India made electronic warfare systems for IAF Mig-29s and LCA

I guess russia is a trusted partner or else isreal who built ew suite for mki can be trusted. Or do we fear that our tech is superior to theirs and they will steal our tech ?


It is not about trust. It is about "Deewaron ke bhi kaan hote hain!"

If you really wanna keep a secret, keep it with the minimum possible number of people.

And I don't think our tech is superior to the israelis or the russians. But the fact that it is completely ours is a big stregnth in itself.

So let me make a bold statement, it is not completely ours, may be a secret, but I really don't mind keeping such secrets. If India can spend 2 B dollars on AMCA which is nowhere near to reality, it can surely employee brightest brain from anywhere in the world to get things done for herself..
 
Yeah I think its Mayavi and the initial testing as the report says will be conducted in Gwalior. But the final testing will be done at the ranges developed in Andhra and Karnataka. Good work by India.

Israelis are looking forward to install these system in F35 replacing the F35 original, so it can be inferred that it is the best.

It is not just about money.....There is a thing called comfort and this is where we lack by a big margin when compared with western countries...
 
India made electronic warfare systems for IAF Mig-29s and LCA

Indian Air Force(IAF)’s Mig-29 and the home-made ’Tejus’ Light Combat Aircraft (LCA) will have electronic warfare(EW) systems developed by India’s DRDO from next year onwards. The older Mig-27 fighters are being equipped this year and operational trials are scheduled next year.


The tests would be held at two brand new EW ranges that the DRDO is building in the southern Indian states of Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh, said Prahlada, Chief Controller, R & D of DRDO. He was speaking at an EW conference in Bangalore. The two would be part of the 4,000-acre aeronautical test range in Chitradurga, some 200 km from Bangalore, and the 8,000-acre one in Tandur, some 135 km from Hyderabad.

Once the two new testing ranges are operational in 2012-13, experimental and R & D tests can be conducted, said Prahlada. At present, EW systems are tested in the IAF range in Gwalior in a limited way.

In 2012, Prahlada said India would fly a fourth-generational EW system, which is being developed by Defence Avionics Research Establishment and Defence Electronics Research Laboratory.
