A multi-stage interceptor consists of  a solid fuel booster rocket engine, followed by an asymmetric jamming  vehicle with advanced steering gear for super-maneuverability  during the jamming stage.The three-pulse engine provides additional  acceleration and maneuverability in the terminal phase.David Sling was commissioned in April 2017.


The name of David sling comes from the  biblical story of David and Goliath.The sling of David is designed  to strengthen the second level of Israel’s theater of missile defense system.This will form one level of  Israel’s future multi-tier missile defense system that Israel is developing,which will also include Arrow 2, Arrow 3,Iron  Dome and Baraku 8 and Iron Beam as early as 2020.

OHIO CLASS SUBMARINE: ONE OF THE MOST POWERFUL

  the ohio-class boats are the largest submarines ever built for the u.s navy which carry upwards of half of the united states nuclear arsenal on board if you do the math the ohio-class boats may be the most destructive weapon systems created by humankind each of the 170 meter long vessels can carry 24 trident 2 submarine-launched ballistic missiles slpms which can be fired from underwater to strike at targets more than  7 000 miles away depending on the load as a trident 2 re-enters the atmosphere at speeds of up to mach 24 it splits up into 8 independent re-entry vehicles each with a 100 or 475 kiloton nuclear warhead in short a full salvo from an ohio-class submarine which can be launched in less than one minute could unleash up to 192 nuclear warheads to wipe 24 cities off the map this is a nightmarish weapon of the apocalypse

INDIAN NAVY INDUCTS ITS MOST POWERFUL DESTROYER SHIP BUILT TILL DATE

  India has commissioned the INS Visakhapatnam, the lead ship of the Visakhapatnam-class destroyer. The Visakhapatnam-class destroyers, or P-15 Bravo-class, or simply P-15B is a class of guided-missile destroyers currently being built for the Indian Navy. The P-15B destroyers are modified versions of the earlier Kolkata-class destroyers (P-15A). The class consists of four vessels – Visakhapatnam, Mormugao, Imphal and Surat, all four are being built by Mazagon Dock Limited (MDL). Noted for being the largest-ever destroyers built by India, the P-15B class features substantial improvements in design, technology and stealth, over the P-15A class.  The Visakhapatnam-class was designed by the Directorate of Naval Design, the Indian Navy’s premier organization for designing warships. The P-15B retains a significant amount of its hull design, propulsion systems, sensors and ordnance from its predecessor, the Kolkata-class (P-15A), to benefit from serial production. However, the P-15B features

INS DHRUV: INDIA’s EYE IN THE INDIAN OCEAN

  Indian Navy secretly commissioned a huge high-tech surveillance ship. The vessel formerly only known by the code designation VC-11184 is now designated INS Dhruv. With this, India has joined the elite club of nations that has this kind of ship - till now the United States, France, Russia, and China — possessed such ship.According to the reports, the ship would be  operated by India’s technical intelligence agency  NTRO (National Technical Research Organization),   the DRDO (Defense Research and evelopment Organization), and the Indian Navy.The involvement of NTRO, which is a top-tier intelligence-gathering organization indicates that INS Druv has clandestine roles to play. INS Dhruv was was laid down June 2014 under a covered drydock in Visakhapatnam by government-owned Hindustan Shipyards Limited. It is thought to be delivered in 2018 and   completed sea trials the year after. The ship has length of 175 meters which is almost as long as two football fields and has a displacement of
