Media: another test launch of the Indian rocket Nirbhay ended in failure

60
In India, the regular test launch of the ground-to-ground Nirbhay medium-range cruise missile failed, reports MIC With reference to yesterday's message of the newspaper "Business Standard".

Start Nirbhay in October 2014

According to the newspaper, "a cruise missile was launched from the Chandipur test site in the state of Odish in eastern India."

According to the sources of the publication, “the launch took place in a regular mode, despite some problems during the pre-launch preparation”.

“However, after 11 minutes after launch, the rocket left the calculated trajectory and collapsed into the Bay of Bengal,” writes Business Standard. “With a range of applications from 750 to 1000 km, the test sample covered the distance only in 128 km.”

The newspaper reminds that “the first test launch of this type of cruise missiles in March 2013 also ended in failure - the rocket fell after 20 minutes of flight, and during the second launch in October of 2014, Nirbhai failed to reach a predetermined height.”

It is noted that the Nirbhai subsonic is being developed for the Indian army "as a supplement to the joint Russian-Indian supersonic BrahMos rocket with a range of about 290 km."

The Nirbhai is a two-stage cruise missile with a length of 6 m and a diameter of 0,52 m. The wingspan of its wings is 2,7 m, the combat load is up to 1,5 t.

          Is it time to do something with the INF Treaty?

          It turns out that one can, the other can not.

          You must either sign it all or cancel it

          It’s better, of course, to sign everyone

          So, soon the third countries will also have airborne missile carriers, we will be at a disadvantage in Eurasia

          Or, we need to build more marine carriers

            -----------------------------
            Putin mentioned that we are even lagging behind in equipment. Third countries have already decently increased their power, China alone pulled out such an assortment of missiles to the parade that it will not seem like a little ... As for India, she is apparently trying to build an analogue of the "Tomahawk" herself, but so far she has reached what she has reached ...

              But he did not say where we are lagging behind. Maybe from the planned plan? "Caliber" was also not included in the number of strategic weapons. So no one has yet learned the ultimate range thereof. It is enough that we have learned to swallow tongues for a week.

        You cannot buy a long-range "lionfish". The contract gets in the way.
        And help in creating missiles with a launch range of over 300 km
        It's okay, brahmos is already flying. Now our guys will be removed from the brahmos and they will bring this rocket to mind.
        also falls under non-proliferation.

        Our about brahmos there for a long time. They have many local students who can turn to them with a question. And you can go into cases of need for them to production without a pale. It’s already sunbathed for a long time and probably in Hindi they’re no worse than locals.

      And what prevents to sell the Storm, Buran. The missiles are old, which Khrushchev blocked the road to the conveyor. They are not listed in any contracts, but they can help solve many problems and discrepancies. There will be a glider and spent engines. And the control system, on a modern element base , bring already easier.

        Do not smack nonsense! It hurts! (with)

        About the glider. Storm - diameter 2,2m; Hindu - “Nirbhai” - 0,52m !!!
        Engines. I believe that what stood on the Bure (the foremost in the 60s of the 20th century!) Today will take its rightful place ... only in the museum of the history of rocket propulsion engineering!
        Control system. We'll beat analog toys into numbers, like "swords into plowshares," so what?
        And to understand all ... the flawedness that you have proposed, I will cite photo of our strategic monster La-350! (D = 7500km, V = 3,5M; Vigorous megaton class head). The real horror of our partners today because of the puddle! But there was not enough money for everything, and preference was given to the royal R-7 ...

    The racket got lost. It happens . Ah, Indians, Indians, allies ... And why do our missiles hit the target? The drunken ensigns of the Russian Army, the dumbfounded sergeants, the dead lieutenants, and our planes are cardboard and rusty ... Fear of the unfortunate, but organons got confused. Compassion for woodpeckers ...

    Sadness, however.
    But it could have fallen on the Blue Ridge or George Washington from the US 7th fleet :-(
    Where are they by the way now?
    For example: "Roosevelt" on the 13th completed its 6-month b / s in the Middle East and left the zone of the 5th fleet (the Strait of Hormuz passed on the 9th), on the 14th it arrived to the shores of India to participate in the Malabar exercises (starting on the 19th) ©

    They have an unhealthy desire to do everything on their territory.

    A completely healthy desire of the country to enter the group of leaders. And do not buy everything from everyone, but do it yourself so that they buy yours

    Bramos is just an Onyx rocket whose technology was simply passed on to the Indians. This is the only time they have succeeded.

    Far from the only one. Although co-development has given India new technology. They get pretty good both BR and, in principle, LVs, although India still doesn’t reach the leading countries in this respect

    And how they do it themselves is evidenced by the accidents with their Su-30MKI. Assembled by playful Indian pens from our machine kits. What they don’t find there after the accidents: chips in oil and stratification of composites. Why the French and Rafals on products made in India refused to give a guarantee ...

    There is nothing supernatural in this. There is a formation of the military industry of India. And as for the shavings - in our 70s, tow was found in missile pipelines ...

    Nor can it reach the specified characteristics after 14 years of development ...

    And with us, everything works out even 14 after the start of development? Remind "Angara"? or how was the Bulava going?

    The tests, by the way, are second. During the first flew almost 1000 km. The laser gyro is out of order ... So what? The problem is fixed ...

    Well you just luminary from aviation. Even Tupolev, looking at the photo of this could not.

    The scheme of their CR repeats the scheme of our Grenade / Caliber, Ukrainian KiteAmerican TomahawkChinese DH-10. And nothing all flew. And then you looked with your perspicacious gaze and said - DO NOT FLY
