New Delhi: Brimming with terror threats, India aims to launch a spy satellite to control infiltration and terrorist operations. The satellite to be launched by Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) would primarily keep an eye on India's borders round-the-clock.
The 300-kg radar-imaging spy satellite, which is built by Israel, will be launched on April 20. It is set to blast-off with India's home-grown rocket 'Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) onboard'. "The satellite will be positioned 550 km above the earth, this remote-sensing advanced imaging satellite, has all-weather capabilities, including under cloud cover, a capability that Indian satellites do not have," an anonymous ISRO official told PTI. He also pinpoints that the satellite also has good application in the area of disaster management and in managing cyclones, floods and agriculture-related activities.
The spy satellite, which will primarily be used for used for defense and surveillance, would carry Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) payload, which can take images during day and night.

good news, we want more, maybe a network of satellites with fail over capability, so that, if one fails or other takes over immediately, as well as having multiple' means more than one area at any moment to keep eye on.
Also need to invest more money in Air Force and massive investment in Navy ( nuclear submarines, hope we build it soon ingeniously)
