The insightful articles, inspiring narrations and analytical perspectives presented by the Editorial Team, establish an alluring connect with the reader. My compliments and best wishes to SP Guide Publications.
"Over the past 60 years, the growth of SP Guide Publications has mirrored the rising stature of Indian Navy. Its well-researched and informative magazines on Defence and Aerospace sector have served to shape an educated opinion of our military personnel, policy makers and the public alike. I wish SP's Publication team continued success, fair winds and following seas in all future endeavour!"
Since, its inception in 1964, SP Guide Publications has consistently demonstrated commitment to high-quality journalism in the aerospace and defence sectors, earning a well-deserved reputation as Asia's largest media house in this domain. I wish SP Guide Publications continued success in its pursuit of excellence.
Dr Prahlada, distinguished scientist and chief controller of aero programmes, Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), Delhi has taken over as the Vice Chancellor of the Defence Institute of Advanced Technology (DIAT) in Pune, a deemed university and an autonomous organisation fully funded by the DRDO.
The DIAT, as it is known today, came into being as the Institute of Armament Studies in 1952 in the CME campus. In 1967, the institute was renamed as Institute of Armament Technology (IAT) which moved to its present location at Girinagar, Pune. From the relatively narrow scope of armament studies alone in the 1950s, the role of the Institute was considerably enlarged by the Defence R&D Council in 1964 and further in 1981.
