Russia Successfully Tests S-500 Anti-Missile Defence Systems Prototypes In The Arctic; Headed To India?

Russia has recently performed routine testing of S-500 anti-missile defence systems in the Arctic area, a source told Sputnik on December 29. The source further revealed that prototypes of the S-550 are still to be created. The long-range missile of the system was launched against a hypersonic target, which was effectively destroyed. Further tests of the S-500 will be held, citing the source, Sputnik reported.

Furthermore, during the month of September, Russia's Deputy Prime Minister Yuri Borisov stated that the new S-500 anti-aircraft missile system had passed official testing and that the first batches had been given to the country's armed services. Following that in November, Dmitry Shugaev, the head of Russia's Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation (FSMTC), indicated that India, as well as China, may receive Russia's modernistic S-500 anti-aircraft missile systems in the future.

5 Years Of Submarine Secrecy: India's Unique Arihant Class Is Still In Hiding

Although photographs of the Arihant Class are very rare, analysis of satellite imagery and the few photos that are available give some indications of the internal arrangement. 5 years after she was commissioned in 2016, the Indian Navy’s INS Arihant remains something of an enigma. Her existence is no secret, in fact it is a proud achievement of Indian industry. But photographs are very few. And nearly all those you will find on the internet are many years old. It is a very secretive submarine program

Few submarines are less photographed than India’s two Arihant Class ballistic missile submarines (SSBNs). The lead boat, INS Arihant (S2), was commissioned in 2016 and a second boat, INS Arighat (S3) is expected to join her in service this year.

The Arihant is a unique design which can be characterized as a ‘pocket boomer’. It is much smaller than other ballistic missile submarines (North Koreas’ conventionally powered boats excepted). Its hull is shorter and thinner than its contemporaries and it only carries four missile silos.

But this does not take away from the industrial achievement of an indigenous nuclear-powered submarine. And in many respects its modest size seems pragmatic. Other countries now taking the nuclear submarine path, such as Brazil, are also going for smaller types.

Navy commits to procure 60 Naval Indian Multi Role Helicopter (IMRH)

Admiral R Hari Kumar, Chief of the Naval Staff, Indian Navy said that the initial proposal of Hindustan Aeronautics Limited was for 3 separate variants of IMRH, that can be used for Special Operations, Anti Surface Warfare + Anti Submarine Warfare but the Navy has rejected this proposal.

Navy has asked HAL for the development of a common multirole helicopter with both Anti Surface Warfare & Anti Submarine Warfare capability that can also be used for Special Operations / Search & Rescue, Utility / Vertical Replenishment and airborne mine countermeasures.

HAL plans to develop Army and Air Force Prototypes by 2023 for initial ground benchmark tests before they can be cleared for its first flight in 2026 and enter production in 2029. Naval IMRH might take longer than its Army and Air Force variants and might be available sometime in 2030.

India set to conduct trials of Rafale fighter’s naval version

With India’s first indigenous aircraft carrier set to be commissioned as INS Vikrant in August 2022, the Indian Navy will conduct flight trials of the naval version of the Rafale fighter at its shore based test facility at INS Hansa in Goa from January 6 onwards as part of the exercise to identify the best warplane suited for the 40,000 tons carrier.

The Marine Rafale fighter will be pushed through an intensive trial at the 283metre mockup ski jump facility at INS Hansa for about 12 days to assess whether the aircraft is the best suited for Vikrant.

Rafale-M is lighter and smaller in airframe to F/A-18 Hornet, and packs more punch than its American counterpart in terms of the range of its air to air and air to land missiles. Vikrant may require structural modifications to cart F/A-18 Hornet from hanger to flight deck due to its comparatively larger airframe.

Astra Mk1 Demonstrated long range against Low RCS Target

Astra Mk1 took down a Banshee target drone in head on mode when it was about 87km away from the launch platform. This is a significant demonstration of the capability of the missile since target drones usually have very low Radar cross section (RCS) due to the small size of the drones making it very difficult to take down at long range.

Test confirmed that Astra Mk1 is capable of engaging a wide range of airborne targets autonomously, including cruise missiles with less than 1 meter square RCS. Astra Mk1 has a range ranging from 90km to 110km depending on the Target RCS and launch altitudes of the missile and in the last three trials, it has demonstrated maximum and minimum range against target drones even against manoeuvring targets.

Korea Briefs IAF Chief on KF-21 Boramae Program

Indian Air Force chief Air Chief Marshal VR Chaudhari who in his official tour of South Korea was briefed about Korea’s KF-21 Boramae program, which is a new fighter aircraft jointly been developed by South Korea and Indonesia. Earlier this year prototype of the first KF-21 was rolled out at KAIs Sacheon production facility.

KF-21 Boramae is a 4.5 Generation fighter jet program that can be later upgraded to a 5th generation fighter jet. KF-21 Mk1 will be a 4.5 generation fighter that will be tested and certified first and Mk-too will come with Internal Weapons Bay and Sealth coating that will make it a 5th generation fighter jet.

Backing TEDBF, Navy now reduces MRCBF requirements

The navy is now looking for 26 carrier borne fighters, This revised figure is for a reduced number of aircraft from that explored in a 2017 RFI for 57 aircraft.

This lower number is driven by expectations that reduced expenditure would be processed faster. This smaller buy is also because the MRCBF is now anticipated to be a stop gap, with expectations that the India’s indigenous Twin Engine Deck Based Fighter would take-off by 2026 to be inducted by 2032. But while the numbers are smaller, the acquisition needs to be addressed soon, given that India’s new Vikrant aircraft carrier is expected to be commissioned this year.

With the LCA Navy not considered fit for carrier operations and the capabilities of the in service MiG-29K expected to have diminishing relevance over the next decade, the buy is important even if downsized.
