In July 2024, DRDO's 'AD Launch Site' for future BMD tests was suspended due to fishermen's concerns regarding temporary restrictions during missile tests.
The new Chief Minister has stated that the project has now been approved and fast-tracked.

HAL's Utility Helicopter Maritime (UH-M)
We asked some Important questions regarding UH-M, LCH & LUH to Wg Cdr Subash P John (Retd.) who is executive director, Chief test pilot (Rotatory Wing) HAL.
The camera got tilted in between and the audio is not as clear but understandable if you focus.

Here is a look at the latest, updated design of HAL's HLFT-42.
Do note:
• The wings are no longer low mounted. They are now mid mounted.
• The tail and spine have minor changes.
• The air intakes are now low mounted and very different from previous iterations. They look similar to that of the LCA AF Mk2.
It is unclear whether this is the only design configuration currently being pursued.

Felt obliged to post an update regarding this & the accompanied assertions: CVRDE has recently issued RFIs seeking partners for a new 1500 HP engine & transmission. The powerpack, named CV1500A, is confirmed to have a T-type config (longitudinal engine, transverse transmission).

DRDO-LRDE's airborne radars can be categorized based on the architectures being used. The plank architecture (Uttam) supports dipole antennas. The newer, more compact tile architecture (Virupaksha) can house high bandwidth Vivaldi antennas.
New details are discussed as follows:🧵

Since the last thread had a good reception, I will be somewhat continuing the lore with the various ammunition types made for the Arjun over it's development period till date.

I was not wrong. DRDO's lighter "Shoulder Fired VSHORAD: missile has just broken cover. But it has pleasantly surprised me in a few ways.
It is certainly not your grandfather's Igla/Stinger. It's reflective of a missile designed in 2025 by a missile powerhouse.
