Indo-Asian News Service | Updated: December 28, 2010 18:47 IST
Agra: India’s first indigenously-developed balloon-mounted radar that will greatly enhance the surveillance capabilities of the armed forces has been successfully launched.
The aerostat radar was launched from a military compound and will remain at a height of about one kilometre for the next two or three days. All its systems are working satisfactorily, Sudhir Gupta, the project director said.
The helium-filled aerostat has night vision cameras and sound recorders, weighs around 300 kg, and can be reused.

DRDO muddles through 439 projects

NEW DELHI: From missiles, radars and electronic warfare programmes to even juices, mosquito repellents and titanium dental implants, the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) does it all. And, by and large, flounders in them all, with technical glitches, time and cost overruns.

Antony tells defence PSUs to get their act together
Antony tells defence PSUs to get their act together
TNN Feb 15, 2007, 01.36am IST
NEW DELHI: Perform or perish. defence minister A K Antony used the platform of an awards function on Wednesday to deliver this blunt message to defence PSUs, ordnance factories and, of course, the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO).
In fact, the minister virtually asked DRDO — which is into making juices and mosquito repellents as well as tanks and missiles, as earlier reported by TOI — to concentrate only on “high-technology” areas of “strategic importance”.

Panel wants overhaul in DRDO’s set-up
Panel wants overhaul in DRDO’s set-up
Rajat Pandit, TNN Mar 19, 2007, 12.13am IST
NEW DELHI: Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) has taken yet another hit.
After being slammed for huge time and cost overruns in virtually all its projects, a parliamentary committee has now called for DRDO’s drastic overhaul if it’s to supply cutting-edge weapon systems to the armed forces in time.
And the “fundamental changes” must start at the very top. In its latest report tabled in Parliament on Friday, apart from recording Defence Research and Development Organisation’s “disappointing performance”, the Standing Committee on defence expressed its “displeasure”at the scientific advisor (SA) to the defence minister wearing so many hats.
