TATA-DRDO WhAP conducts successful Trials at Ladakh

In the last few weeks, the Indian Army has been operating on full throttle to deploy its most proficient equipment at Ladakh to prepare for any encounter against the Chinese People Liberation Army. Eight wheeled armoured personnel carrier for infantry troops that are designed and made in India are undergoing trials at Leh.

The vehicles will undergo high altitude winter trials and could be efficient at transporting the troops and aiding them to occupy strategic heights too. Moreover, the carriers will also undergo tests at Depsang to assess the engine and functioning systems of the artillery.

Here’s the first glimpse of the eight wheeled armoured personnel carrier for infantry troops at the Leh airfield. A successful examination of these newly stationed carriers could cause a tremendous advancement in India’s infantry combat vehicles operation. These are wheeled equipment that tend to be much quicker, swifter, amphibious, and can be airlifted in numbers at several vital points across the Line of Actual Control.

Developed jointly by India’s DRDO and private industrial giant TATA, the Kestrel is an 8 wheeled Amphibious Armoured Personnel Carrier, capable of attaining speeds of 100 km/hr on road and 10 km/hr in water. Being an amphibious vehicle, the Kestrel gives a significant advantage to the troops – not halting for bridges to be laid down by engineers when encountered with a small river or similar hydrological formations.

The new Armoured Personal Vehicle shall replace the BMP-1  and BMP-2/2Ks vehicles in Indian service, which too are amphibious. These vehicles could be posted at the Pangong Tso lake, Chumar and Daulat Beg Oldi to strengthen the armed forces. Furthermore, it is designed by the DRDO, stressing on the steps being taken by the government to become self-reliant in the defence sector.

5th Scorpene submarine, Vagir begins maiden sea trials

In a significant development, India’s fifth Scorpene submarine Vagir commenced its first sea sortie from Mumbai on February 1. It was expected to go for maiden surface sortie in December last year. The fifth submarine of Project 75, which began in November 2020 at Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders Limited, will be commissioned into the Indian Navy later this year.

The commencement of sea trials of the fifth submarine is a significant milestone. During her sea sortie, the submarine will undergo intense trials of all its systems at sea, including propulsion systems, weapons and sensors.

INS Vagir is under development stage. Scorpene class submarines are a key asset for the Navy as they can undertake anti-surface as well as anti-submarine warfare missions. These submarines are capable of launching different kinds of torpedoes and missile systems. They are also equipped with a range of surveillance and intelligence gathering mechanisms.

The fighter planes were handed over by France at Istres-Le Tube air base of Rafale manufacturer Dassault Aviation, and is situated north-west of Marseille. After this, the IAF will wait for the right opportunity to take the fighter jets to India between February 15 and 20.

According to people aware of the developments, the handed over planes will now be test-checked for all the details. The fighter jets are expected to arrive in India between February 15 and 16, the people cited above said. When they fly out of France, these fighter jets will receive mid-air refuelling by the air force of India’s close ally, the United Arab Emirates, using Airbus multi-role transport tankers.

These Rafale fighter jets are fully equipped with India specific enhancements, which will give them extra teeth to fight any regional adversary. The last fighter jet is nearly ready with fresh paint and enhancements, but will arrive in April due to the reasons best known to IAF.
