2. PSO Control Modules: The Start valves and Bypass valves supplied by Chakradhara Aerospace served as the nerve center of the PSO stage, ensuring efficient and reliable functionality during the launch sequence.

3. PS1 and PS2: Chakradhara Aerospace's Electrical Actuators and motors were integral to the PS1 and PS2 stages, providing the necessary rotational force for the vehicle's-controlled movement and trajectory adjustments.

4. PS4: The high-precision pressure transducers, Control Modules and Gear Head Motors supplied by Chakradhara Aerospace were essential for monitoring and regulating pressure levels in the PS4 stage, optimizing the efficiency of the propulsion system.
