Mahendragiri is beautiful.

We should've put Kaveri in an LCA and flown it, performance didn't matter, the goal was to gain confidence and flight data. We failed to manage the program - Air Marshal Philip Rajkumar

INS Mahendragiri (F38), the sixth frigate of the indigenous Project 17A, commissioned into the Indian Navy's Eastern Fleet at Visakhapatnam today.

You know why BLA releases such a high quality Video of their attacks? Because they know ISI’s propaganda, that’s why they make sure everything is there for world to see.

Bhai 😂😂

Appreciate her courage and presence of mind, especially since her call-out was impromptu. It takes a fair amount of courage to do that, particularly so early in one's career.

The first @USNavy MQ-25A Stingray™ completed its second test flight, featuring the aircraft’s first airborne landing gear cycles. The milestone further validates the autonomous flight controls and performance capabilities, moving it closer to carrier operations.

India and Australia have unveiled a new Joint Declaration on Defence & Security Cooperation, elevating their partnership to a more advanced, integrated and operational level. Key takeaways: ♦️ Greater defence interoperability, intelligence sharing & strategic consultations ♦️ Expanded military exercises, aircraft deployments & personnel exchanges ♦️ New Maritime Security Collaboration Roadmap ♦️Deeper defence industrial, innovation & critical technology cooperation ♦️Enhanced cyber, counter-terrorism & supply chain resilience under Australia–India PACTS ♦️Stronger HADR coordination, including Quad logistics & evacuation planning ♦️Reaffirmed commitment to a free, open, rules-based Indo-Pacific, maritime security under UNCLOS, and closer cooperation with the Quad, US & Japan. A clear signal that the India–Australia defence partnership is transitioning from strategic convergence to operational integration. Press Release 🔗: pib.gov.in/PressReleasePa…

India's furthest humanitarian assistance mission till date, to earthquake-hit Venezuela, Operation Amistad, has concluded successfully. The Indian Army's 60 Para Field Hospital, supported by two BHISHM Cubes and over 36 tonnes of relief and medical supplies, provided critical medical assistance following the devastating earthquakes, conducting 8,000+ medical procedures and 20+ major surgeries. The mission underscores India's commitment to humanitarian assistance, disaster relief, and its role as a reliable first responder under the ethos of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam. mea.gov.in/press-releases…

DRDO is developing a new S-Band Instrumentation Tracking Radar thedefencematrix.in/drdo-is-develo…

DRDO is developing a new 12.7 x 99mm aviation machine gun with pod

Catching footage

DRDO conducted a successful flight-test of #Pinaka Long Range Guided Rocket (LRGR) at the Integrated Test Range (ITR), Chandipur on July 08, The rocket was tested for a user defined minimum range of 60 kms. Demonstrating all in-flight manoeuvres as planned, the LRGR impacted on the target with textbook precision exactly following the predicted trajectory. All the deployed range instruments tracked the flight throughout its trajectory. @indiatvnews @DRDO_India

Pinaka LRGR tested for user defined minimum range of 60km. It has a max range of 120Km.

@Scpaul29 You expect failure at prototyping stages as you are developing technologies. What kind of stupid logic is that? An operational aircraft crashing is a big deal, prototypes are vulnerable, a certified aircraft should be safe.

@Defencematrix1 Is that still better than a platform that can’t even pass basic testing parameters with an even worse crash record at the prototype testing stage ?

It’s falling Drishti AKA Elbit Hermes from the Skies. What a piece of Junk.

@Scpaul29 Total 2 has crashed out of 4 ordered.

@Defencematrix1 Why would 1 or even a few accidents seem one of India’s most important drones a piece of “junk” ? Isn’t this better than indigenous options that literally couldn’t take off or crashed during testing ?
