Project Kusha / Programme LRSAM / PGLRSAM
- Thread starter Fatalis
- Start date
No check the 2nd pic last entry, he mentioned its for carriers. It makes sense, a carrier for us is immense high value asset, possibly more than old arihant money wise. It costs good money , need high maintenance and will house another set of high value item in naval rafales. To protect such a dual value asset you need a larger AD bubble around it on its own irrespective of its escorts. hence perhaps the navy wanted one IAC specific version.
Seems MSC Enterprises has become the L1 bidder in the LRSAM warhead empty assy tender. So that is very good in terms of progress, soon the 2 warheads will be made by ARDE.
DAC recently cleared the procurement of LRSAM under Project Kusha. The development came after the project was approved by CCS. Back in Oct 2023 also reported that MoD cleared 5 units of LR-SAM for rs 21,700 crore
. Hope we induct our desi S-400 soon
I don't understand why CCS is approving procurement of systems that are in early development. Perhaps it's for developmental approval and estimating possible order numbers that are getting leaked to the press ?. Realistically, Production is at least 5 years away.
Few projects they expedite, like the bmd phases vshorads and this LRSAM now that MRSAM is in post production delivery & support phase gradually.
Certain strategically significant projects progress, we will hear very little about like LR-AShM LRSAM SLCM K. Developing a full missile checkout system much like what Brahmos got is an indicator of progress.

Not really technical development related, but the LRSAM projects actual infra+housing pre-work survey soil testing tender will be awarded soon , now only a matter of L1 declaration. Out of the 10 bids, 3 are rejected & 7 admitted. So hopefully L1 soon and work begins sharp. After this survey, civil planning work will start, then electrical work, specialised building & facility work etc.
though the 3 missile concept has got large, I kinda think its not different rage based, rather its service specific. One for IAF, one for IN and the other is IAC specific tweaked version which definitely needs ASBM ability. Further longer range project can be approved later with multi pulse (3 or more / throttled / online thrust variation) based system concept.

There are three missiles as all things point to that only. IAF and IN will get their own version of all the 3 missiles.
In case there was doubt about the IAC specific project , from the TCEC report (can share on request)
This missile is essentially a MRSAM+booster, our own version of the Bara-8 ER, correct? Since PGLRSAM isn't ready for testing yet, don't see how it could be a brand new design.
Could it be an adaptation of the Akash-NG+ booster?
We have so many SAMs under development right now, it's hard to tell which is which...

Dev cycle order lot are often so small its hard for both parties to stick to any set procedure.
The missile is the same Barak-8 that other ships use, without a booster.
Hello hello @Fatalis sirji is it good ? 
pic is actually seen and taken by neutronx first since I could not finish watching during lunchtime myself.
