| | DISMAL PERFORMANCE OF DRDO |
 | | The DRDO has no excuses for the delay of 22 years and the only plausible reason one could think of is that the end user AHQ kept on revising the Qualitative Requirements (QRs) midstream thus delaying the project. | | | The DRDO should be geared up to execute these projects in a dynamic and integrated manner and there should be accountability at all levels. | | | As there is no integrated management of such projects it is useful to study the role of each agency from the sanctioning authority to producer, to the end user to understand why and how the delays occurred. |

| | DRDO: A stellar success |
| | DRDO's contribution to BrahMos includes the onboard navigation system, onboard computer, electronics, fire control system, software and some parts of the propulsion system. | | | In fact, even though the US imposed sanctions in 1998 could have impaired the Samyuktha project, DRDO scientists overcame the obstacles to develop this state of the art system. | | | Most cutting edge technologies are simply not available in the market while the available technology is prohibitively expensive. |

| | Welcome to DRDO |
| | This interactive programme of the university with DRDO and ISRO is unique and gives the teachers and the students an opportunity to participate in a national programme, and helps them achieve visible and tangible results by using science and technology. | | | The other positive outcome of this programmer is the working together of the faculty among themselves and with DRDO and ISRO scientists with single minded devotion to achieve the goal. | | | For instance, more than 17 projects have been carried out for DRDO. |

| | Amit Sinha, Pittsboro, US DRDO is just a mantelpiece, a pathetic effort by India to play the me-too game with the big powers.More charitably, it’s a copycat effort to follow the US model of arms-driven industrial development. | | | The organisation has a tendency to work in watertight compartments which is why the effects of a system under development on other systems and even subsystems is overlooked. | | | Indian scientists at isro too encountered delays and failures before achieving their goals and are now regarded as the conductors of the best space research programme in the Third World.DRDO too needs time. |

| | The Hindu Business Line : DRDO drive to recruit NRI scientists |
| | RAC is planning to conduct video interviews with willing NRI scientists, in addition to the existing system of evaluating their curriculum vitae, so that relevant challenge can be offered to them, along with the remuneration package, he said. | | | The target is to induct 500-700 scientists, who will beef up the research teams to accelerate development work on the largely funded projects. | | | WITH a slew of challenging research projects under way, the Defence Research & Development Organisation (DRDO), has intensified its recruitment drive, eyeing mainly Non-Resident Indian scientists through an exclusive scheme. |

| | A former DRDO missile scientist said: ``we might have taken 18 years to fine-tune Trishul's technology but we gained a lot of experience and insight.''Trishul forms part of the country's Integrated Guided Missile Development Programme (IGMDP), which was sanctioned on July 26, 1983. | | | A host of complex technologies troubled it and hence none of the three armed forces was able to induct Trishul. | | | This will pave the way for more tests with user participation,'' a DRDO source then said. |

| | What's behind the DRDO bashing? |
| | In fact, it may even be three-quarters full, when one considers how far our scientists and engineers have come since DRDO was set up in 1958. | | | Virtually every report filed in Indian media on the LCA ends up bemoaning the delays in the project, which is conveniently laid at the feet of the DRDO. | | | In summary, the cup is not necessarily half empty when it comes to India's indigenous defence research and development. |

Krishnaswamy, had recently said that though work on developing India's first combat aircraft was ``slow,'' it was ``progressing reasonably well.'' He had suggested that the DRDO conduct a quality review of the project and accelerate flight-testing. |
