  latest news This mission simulated the approach and landing interface and high-speed landing conditions for a vehicle returning from space, reaffirming Isro’s expertise in acquiring the most critical technologies required for the development of a Reusable Launch Vehicle (RLV). The advanced guidance algorithm catering to longitudinal and lateral plane error corrections, which is essential for the future Orbital Re-entry Mission, has been validated, Isro said in a statement. The RLV-LEX-03 mission reused the winged body and flight systems from the LEX-02 mission, demonstrating the robustness of Isro's capability of design to reuse flight systems for multiple missions. This mission was a collaborative effort involving multiple Isro centers, the Indian Air Force, and other organisations. Isro chairman S Somanath congratulated the team for their efforts in maintaining the success streak in such complex missions. Dr S Unnikrishnan Nair, Director of VSSC, said that this consistent succe
