India successfully tests fighter ejection system at 800 km/h

India has taken another significant step toward technological autonomy in the military aerospace sector by successfully completing high-speed dynamic tests of its fighter ejection system, carried out at 800 km/h.
The information was released by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO).
The experiments took place at the Rail Track Rocket Sled testing complex, where the cockpit was accelerated to 800 km/h using solid-propellant rocket motors. At the peak of the simulation, the system precisely ejected a dummy pilot, proving the effectiveness of the ejection seat and safety mechanisms.
