Wheeled Nishant UAV On Asphalt

I’ve been staring at this picture for whole minutes since I got it a while ago. I don’t know why this feels like the first ever picture I’ve seen of the wheeled Nishant UAV on a tarmac/bay. The Nishant, as it stands of course, doesn’t ever need a tarmac — it is launched using a truck-based mobile hydropneumatic launcher. Did a quick check — this Nishant was towed down the tarmac for a display, and that’s where this photograph was taken. Still, nice. Thanks to PKS for reminding me about where the first wheeled Nishant was displayed.

  1. This is second open source image of Nishant UAV with tri-cycle gear. I recall one of the last AeroIndia's brochures featured a just airborne Nishant with tri-cycle landing gear. Was that one launched from a catapult with tri-cycle landing gear?

    But the common feature of the both the images is poor (pixelated) quality of picture.

  2. Looking at the picture i think trials for Nishant-2 has begun.

    Shiv please update us on the status with special features of this variant.

    Thank you.

  3. seems some body has brought the unused tricycle wheels from their kid's tricyle at thier home to fix "The Taxing Problem"…
