Video Context: STFE will cater to 5 missiles - Nirbhay, LR-LACM-IN, LR-LACM-IAF, ITCM, and SLCM.
IMHO, Nirbhay with indeginous STFE is ITCM and Army has not deployed any of these missiles. I don't think as of now Army is the customer for LR-LACM, only Airforce and Navy are.
Yes, three different missiles SLCM, LR-LACM and another air launched subsonic missile. First two confirmed. A storm shadow analogue is inevitable.
Also, we still don't know the propulsion of MR-NASM. It's possible that it's STFE.
Good news everyone!

It's kind of generic imo. Like saying IAF is looking to induct 114 MRFA fighter jets.
Let's wait for something more concrete.
More than that, I believe it prob hints at the upcoming test if it is Ajit K Dubey report. ANI reported on Pralay recently and it was tested a while after. This may be a similar case + we saw tenders of a test planned for Nov-Dec period.
1)tells the much celebrated rumour of Nirbhay's secret induction against a secret enemy at secret front at secret date & time is nothing but a hoax or propaganda, as I said earlier.
2) it's nothing but a generic statement.
I dont think so. Why do you say that? Thats a loyal wingman program as far as i know.
Hunter is probably that missile thing in the covered box, so technically qualifies as ALCM I guess. Cats warrior is the wingman drone.
All are called hunter right? Probably concept.
Whatever airlaunched subsonic missile comes first would be from the makers of LRLACM. Simply it's in more advanced stage.
Why waste with this PR work. Just wait for derivative missiles to mature. Order Pralay for the time being.
No not all, this is a specific version suited to the drone, see probably a smaller warhead version is the alcm hunter. Others are swarm munition like alfa. I had a presentation on this somewhere. Will dig out sometimes.
Those of us who hold ADE in very high regard will be delighted to know they are involved in SLCM project, which is not a surprise tbh given its likely a subsonic projectile. Anyway, it is using an S band programmable telemetry transmitter, kind of suggests a long range mission?
