You forgot the most important contributions: temple remodeling; fake-marriage tourism, conversions, giving kafir titles for Hindus, facilitating sati in Rajastan, innovation in international money transfer, SIMI, IM, etc. Not just India, the whole world is eternally grateful to monomaniacs for improving airport and shopping mall security.

TROLL ALERT!

When Babur invaded India, he was able to overcome the native rulers primarily because his forces had artillery (which he had procured from, i believe, Turkey). India saw artillery for the first time during Babur's invasion.

Mughal Technology

Fathullah Shirazi (1582), a Persian-Indian polymath and mechanical engineer who worked for Akbar the Great in the Mughal Empire, invented the autocannon, the earliest multi-shot gun. As opposed to the polybolos and repeating crossbows used earlier in ancient Greece and China, respectively, Shirazi's rapid-firing gun had multiple gun barrels that fired hand cannons loaded with gunpowder.

The first prefabricated homes and movable structures were invented in 16th century Mughal India by Akbar the Great. These structures were reported by Arif Qandahari in 1579.

Tipu Sultan of Mysore (1783-1799), the Nawab in the south of India, an experimenter with war rockets, invents iron-cased and metal-cylinder rocket artillery. He successfully uses them against British East India Company forces during Anglo-Mysore Wars.

Considered one of the most remarkable feats in metallurgy, the seamless globe and celestial globe were invented in Kashmir by Ali Kashmiri ibn Luqman in 998 AH (1589-90 CE), and twenty other such globes were later produced in Lahore and Kashmir during the Mughal Empire. Before they were rediscovered in the 1980s, it was believed by modern metallurgists to be technically impossible to produce metal globes without any seams, even with modern technology.

In the 1980s, Emilie Savage-Smith discovered several celestial globes without any seams in Lahore and Kashmir.[citation needed] Hollow objects are typically cast in two halves, and Savage-Smith indicates that the casting of a seamless sphere is considered impossible, though techniques such as Rotational molding have been used since at least the '60s to produce similarly seamless spheres.

The earliest seamless globe was invented in Kashmir by the Muslim astronomer and metallurgist Ali Kashmiri ibn Luqman in 1589-90 (AH 998) during Akbar the Great's reign; another was produced in 1659-60 (1070 AH) by Muhammad Salih Tahtawi with Arabic and Sanskrit inscriptions; and the last was produced in Lahore by a Hindu astronomer and metallurgist Lala Balhumal Lahuri in 1842 during Jagatjit Singh Bahadur's reign. 21 such globes were produced, and these remain the only examples of seamless metal globes. These Mughal metallurgists used the method of lost-wax casting in order to produce these globes.[15]
