🔴 BREAKING: INDIAN AIR FORCE and DRDO Working on AURA UCAV STEALTH Bomber (GHATAK UCAV)
AURA (GHATAK) is an autonomous unmanned combat air vehicle (UCAV), being developed by the Defence Research and Development Organisation for the Indian Air Force and Indian Navy. The design work on the UCAV is to be carried out by Aeronautical Development Agency (ADA). Details of the project are classified. The UCAV will be capable of releasing missiles, bombs and precision-guided munitions. The programme is in its project definition stage. The design is in line with what former DRDO chief controller for Aeronautics said in 2007, that India's combat drone would be a stealthy flying-wing concept aircraft with internal weapons bay and a turbofan engine The ADA describes the AURA as a "self-defending high-speed reconnaissance UAV with weapon firing capability". The first images released as part of a presentation shows the UAV as having a stealth design. The AURA will cruise at medium altitude and will be capable of carrying two or more guided strike weapons with on-board sensors for targeting and weapon guidance. The flight control system and data link packages of Aura (unmanned combat aerial vehicle) will be designed and developed jointly by ADA and Defence Electronics Application Laboratory. DRDO's Chief Controller, R&D (aeronautics), Dr Prahlada said, "Capable of flying at altitudes of 30,000 feet and weighing less than 15 tonnes, the UCAVs will have rail-launching for the missiles, bombs and PGMs (precision-guided munitions) they will carry." A non-afterburning[9] variant of Kaveri was said to be used in the UCAV.[10] In 2015 Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar informed Rajya Sabha that AURA will be powered by a Kaveri derivative engine ("dry" engine). On 13 November 2015, it was reported that Indian government is set to allocate Rs 3000 crore for development of advance version of Kaveri Engine named Ghatak to power India's Unmanned Combat Air Vehicle(UCAV) AURA. What is a stealth UCAV ? An unmanned combat aerial vehicle (UCAV), also known as a combat drone or drone, is an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that usually carries aircraft ordnance such as missiles. Aircraft of this type have no onboard human pilot. These drones are usually under real-time human control, with varying levels of autonomy as the operator runs the vehicle from a remote terminal, resulting in a lower weight and a smaller size than a manned aircraft. While several nations possess and manufacture unarmed UAV, only the United States,India, Israel, Italy, China, are at present known to have manufactured operational UCAV as of December 2015 and as RUSSIA this project due to cost issues. #DRDOAura #GhatakUCAV #FalconHawkMediaGroup Share the video to spread the word!
