Drogo Aerospace, Munitions India Join on Indigenous UAV Systems
Drogo Aerospace and Munitions India are working together to build military drones and loitering munitions.
They signed an agreement called a memorandum of understanding.
Drogo will mainly develop the flying drone platforms.
Munitions India will work on explosives, warheads and other munition parts.
The companies will also make sure the drone and munition can work together safely.
They plan to conduct tests and quality checks.
Drogo says its Delta Wing Kamikaze platform was recently tested in Hyderabad.
The platform is designed to find and engage assigned targets, with a planned range of up to 1,000 kilometres and a 20–30 kilogram warhead capacity.
The partnership aims to support authorised Indian defence requirements.
Drogo Aerospace and Munitions India Limited signed an MoU to develop and integrate indigenous UAV and loitering munition systems.
Drogo will design, develop and manufacture UAV platforms and associated empty-payload hardware.
Munitions India will provide expertise in munitions design, explosive systems, payload filling, fuzing and warhead technologies.
The organisations will collaborate on integration, safety evaluation, field and range trials, and quality certification.
Drogo said its Delta Wing Kamikaze platform was recently tested in Hyderabad and is being designed for a range of up to 1,000 km and a 20–30 kg warhead.
