The
Integrated Guided Missile Development Programme, now known
better by its abbreviation IGMDP, is perhaps the first
programme in India which brought together a large number of
R&D laboratories, government departments, industries and
academic institutions in the country within an
integrated structure involving all the groups in a functional
network. The Programme was visionary and ambitious, aiming at
the same time, deliveries to the Services as the end goal in a
reasonable time frame. It caught the attention and imagination
of the people with successes and they also shared our
disappointments at failures.
This book chronicles the genesis, progress and
current status of development of the state-of-the-art guided
missiles under the IGMDP. The need for realistic assessments
of technical expertise, manpower, cost and time and the gains
accrued to the country have been emphasized in the book. |
