India has prepared another indigenous deadly weapon by further strengthening its defense system. The 500 kg pre-fragmented bomb developed by the Defense Research and Development Organization (DRDO) is now going to give a tremendous lead in the strength of the Indian Air Force.
The 500 kg pre-fragmented bomb comes in the high-exclusive general public purpose bomb category, which has been designed in such a way that it can destroy maximum destruction in a limited area. These bombs were fully capable of penetrating smart design and effective targets, not only by weight or explosion.
Specialty of pre-fragmented bomb
The specialty of the specialty of pre-fragmented bomb is as follows
- Pre-fragmented design: Thousands of steel or tungsten pieces have already been filled inside the bomb. At the time of the explosion, these pieces spread to 360 degrees and sieve everything around, which causes more human and physical damage.
- Fit accuracy: This bomb is prepared in such a way that it can easily fit Indian fighter jets such as Sukhoi-30 MKI, Mirage-200 and Tejas weapons without any change.
- Low-cost, high impact: This bomb is not only impressive, but also cheaper than foreign weapons, which will also control the defense budget.
- Damage in large areas: This bomb can also destroy not only bunkers or soldiers, but also radar stations, runways, arms depots and forward operational base.
Why was this bomb made?
Given the increasing challenges of Pakistan and China on the borders of India, it became necessary to develop a weapon that could eliminate the enemy’s hidden terrorist camps and terror launch pads. LOC and LAC can destroy hidden bunkers on LAC. Have a greater impact in the limited scope and speed up military operations. The air-drop version of this bomb makes it extremely effective, especially when it comes to a mission like surgical strike or air strike.
DRDO’s indigenous success
DRDO is proud of this weapon as it has been completely designed and tested by Indian scientists. India is no longer dependent on any foreign technology in this category. In the coming time, this bomb will prove to be a “game changer” for the Indian Air Force. By adding the local defense industry to its construction, India has further strengthened its defense production system, which makes the attitude of Make in India and self -reliant India.
