Indo – France Maitri (QRSAM) Missile
INTRODUCTION
• The Maitri missile project is a next-generation quick-reaction Surface-to-Air Missile (QRSAM) with
a lethal near-hundred per cent kill probability (according to manufacturer's claim) under
development by India's Defence Research and Development Organisation.
• It is a short-range (15 km, 9.3 mi) surface-to-air point defense missile system.
• The Maitri missile should not be confused with the similar Indian Army Low-Level Quick Reaction
Missile system (LLQRM) requirement.
• The missile will fill the gap created by the Indian government's decision to wind up development of
the Trishul point defense missile system.
• It is believed to be a blend of the French Mica and DRDO Trishul.
• Maitri will build on the work done by DRDO while developing the Trishul missile, using technology
transfer from MBDA to fill the technological gaps that led to the failure of the Trishul project.
DEVELOPMENT
• On 15 July 2009, The Telegraph reported that the project was scrapped.
• But later, in June 4, 2010 Indian Express reported that, "After moving ahead with similar
projects with Russia and Israel, India is set to finalise a missile co-development project with
France to manufacture a new range of Short Range Surface to Air Missiles (SRSAM) for the
armed forces.
• From 2007-2010, MBDA and DRDO finalised the design and performance parameters of
the missile to suit the needs of the Indian armed forces.
• The Maitri missile project involved a technological collaboration between MBDA, India’s
Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and defence public sector unit
Bharat Dynamics Limited.
• Defence Research and Development Laboratory (DRDL), a premier missile laboratory of
DRDO, will act as the main design centre in India.
• The project, with a budget of US$500 million was said to have been signed in May 2007.
DESIGN
• The principal contribution of MBDA will be in providing be the active
homing-head, thrust vector control, terminal guidance system and
composites for a modified propulsion system for the missile, while the
software, command-and-control system, the launchers and system
integration work would be carried out by the DRDL.
• MBDA has agreed to transfer all sensitive technology such as the seeker
and thrust vector control system to India, allowing India to manufacture
the Maitri missile locally as well as support them.
RADAR
• The Electronics & Radar Development Establishment
(LRDE), Bangalore, would develop two indigenous radars
for the Maitri project.
• These would be new-generation variants of Central
Acquisition Radar (3D-CAR), with the ability to track 150
targets simultaneously at a distance of 200 kilometers.
• The naval variant would be called the Revati and the air
force version would be called Rohini.
VARIANTS
•A ship-borne point and tactical air
defense version for the Navy
•A mobile wheeled and tracked system for
use by the Air Force and Army
FUTURE
•Development of the missile is expected to be
completed within three years of the project go-ahead,
when initial testing will commence.
•Over 1000 missiles are expected to be produced for
the Indian Army, Air Force and Navy.
