India's DRDO Gas Turbine Research Establishment (GTRE) successfully developed its first 350kg thrust-class expendable turbojet engine. This indigenous technology is crucial for platforms like cruise missiles and target drones, reducing import dependence and enhancing capabilities for non-contact kinetic warfare.
India's Army is converting T-72 tanks into remotely operated vehicles using IP-based interfaces for manned-unmanned teaming (MUM-T). The initiative, part of the iDEX Aditi 4.0 challenge, aims to enhance survivability and combat power by deploying these unmanned tanks for high-risk missions, drawing inspiration from global trends in autonomous military technology.
India has successfully tested its long-range hypersonic anti-ship missile (LR-AShM), boasting a strike range exceeding 1,500 km and speeds of Mach 10. This advanced weapon, capable of evading modern defenses and engaging large targets, significantly enhances India's maritime capabilities. The successful flight test marks a major stride in indigenous defense innovation, bolstering national security and self-reliance.
India successfully test-fired a long-range hypersonic anti-ship missile (LR-AShM) off the Odisha coast, achieving a 1,500 km range at speeds up to Mach 10. Developed by DRDO, the indigenous missile enhances India's A2/AD capabilities in the Indian Ocean Region.
