[..The Indian Navy has deployed two more ships, in addition to four, in Palk Bay. These two ships are missile corvettes of the Khukri class that are capable of sailing fast, intercepting and engaging small targets from a distance.
..The navy and the air force are coordinating the setting up of mobile radar units near Rameswaram. The naval air station at Ramnad (Ramanathapuram) is also set to operate Israeli-made Searcher Mark II and Heron pilotless spy planes. The unmanned aerial vehicles are capable of sorties at night. ..The Southern Air Command of the air force, in addition to the deployment of mobile radar stations, has also asked for aerostat balloons - tethered radar systems - that will be deployed along the peninsula.] Look at the resources being put out!!.. (1) Searcher and Heron UAV`s (2) Khukri class missile corvettes (3) mobile radar units near Rameswaram The Indian EL/M-2083 Aerostat Radars have a range of 500km. Once these radars are deployed near the Rameswaram peninsula - with a 500km range, the radars will give blanket coverage of Vanni, Jaffna, and Manner. So technically the Indians can see absolutely anything taking off or landing in that region - the implications!!.. go figure :O) |
