The Defence Ministry today issued the Request for Proposal for the mega indigenous fifth-generation Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft project to the three shortlisted bidders, including Larsen and Toubro-Bharat Electronics Limited, Tata Advanced Systems and Bharat Forge-BEML: Defence Officials
Development trials of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Launched Precision Guided Missile-V3 in Air-to-Ground & Air-to-Air modes was successfully completed at DRDO test range near Kurnool, Andhra Pradesh.
Humbled to share that we successfully test fired 4 semi-cryogenic rocket engines simultaneously, as a cluster.
All the 4 engines are 3d printed as single pieces of hardware - designed and manufactured in-house at AgniKul Cosmos Rocket Factory - 1. As with all our propulsion systems, these 4 engines are also powered by electric motor driven pumps.
This test involved calibrating 8 pumps, 8 motors and tuning 8 speed control algorithms to work together in perfect sync to achieve uniform startup, steady state and shutdown performance across the entire system. As with the last cluster test, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first time such a test has been performed in India with semi cryogenic engines.
We are extremely grateful to have the opportunity to be building world class, original space technology from India, for the world with the support of @iitmadras@isro and @INSPACeIND
From here on, the addition of engines to our clusters will likely increase non-linearly. #Agnibaan #RocketEngineCluster #ElectricPumpFedEngines #Agnilet #SinglePieceEngine #3dprinting #RocketEngineTest #AdditiveManufacturing #Agnikul #AgnikulCosmos #StartupIndia #MakeinIndia #madeinIndiaForTheWorld

DRDL Hyderabad has conducted second successful extensive long-duration test of Actively Cooled Full Scale Scramjet Combustor, achieving a run time of over 1200 seconds at its state-of-the-art Scramjet Connect Pipe Test (SCPT) Facility on May 09, 2026. This is major advancement towards Hypersonic Missile Programme
Advanced Agni missile with MIRV (Multiple Independently Targeted Re-Entry Vehicle) system was successfully tested from Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam Island, Odisha on 08th May 2026.
The missile was flight tested with Multiple payloads, targeted to different targets spatially distributed over a large geographical area in Indian Ocean Region.
A year ago, our armed forces displayed unparalleled courage, precision and resolve during #OperationSindoor. They gave a fitting response to those who dared to attack innocent Indians at Pahalgam. The entire nation salutes our forces for their valour.
Operation Sindoor reflected India’s firm response against terrorism and an unwavering commitment to safeguarding national security. It also highlighted the professionalism, preparedness and coordinated strength of our armed forces. At the same time, it showcased the growing jointness among our forces and underlined the strength that India’s quest for self-reliance in the defence sector has brought to our national security.
Today, a year later, we remain as steadfast as ever in our resolve to defeat terrorism and destroy its enabling ecosystem.
A few years ago, building a global rocket company from India felt almost impossible.
Today, Vikram-1, India’s first private orbital rocket, is at the spaceport in Sriharikota — and @SkyrootA has raised $60M at a valutation of $1.1B, backed by some of the world’s most reputed investors.
The round was co-led by Sherpalo Ventures and GIC, with participation from funds managed by BlackRock, the founders of Greenko Group, Arkam Ventures, Playbook Partners, Shanghvi Family Office, and others.
Honoured to welcome Ram Shriram, one of Silicon Valley’s most respected investors and a longtime Google board member, to Skyroot’s board.
Now, on to the spaceport with Vikram-1. Excited to get to Lift-off soon. 🔥🚀
