The advanced Akash-NG missile system is designed to engage a wider range of aerial threats, including subsonic cruise missiles, drones, low-flying aircraft, and UAVs, offering enhanced capabilities over its predecessor.

The 'NG' in Akash-NG stands for 'Next Generation', indicating an upgraded and more advanced version of the Akash missile system.

The Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) is responsible for developing and testing advanced defense systems like the Akash-NG missile.

TROPEX is a tri-service exercise, meaning it involves the Indian Navy, Indian Army, and Indian Air Force to simulate realistic combat scenarios.

TROPEX exercises are designed to test the Indian Navy's operational readiness, war-fighting capabilities, and the synergy between the three services in a complex maritime environment.

TROPEX (Theatre Level Operational Readiness Exercise) is the Indian Navy's flagship tri-service maritime exercise, which concluded in early 2026.

Quantum Advantage refers to the milestone where a quantum computer performs a calculation that is practically impossible for even the most powerful classical supercomputers.

Silicon-based spin qubits are favored in 2026 due to their compatibility with existing semiconductor manufacturing processes.

Logical Qubit Fidelity is the standard for measuring how reliably a quantum computer can perform calculations without errors, a key focus of 2026 research.

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) allows ISRO satellites to capture high-quality images regardless of cloud cover or lack of sunlight, making it essential for 2026 missions.
