Answer: IIT Kanpur
Notes: The Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur (IIT-K) has unveiled 'Jigarthanda,' India's first Hypervelocity Expansion Tunnel Test Facility. The 24-meter-long S2 facility, developed over three years, is located at IIT Kanpur’s Hypersonic Experimental Aerodynamics Laboratory. Funded by ARDB, DST, and IIT Kanpur, it can simulate hypersonic conditions with flight speeds between 3-10 km/s. 'Jigarthanda' will play a crucial role in advancing aerospace technologies, supporting missions like Gaganyaan, Reusable Launch Vehicles, and hypersonic cruise missiles for ISRO and DRDO.
