IAF, DRDO conduct successful flight tests of RudraM-II Air-to-Surface missile
New Delhi [India], June 2 : The Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and the Indian Air Force (IAF) on Tuesday successfully conducted flight tests of the RudraM-II air-to-surface missile from an SU-30 MKI fighter jet. The tests were carried out under extreme release conditions and along a critical trajectory, demonstrating the capability of all the Anti-Radiation Missiles subsystems. According to the Ministry of Defence, the missile successfully guided itself to a predefined target after launch and struck it with pinpoint accuracy. All trial objectives were achieved, as confirmed by flight data collected through various range instruments deployed by the Integrated Test Range (ITR) at Chandipur, Odisha. RudraM-II is an indigenously developed, solid-propellant air-launched missile designed for air-to-surface missions. The weapon is intended to neutralise a wide range of enemy assets and incorporates several advanced indigenous technologies developed by various DRDO laboratories. The missile has been developed by Research Centre Imarat (RCI), Hyderabad, the nodal DRDO laboratory for the project, in collaboration with other DRDO facilities including the Defence Research and Development Laboratory (DRDL), High Energy Materials Research Laboratory (HEMRL), Armament Research and Development Establishment (ARDE), and ITR. Several Development-cum-Production Partners (DcPPs), along with agencies such as Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL), the Regional Centre for Military Airworthiness (RCMA), the Missile System Quality Assurance Agency (MSQAA), and other industry partners, also contributed to the programme. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh lauded the efforts of DRDO, the IAF, defence public sector undertakings, industry partners and other stakeholders involved in the project, the MoD statement added. He stated that the tests have demonstrated the growing maturity of indigenous defence technologies, contributing significantly to Aatmanirbharta in advanced weapon systems. Secretary, Department of Defence R&D and Chairman DRDO also congratulated all teams associated with the programme for the successful achievement. The latest tests mark another milestone in Indias efforts to strengthen its indigenous missile capabilities. In May 2024, DRDO had successfully flight-tested the RudraM-II missile from a Sukhoi Su-30MKI fighter aircraft off the coast of Odisha. The trial met all objectives and validated the missiles propulsion system as well as its control and guidance algorithms. The missiles performance during the 2024 trial was assessed through data collected by electro-optical systems, radar and telemetry stations deployed by ITR Chandipur at multiple locations, including an onboard ship. Earlier, on May 2, 2024, DRDO had successfully flight-tested Indias first indigenously developed New Generation Anti-Radiation Missile (NGARM), also known as RudraM-I, at the Chandan Range in Rajasthan. The missile achieved its intended range and struck the target with a miss distance of just five metres. The test successfully demonstrated the operation of the missiles warhead during the terminal phase of flight. Launched from a Sukhoi-30MKI aircraft of the IAF, the missile accurately navigated towards its target before the warhead detonated and destroyed it. The trial validated several key technologies, including safe weapon separation from the aircraft, the dual-pulse solid propulsion system, guidance and control algorithms, electro-mechanical actuation systems, the end-game processor based on laser altimeter measurements, and the safe-arm mechanism used for warhead detonation. RudraM-I has been designed primarily for Suppression of Enemy Air Defences (SEAD) missions. Developed by DRDL, Hyderabad, as the nodal laboratory, the project received support from several DRDO laboratories including RCI, Advanced Systems Laboratory (ASL), Defence Electronics Research Laboratory (DLRL), ARDE, HEMRL, Instruments Research and Development Establishment (IRDE), ITR, and Terminal Ballistics Research Laboratory (TBRL), along with multiple industry partners.

India calls for dialogue, diplomacy amid Israeli offensive in Lebanon, Iran-US talks suspension
New Delhi [India], June 2 : India on Monday reiterated its call for dialogue and diplomacy to restore peace and stability in West Asia amid escalating tensions in Lebanon due to increased Israeli military operations and Irans call for suspension of peace talks with the US due to such actions. Responding to a question during the weekly media briefing on the ongoing Israeli military offensive in Lebanon and its wider regional implications, MEA Official Spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said India has been closely monitoring developments in the region. We have been closely following the developments in the West Asia region and our point right from the very beginning has been that dialogue and diplomacy are the way forward for achieving an early return of peace and stability, Jaiswal said. He added that India continues to convey this position consistently in its engagements with all concerned parties. This comes in the wake of the worsening security situation in Lebanon, where Israeli military operations have resulted in significant casualties and damage, as well as making territorial gains on the southern side of Lebanon. On Sunday, Netanyahu said Israeli forces have captured Beaufort Castle in southern Lebanon despite the ongoing ceasefire between the two sides and instructed the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) to further expand the incursion in Lebanon. Last night, our heroic fighters captured the Beaufort castle. They proudly raised the flag of the State of Israel and the flag of the Golani Brigade there, Netanyahu said in a televised statement. I remind you that 44 years ago, this place was a symbol of a heroic battle by our fighters, but it was also a symbol of deep division among us. Today, we returned to Beaufort differently. We returned united, determined, and stronger than ever, he added. Netanyahu further stated that the capture marks a significant turn in Israels military campaign, reflecting unity and determination among Israeli forces. On Monday, Netanyahu and Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz had instructed the countrys defence forces to conduct strikes against terror targets in Beirut in response to what it has called Hezbollahs repeated violations of the ceasefire in Lebanon. Following such actions, Iranian Parliament Speaker MB Ghalibaf, who is also the head of the Iranian negotiation team, has warned that if Israels attacks continue, Iran will not only halt the dialogue process with the US but will also stand firmly against them. US President Donald Trump also lashed out at Netanyahu during a heated telephone conversation on Monday, holding the Israeli leader responsible for generating global animosity towards his nation, Axios reported. The confrontation was triggered after Iran issued a warning threatening to halt diplomatic engagements. This prompted an aggressive intervention from the US President, who at one point yelled at Netanyahu, What the f*** are you doing? According to a US official cited by Axios, Trump expressed immense frustration over what he perceived as a disproportionate military response to Hezbollahs strikes on Israel. (ANI)
