The indigenous pilotless aircraft
New Delhi, December 21
India's indigenous Lakshaya pilotless target aircraft was successfully flight tested to check user requirements for such a combat aerial vehicle.
"Bangalore-based Aeronautical Development Establishment conducted the flight test of Lakshya-2 successfully yesterday," a Defence Research and Development Organisation press release said here today.
The aircraft is built to meet anticipated users requirements for such a vehicle for testing out their guns and missiles and the users have indicated their requirement of flying it at very low altitudes of 15 to 25 metres above sea level to simulating trajectory of low-level cruise missiles.
"ADE prepared the Lakshya-2 with necessary hardware and software for meeting the user requirements. The flight test was of 32 minutes.”— TNS
