AEROSPACE:
What is aerospace?
Aerospace comprises the atmosphere of
Earth and surrounding space. Typically
the term is used to refer to the industry
that researches, designs, manufactures,
operates, and maintains vehicles moving
through air and space. Aerospace is a
very diverse field, with a multitude of
commercial, industrial and military
applications.
INDIAN AEROSPACE RESEARCH:
The Indian aerospace research began as soon as 1958,
when DRDO was established.
It is now one of the most active aerospace research
centers in India and it is one of Asia's largest defence
contractors .
The organized Indian civil aerospace research dates
back to 1969, when ISRO was formed.
The Indian aerospace sector grew very fast under the
abled scientists of ISRO, DRDO, HAL….etc
ConTInUE…
The Indian aerospace research sector can be divided
into parts:
Space research.
Missiles.
Fighter planes research and
manufacturing.
Manufacturing of normal planes.
SPACE RESEARCH OF INDIA:
As in the previous slides, the Indian space research
was started in the year 1969 with the establishment
of ISRO.
The father of Indian space research and the main
person behind the establishment of ISRO is ―Dr.
Vikram Ambalal Sarabhai‖.
In his memory, the centre for the development of
satellite launch vehicles and associated technologies
was named after him ―Vikram Sarabhai Space
Centre‖.
India is one of the few countries to have its own
space program.

Introduction
Indian troops rout the British. The English
confrontation with Indian rockets came in
1780 at the Battle of Guntur. The closely
massed, normally unflinching British
troops broke and ran when the Indian
Army laid down a rocket barrage in their
midst.
However, the modern missile s
research or the technology was
pioneered by our former president
Dr.A.P.J.Abdul Kalam, popularly known
as ―The Missile Man of India‖.
The most prominent missile program
of India is Integrated Guided Missile
Development Program. This program
was under the leadership of
Dr.A.P.J.Abdul Kalam.
The program aimed at development
of a comprehensive range of missiles.
Integrated Guided Missile Development
Program:
The Integrated Guided Missile Development Program (IGMDP) was an Indian
Ministry of Defence program between the early 1980s and 2007 for the
development of a comprehensive range of missiles.
The program was managed by Defence Research and Development
Organization (DRDO) in partnership with other Indian government labs and
research centres.
The project was started in early 1980s and resulted in the development of
several key strategic missiles.
The last major missile developed under the program was Agni-3
intermediate-range ballistic missile which was successfully tested on 9
July 2007.
the DRDO announced that it will be closing the IGMDP program formally
since most of the missiles in the program have been developed and
inducted into Indian armed forces.

BrahMos is a supersonic cruise missile that can be
launched from submarines, ships, aircraft or land. It is a
joint venture between India's DRDO and Russia's NPO
Mashinostroeyenia who have together formed BrahMos
Aerospace Private Limited.
It travels at speeds of Mach 2.5 to 2.8.
It is the India’s supersonic cruise missile.
Shaurya Missile:
The Shaurya missile is a short-range surface-to-surface
ballistic missile developed by DRDO for use by the Indian
Army.
Capable of hypersonic speeds, it has a range of 600 km.
Shaurya missile is a land version of the under-water
launched K-15 missile, Sagarika (missile).
INTRODUCTION:
The research and manufacture of fighter planes is mainly done
by the defence organizations.
