RD-33 number is 180 I think. HAL's actual money to make up for any current FY come from ROH side, very lucrative business.

Since there is no topic about the Armenian army, I am publishing it here. The Armenian Army continues to strengthen its units with foreign-made weapons. Armenia reportedly signed a $41 million contract with the Indian company Zen Technologies Ltd to purchase the ZADS anti-drone system. The ZADS complex was developed in 2020 and allows for classification, tracking and passive surveillance of drones. The complex is equipped with a radio frequency drone detector, radar, video cameras and drone suppression equipment. 3D X-band radar detects drones and provides precise target coordinates to jam drone communications. The video cameras of the Zen complex are capable of identifying a drone at a range of up to 3 kilometers. The complex can be equipped with a special drone with a hanging net to capture small-sized enemy drones. The exact characteristics of the ZADS complex are unknown.

‘Well-positioned to deliver engines for Navy warships’: Caterpillar Marine official​


In India, with its vast coastline and strategic maritime interests, the need for sustainable and efficient engines is important.

CHENNAI: The Russia-Ukraine conflict has disrupted the supply of marine gas turbine engines for the Indian Navy’s warships, previously sourced mainly from the Ukrainian company, Zorya-Mashproekt. With supply chain disruptions from the ongoing conflict, the Indian Navy is now looking for local engine solutions. Building on this alignment with the ‘Make in India’ initiative and Defence Acquisition Policy, CAT Marine, a subsidiary of Caterpillar Marine, has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Garden Reach Shipbuilders & Engineers Ltd (GRSE), a premier shipbuilding company under the Ministry of Defence. In an interview with The New Indian Express, Revanna B L, governmental segment manager-Asia Pacific, Caterpillar Marine, highlights the significance of the MoU.
