Building the future of aerospace propulsion! In India. 🧵on facilities, cost and timelines. 1️⃣ Engine Test Cells (with Altitude Simulation). The facility Simulates flight conditions (altitude, airspeed, thrust, afterburner)
•Cost: ₹500–700 Cr
•Time to Build: 36–42 months

🧵 Thread on manufacturing of a jet engine. I am trying to start simple and non nerd but eventually each of these segments will be threads in itself. The journey of a jet engine begins at the metallurgical level. High-purity Nickel-based superalloys are produced using Vacuum Induction Melting (VIM) followed by Vacuum Arc Remelting (VAR) to achieve exceptional cleanliness and uniformity in microstructure, essential for withstanding high-cycle fatigue (HCF) and creep conditions in turbine applications.

RM @rajnathsingh 's address in Lok Sabha: ⬇️

On 09 December 2022, PLA troops attempted to unilaterally change the status quo by encroaching on the Line of Actual Control, in the Yangtse area of Tawang sector. Our army faced this attempt of China with firmness.

1/N A scuffle ensued in this face-off. The Indian Army bravely stopped the PLA from encroaching on our territory, and forced them to withdraw to their posts. Some soldiers from both sides were injured in the skirmish.

BREAKING ⚡⚡⚡

Munition India Limited has released an EoI for Development of 155mm Smart Ammunition for all in-service Artillery Guns Systems i.e. 52/45/39 calibre under MAKE-1 category.

Representation 📸 The ammunition should be capable of being guided to the target by changing its designated course from its ballistic trajectory either by continuous guidance through GPS/GLONASS/IRNSS with INS..

Let's look at the armour of Indian army.
- Currently mainstay of IA armour is T90 bhishma. IA operates 1200+ units of these tanks.
- Tanks soon will be upgraded to carry APS.
- They will get new APFSDS with DoP of 600-800 MM. Eventually entire fleet of T90 Bhishma will be upgraded to near T90 MS standard.
- Many believe IA operates (Ordered) T90 MS already.
- However last order was for Bhishma not MS. IA will upgrade its existing fleet to those standard.
