The HAL-ISRO partnership will further get strengthened in the years to come.
An Integrated Cryogenic Engine Manufacturing Facility (ICMF) will be set-up at HAL’s Aerospace Division here and the division will manufacture cryogenic/semi cryogenic engines for ISRO, said Dr R.K. Tyagi, Chairman, HAL.
Congratulating ISRO for the successful Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM) and prodding of the sleeping engine of the Mars spacecraft back to life and for making it fire briefly, Tyagi said “Our best wishes are with them for tomorrow’s operations that would put the spacecraft in the red planet’s orbit.”
At present discussions with ISRO are already on for Assembly Integration and Testing of IRNSS satellites and for productionisation of propulsion sub-system for spacecraft and launch vehicle projects.
Work packages for the Chandrayan-2 and Reusable Launch Vehicle (RLV) projects are also on the anvil. HAL has partnered and supported ISRO throughout its journey by providing hardware for satellites, SLV, ASLV, PSLV, GSLVMKII and GSLV MKIII (LVM3).
Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah joined Prime Minister Narendra Modi to see the manoeuvres carried out by ISRO scientists, congratulated the Scientists of ISRO for the success of the Mars Orbiter Mission.
In his message, the Chief Minister has said, “We have conquered the Moon! And, now we have approached the Mars!! Yes! After the most successful Chandra Yaan, it is the story of success, again, for Mangal Yaan!”
