Make in India is a wonder, Army gets its first suicide drone, know its features

New Delhi : The Indian Army has received its first indigenous man-portable suicide drones. With the arrival of these suicide drones, soldiers can now target the enemy without risking their lives. These drones have been designed to accurately target enemy training camps, launch pads and infiltrators. According to sources, the first batch of Nagastra 1 loitering munitions, also known as suicide drones, has been received by the army. If we look at the specialty of these drones, they also have the ability to attack across the border if needed. The army had ordered the drones using emergency procurement powers.

This drone will definitely increase the tension between Pakistan and China

These suicide drones were ordered to meet the immediate needs during surveillance on both the borders of neighboring countries Pakistan and China. Not only this, within a year of the order, it was handed over to the Indian Army. If we look at the special features of this drone, then it can work even in high altitude areas at high temperatures. These drones, completely designed and developed in India by Economic Explosives Limited (EEL), are capable of hitting the target accurately. Equipped with GPS technology, these drones can target targets up to a range of about 30 km with an accuracy of 2 meters.

Know how Nagastra-1 will work

It has been designed for infantry soldiers. The drone has low noise and electric propulsion which makes it a silent killer. It can be used against many types of soft skin targets. Unlike conventional missiles and precision weapons, this is a low-cost weapon that can be used to target groups of terrorists infiltrating the border. Another special feature of this drone is the parachute recovery mechanism, which can bring back the ammunition if the mission is aborted. In such a situation, it can be used many times.

First indigenously developed man-portable suicide drone

Similar systems are being used extensively in the current conflict. It was also seen especially in the Ukraine-Russia war and the clash between Armenia-Azerbaijan. The Indian armed forces had acquired similar systems from foreign vendors in the first round of emergency purchases, however, at a very high price at that time. More than 75 percent indigenous material has been used in Nagastra 1, which has reduced dependence on foreign sources. Due to this, its cost has come down if we look at the scale of production. This technology can play an important role in the export of ammunition to India’s friendly countries. This is because they are looking for similar solutions. The Indian armed forces have been investing in standoff weapons for the last two years. Some of these can work deep into enemy territory. Our entire focus is on buying all such systems from the domestic industry and avoiding all types of imports.
