Talk by APVS Prasad of ADE on "Challenges in Design and Development of MALE UAV TAPAS - 201"

  • Its a 2-3 ton UAV
  • 1,800kg -> 2,800kg, inital design -> first prototype
    dude.png
  • Want to reduce the weight by 280 kgs.
  • Single engine twin boom design was optimal

  • Uses GAGAN semi-auto take off and landing (ATOL)
  • Full ATOL in development
  • One variant cannot meet all service requirements.
  • Single engine twin-boom configuration in future.

Talk by Gargi Meharu of HAL on "Conceptual Design of Amphibious Aircraft"


HAL's ambitious amphibian design (SAGAR) specs:
1. 15 tons payload
2. Range 4000 kms
3. Loiter time: 1.5 hours
4. Service ceiling: 9 km
5. Gross weight: 47 Tons
6. Twin turbofan: 133 kN each
7. 100 passengers
8. fuselage length: 32 mtrs
9. T Tail

Talk by P Mahuli of CEMILAC on "Concurrent Certification in the Design & Development of HTT 40 Basic Trainer Aircraft"

  • P&W was the first choice of engine which they declined. (Pilatus ?)
  • It just took 11 months to detailed design to first prototype
  • HTT-40 did 38+ test flights
  • DM reviewed the project 8 times in 11 months before first flight. His support was crucial.
  • Reused LRUs from LCA,HTT-36 and ALH

Talk by Wg Cdr MA Dubey of IAF on "Indigenisation: Challenges & Way Ahead for Indian Air Force"


Talk by Gp Capt PK Anand of IAF on "Indigenous Product Development: Make in India"


  • Marut was a success but we failed to follow up on it.
  • DPSUs become comfortable with licence manufacturing.
  • There is a separate department for Indigenisation in IAF MC
  • MSMEs are participating while big companies are reluctant.
  • 45000+ spears are Indigenised with the help of MSMEs
  • More than 90% of the routine spears are now indian for IAF MC
  • Focus is now on high tech items.
  • Most of the Indigenisation done by IAF MC is reverse engineering.
  • New IDDM is a step forward for Make in india
  • IAF is building up in house R&D capabilities. (At least for realistic ASR

Talk by P Radhakrishna of LRDE on "Development of Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) Radar for Fighter Aircraft - An Indian Scenario"

  • UTTAM AESA for LCA is ready !
    partay.gif
    (hardware and software qualified), flight testing is what left.
  • Waiting for LCA PV1 modifications.
  • For a AESA radar 50% is software.
  • Its fully indian, power amplifier was denied. So, we made a better one.

    (Thanks to Astra microwave )
  • Liquid cooling system.
  • BEL and Astra microwave are major partners.
  • 4 T/R module in one. 4000 QTRM already produced.
  • This QTRM will be used on 2-3 more ground based "Strategic programs".
Looks like LCA will get AESA before eurofighter

  • Six guns in making
  • Ultra light gun ready in months for trial
  • Kalyani group is working on a 120kgf and 350kgf gas turbine engines. And a 900shp-1200shp turboshaft engine.

Where can we see this videos
 
Found a good discussion/presentation on Electro optics & photonics , by one of ISRO scientist, later discussion session was joined by someone from LRDE too. Hope they are working on photonics & radar related application @Rajput Lion

Great find @marich01 (y)

Now I am calling out all those people who labelled me "Resident Optimist 2", lol.

In all seriousness though, what our scientists are doing is absolutely amazing. Just hope that soon we make a breakthrough in Photonics just like we have made in GaN.

One by the former Brahmos chief Sudhir Mishra sir, mainly on brahmos


One by Dr Surendra Pal sir, founder program director of GAGAN & navic programs


This one is by someone from TASL, I kept it at the time did not know much about their work. One thing I got was their involvement in LRLACM project with DRDO
