AMCA Fighter Jets may get EOTS like Sensor System India is developing
Instruments Research & Development Establishment, a DRDO lab that specializes in the development of Vision and Electro optical fire control systems has issued tenders for fabrication and installation of the InfraRed Sensor for airborne applications. Instruments Research & Development Establishment seems to be testing India’s own Electro Optical Targeting System (EOTS) that combines forward looking infrared and infrared search and track functionality for the precision air to air and air to surface targeting capability.
Aeronautical Development Agency had confirmed that it is
working on a sensor package that they won’t call is similar to the (EOTS) that
was seen for the first time on the F-35 program but something on the similar
lines for AMCA Fighter Jets. It has one forward looking infrared sensor and one rear looking infrared
sensor positioned in such a way that it can provide high resolution imagery of
the terrain and can also offer spot tracking at greatly increased standoff
ranges for AMCA.

Indian Navy successfully test fires BrahMos cruise missile
from INS Chennai
The Indian Navy successfully demonstrated the accuracy of an
extended range land attack Brahmos supersonic cruise missile from the stealth
destroyer INS Chennai on Saturday, said the Indian Navy officials. The missile
hit its intended target with pinpoint accuracy after traversing an extended
range trajectory and performing complex manoeuvres.
Both Brahmos missile and INS Chennai are indigenously built
and highlight the cutting edge of Indian missile and ship building prowess.
They reinforce the Indian Navy’s contribution towards the Atma Nirbhar Bharat
and Make in India endeavours. This achievement established the Indian Navy’s
ability to strike even deeper and influence land operations further away from
the sea when and where required.
New Cruise Missile Confirmed For Chinas J-10C Fighter: An
Anti-Ship Weapon to Boost Export Prospects?
The J-10C is one of three fighter classes in production today
for the Chinese People’s Liberation Army Air Force. Entering service from 2018,
over 150 J-10C fighters are currently thought to be in service with the
airframes being produced at a faster rate than any other Chinese design. As a
light weight single engine design, the fighter’s operational costs are
considerably lower than those of other fighters in the country.
On March 3 it was confirmed that the J-10C had integrated the
YJ-83K anti ship cruise missile, when an image of a fighter carrying one of the
missiles was released. The J-10C was previously prized for its access to PL-15
AESA radar guided air to air missiles, widely considered the most capable in
the world, with estimated ranges of 200 to 300 kilometers, as well as YJ-91
cruise missiles for anti shipping and anti radiation missions.
The YJ-83K complements these capabilities by providing a
longer range anti shipping capability, albeit subsonically, with the latest
variants benefitting from ranges exceeding 200 kilometer and capable of
receiving mid-course corrections by remote link.
India’s 1st Indigenous Flying Trainer HANSA-NG Completes Sea Level
Trials
India’s first indigenous flying trainer ‘HANSA-NG’ designed
and developed by CSIR National Aerospace Laboratories, has successfully
completed the sea level trials at Puducherry from February 19 to March 5. The
aircraft was flown to Puducherry covering a distance of 140 nautical miles in
1.5 hours at a cruising speed of 155 kilometer per hour on February 19.
The objective of these trials were to evaluate handling
qualities, climb, cruise performance, balked landing, structural performance
including positive and negative G, power plant and other systems performance at
sea level. All the objectives of the sea level trials were met and the aircraft
was ferried back to Bengaluru on March 5, after completing 18 hours flying in
Puducherry. It is designed to meet the Indian flying club needs and it is an
ideal aircraft for Commercial Pilot Licensing due to its low cost and low fuel
consumption.
Coast Guard’s Dornier-228 suffers hard landing after engine
failure
An undated video is going viral in the Twitter space of an
Indian Coast Guard Dornier-228 coming in for landing at the Hall’s facility in
Chakeri in Kanpur after suffering a left engine failure. Aircraft is believed
to be coming in from Chennai to Hall’s Kanpur facility where Dornier-228 is
manufactured and where it also has a Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul facility
for the aircraft type.
In the video, it can be seen that the pilot after landing the
aircraft on the landing strip tried hard to keep the aircraft straight but due
to pulling force coming from its right engine, he veered into the soft ground
before hitting a structure. While the Indian Coast Guard is yet to officially
comment on the incident it seems the aircraft is safe due to quick thinking of
the pilot and might have suffered minor damages to its front section.
