Did the drdo promise that there would be an indigenous MD system in place at that time. In the public domain atleast, that India was working on this field was in itself a great surprise. The successful interception showed (actually they told before hand that there would be an intercept, which shows the confidence which they had in the system) the prior testing under bluffs was made.<BR/>The thing is according to me, this MD system was never promised but was suddenly unvieled to the public as a kheer. <BR/><BR/>Ravi<BR/><BR/>P.S: My last statement in its meaning is completely supportive of drdo and does not have sinister motives behind it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050542.post-54887372111313551342007-05-08T22:43:00.000+05:302007-05-08T22:43:00.000+05:30"DRDO's ABM programme is scheduled to be complete ...<B>"DRDO's ABM programme is scheduled to be complete in two phases by 2012-13. By this time the organisation hopes to replace both foreign radars currently in use, with medium and long-range radars being developed in-house by the Electronics Research & Development Organisation in Bangalore."</B><BR/><BR/>The Radar for the PAD was not the Greenpine. It was a modified version (highly modified in fact) of the greenpine, which had been developed by DRDO and ELTA together for the past few years (Source: Dr Saraswat's interview after PAD). Obviously, productionizing it would not be so tough.<BR/><BR/>Same seems to be the situation with the French radar.sniperz11https://www.blogger.com/profile/11613739977706693094noreply@blogger.com
