Wrong thread?Successful DRDO test of a Stratospheric Airship in Sheopur, Madhya Pradesh, on May 3, 2025, reaching 17 km altitude for 62 minutes, carrying an instrument payload, with data retrieved for analysis, as per the Ministry of Defence.
Stratospheric airships, operating at 17-22 km altitudes, face mild winds above the jet stream, making them ideal for long-endurance missions like surveillance or communication, a technology pursued globally since the first powered flight in 1969, though few operational prototypes exist.
DRDO's achievement builds on its recent advancements, such as the 1,000-second scramjet engine test in April 2025, showcasing India's growing capability in high-altitude and hypersonic technologies, often competing with systems like Google Loon's high-altitude balloons.
