To be honest , it doesn't look like VSHORAD . May be a different/ new system. I maybe wrong , just my assumptions.Possible VSHORAD launcher under development
Couldn't be anything else though, there is no similar system and only VSHORAD would need such launcher for warshipsTo be honest , it doesn't look like VSHORAD . May be a different/ new system. I maybe wrong , just my assumptions.

The length looks weird. It might go up ..
IDeX projects have assured order value if successful. JSR has over 300+ cr assured order from IAF if their jet powered REK is successful. Prototype development also is funded albeit very low amount.Trials are carried out on NCNC basis and orders are placed only after that. I doubt it's any different for IDEX projects either.
