French Defence Minister Offers Rafale-M Jets For India’s 2nd Aircraft Carrier

France is ready to provide additional Rafale fighter jets to India if it requires, French Defence Minister Florence Parley said on Friday while noting that the use of the same aircraft by the two strategic partners is a reflection of real asset and strength in their ties.

The French embassy on Thursday said a total of 33 Rafale jets have already been delivered to India as per schedule despite the pandemic. The French minister also referred to India’s planned induction of a second aircraft carrier and indicated that France will be interested to supply the carrier-based jets. We know that the aircraft carrier will soon be there & that carrier-based aircrafts are needed. We are open and ready to provide any other Rafale if this is India’s decision.

India’s first home made aircraft carrier Vikrant is scheduled to be inducted into the Indian Navy by August next year. In her comments, French Defence Minister said France and India are both “viscerally committed” to national sovereignty and independence. France, more than any other country, understands the necessity of the Indian content. And we are fully committed to the ‘Make in India’ initiative.

After Indian Multirole Helicopter HAL has plans for Chinook Class transport helicopter

HAL has started work on the design and development of the Indian Multi Role Helicopter (IMRH), a 13 tons medium lift helicopter that will eventually replace the Mi-17 fleet from the Indian Armed forces starting from 2032 onwards.

HAL’s Chairman and Managing Director R. Madhavan confirmed that the company is also looking to work on 20 to 24 tons helicopter that will put it in the league of heavy lift transport helicopter class.

HAL will discuss with armed forces before the configuration of the new helicopter class is confirmed but these new helicopters will be placed above IMRH but in the same class of Boeing CH-47 Chinook but below Mi-26 fleet of Heavy helicopters in the hierarchy.

After IMRH, the next class of helicopters will feature a next generation coaxial rotor system and push propeller for fast acceleration and deceleration, better speed, and combat radius.

Guided rockets: PSU made to work with private sector to get DRDO systems

The new defence PSUs formed out of the Ordnance Factory Board are now depending on the private sector to complete the latest guided Pinaka rocket systems they are working on. The guided rocket has a range of over 70km and is precise on the target due to the guidance kit. It is being jointly made by Yantra India Limited and Munitions India Limited. Based at Nagpur, Yantra is providing the hardware while filling is to be done by Munitions India Limited, which has its headquarters in Pune.

Nagpur’s Economic Explosives Limited is also working on the guided rocket project and is at an advanced stage. Without the technology for the guidance kits, on which the performance of the rockets hinges, the PSUs had approached the two companies to complete the project.

The PSUs are learnt to be now close to a deal with Bharat Forge. Bharat Forge confirmed that the company will be supplying the kit. After that, it would be a joint endeavour.
