India's Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) has developed the ET-LDHCM, a hypersonic missile under Project Vishnu, capable of reaching speeds up to Mach 8 and a range of 1,500 kilometers. This advancement complements India's ongoing efforts to enhance its defense capabilities. Concurrently, India is advancing its high-speed rail infrastructure with the introduction of next-generation E10 Shinkansen bullet trains, developed in collaboration with Japan. These trains will be deployed on the 508-kilometer Mumbai-Ahmedabad bullet train corridor. The project has recently achieved a breakthrough with the construction of an undersea tunnel, and the first trials of the bullet train track are scheduled for mid-2026. The E10 Shinkansen trains are expected to be the first to run on this route, ahead of India's indigenous Vande Bharat trains. These developments underscore India's strides in both defense technology and high-speed rail connectivity.
