sukhoi-57 Fighter Outperforms US F-35 Stealth Aircraft In Three Critical Areas – Russian Military Expert

Russia’s Sukhoi 57 fifth generation fighter aircraft outperforms its US rivals in weapon systems, robotics, radars, and electronic warfare equipment.

The Sukhoi-57 outshines them by now in terms of the amount and diversity of armament. On top of that, the latest solutions, such as the second pilot as a system that facilitates aircraft control and combat operations, a spherical all-around radar that ‘sees’ everything and cutting-edge electronic warfare systems aboard the Sukhoi 57 leave the US rival far behind.

For a long time, it had been believed that only F-22 and F-35 planes can be referred to as fifth generation but these aircraft lack low radar signature and therefore can be shot down.

Russia has plans to start the production of the upgraded version of the Sukhoi-57 in 2025.

In the upgraded version of the fighter, a completely upgraded cockpit with the most advanced avionics will be installed.

In addition, the aircraft will be equipped with a second stage power unit. Plans are also there to design the Sukhoi 57 with a two-seat modification in order to allow the second pilot to control a swarm of heavy Okhotnik combat drones.
