India’s Su-30MKI Fighter Jets Get a Major Boost with Virupaksha AESA Radar Posted on May 21, 2025 | New Delhi By Defence and Technology India is stepping up its air defense game by upgrading its Su-30MKI fighter jets with a cutting-edge radar system called the Virupaksha AESA Radar. Developed by India’s own DRDO, this radar uses advanced Gallium Nitride (GaN) technology to detect and track stealth aircraft—like China’s J-20 and J-35—from long distances. This upgrade is a key part of the Indian Air Force’s plan to keep its fleet battle-ready and counter growing threats in the region. A big boost in Indian defense  What’s Special About the Virupaksha AESA Radar? The Virupaksha radar , developed by DRDO’s Electronics and Radar Development Establishment (LRDE), is a high-tech Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) system. Unlike older radars, it uses thousands of tiny transmit/receive modules (TRMs) to quickly track multiple targets at once. Click Here   Indian Jet Fighter...

What Inspired the Nagas to Take Up Arms? The Journey from NNC to NSCN and Beyond Posted By:  Technology & Defence Team   The story of the Naga insurgency is one of identity, culture, and a fierce desire for self-determination. To understand why the Nagas raised an army and formed multiple armed groups, we need to look at their history, their struggles, and their dreams of sovereignty. Naga National Flag  The Inspiration Behind the Armed Struggle At its core, the motivation for the Naga armed struggle was to protect their unique identity, culture, and ancestral lands. When India gained independence in 1947, the Nagas expected autonomy or even independence based on earlier promises. However, the Indian government integrated the Naga territories into the Union of India without granting the promised rights. Despite their traditional reputation as headhunters — a practice that had declined significantly by the mid-20th century — the Nagas had a strong sense of ethnic pride...
