Indrajaal Ranger Anti-Drone Patrol Vehicle Orders Worth Rs 155 Crore
A company in India has made a special vehicle called the Indrajaal Ranger.
This vehicle is like a guard that watches the sky.
It can find bad drones and stop them.
The vehicle can do this even while driving very fast.
Two companies, Indrajaal Autonomous Defense Systems and Sigma Advanced Systems, are working together.
They got orders worth about 155 crore rupees.
Most of the money, 145 crore rupees, is for protecting India's borders.
The rest, about 10 crore rupees, is for protecting important people in cities.
This shows that India is building its own defence technology.
The leader of Sigma Advanced Systems said this shows India's strength in making defence equipment.
Indrajaal Autonomous Defense Systems and Sigma Advanced Systems announced orders worth approximately Rs 155 crore for the Indrajaal Ranger autonomous defence system from government agencies.
A Rs 145 crore order awarded to the Indrajaal-Sigma consortium will deploy the Ranger system in India's border-security environment.
A separate order worth around Rs 10 crore from the urban police segment will use the Ranger for VVIP protection and urban security applications.
The Indrajaal Ranger is a purpose-built Anti-Drone Patrol Vehicle that can detect, track, identify and counter rogue drones while moving at high speeds.
Sunil Kalidindi, CEO of Sigma Advanced Systems, said the programme showcases the strength of India's defence manufacturing ecosystem.
