India has successfully conducted the maiden flight test of its long-range glide bomb (LRGB) named “Gaurav” from a Su-30 MK-I fighter jet of the Indian Air Force. The test, carried out off the coast of Odisha, demonstrated the bomb’s precision by hitting a target at Long Wheeler’s Island with pinpoint accuracy, as confirmed by the Ministry of Defence on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Defence Minister Rajnath Singh praised the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), the Indian Air Force, and industry partners for this significant achievement, describing the successful test as a major milestone in the country\u2019s ongoing efforts to develop indigenous defense technologies and enhance the capabilities of its armed forces.<\/p>\n

According to the ministry, “Gaurav” is an air-launched glide bomb weighing 1,000 kg, designed to strike targets at long distances. After being launched, the bomb navigates toward its target using a highly accurate hybrid navigation system.<\/p>\n

The project has been indigenously designed and developed by the Research Centre Imarat (RCI) in Hyderabad. During the flight test, telemetry and electro-optical tracking systems deployed by the Integrated Test Range along the coastline captured complete flight data, ensuring comprehensive monitoring of the trial.<\/p>\n

Senior DRDO scientists oversaw the flight, and the test involved participation from development-cum-production partners, including Adani Defence and Bharat Forge.<\/p>\n

Samir V Kamat, Secretary of the Department of Defence R&D and Chairman of DRDO, congratulated the entire DRDO team on the successful flight test of the Gaurav glide bomb, marking a significant advancement in India’s defense capabilities<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
