The new radome has been developed by DRDO’s Research and Development Establishment (Engineers), or R&DE(E), in Pune. Once cleared after flight trials, it is expected to replace the imported radome presently used on the Tejas Mk1A and support the expanding production requirements of the fighter aircraft.
Its modular approach allows customers to select a standard satellite bus, integrate a mission-specific payload, obtain launch and separation hardware, and operate the spacecraft through Dhruva Space’s ground network. This reduces the engineering effort required to build every mission around a new spacecraft architecture.
Hindustan Shipyard Limited delivered the specialised vessel to the Navy at Visakhapatnam on July 30, 2026. Nipun was designed and constructed in accordance with the classification rules of the Indian Register of Shipping.
Xtreme Weather Grade Diesel has been formulated to overcome these limitations. It remains usable at temperatures down to minus 42 degrees Celsius, allowing military vehicles and equipment to function more reliably during severe winters.
AIRA forms the core processing and data-fusion layer of Digantara’s network. It receives measurements from space-based sensors, ground observatories and compatible external feeds, then processes them through the company’s Or-Eng orbit engine.
The Department of Atomic Energy has confirmed that the Bhabha Atomic Research Centre is developing a small demonstration molten salt reactor to validate the materials, fuel chemistry, components and operating systems required for the efficient use of thorium.
Firefly imagery can therefore support the detection of crop stress, nutrient deficiencies, irrigation problems and disease risk. Repeated observations allow agricultural agencies, insurers and farm-management companies to compare crop development across fields and identify areas requiring attention.
Minister of State for Defence Sanjay Seth highlighted the contribution of MSMEs, start-ups and private companies in developing indigenous defence equipment, components and technologies. These enterprises increasingly support major defence manufacturers and public-sector undertakings by supplying precision components, electronics, materials, software, subsystems and maintenance services.
Indian manufacturers are now exporting toys to markets including the United States, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Germany. The sector’s expansion reflects a combination of mandatory safety standards, higher import duties, cluster development, startup participation, export incentives and initiatives encouraging toys rooted in Indian culture and learning traditions.
Agnikul uses metal additive manufacturing to consolidate the principal combustion hardware into a single Inconel structure. Its Agnilet and Agnite semi-cryogenic engines integrate the injector, combustion chamber and regenerative cooling channels within the printed assembly. After printing, the hardware undergoes computed-tomography inspection, heat treatment, grinding and cleaning before testing or flight integration.
